Hotel Villa Schuler

We have hesitated before selecting this hotel. It is not cheap, and we like to have a sea view but selected the last room available on the garden side. And we liked it very much as there is a view on a real beautiful garden. The people are very nice, helpful and professional. We loved the breakfast on the terrasse with sea view: many choices a la carte and you can select as much as you want. We recommend the home cakes. Good point to offer a bottle of water in your room every day.

We loved this hotel so much, we extended our stay. We stayed in the Garden Suite for 10 days. The room was so private, quiet and peaceful yet only a 3 minute walk through a gorgeous garden to all the shops, restaurants and crowds of Taormina. I cannot say enough about the amazing staff here. All so kind, helpful, and always available to us. Breakfast is substantial offering cereals, yogurts, breads and croissants, eggs to order, fresh cheeses, fresh squeezed blood orange juice, Italian and American coffee and fresh fruits. All this while eating your breakfast with an amazing view of the turquoise sea and Mt. Etna looming in the background. There is also a rooftop area with loungers and an amazing view. Drinks are served upon request. The private garden space is something to see with amazing plants, flowers, fruit trees and a fish pond. Tables and chairs are available in the garden for peace,quiet and conversation. As a travel industry veteran and owners of our own boutique travel agency, this hotel is an unexpected find. So much so, we have already made reservations to come back and I will most confidently recommend this hotel to our clients coming to Taormina. Lastly, it would be unfair of me to submit this review without special and heartfelt thanks to the amazing staff of this hotel. Simona, Marieangela, Elena and all the rest who exemplify the epitome of excellent customer service, Marco who took care of our luggage and made the best Aperol Spritz, Rosita, Luca and Evgenya who made our breakfast every morning a delight with a bright Sicilian smile, excellent service and fulfilled all our breakfast wants within reason even if it wasn’t on the menu. We appreciate all your hard work and your willingness to please and we look forward to returning again in the fall. Grazie mille a tutti! Abbracci!

The most incredible hotel! Truly charming, exceptional staff, generous and delicious breakfast and the most breath taking views. We stayed for three nights in an ocean view bedroom, and we loved every moment. The hotel was so elegant, and had so much Sicilian craft with a feel of the Grand Tour and historical prestige. The staff were so welcoming, helpful and smiling. We would love to visit again in the future. Highly recommended!

First of all, excellent location. A few steps away from the Main Street and main attractions of Taormina. Second of all, the room was amazing, with an amazing view, clean, even the small detail of the light up bathroom window was on point to the whole style of a well kept villa in a modern customized way, respecting all its glory and beauty of the past days. A beautiful garden and a beautiful terrazza for breakfast. The breakfast even though it was charged extra, everything was fresh and there were many options. Also, with extra charge was the private parking, but we arrived with the car directly to the hotel, and we were feeling safe as to where we were leaving our car. The stuff was also very helpful, with everything about the hotel but also with restaurant recommendations and general information about Taormina. Last but definitely not least, our favourite member of the stuff was Marco. Always with the smile, he was the one to welcome us and to say goodbye to us, to help us carry our luggage in and out of the hotel, and he is also a barman, a waiter and always around to help. He reminded it is of the lobby boy from the movie “The Grand Budapest Hotel” and we mean it in the most respectful way possible, the one that anticipated the client’s needs. Thank you for the experience.

Wonderful location close to everything in Taormina and overlooking the sea. You do have walk up quite a few steps to get to most of the shops and restaurants, but it was not that difficult. The staff is friendly, helpful and excellent overall. The only downside for us (and the only reason it's rated 4 instead of 5) is the ridiculously small bathroom and shower. I'm talking cruise- ship sized small. But overall a great experience.

Great find in the center of Taormina! By car it was a little difficult to find as there was a sign that we were not allowed to enter a street.. it said trafico limitado. We called the hotel and they informed us it was ok to drive in as we had a reservation, thanks for the advise. Anyway, lovely place 1 minute walk to the main street. Beautiful garden, nice terrace, great staff and a safe parking place, very rare in the center. Room was nice, great bed, a massage shower that we did not need and did not work too well either. Definitely recommended!

One of the best hotels I've stayed in. From the location, to the hotel's layout and characterful rooms, to the beautiful garden and sea views, I highly recommend this hotel for anyone visiting Taormina. Enjoy breakfast on the terrace and try out the hotel's strawberry granita - it's delicious, as is their apricot jam, which I bought to bring home as it was too good. The hotel's staff are very nice and it's well located to access all the key sites in Taormina as long as you like walking. There's steps leading up to the hotel and leading up to the main tourist pedestrian area - but it's a beautiful stroll. I highly recommended this hotel. I had a great stay.

We had our wedding at Villa Schuler. We are from Denmark but got engaged in Taormina so it was our wish to get married there also. Claudia who was the manager went way beyond our expectations - she made sure we had a perfect day and took care of everything! We planned the wedding a year in advance and it was always easy to reach her, which was super helpful because she helped us to fix a photographer, hair and make up etc. We had 3 course menu which we could choose ourselves and the food and service was very good. All in all, We had such a great wedding. I can only recommend for anyone who wishes to get married in Taormina.

I never write reviews but this hotel went BEYOND our expectations. The employees are amazing, the location couldn’t be any better, the grounds and views are STUNNING. I don’t have any complaints at all. This hotel made Taormina even greater than I thought my trip would be
