we get at first a room in floor minus 3 (163) very small and with no good atmosphere,for 78 euro? after we ask we get the room next no' 165 better one, "with private roof". we choose the parking of the hotel for ten euro for day,expensive for my opinion.the parking is far from the hotel and close with a gate ,so you have to take a key to open.nice breakfast and nice view.five min walks to the center. the elevator was very slow and the light blinking fast for two days.

We had booked a regular room, but they had some extra space, so they upgraded us to a room with a view of the Mediterranean. The staff was warm, friendly, and knowledgeable -- and they gave us a detailed plan for a scenic route to Cefalu as we left! I've recommended the Condor to everyone I know.

We stayed at the Condor one night and the quality/price is good (especially considering Taormina rates). The room & bathroom were clean. The only problem we had was that the A/C was a bit noisy.

I stayed in the Hotel Condor with my boyfriend for 4 nights. We loved the location of the hotel. It was easy to get to the beach by day (by cable car) and it was only a 5-10 minute walk into the town by night. The service was excellent. Rooms were very clean and the views from both our bedroom balcony and the terrace were amazing. We had no complaints and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Very nice to stay at Condor! Centrum-near, nice-looking little hotel. Nice and spacious room, balcon and wonderful view (sunrise at 6 o`clock was indeed nice!). The staff were very welcoming and helpful, and gave valuabel information without being asked, in excellent english. Breakfast very good in a welcoming terrasse. The only negative was a very small elevator, but it functioned well for us! Not the hotels fault, but Taormina has a problem with barking dogs at night.

Nothing but positives for this hotel. My wife and I spent two nights in Taormina, and our choice of the Condor was perfect.A quiet location, yet close to the city center. The room was very comfortable and we were made to feel most welcome by the owners.....a nice touch in Sicily was the number of small, family run hotels that went the extra mile to make your stay pleasant. Particularly liked the breakfast on the dining veranda overlooking the sea each morning. Also, the upgrade to room with seaview balcony.

Very pleased with this small hotel set above the center of Taormina. Nice view from the room, staff spoke excellent English and were very helpful with suggestions for our preference to walk to beach and to other nearby places. Breakfast a adequate, but not generous.

We had a spacious enough room with balcony and nice view over the bay (ignoring a nearby contruction area which luckily showed no activities). The whole staff was very friendly and helpfull with tipps and recommendations. Center and Greek Theatre were comfortably in walking distance. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. We liked the ones a bit hidden in the smaller lanes better, than the very touristic ones at the main road. In general Taormina to us had more the charme of Disney-romantic and not true Italian style.

This was our first visit to Taormina, indeed Sicily, and Hotel Condor provided a very pleasant home-base for four nights. Helpful, welcoming staff looked after us, always giving us a warm smile, good sense of humour and cheery greeting that makes a stay more special. Lovely people. We enjoyed breakfasts on the rooftop. Room fine in all ways.Perhaps one suggestion for improvement might be the inclusion of tea/coffee- making facilities, although no-where in Italy did we find this. Good location not far from main streets, and you could see Etna erupting (in the distance, I'm glad to say!) from just us the road! One thing we did not enjoy was the crazy driving- cars, trucks pedestrians and especially mopeds all pushing their way through the narrow streets and Autostrade - a wonder there are not more accidents. I know this is not Hotel Condor's fault, but thought it was worth mentioning if you are planning to drive. We had a lovely stay- thank you.

Hotel Condor was our home for seven days in Taormina. The complementary breakfast was wonderful and the family who owned the hotel was warm, friendly and so very caring. Our stay in Sicily would not have been the same had we not stayed at this hotel. By the time we left we had made good friends and would not stay anywhere else when we return to Sicily. This hotel and its staff embody the essence of Sicilian heart and soul.

Had a very nice 2 days at the Condor.The staff could not be more helpful or friendly. They are delightful. Views are good but I suspect that there are better in Taormina.Our bathroom was a bit tired. Main problem was directions which were not terribly helpful which led to us driving down quite an important pedestrian only street in Taormina ! "Follow signs to centre of town" is not very helpful. Your maps are also a little rudimentary.

Hotel staff very friendly and accommodating. Rooms are clean, but try not to get a room underneath the staircase as it tends to get noisy. Read reviews about barking dogs, but you would have heard them anywhere you stayed on the mountain side. Large bathroom, small shower stall! Good location, convenient to town & sights.

Our stay at the Condor was only for one night, but the staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms, though not beautifully decorated by any means, were clean and the views of the ocean lovely. The breakfast area (indoor because it was rainy during our stay unfortunately)was very nice and the food adequate. The parking was a little bit of a walk, but not bad. We were within walking distance of the main shopping areas. The bathroom for our room was very cramped, but the one for our teenage sons was much less so. Again, the staff was very helpful and friendly. There is not lift, but that wasn't an issue for us.

The hotel was absolutely beautiful! the setting was wonderful and so close to the center of Taormina. The views were nice. the only negative about the place is the neighborhood dogs. around the block there is a dog that barks all night long and consequently gets all the other dogs in the neighborhood going. Around 5am a rooster chimes in. I cannot complain about the hotel or its setting one bit, but i'd like to neuter the owner of that dog!

Warm friendly family run hotel, very helpful, polite and accomdating. Clean reasonably comfortable bedroom, but compact. plenty of cupboard space, Clean moderate en-suite. Pleasant roof terrace, though we could,nt see Etna the outlook was ok. Quite but narrow street (all Taormina is narrow streets) Good breakfast available with varied breads, crackers, ham (not so good for us veggies) cheese, jams etc. Overall pretty much as expected from previous feedback info. Extra cost of 'safe' parking is a niggle, more so for longer stays, but te welcoming style makes up for any other shortcomings. Taormina has some wonderful scenary if you feel like a little exercise, climp to the Saracens fort for some stunning night views or sunrises, keep climbing for the village perched on the next peak, to overlook the fort and bay, and back across to Etna. Very touristy, try out of season, good for 2/3 days.

Our experience at the Condor Taormina was excellent. Service was wonderful. The quality of the hotel for the price we paid was great. The staff was very helpful, and I would return to the Condor again. The only issue I had was the dogs in the neighborhood barking, which the hotel had no control over. The location of the hotel was perfect, and all Taormina shopping and resturants were a short walk away.

The hotel is located 5 min walk from the town center and cable car. The staff is very friendly and gave us all the needed information when we arrived. It is recommended to use the private parking, althouhg it costs 10 EUR per night. Note that the shower and bathroom are very very small and the floor gets very wet (but it dries during the night). Overall it was a nice and convenient place to stay for 2 nights.

Okay, I spent much time looking up and comparing hotels through this site. I have been to Italy 4 times, and just returned, having stayed here at Hotel Condor. I will tell you this very important finding: Hotel Condor is the best hotel my wife and I stayed at in Italy! Marcello the host was very cordial, the rest of the staff was friendly and informative. The location was perfect, away from the crowds, and fun to walk anywhere. It was a healthy and short distance to the tram which takes you to street level where you can walk down the many steps to the beach. For the value, Hotel Condor is PERFECT, so don't waste any more time, and book a room right now. In fact the temperatures around this time of year are swimmingly perfect. Grab your girl, put on your walking shoes, and passagere your way along the beautiful town center.

A great place to stay at a great price. Breakfasts on this hotel's rooftop terrace overlooking the sea are some of our nicest memories from 10 days in Italy. Far enough from the town center to be very quiet but an easy walk to the cable car and Corso Umberto. Would stay again if we're ever lucky enough to get back to Taormina.

The hotel was nice with terrace with a beautiful view in which breakfast was served. The room itself was quite small, the bathroom very small. The main concern about my stay was the airconditioning. In the middle of both nights of my stay the A/C went off and the room became a sweltering inferno and I had trouble sleeping. During the later morning the first night the A/C wen back on. The next day I had had enough and asked an employee to take a look at it and he had to wiggle the cords to the A/C to get it to work again. Other than that my stay was good. The location is great, very close to the main drag "Corso Umberto I". Another thing, they tack on 10 Euros for parking per night.

very nice area of town, despite the building works/noisy dogs in the mornings. very friendly staff always willing to help. some spoke alot of english others less, but always enough to get by as with most places in taormina. the breakfast was just right for us (rolls, jam, coffee, croissants etc) great location for etna market with good affordable food and wine. the bathrooms were very clean and with good showers. our room had a balcony that looked over the valley/sea, which i think several others had too. the lift is very slow, but we managed walking up the stairs fine despite being on the lowest floor. local restaurants were all to our liking, tiramisu was very nice and not too touristy, and for very good value and tasty pizzas the on near the arch (opposite Parisi, the prada selling shop) was perfect, but we forgot the name! also recommend the local beach that can be walked to or reached by cable car that has lots of good fish to snorkle with

Condor is a great price for Taormina. The breakfast was wonderful on the terrace with a great view. Also great view from our balcony over part of Taormina. Staff quite helpful. The place is 5 minute walk to the Corso Umberto but a long walk uphill from where the bus lets you off. So for anyone not in shape, take a taxi to the hotel from the bus dropoff. Take the bus from the train station however rather than the 25 euro cab fare. Buses run every half hour or so. Loved the Condor for the price. They do have internet access at the hotel and were nice enough to give us breakfast earlier than usual so we could be the early bus for the train.

What a great deal - a charming hotel, good location, and a terrific staff. We had a lovely room with a balcony overlooking the sea for the most reasonable price. The staff made all arrangements for our trip up Mt. Etna, and took care of our car (we were a bit too frazzled by the traffic to park it ourselves.) I highly recommend this hotel.

This is a relatively inexpensive hotel in an expensive place. Accordingly, the level of services is lower than at a different location at this price. In general I was satisfied with everything except two things: 1. the breakfast is just enough to start the day. They should offer one or two more pieces of bread, then it will be OK. 2. It rained twice during our stay and there was a periodic noise during the night. There must be something that, when fills up by rain, gets instable and poors out the water.

The staff was very pleasant and helpful. It appeared to be 2 generations of a family. We were one of two guests (off season) and we could hear the family next door. Also, the town, and the next door neighbor have several dogs and they barked day and night. There was nothing the hotel could do about this. The breakfast room and patio have a wonderful vista and the food was fine. When asked about restaurants, the staff had several suggestions, but were unaware that every restaurant they suggested, as well as all the others we found were closed on Wednesday evening.

Very helpful and charming desk clerk. She gave us excellent restaurant recommendations, checked the railway timetables for us, and made reservations for the tour to Agrigento. Best estaurant was Tiramisu, but others were very good too. We met a young English couple,and a couple of Australian ladies, all enjoyed sharing their travel experiences and plans. . The breakfast room on the roof was great, with a superb view over the bay and the town(and the dogs next door!)

This hotel is, as everyone has said, very nice, and the staff was friendly. However, considering parking is charged at an extra €10/day, this meant we ended up paying €96 for a double room + unguarded parking space, which I couldn't help feeling was rather a lot for what it was. Our room looked out over a construction site and wasn't particularly spacious. The bathroom was fine, although the shower is minute! The breakfast was very nice, and is provided on the rooftop terrace which has splendid views. If it wasn't for the extra charge for the parking, I would have been very pleased with this hotel but, for us, that made it just that bit too expensive for what is was (especially considering we chose the hotel because it had a parking, not knowing you had to pay extra for it).

We had a lovely stay at this hotel I would fully recommend it as it is exactly what you need, its right near the centre of the town. There are some lovely restaurants around the corner. The room is perfect, although it was a little noisy at times from the dogs howling and some small amounts of construction work taken place.We went back to the same hotel the following week after doing our travelling around the island so that speaks for itself I think. We also had a lovely meal on the terrace that was cooked to perfection by one member of the family. To sum it up i could'nt of asked for a better place to stay great value for money all around.

Hotel Condor is well located away from the busy end of town but still within walking distance of anywhere you might wish to go. Continental Breakfast was excellent, served by welcoming staff. Rooms have thin walls so pack some earplugs! There are a lot of stairs (as you would expect in Taormina) but there is a lift, except for getting up to the terrace for breakfast. A taxi from the railway station costs ~15Euros.

The hotel is in a walking distance from the center and the main street. The staff was very friendly and english speaking. And also as we had a rented car- it was great that the hotel had their own parking place ca 100m from the hotel. Evereything was great- the location, the staff, the breathtaking view from the terrace where we had breakfast. But the size of the room and bathroom! They were really small. You could hardly find your way round the bed and bathroom was like a closet. But anyway it's a good place to stay while visiting Taormina.

We loved the Condor. Our quad room was perfect for our young family. The breakfast on the outdoor terrace was wonderful. The views from the hotel are beautiful and it is located within easy walking distance to all the main attractions of Taormina. We also appreciated the parking that the hotel arranged for a small daily fee. The only minor problem is the map on the website is almost illegible and it is difficult to find anything in Taormina without a map! We would definintely stay at the Condor again.

Very welcoming. Nice location and good views from the bedroom and breakfast terrace. Breakfast a bit limited in comparison with other hotels but at the price, quite adequate. Good suggestions for evening meals and a special mention for Il Saro where we had the best meal of the holiday. A bit of a treck from the bus to the train station but a good value option in what is quite a pricey resort.

Small family run hotel ideally situated away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets and piazzas of Taormina, yet within 5 minutes walking distance. The rooms are adequate, although our bathroom ,whilst being clean is in need of refurbishment. It's worth paying the bit extra for the rooms with a sea view. An added bonus is the roof top terrace where you can have your breakfast or relax with lovely views of the sea looking across to mainland Italy. Another bonus is the private car park as Taormina can be very busy and the narrow streets can be difficult to negotiate. We rarely used our car once at Taormina as most places are within walking distance and the hotel is also situated just a few minutes walk away from the cable car which takes you down to the beach area. All in all the hotel is good value for money.

Hotel sencillo pero muy bien situado y un ambiente muy agradable. Recomiendo cenar en la terraza , es muy agradable y tranquilo. El único inconveniente es que no está muy bien insonorizado y se oyen todos los ruidos. Aun así, volvería al hotel condor

The Hotel Condor was actually a bit of a disappointment, after having read the reviews. Granted it is a 2-star hotel, but it still did have the feel of a hostel, and there was a funny smell in our room, which also happened to be right beneath the breakfast terrace, so we were awoken by the sound on chair legs scraping on the floor. The parking, which is 10 euros extra, is a hassle because you have to undo this whole chain contraption every time you want to get your car in or out. We stayed at a 3-star hotel in Siracusa which was much nicer, cleaner and more modern, for less money than here.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wished we had stayed longer. Fantastic view from terrace garden where breakfast was served. Main street & many restaurants a short walk away. Staff very helpful. Our only gripe (and a minor one) was shower hot water seemed to run out quickly. Would return.

Simple, quiet, and clean, in a out of the way location (minutes from the heart of town and the Theater) with a wonderful breakfast terrace overlooking the sea with bouganvilleas, warm sun and great service! .. L'albergo era meraviglioso ed i camerieri erano perfetti. Great price and exactly what we needed...

quite hard to find but they do provide you with parking for a fee. seems like an ok place to stay but its a little run down and simple. Very conviently located however and i did feel at ease being there. The beds are a bit worn and the shower rooms were tiny. would give it 3 out of 5 mainly for it location and the pleasant people there. Brekkie was also a few croissants and jam no sparks here

Great position just 45 seconds from the main drag in Taormina but in a quiet street away from any noise. Great views from the rooms which are spotless & cleaned to a high standard every day. Value for money you definately get at the Condor, compared to other hotels we visited. You get basic, clean rooms & exceptionally helpful English speaking staff ( just don't ask for an iron in the room, I think there is a shortage in Sicily )! If you are driving make use of the car park @ 10euros a day, parking in the town is limited.

A basic hotel, fairly small room, but for its location right near the expensive town centre its really good value. Some minor building work was going on below when we stayed which increased the noise, but it looked like the work would soon be done. Nice breakfasts on their roof terrace. Parking is available offsite for 10Euros a day, again good value.

Had a great stay here. Rooms are clean and fully equipped. The bathrooms are a bit compact especially the showers but breakfast on the terrace and the wonderful views make up for this. Good location, only 5 minutes from the centre. We've stayed here twice now and can't fault it.

Very friendly and helpful staff, especially the older gentleman. Room was a bit on the noisey side, especially the dogs barking outside. Breakfast lovely on the terrace. Overall a great place to stay, walking distance to all attractions, with cable car close for access to the beach.
