Grand Hotel Miramare Taormina - Sicily

The Grand Hotel Miramare occupies an elegant villa dating back to 1922, when it was constructed as the sumptuous coastal residence of the Lo Turco family.

Just a few years later, in 1926, the villa was transformed in hotel, then, as now, much appreciated for its vicinity to the center of Taormina and its magnificent panoramic location, gazing out across the sea which divides Sicily from Italy's mainland, towards the Calabrian coast.

Whilst an extensive range of modern facilities has been added to the hotel over the years, great care has always been taken to ensure that the original charm of the building remains unaltered.

Grand Hotel Miramare has a total of 68 luxurious rooms, almost all of which open out on to a private balcony from where to enjoy stunning sea views.

Whilst sojourning at the Grand Hotel Miramare guests have the opportunity to savor exquisite Mediterranean cuisine in the hotel's elegant restaurant with terraces overlooking the Messina Straight. Light lunches and mouth watering Sicilian desserts are served at the pool side bar.

Those able to draw themselves away from the exclusive atmosphere of the hotel find themselves just a short walk away from the center of Taormina, the Greek Theatre and the sea.
