Reviews
But let us speak of the pigeons.
They are not your ordinary urban scavengers. The pigeons of the Grand Hotel Timeo are imperialists. They have studied Machiavelli. One — let us call him Generalissimo — stationed himself at my table. He had a schedule. I was merely an obstacle between himself and what he clearly considered his just desserts.
They descend upon your cornetto with the confidence of venture capitalists, their beady eyes holding neither apology nor doubt. The staff speak of them as one might speak of a wealthy but embarrassing relative. “Ah yes, the birds,” they murmur, practicing elegant denial.
And yet — who are the real invaders? We arrive with our selfie sticks, our belief that beauty can be purchased with a credit card. The pigeons, at least, are honest about their appetites. They want your bread. They take your bread. There is something refreshing about their transparency.
The view, though. The view forgives everything. Even the pigeons pause in their relentless campaigning to acknowledge it.
Would I return? One always returns to beautiful, impossible places.
That, and I believe I left my dignity somewhere on the drinks terrace. Generalissimo is probably using it to line his nest.
The property itself is stunning, with beautiful private gardens, a serene pool, and exceptional restaurants and bars. The breakfasts were delightful, and every detail of the hotel felt refined yet welcoming. What truly set the experience apart, however, was the concierge and staff, who went above and beyond at every stage—from the initial booking and proposal planning to ensuring every moment of our stay was unforgettable.
We enjoyed every second of our time at Grand Hotel Timeo and are already planning to return for a full week next year. For us, there is simply no other place to stay in Taormina. Five stars in every category—we cannot wait to come back.
I wanted to take a moment to share my recent experience at the Belmont Hotel in Taormina, which was nothing short of extraordinary.
From the moment I arrived, I was enveloped by a sense of elegance and warmth that truly set the tone for my stay. The hospitality provided by the staff was exceptional; their dedication to excellent service surpassed even that of a five-star establishment. Every interaction was marked by genuine passion and care for guests.
The property itself is incredibly beautiful, with suites that exude class and sophistication. I was particularly taken aback by the breathtaking views that surround the hotel, making every moment spent there unforgettable.
I wholeheartedly recommend the Belmont Hotel in Taormina to anyone seeking a remarkable experience in Italy. It truly captures the essence of classy and passionate hospitality.
Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts.
Best regards,
Gino, Bravo Toronto, Canada
