We were aware that Hotel Villa Greta was for us a budget compromise as we had expected to be at the hotel for the minimum amount of time during our stay at Taormina & was the least expensive of the 5 places we had pre-booked for our tour of Sicily. Even taking into account the rates the hotel fell way... More

Our welcome wasn't ideal it lasted LITERALLY about 30 seconds - basically, here's your key, here's your room and he was off. Within the handbook it read "hot water at the discretion of the management" which made us laugh but came true on day 2 when the hot water ran out around 6pm - so take an early shower! It... More

Jaw dropping views from the dining room,and the balconies of the bed rooms.Food is very good,but one should leave yourself free to try out some of the other eateries in the town ,way below you.Very friendly staff,clean rooms,no fridge to cool your water.A many stepped hotel with limited perking.GPS vital,otherwise a grand tour of Taormina is on.

The price was so good that we didnt expect the very pleasant experience that we had. Yes it is a hike to get to and we actually climbed up the old track from the station to the town before we went up to the hotel. It keeps you fit and develops the appetite if you are up to it.The view... More

Treated very well by very nice owners and staff. (Family opporated) Very quaint, older gem of a place. A fair walk to centre due to all the stairs but there is a shuttle bus at the front door for those who don't need to excercise. Restaurant and service was very good. The view of the gulf and Mt. Etna was... More

The best part of this hotel is the view from the restaurant and the rooms. You need a car to stay here. The walk to town is easy down hill, but coming back it is not easy. Part of the charm is the unusual construction on the B&B perched on the hill. Rooms are small especially if you book for... More

The room furnishings are dated but clean and roomy (ours was a "superior double"). No in-room ammenities aside from a tiny TV (who cares?), a hair dryrer, soap, shampoo, towels, linens, pillows (xtra pillows and linens in the closet). A small balcony that provides a wonderful view overlooking Taoromina, the bay, and Etna. Free bus service takes you to the... More

The hotel is really run down, the food is bad and there is basically no service. I cannot recommend this hotel at all.

The room was not very clean and the bed falling apart. The shower was so small you almost cannot enter and the shower handle was broken. The first evening there was no hot water at all. The breakfast was very poor and small- No glass was available in the room. Service was ok but nothing particular.
