Hotel Villa Schuler - Hotel in Sicily
Piazzetta Bastione
Via Roma, 98039 Taormina, Messina
Sicily,
Italia
This lovely hotel has elegant charm and a relaxed, peaceful atmosphere - once through the gates the bustle of Taormina is behind you. Sitting pretty among the palms, citrus trees and subtropical planting, this feels more like a private garden retreat than an urban hotel. Family run since 1905 it has welcomed generations of guests with a gracious, unhurried style. Linger over an a la carte breakfast while you enjoy views across the Bay of Naxos, wander the botanical gardens, breathe in the scent of jasmine and citrus blossom.
Bedrooms vary in size and character, most have a private balcony, loggia or terrace looking over the gardens or the sea. Some have high ceilings and original-style cement tiles, while the Junior Suites have a lighter, airy feel with sun-drenched terraces. Find excellent orthopaedic beds, hypoallergenic duvets and a choice of pillows. Bathrooms come with generous rain showers or whirlpool baths.
In the evenings you can sit on a quiet terrace sipping an aperitivo as the light shifts over Mount Etna. The pace is slow and the views are unforgettable.
