Beautiful hotel with exceptional food and wonderful staff.
2-night trip

10/10

This is it! The very best place to stay in Taormina with breathtaking views, amazing service and the most hospitable staff that treated us like VIP’s( Thank you Santina!). I highly recommend this hotel and look forward to going back to enjoy the perfect Sicilian holiday. They took care of our car and parked it safely away during our time in Taormina. We took advantage of the convenient shuttle up and down to the town center(5 minutes away). The view and experience at this hotel is what one dreams about and Villa Ducale delivers it all the way. Stop searching- this is it!!! Complimenti to the staff who made us feel like family and very special. We had an amazing room with a terrace where we enjoyed our lunch- the food was delicious. Every morning the breakfasts were so wonderful- Max always gives you service with his charm! It was hard to leave but we will definitely go back whenever we go back to Taormina!
We never wanted to leave

We had a wonderful time at this home away from home. The staff were the most welcoming and warm that we have ever encountered, and showed superb hospitality at every aspect of our stay. The hotel was also very accommodating to celiac disease/gluten free diet, along with delicious food otherwise! Could not recommend Hotel Villa Ducale more!

Extremely welcoming & helpful staff. Reception desk are great at recommending excursions and making restaurant bookings. The shuttle bus to and from Taormina is very efficient. Although the 600 steps path is highly recommended once, for the views. And all the views from the hotel are out of this world.

Absolutely magnificent. The property, the staff from front desk to dining to the gent who drove the shuttle bus were so incredibly friendly and hospitable. Could not be more happy with the stay.
3-night trip

10/10

This was hands down our best European hotel experience. We were treated like royalty from the moment we arrived and our luggage was taken care of immediately, to the relaxed check in process and before check out we were offered to stay later (evening flight) and continue to enjoy the hotel amenities (including a changing room shower). The breakfasts was delicious, staff extremely courteous and helpful. Our room was cleaned daily and the beds were made again even when we just stepped out for a few hours. Everyone was extremely professional, took pride in their work and seemed to truly enjoy it. We cannot wait to go back. Grazie!!!
