Loris and the team were all very helpful and super lovely! Even though there isn't a 24 hour reception desk, Loris is very attentive and helped to answer all our questions via Whatsapp. Location was perfect + the room was lovely and large, with a nice outdoor terrace. Breakfast was honestly so delicious, even though the buffet was out of action.
The shower flooded our room each time we used it, even for only a short time, and we needed to use multiple towels to avoid the water flooding everywhere. Air conditioner also wasn't functioning correctly and our room was quite stuffy and smelly from it, but couldn't open the windows due to mosquitoes.

To round out a 2 week whirlwind tour of Sicily, my wife and I chose Médousa for our final nights due to proximity of Taormina to Catania airport for a 6 am departure. Its location just outside or really part of the city walls and a short 10 minute walk to Porta Catania parking garage ticked off my boxes for easy in and easy out with our car rental. The level of service, beauty and absolute charm ticked my wife’s and mine both. Loris was prompt with messages prior to arrival and made us feel at home once we arrived. The suites are extremely comfortable and well appointed with a patio that grants a gorgeous view of Etna. The grounds are part of the city walls and adorned with orange trees that were in full intoxicating blossom during our visit. The walls and garden provide a quiet and calm that is welcome after venturing into the crowded streets and attractions of Taormina itself. The bonus was the bistro. Part of why we chose Medousa was interest in the imbedded Bistro. Unfortunately a few weeks prior to arrival we were advised that construction work to prepare for the upcoming season was not likely to be completed until after our stay. To our surprise on the day of our arrival the bistro opened with its new menu and we would have the chance to dine. While poking around the grounds I was welcomed into the bistro to take a look at the chef’s creations. He had prepared a tasting menu for the staff so they could familiarize themselves with the fare. Needless to say I was excited. We made reservations for dinner the following night. After touring the sites in the morning of our only full day in Taormina both of us were touristed out and while there are plenty of excellent restaurants in Taormina with views of the ocean, we chose to retreat to our quiet garden bistro for lunch. Nothing short of spectacular is all I can say.

Great place to stay when in Taormina. Interiors is really cool, feels modern with character but the hotel is built off the walls of the historical town centre so there’s a cool mix of style. Loris (the hotel manager) was super friendly and helpful. He was whatsapping us to ensure our transfer was okay, gave advice of things to do and more. We were upgraded to suite. Room was spacious with its own terrace. Had everything you needed including hair dryer and steamer.
A bit noisy early morning from outside the hotel / could hear other guests at times. Parking was a bit pricey.

Great great location. Enjoyed our little outdoor terrace. The staff were super nice. They had generous free snacks with the mini bar and a good coffee maker.
The room was large which is great but a bit odd with a large open shower in middle of the suite and wash basins in bedroom area. I think this room is a unique suite we were 'upgraded' to so may not represent other rooms. It was lovely as it had a nice terrace to sit and enjoy some sun. Breakfast was very simple delivered to room - a croissant, and yogurt basically - a bit too simple perhaps for most people.

Medousa is perfectly located in the heart of Taormina. We easily parked our car and felt we could walk straight out of the door into the buzz of the beautiful town. The room and terrace we incredibly clean and modern. We loved the special touch of breakfast being left outside the door in little bags. Loris was knowledgeable, helpful and a fantastic host! We would definitely stay here again. Despite there not being a pool, we didn’t miss it! Loris organised a private car to come and collect us and take us down to a beach club.
Nothing!

The hotel was in the perfect location, away from all the busy crowds but just a good walking distance from it. The rooms were amazing, clean and tidy. The amenities and products in the shower smelled amazing. The breakfast was on point and up to standard, the dinner in the hotel was one of the best that I had in the city and trip. Most of all, the staff, everyone was on point, kind, helpful and always responding to requests. I cannot recommend this hotel enough. I almost never write reviews, but they deserve it.
Nothing.

The breakfast was nothing special...
We booked online for 2 adults and 1 child, paid for it on Booking.com but then when we got to the place they charged us 80 Euro more saying we didn't book for the child. Though it said we did and it was clear in the reservation - it was just a pull out sofa bed to boot. Just didn't seem right. Also the shower was in the middle of the room and had no door so we couldn't even use it with my daughter so it wasn't like we were in a family suite as they called it. Just a sofa bed. Past that the place was GREAT.

Great place to stay in Sicily - the hotel is beautiful and very well located. Could not have asked for a better place to stay to experience the vibe and enjoy our stay. The room was very nice, and super clean. We loved that while the hotel does not offer formal breakfast, they bring complimentary breakfast bag each morning with fresh pastry and juice. We were very happy with the stay!
We just wish the restaurant in the complex building would be open for lunch, otherwise we have no complaints.

Our host Loris was wonderful. He greeted us when we arrived and took our car to reserved parking. His recommendations for dinner were spot on too! The property is small, but located within the town and easy walking distance to great restaurants and the central transit centers. The room is very well equipped with a wonderful coffee maker and kettle. We appreciated the lighter breakfast brought to the room each morning - a pastry, yogurt, juice and fruit. Our accommodation had a private terrace, but since there are only 5 rooms currently in the property, the shared terrace was also very private and offers views of Mt Etna. We learned the property will be expanded soon as other parts of the building are renovated. We highly recommend this property for the outstanding staff, stellar location and boutique feel of the property.
Warning - the shower is enclosed in frosted glass and is in the room. Fine if it’s just you and your significant other, but it requires some coordination if there are others sharing the suite. :) The on-site restaurant is apparently a separate business. Attentive staff but we weren’t excited about our lunch. Felt much too overpriced and a little bland on flavor.
