My experience was stunning. We started with an aperitif on the rooftop, the view is gorgeous and the staff was extremely attentive and informative. I asked for a sweet cocktail and the bar lady was able to clearly guide me through the menu. After our aperitif, we moved down to their Monsu restaurant. It is located in a big veranda surrounded by plants and great atmosphere. Their menu looks full of variety in between fish, meat and veggies options. I could not imagine there was a gem hidden in Taormina. Highly recommend. Thanks to Giuseppe and Armando at the restaurant, Samuele, the barman and the bar lady. They took very good care of us.

Palazzo Vecchio Taormina is a true gem of a boutique luxury hotel. I stayed from 27–29 December, and every detail stood out—from the exceptional quality of the bedding and beautiful upholstery fabrics to the perfectly designed lighting and genuinely warm, attentive service. The dining experience is outstanding: the waiters, sommelier, and chefs show remarkable kindness and deep knowledge of local cuisine and Sicilian wines. The broken spaghetti with lobster soup is an absolute must. A refined, intimate hotel that truly understands luxury through details.

We absolutely loved our stay at Palazzo Vecchio! We stayed in a Sea View Deluxe Junior Suite, and waking up to that breathtaking view each morning was pure magic. The hotel is beautiful, stylish, and perfectly located right in the heart of Taormina’s old town. What truly made Palazzo Vecchio exceptional, was the people ! Claudio and Miriam are the heart and soul of the hotel — warm, attentive, and always ready to help. Then there’s the incredible bar team — Andrea and Samuele — who are simply the best company you could ask for. Between sips of your favourite drink and gazing out over the stunning views of Taormina, make sure to take time to chat with them. Their endless stories about Sicilian culture, local life, and hidden gems are amazing — don’t waste money on a tour, enjoy the cocktails, the view, and the conversation with locals ! The roof bar has the best views in Taormina, and the restaurant serves some of the best meals in the area. We can't wait to go back!

From the moment you arrive, you know this is a special place. Located off of the main pedestrian street and up a staircase is the Palazzo Vecchio. This historic building is reflected in the 12 beautifully decorated rooms and suites. Deluxe Junior Suite Seaview 402 was where I stayed. It was designed in a Moroccan theme reminiscent of many of the Arabian architectural influences in Taormina. The room was very clean and all of the light switches and outlets were easy to locate and in working order. Good hair dryer. Deep soaking tub and shower. There was even a ceiling fan in addition to a good working air conditioner. The sheets were to die for. So soft and luxurious. The service in Monsu Restaurant and the Blue Sky Lounge were outstanding throughout the two night stay. Very attentive wait staff and front desk staff are there to make your stay memorable and worry free. You may even run into the hotel owner who is a kind, gracious man. Thank you Stefano, Miriam and Claudio for your warm hospitality. I hope to return again one day!

One of the most amazing hotels right off the main street in Taormina. It is a very high end boutique hotel with one exceptional staff. You feel right at home and welcomed when checking in. I can't say enough about the beautifully decorated rooms. The views are exquisite over the ocean. They have a super cool rooftop bar which makes the BEST cocktails! I would visit this hotel again and will definitely recommend it to others!

We had such a wonderful stay at Palazzo Vecchio! The location couldn’t be better – right in the heart of Taormina, walking distance to the cable car to the beach. The vibe is pure old-school luxury (which I absolutely loved), and it felt like a real treat to experience the city from such a charming spot. The staff were fantastic – so kind and attentive – and breakfast was a highlight: served à la carte, with classical music setting the mood. Our room was always sparkling clean, and the rooftop was the perfect place to unwind with cocktails and stunning views over the city. All in all, we loved every minute of our stay. Palazzo Vecchio is full of character, and it made our Taormina trip even more special! P.S. For those reviewers complaining about the steps – it’s really nothing. Our 22-month-old managed them almost daily (unless she was asleep, of course 😉).
