Hotel Villa Schuler

Villa Schuler, a boutique hotel established in 1905, stands as the oldest owner-operated hotel in Sicily. It is nestled within expansive subtropical gardens that provide stunning views of Mount Etna and Naxos Bay. Most of the rooms come equipped with a furnished balcony or terrace.

This family-run hotel boasts a central yet tranquil location in Taormina, just 600 meters from the cable car leading to the beach and a mere 2-minute stroll from the bustling Piazza IX Aprile and Corso Umberto. From March to November, guests can take advantage of mountain bike rentals, and a shuttle service to the beach is available from May to October.

Relaxation spaces at Hotel Villa Schuler include the lobby, a refreshing winter garden, a sun terrace, a botanical garden, and the Palm Terrace Orangery pavilion. Additional amenities consist of a TV room, a small library, internet terminals, and a piano room. Guests have the option to book “room only” or include breakfast.

Easily accessible by car, this hotel is one of the few in the medieval heart of Taormina that features its own garage, complete with an efficient valet parking service.

A generous à la carte breakfast is offered in the breakfast room, within the Orangery, on the terrace overlooking the coastline, or directly in the guest rooms (available from March to November).

Couples are especially fond of the location, giving it an impressive rating of 9.8 for a getaway meant for two.
