The hotel itself is absolutely stunning, in a perfect location for both views and connivence with the town. The room was incredibly comfy and the turn down service every day made it a joy to stay in. But what truly makes this hotel is the staff, they were so attentive and always wanted to make the stay as special as possible. My partner and I will be returning each year!

VIEW VIEW VIEW. Crazy drive up to the hotel and strongly recommend you valet your car if you are driving, but worth the effort. Staff are just beautiful, so welcoming and helpful, and did I mention the views? We had a wonderful two days here in a suite with a small terrace. Room was a bit tired, but very comfortable. The free soft drinks etc in the mini bar is a lovely and appreciated touch. The common areas of the hotel are just beautiful, with many spots to sit and enjoy the view. We had a delicious dinner there and breakfast was also good. Highly recommend this hotel if you are coming to Taormina. Thank you especially to Julianna.

This past September my husband and I stayed at Hotel Villa Ducale after staying at their sister hotel: Villa Carlotta which are both part of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World. We loved experiencing staying above Taormina with incredible views of the Mediterranean Sea and Mt. Etna. Hotel Villa Ducal was originally aristocratic family home. Such a magical luxury boutique hotel. We have stayed at Hotel Villa Carlotta the past four visits to Taormina Sicily and always have eaten at Villa Ducale so to actually stay was such a treat ! The room we stayed decorated with every detail with a fabulous large Italian marble bathroom And luxury bedding. We had a lovely terraced balcony with panoramic views of the Bay of Naxos, the town of Taormina. Absolutely breathtaking. The gracious owners Andrea and Rosaria Quartucci and their staff made our stay perfect in every way. Dining was fantastic from the Sicilian buffet breakfast to the cocktail hour watching the sunset to the incredible dinners with candlelit tables. Thank you for taking care of our every need. A special thank you Rosaria and to your staff: Daria, Simon, Chef Santina, Super Max and Chef Freddy

This beautiful, boutique hotel cannot do enough to make your stay extraordinary! The staff are so friendly and can help you get the best from Taormina. And the restaurant with its view of Mt Etna is a delight for the most discerning foodie. Go, you won’t regret it!

The perfect location with views of Mount Etna and overlooking Taormina & the Bay of Naxos. Superb bedrooms with great facilities. A beautiful restaurant to enjoy a lengthy breakfast, casual lunch or sublime dinner whilst enjoying the views. Convenient shuttle from the hotel and back at various points of the day. Superb and authentic service from all staff members we met but in particular Big Max and Francesco in the restaurant, Frederico (Freddie) the Head Chef and Giuliana on the front desk. A simply stunning place to stay.

The Hotel Villa Ducale was beyond our expectations - truly fabulous! The room, the food, the view - all excellent! We especially want to thank and commend Guinluco (not sure of the correct spelling) who was welcoming, kind, and offered many suggestions for restaurants, parking, the shuttle service, getting gas, and other helpful ideas. His English was excellent and it was our luck that he was at the hotel! Thank you again!

We had a lovely time at this amazing hotel with a top notch and friendly staff who Pamper you and look after your every need. You literally are on top of the world when you stay at Villa Ducale. The hotel is very close to the hilltop Church of the Madonna La Rocca and that is key because you are very close to the foot path down into Taormina which is no cars and leads you to Ancient Greek theater which is a must see! What we love about the hotel is the dining room where all the windows are fully opened weather permitting so the fresh air while you are eating breakfast is amazing. We also had dinner two nights at the hotel and the food and cocktails were great. At night all the lights of Taormina and Naxos sparkle so very romantic enjoy all of you lovers! Our room had a lovely terrace very private for sipping that great Sicilian wine. Highly recommend booking a day tour to Etna with guide and wine tasting at Gambino winery.

We just stayed at the Hotel Villa Ducale for 4 nights and it’s charm stands out. It is a very old, boutique hotel situated above the town of Taormina and the Mediterranean. The walk down to the main part of town has a few stairs but, well worth the view. The lobby area, sitting area and dining room were very clean, comfortable. Our balcony off our room was nice. Breakfast was delicious and the view each morning was stunning! Thank you Massimo for my espresso each day—your service was incredible. In fact, the entire staff was so kind, thoughtful and so very helpful for all of our needs. We even got a glass of prosecco during our check in. Nice touch! Great option in Taormina!
