Hotel Il Piccolo Giardino  

Typically Sicilian and family-run, the Piccolo Giardino sits on Corso Umberto – the main street in Taormina. Nestled among boutiques and antique shops, this recently renovated hotel is a haven of contemporary rooms and modern design, and comes complete with a rooftop sun terrace with a pool and a whirlpool bath, too.

Dressed in urban neutrals, rooms are the epitome of understated chic. Think pale, dove grey bed linen, soft cream walls and modern chrome light fittings. Some rooms also have a balcony. Downstairs you'll find plenty of comfy seating areas like the reading room and TV room. Think blue and white-striped sofas and light wood coffee tables. And the whole hotel is air-conditioned, too, for added comfort.

Behind the hotel you'll find a dinky Mediterranean garden complete with views that span the City and sea. Take a seat at one of the vintage-style, White tables and indulge in an Italian breakfast of croissants, Sicilian cheese and coffee. In a private oasis of palms, tropical plants and citrus trees.

For evening meals there's the hotel's a la carte restaurant, or take a wander down the lanes where you'll find plenty of bars and eateries.

If you want to melt into your surroundings and live like a local, the small and trendy, Piccolo Giardino is perfect. You're right in the heart of town, and the beach, reached by cable car or minibus, is just five kilometres away.
