Orpheus

Aamiainen oli monipuolinen ja runsas. Henkilöstö erittäin ystävällistä. Meren kohinaan oli autuaallista nukahtaa iltaisin ja herätä aamuisin.

Huoneet olivat erittäin siistejä puhtausmielessä, mutta niitä leimasi jo jossain määrin "ajan kuluminen" eli uudistaminen varmaankin tulee piakkoin ajankohtaiseksi.

Close but quiet.

There was no swimming pool or jacuzzi.

Hamid, Rosa and family made our stay so good that we didn’t want to leave. Orpheus is on our “return to and recommend lists”. Why? The best location.....set on an outcrop of lava rock there are views from everywhere. The lights of Taormina and Castelmola glisten from one direction and the sight of Mount Etna smoking in the distance is clear from another. All can be viewed simultaneously from the rooftop terrace and the breakfast deck. Breakfast.....wow! An array of sweet and savoury delights, eggs and coffee to order and just ask for anything that appears missing. That really is hospitality at its best. We needed to do some laundry.....another surprise.....Rosa took the laundry and presented it back beautifully washed and ironed. The rooms were large and I loved the decor. Common areas had occasional couches and chairs in a very homely style. Great restaurants aplenty could be found from 20m away with tourist buses outside the door. I could continue but you should definitely add it to your list of places to stay. I’m so glad that Taormina couldn’t accommodate us within the budget. This is an incredible value for money find.

There was nothing to dislike.

This hotel is authentic and personal, unlike a larger chain hotel. The views are to die for and we were lulled to sleep by the sound of the sea. The room was extremely clean, breakfast good and the staff very friendly and helpful. Loved it.

Nothing. Shower cubicle small but would stay in this hotel again and again.
