Hotel Villa Ducale

our stay here was amazing, we arrived very late and jet lagged and the entire front desk staff made sure we felt comfortable. the nice gifts of local hand soap and the beautiful straw bag was a nice touch. massimo at the restaurant was hands down the best

The hotel was everything we had hoped for. Located higher in the hills away from the very busy centre of Taormina, with fantastic views of Etna and the coastline. The restaurant was excellent. As was the food. You have to try the piglet special. All the staff were wonderful (especially Max!). We stayed Read more[SPLIT]Read lessin Villa 21 and it was spacious and private, with those great views and its own little outdoor area. And the free (Mercedes) shuttle service to and from the centre was a great bonus.

Lovely restaurant with fantastic views over Taormina, great food and really nice wine list.

By Justin Jul ’23 Trip Type Couple

The staff were all superb - very helpful, polite (and remember your name!). The room was wonderful - with spectacular views down to Taormina and of Mount Etna. My suggestions to make things even better: improve the lunch offerings and, at breakfast, keep the hot things hot (eggs etc) and the cold things Read more[SPLIT]Read lesscold (juices, milk and yoghurts) as this was rarely the case.

Quiet, immaculate and comfortable.Beautiful sunrises and views of Etna. Staff was beyond amazing.

Incredible views from hotel and room. Excellent service from charming staff. Complementary transport to town centre. Good food and wine selection. Only disappointment was size and position of pool. Despite this we would highly recomend this hotel.

We loved Villa Ducale and will certainly go back! It is high on the hill over Taormina with magical views of Mount Etna and the sea. The staff were lovely, arranging a small breakfast for us even with a 630am departure. The food was exquisite, we ended up eating at the hotel much more than planned as Read more[SPLIT]Read lessa result. The bedrooms were lovely too, filled with little details that make such a difference (flip flops, toothpaste and high quality toiletries). If I have anything to criticise (very mildly), it would perhaps that the pool and deck areas might need an upgrade, but really this place is so fantastic I am struggling to find anything to balance the review! I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Our stay was most lovely, by far best breakfast in Italy, knowledgeable staff who have great local restaurants and insights and stunning views. We would stay again, however important to note that our superior /deluxe room was very very small, literally just room for the bed, and while the locations says Read more[SPLIT]Read lessTaormina you are at least a 20 min walk to Taormina, it is closer to Castlemona than Taormina and while the shuttle is great, frequent and easy to use, you are not in the town itself.

Our villa suite was superb. An apartment actually

We were overwhelmed with the views and just as impressed by the hotel staff.

By Ron Apr ’22 Trip Type Couple

The staff was very pleasant and helpful. Very welcoming and beautiful villa. It's a great hike to Castlemola and long but beautiful walk to the centre. The shuttle service was good. Very welcoming stay. Thanks to all the staff for making our stay in Taormina so special.

Everyone was so helpful and friendly. Nice to be able to relax and enjoy such beautiful scenery. Food was delicious!

Best views in Taormina are the setting of an exquisite, yet so homey display of everything what an experience away from home should be like. I did not want to leave Hotel Villa Ducale even after 7 days because I felt at home. Focused on delivering the highest quality in everything, the warmth of the Read more[SPLIT]Read lessknowledgeable staff made me want to return for more of the welcoming feel and ambiance, quality of the rooms, attention to detail, a generous breakfast of local foods, fun bar and food menu. The best of everything.
