We had a lovely stay at Villa Sonia. Could not recommend this hotel enough. The hotel was spotless, very large room (we booked the double with Etna views) Breakfast and hotel bar service was fab. Amazing location for exploring Castelmola and Taormina. A handy bus service operates throughout the day, just outside the hotel €3 return to Taormina centre (10/15 min journey) The hotel staff could not have been more friendly and really went out their way to make sure we had a good stay. Highly recommend the restaurant associated to the hotel a short walk up the road. A fabulous hotel for exploring the nearby sights or for relaxing and soaking up the sun (the pool area always had loungers free to use and was super clean/ tidy) Thanks for having us, we will most definitely be back! 😊

We stayed here for 2 nights and we wish we could have stayed longer. The view from our terrace was beautiful - it overlooked Mount Etna and the surrounding hills. Room was spacious and rustic, which made it feel authentic. All staff at the hotel were lovely and friendly. Breakfast was great and they had such a good choice of fresh food. The pool area was a nice touch - it was great getting in the pool after a long day in the sun. Would happily stay here again and would recommend this place to anyone!

Just a wonderful property. Great service from the staff. All very friendly and accommodating to your needs. Property is very clean. The breakfast was very good every day. It’s a short walk up to Castelmola which has some excellent restaurants and breathtaking landscape and shops. Grab a short bus ride into Taormina right outside of the hotel also. We would definitely stay at this property again.

The hotel is situated just below the village of Castelmola. It is a small & quirky hotel with lots of antique furniture & artifacts. All the staff were very helpful & pleasant. The views of Mt Etna from the hotel were breath taking. All areas of the hotel were clean.

Castelmola is on a steep hilltop so driving there is tricky due to very curvy roads. It is quite far from Taormina. The hotel provides limited shuttle service down to Taormina. Otherwise you can take a public bus that runs hourly. The little town of Castelmola is quite cute. The hotel is on the old side but they provide breakfast and the views of the mountains and Etna are excellent. Not the place to be if you are expecting the beach or Taormina.
