Islands | Sicily<br />

Hotel Villa Paradiso<br />

Taormina<br />

This family-run hotel has all the comforts of a stylish home, an<br />

ideal retreat for those who like to mix heritage with a modern<br />

touch. The hotel was one of the first on the island and has been<br />

a pioneering reference for stylish visitors ever since. Truman<br />

Capote, Greta Garbo and Orson Wells have all stayed here!<br />

Hotel Villa Paradiso dates back to 1892 when it was the<br />

Martorana family’s private residence. It was transformed into a<br />

hotel in 1912 by Salvatore Martorana who wanted to keep the<br />

hotel’s famous sense of tradition and architectural features intact.<br />

Perched above Taormina, Sicily’s charming historic centre, the<br />

hotel’s rooftop bar enjoys splendid views of the town, with<br />

the sparkling waves of the Bay of Naxos and Mount Etna in<br />

the background. Taormina’s treasures, including the beautiful<br />

Giardino Pubblico, grand Greek-Roman Theatre and the<br />

impressive Palazzo Corvaja, are just a 10-minute walk away.<br />

Hotel Excelsior Palace<br />

Taormina<br />

The Hotel Excelsior Palace boasts a spectacular setting. The<br />

property is perched on a promontory, which juts out over the<br />

western coastline of Sicily, allowing guests to enjoy unbeatable<br />

views of the Ionian Sea and Mount Etna in the distance.<br />

The hotel gives you a real taste of historic Sicily. It was one of<br />

the first properties to spring up in Taormina when it was built<br />

back in 1904, and is even bordered by the remnants of a Greco-<br />

Roman wall. Landscaped gardens encircle the hotel building,<br />

giving the whole place a tranquil feel. Orange, almond and carob<br />

trees line the terraced walkways which lead down to the pool,<br />

while tall pines offer plenty of shady spots. The pool itself sits at<br />

the bottom of 92 steps, and comes with panoramic sea views.<br />
