I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel, it was sad to leave. The view from the sea view rooms is stunning. The hotel itself has old school Italian charm so expect the rooms to be dated but very clean. The only flaw I had was my shower head fixture was broken. The recently refurbished pool is modern and spacious, I never had an issue getting a sunbed. The staff were so helpful and friendly, I hope to be back someday soon!

Great place for few days. Location is brilliant. Hotel staff very friendly. Hotel decent and pool not in use due to pool area works/renovation. and that made us go to the beach, which is good and walkable by steps and took cable car back. We had cheapest room. But due to the water spillage of gardener on balcony we've got upgraded to the larger room and that was brilliant. Spectacular views, spacious and classic quality furniture. Hotel needs some upgrades, but still decent. they seem to be renovating and may have suffered from Covid challenges. It takes time and of course paying customers. Many feedbacks I read are bit harch and unfair. Give them a chance! If in the larger room you will get spectacular views. Thanks

Booked property months in advance for a July stay. At the time of booking, the website stated that the pool was going to be unavailable in May and June. Unfortunately when we checked in we were informed that the pool was still being renovated (and by the looks of it it is still very far from being ready...). Property offers beautiful ocean views and staff is very kind, but it's in dire need of a remodeling.

The view was great and the breakfast was fine, but the rooms are outdated and has a very odd smell that wouldn’t go away, and the loudest air conditioner box that never cooled the room properly just sounded like a train on tracks all night long. The pillows were flat and the bed was excessively hard. I would spend the extra money and go elsewhere as this was not a cheap location.

The Grand hotel is no longer Grand
Our stay was very nice, hotel convenient but it needs to be kept cleaner. Hallways were not so clean, shower was in the bathtub so very inconvenient for older people. We were beneath the dining room, so chairs were being pulled out from tables making the room noisy. The breakfast was very satisfying. The staff were friendly and helpful. Just the hotel cannot be considered a “Grand” hotel. That era has passed

Hotel Miramare provides beautiful views of the coast of Taormina. Very close to sights, shopping and restaurants. The room was somewhat old-fashioned, but nice. However, there was a funny smell on the floor where we were staying.

Not 4 star hotel.
This is an old hotel in need of serious updating. The view is 4 stars. Note that access to the pool is many many flights of stairs down.

Our stay at this 4 star hotel was toward the end of our six week vacation through Europe. We booked 4 star hotels at every location with the exception of an apartment in Dubrovnik. This was by far the worst of all hotels we stayed at. We checked in after dark, we found garbage in the bathroom waste basket and an empty bottle on the patio via moonlight as there are no lights for the balcony. On our way to dinner we complained to the front desk, we returned to find trash had been emptied. The following morning we found the room filthy, I took pictures and once again complained to the front desk as well as delivering them an opened bottle of water we found in the mini fridge. Again when we returned the room was cleaned. We understand the age of the building and the history of the area that does not constitute uncleanliness and feeling like it’s unsanitary. I’m not sure if this is something that needs to be addressed or not but I found it odd that we didn’t turn on the TV but there was a red light on on the bottom left it made me feel uncomfortable so I threw a shirt over it, after our complaints and room cleaned the following two nights the light was no longer lit. The breakfast and staff was good, on site parking and the location of the hotel are the best parts of this hotel.
