Looks great from the outside but a different story inside!
We booked into this hotel as part of a group of 25 fellow travellers for the last five days of a tour of the island. The room we were shown into was a twin room on the ground floor. Nothing special but ok if a little tired. Unfortunately things began to unravel once we used the shower which was above a bath. Within seconds of turning it on the water the floor became flooded due to a leaking shower… We booked into this hotel as part of a group of 25 fellow travellers for the last five days of a tour of the island.

Taormina is fantastic!
I would like to start this review by saying that this holiday as a whole was a 5 star experience! Taormina is an absolutely amazing place - probably my favourite destination. The hotel is good and ideally located but it just fell short of a 4 star experience for me. Don’t get me wrong it is perfectly acceptable with many positives but there were a few niggles.The Hotel.A very impressive structure… I would like to start this review by saying that this holiday as a whole was a 5 star experience!

The four-star rating is completely undeserved.”
So we booked the room from 7. August till 10.August in Excelsior Pallace hotel. Due to mount Etna eruption our flight was cancelled and we came one day later. We called the hotel and gave them notice about situation. The hotel gave our room to somebody else but that didnt stop them to charge us for that night. When we arrived the day after we got another room without balcony. On the 10.august we r… So we booked the room from 7. August till 10.August in Excelsior Pallace hotel.
