Central and great staff
Great location, great staff..
It could use some maintenance in the pool area and the elevator wasn’t working
But we had a great time. I recommend booking a room with balcony in the upper floor.

Our stay at the Hotel II Piccolo Giardino was wonderful. It is conveniently located in the heart of Taormina. Breakfasts were delicious and we ate them every morning in their outside terrace area. Vincenzo was extremely helpful before and during our stay.

Clean and comfortable room. Ideal location, just a block off Corso Umberto and a short walk to the Teatro Antico di Taormina. Breakfast was very good and the views from the fourth floor were amazing. The front desk attendants were very helpful and service was overall great.
