We loved our stay at Residence Circe. The front of house manager, Guiseppe, was incredibly helpful and always had a smile on his face. The location of the B&B was perfect, with a beautiful terrace and a quiet bedroom away from the busy street. The staff provided great instructions for getting to the hotel and even suggested taking the bus from Catania. The room was clean, albeit simple, with tired furnishings. However, the amazing location and wonderful staff made up for any shortcomings. We would happily stay here again.
Nothing that I didn't like. 👍

Giuseppe is really nice, the place is clean, and in a great location. Had room 201 which has a large patio that over looks the sea and the greek theatre. Breakfast was really nice.
WIFI/internet didn't work

Giuseppe, owner of the hotel is a really nice guy. We stayed there only for 2 nights, but are very pleased with the hotel and the service as well. If you're looking for a good hotel in the very center of Taormina I recommend Residence Circe.
The lift wasn't working when we were there. We weren't bothered about it as stayed on the 2nd floor, but if you stay on the 3rd, 4th etc. and have a lot of luggage it will help you lose some callories :)

Our stay at Residence Circe was excellent value for money. The spacious duplex room comfortably accommodated our group of four, with a large bathroom and en suite toilet. The location was ideal, right in the center of the main pedestrian shopping area and within walking distance of parking garages and restaurants. The staff, especially Giuseppe, were incredibly helpful and made our stay even better.
The breakfast selection could be improved, perhaps by offering a wider variety of options to cater to different preferences.

The location of the hotel is good, in the heart of the lively main street but still close enough to a shuttle that takes you to a public car park. The kitchenette in the room was comfortable for cooking small meals for when you don't feel like eating out. The terrace with the room is very big and nice, and the included breakfast included really fresh and excellent food. But above all this, the selling point would be the hospitality of the owner, Giuseppe, who was always very helpful and nice with us, providing us with a lot of information and hints. If I had to go to Taormina again, I would definitely stay here again!

The residence was very well situated right in the middle of town. Guisseppe, the owner was very accommodating and friendly. He spoke excellent English and was funny and helpful. The rooms were large and the back ones overlooked the castle and ocean. They were clean and very roomy. Breakfast was served in the hotel at the back of the B and B. It was fresh, quite extensive and generous. Airconditioning was a bonus.The only draw back was the front room that one of our party had was noisy. Excellent value and I would definately recommend it.

our second stay in taormina was made even more special by the perfect location of residence circe, situated on the main road close to everything. the facilities, including an elevator, were great, and the staff's restaurant recommendations were a real treat. we were even able to check in early, making our anniversary celebration that much more memorable.
Breakfast was a disappointment.

At the beginning we were complaining because of wireless Internet did not work but now I am sorry that I inquired so many times and bothered the good man Giuseppe so much. The best thing that you could meet on your holiday is the impression which results in fact that you want to come again in the same place and in the same hotel.We exactly experienced feelings like these. Everything was so charming and friendly.Location,view from terrace and beauty of Corso Umberto street was unforgettably.Being Giuseppe`s guest was the same feeling of being in your own home. Family Cvijanovic from Belgrade,Serbia,July 2011.
Nothing for serious complaining!

I recently stayed at Residence Circe in the center of Taormina for a weekend getaway. The location was perfect, right in the middle of the main street and close to all the main places. The staff was incredibly helpful and the hotel was spotlessly clean. The rooms, although old, were spacious with beautiful views. Despite some tired furnishings, the overall experience was great!
Strongly recommend this hotel.

Central location in Taormino and close to the cable car for beaches , Greek theater and shuttle bus for parking The room was quiet spacious for 4 people bearing in mind the main street of TAORMINO Lack of TV and Internet - ( believe it is an advantage)))) Posh Italian shopping till 21 .00 Tasty dinner with quiet romantic atmosphere ( very rare for noisy Taormino)
Very noisy ( the garbage men at 6 ^ the last tourist at 24 - if you are planning to stay more then 2 nights I can't recommend it) No swimming pool ( we survived but it was promised) The hotel is old ( lift didn't work, air condition remembers my Granny, all night water dropping in the bathroom) But all these drawbacks are not crucial for such a price and Central location

The value for money was excellent, and our room was spacious and comfortable. The location of the hotel was perfect, right in the heart of the bustling city center. The staff treated us with utmost care and provided exceptional service throughout our stay.
The only thing that could make the breakfast better would be to offer a wider variety of options.

The manager Giuseppe is extremely friendly and helpful. The room had a small well equipped kitchenette, which enabled us to prepare our own meals. A very good buffet breakfast at a restaurant just across the street was included in the price. The location on Corso Umberto I was excellent. A very good choice for budget travelers in Taormina (which is a very expensive town).
