About the Hotel
Splendid Hotel Taormina stands on Via Dietro Cappuccini above the terraced gardens that cascade toward the Ionian Sea, offering an outdoor pool, restaurant, poolside bar, piano and a generous terrace with the distinctive double view — blue sea in front, the volcanic mass of Mount Etna (3,357 m) behind — that has defined Taormina's reputation since the era of the Grand Tour.
The Greek-Roman Teatro Antico, one of the best-preserved ancient theatres in the world and Taormina's greatest monument, is reachable on foot in minutes. The Corso Umberto, lined with baroque palaces, ceramic boutiques and the Piazza IX Aprile belvedere, runs through the heart of the old town. Isola Bella, the small nature reserve island joined to the mainland by a pebble spit and backed by a clear Ionian cove, is the nearest beach. The hotel arranges boat tours and day excursions to the Etna craters. Splendid Hotel Taormina offers a polished Sicilian base for travellers who appreciate history, scenery and authentic Mediterranean warmth.
