Hotel Rivage Taormina

Great boutique hotel in Mazzeo beach area. Very quiet, clean and extremely friendly staff. We were greeted by Gabriele and he was lovely, showed us areas of the hotel, welcome drinks and took us to our room, explained the hotel and services as well which was appreciated. The hotel itself has a modern yet Italian feel to it, the rooms are average size but enough for 2 for a few nights, balcony has a sea view and directly across the hotel is the beach club - if you’re using the beach towels, it’s an additional fee which we found weird when the entry to the beach club is free.

The staff were very helpful and friendly, nothing was too much for them and provided lots of helpful tips for getting around. The hotel was very clean and modern. We stayed in the 'double with side sea view' room. The room was spotless and spacious with a balcony. Breakfast was included, a wide spread of continental and buffet options and very tasty. There is a bus stop about 400m up the road from the hotel which costs you 1.10 EUR to get into Taormina. The beach club run by the hotel is across the road and provides sun beds (at no cost to hotel customers), you can stay there the whole day. The restaurant at the beach club was well priced and had delicious food. You can hire beach towels from the hotel for a small fee which was very handy.

The hotel was lovely. The rooms were really clean and the bed very comfortable. The pool was a really refreshing experience with nice cabana beds. The hotel was small enough to feel quiet and relaxed. The staff were very helpful. It is a short bus ride into Taormina and only a couple of euros. There is a bar and restaurant overlooking the beach attached to the hotel. The staff work tirelessly and are all very helpful. The food was delicious and a high standard. There are also other bars and restaurants close by. Thank you to the staff for a very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Hotel Rivage is a truly lovely little gem offering excellent value for money.. Located on a quiet street opposite a super beach, with a beach bar and restaurant owned by the hotel, this is perfectly located for a beach focused holiday. And yet not far is the beautiful bustling town of Taormina to explore. The staff truly understand customer service (special thanks to Tina and Enrico) and could not have been more helpful.

A very nice hotel. Rooms are clean. Best are those which face the sea. Staff is extremely helpful. The manager takes care personally for everything you need. Excellent breakfast in a nice terrace. The hotel restaurant on the private hotel beach is very good. There's a nearby bus station that takes you to the center of Taurmina in 10 minutes, so we didn't have to use the car at all. Parking is free and available on the street near the hotel. Highly recommended
