San Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four Seasons Hotel

Concierge was not very helpful. There was not many options for breakfast. The first day of my breakfast in four season, I ordered hot an Americano, they gave me a cold one.

Last weekend, my family and I, including our two young children, had the pleasure of staying at this luxurious and exclusive hotel. From the moment we arrived, the hotel surpassed all our expectations.The interiors are stunningly designed, and our room was nothing short of fantastic. We were treated to breathtaking views that added a special touch of comfort and elegance to our stay. Each morning, we enjoyed delicious and varied breakfasts, setting a positive tone for the day ahead. In the evenings, we relaxed at the bar, savoring exquisite cocktails in a cozy atmosphere.The staff at the hotel were exceptionally pleasant and always ready to assist us with anything we needed. Their attentiveness and professionalism made us feel right at home, ensuring that our stay was both comfortable and memorable. The hotel’s location is ideal, with all major attractions within walking distance, allowing us to easily explore and enjoy the surrounding area.One of the highlights of our stay was the spa area, where we had a wonderful time splashing in the pool with our children and indulging in some relaxation. This trip was the fulfillment of my wife’s long-held dream to visit the hotel featured in the second season of the TV series “The White Lotus.” The reality truly surpassed our expectations, making it an unforgettable experience.We are already looking forward to our next visit to this remarkable hotel. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking top-notch service, exceptional comfort, and unforgettable experiences. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for providing us with such a wonderful stay!

Breakfast was very comprehensive. Something for everyone. Staff could not do enough. Housekeeping were faultless. Just everything exceeded our expectations. Amazing location. Will be back

Check out, was charged too much. Had to write 2 emails when home, to rectify. Did not cancel holding amount. Now sorted

Absolutely Stunning! Excellent location, amenities and staff.

The property, the staff and the location were perfect. The room was clean and the service was great.

The price was above average.

As expected of a Four Seasons. Beautiful inner courtyard. Corridors and rooms a little corporate. Gorgeous big bathrooms. The staff was relaxed and professional but not stuffy.

The food was ok but not exceptional. We had lunch and it didn’t sit so well. Ideally they could move the gym to a place with a view on the gardens rather than in a closed room.

High Standard and beautiful respectful renovation. Lovely room, quiet with terrace. Service was second to none.. Just delightful ! Beds comfy every need and want attended to.

Breakfast was amazing.Loved the location.Fitness center was too warm.

Spectacular, historic property on a storied perch overlooking the Mediterranean with views of Mt Etna from some locations. This is a fairly large hotel (110 rooms). We were upgraded on arrival to a room with a terrace and plunge pool - it was a little too chilly to use in late April- but provided a nice view back-dropped by the Sea. The service was helpful and responsive, but did not feel as personalized as many of the non-chain historic properties we have enjoyed in Italy. Beautiful location, beautiful gardens, lovely casual restaurant high above the Sea (the Anciovi). Anyone a fan of Season 2 of White Lotus will enjoy comparing the actual hotel to scenes from the series, much of which was filmed in additional properties around Sicily rather than specifically at the hotel as you might assume. The hotel is an oasis of calm and beauty. Taormina itself is, like Capri and other Italian charmers, on the verge of being overwhelmed by tourism. Even in late April walking the main Corso was jostling arm-to-arm almost all day long.

Stunning hotel in THE best location in beautiful Taormina! Full of historic charm , sympathetically modernised by Four Seasons.

Everything

The bartender was rude. The bar was empty and the room very quiet with nobody around but him behind the bar. I asked him is the bar was open and his answer was NO. To later say that yes, it was open. I did not really appreciate it.

This was everything you would expect. Opulence, beauty and just an incredible escape. The food was impeccable, the pool area, service and experience perfect and it just took our breath away.

The staff. The pool. The attention to every detail. World class

They forgot to tell us breakfast was included until 3rd day

Superb

Breakfast and pool side food was good. Dinner options were average at best and left a lot to be desired for a 5 star hotel.

stunning hotel clean stylish and great atmosphere. if you visit Taormina you have to stay there x

Superb

Service at the outside courtyard bar was very slow and disorganized. But, also very beautiful.

the staff is absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!! the property is amazing, they take care of everything, best service ever, beautiful hotel, great location.

We expected a restaurant in such a prestigious hotel to be excellent, but this was not the case, the waiters' service was poor, the food was disgusting. Do not eat dinner in the hotel restaurant!!!

The breakfast was beyond delicious! Eggs offered anyway you want, fresh pastries, fruits, fruit juice, cappuccino, coffee, absolute perfection in a setting overlooking the sea, snow capped mountains, Mt.Etna and the hills of Taromina!

Nothing to improve.

Excellent. The service was wonderful. The servers were suggestive of dining options and offered to go above and beyond. Your front desk staff person Dunia El Boutaybi, greeted us as we checked in very late and throughout out four day stay followed us and insured we had the best time. She is a treasure and clearly goes the extra mile.

We liked everything

The location is spectacular. The views of the sea, snow capped mountains, Mt. Etna, and the gardens, pool, patios and interior of the hotel exceeded all expectations! The staff treats guests like royalty. Breakfast…I’m hungry now just thinking about how delicious it was!

I can’t think of anything.
