A really nice family run hotel, in good walking distance of Taormina's main town (although be warned, the hotel is at the top of a fairly steep hill, so you need at least a basic level of fitness). Although the rooms are basic (some showers don't even have a door and the rooms could do with a little modernisation), they... more

The superb views of Etna was the big plus for staying at this hotel. Rooms were small and dated, bathroom tiny, smelled of drains and had the smallest shower I've ever been in ! Good secure garage for hire car (5e per day), but with awkward access from street. Many tour groups use hotel, poor breakfast and abrupt serving wench... more

It was ok, in great need of modernisation as i would imagine are most hotels here. Breakfast was minimal!! Breakfast girl was quite rude and abrupt, as was the hotel owner towards the end of my stay. Rooms were ok, quite small, views however were lovely. Air con was great for cooling the room but this went off during the... more

Maybe after reading all the glowing reviews on Tripadvisor about the Hotel Villa Kristina, my expectations were just too high, so I have to say I found it disappointing. Firstly finding the place, if you have hired a car and are driving yourselves, is a challenge to say the least! The map the hotel sent was as good as useless... more

Great value family hotel. Friendly staff (with the exception of the breakfast girl who was, we hope, just having a bad week). Beautiful view of Etna from our balcony although not very private ( could have done with a screen on either side of us ). Relatively short walk to centre so long as you don't mind steps. Clean but... more

we booked this hotel because of the price and we were thrilled about all aspects of our stay. The breakfast was great, pool area clean and sun loungers comfortable. The bar and snacks very reasonable. Taormina is a beautiful place and we will be going back. more
