We stayed here from 5th May to 12th May with Thomson's, we had a sea view , which was wonderful. We stayed B&B although ate every evening in the Hotel, because the food was so good, the drinks, both in the hotel and the bar, were comparable with the town itself. Breakfast was incredible, so much choice, rolls, cheese, meats,... More

We stayed here during our walking week with the British company HF Holidays. Our group was given rooms in the Santa Catarina section. Our room was large and bright and had a nice balcony. However the sea views were limited due to the large, lovely trees in the active convent grounds just below the hotel. The room was well outfitted... More

Just returned from a fantastic holiday at your beautiful hotel. We were very pleased with the excellent standing of the hotel. The staff is polite and eager to help. The breakfast menu is incredible. The variety of food is beyond words. We will always remember the fresh orance juice every morning and the cappucino...... As far as dinner time is... More

We stayed at the Ariston 5th to 12th May 2013, we were a Thompson's Guest on BB basis. We had a room on the fourth floor overlooking the sea.

We stayed in the Palazzo Santa Caterina portion of the hotel area and were very pleased with the spaciousness of our room. This room included a balcony with seating where we could look down on gardens below us or out above the rooftops to the sea. There is a bit of a hill to go back and forth from the... More

We stayed at this hotel between the 5th and 12th May - a third floor room (326) with balcony and wonderful sea views.The hotel is well located for the centre of taormina, for buses and cable car. The hotel was spotless - rooms were cleaned daily , towels changed as required and bed sheets changed a couple of times each... More

The hotel is 5 minutes walk to a main street of Taormina and exactly to a bus terminal and a cable car. It is important if you want to go to the beach or to make excursions. We took a room with a sea view and a balcony. Don't hesitate to pay for this kind of room! I don't reccomend... More

Just returned from Sicily after a week of sun and rest. The Ariston was the perfect restful place with plenty of lounge and bar space. The pool was quite original with the shallow end having a depth of 2.8 m and the deep end 2.9 m, not for the uncertain swimmer or small children. The hotel is on a hillside... More

Stayed here Summer 2012, sorry for late posting of review but better late than never. I would have normally given this hotel an overall upper three star rating but that isn't possible to record when ticking the stars and a four star rating would not be, in my view justified. Certain aspects of the hotel would definitely justify a higher... More
