Overall Ratings & Reviews Hotel Villino Gallodoro

Central to beaches and trolley

Beautiful area, great breakfast

We stayed 2 nights- off season, January. The room (double/sea view) is quite small but the high ceiling made it feel bigger. The TV is rather small (likely 17”). 2 bottles of water were provided along with a few packets of English tea bags. There is a fridge. The air conditioner worked well. The bed is a bit hard but no too uncomfortable. I loved that it is pitch black when all the windows are closed. The shower is made for a small framed person. The towels are not soft but smelled and looked clean. Our room came with a semi private and very nice balcony which opens to a great sea view to catch the beautiful sunrise and sunset. Finding a good place to eat is a 10 minute drive to the town of Taormina. It was a little hair raising experience for me as a passenger seeing the car coming into our lane on the twisty/hairpin turns to the town at night but I would not recommend eating at the hotel’s restaurant; it was one of the worst pizza and pasta I’ve had, here in Italy as well as the US. I think you’re better off stopping at a gas station and pick up food there. Parking is a bit tight even in a compact car. There are 7 spots available but they are made for compact or mini cars. There are 2 staff (at check in and lunch/dinner) we interacted both were very pleasant. I am not surprised that the hotel is rated 1 ⭐️ for its amenities. Conveniently a short walking distance to Isola Bella. It has a lot of potential to be better.

Staff was not helpful. Room was not comfortable. Bathroom was outdated and had no amenities. Of all places we stayed in Sicily, this is the only one we would not recommend.

I don't recommend this hotel

We absolutely loved our stay in this hotel. Staff was incredible friendly and made us feel very welcomed. We had such a unique room that had 2 floors (bathroom on the bottom floor, sleeps 4 in total, and a small private outdoor sitting area). We had easy outdoor access to our room, steps away from the Hotel's own restaurant which was lovely and was an very convenient. The hotel is also 5 minute walk down a few steps to a beach and also 5 minute walk to the gondola that brings you up to the Taormina city center. Loved our stay and would absolute stay here again in future!

The staff and breakfast were great. Highly recommend.

Great location, beautiful views. Clean room

Had a great stay! Our flight was delayed and they were super helpful and communicative. Amazing location above Mazzaro with a short walk down to the beach and a couple of minutes walk from the cable car. Happy we stayed in Mazzaro as it was sleepy compared to packed Taormina. Thanks Gallodoro!

👍

Fantastic location! Our shower shut off on us several times during our stay, and the water pressure was poor when it WAS working. Other than that, a great experience!

Beautiful terrace for breakfast. Exceptional staff. 5 min- walk to beach and 2 min to the cable car to Taormina. Small, very basic rooms.

Loved it! Great location with only a 2 minute walk to the cable car to take you up to Taormina old town. 5 minute walk to Isola Belle beach. Clean and comfy room (beds are on the hard side). Really nice staff and a great buffet breakfast on the balcony looking over the bay. Would highly recommend.

Helpful staff and clean rooms. Close to beach and cable car and bus stop for Taormina.

Great location and excellent pizza

Great view and a restaurant

Great view and nearly attractions.

Perfect position! Friendly and helpful staff!

The staff is very nice, especially Helena at the front desk, she really was so very kind and helpful.

Reception staff very friendly helpful and knowledgeable. Accommodation did not live up to the description of "superior triple room". Three adults in one small room. Description of i double bed and 1 twin bed, the twin bed was a sofa bed and an underneath pull out bed which made even less room.
