Grand Hotel Timeo, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina

酒店前台Neomi非常友好，整個酒店其實分為兩個部分，在山上的Timeo和海邊的San‘Andrew。兩個酒店之間每半小時有免費穿梭巴士可以坐，其實很方便。Timeo的風景絕佳，服務更是堪稱一流，入住有歡迎水果點心，晚上睡前會放一杯晚安茶飲。由於到的比較早，前台貼心的安排在Bar喝點飲料，退房因為去沙灘玩而忘記了時間，直到下午三點才退房，在90%入住率的情況下完全沒有人催促！晚餐選擇了去海邊的餐廳欣賞落日，每一道菜都很好吃。實在非常滿意此次入住。

分享我在Taormina sicilia 的 Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo 的經歷和情況。這家酒店由兩棟獨立的建築組成：主樓 Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo 和毗鄰的 Villa Flora。儘管這兩棟樓屬於同一物業，但它們提供不同的住宿條件。Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo 提供更豪華的客房和套房，通常可以欣賞到愛奧尼亞海和埃特納火山的壯麗景色。相比之下，Villa Flora 位於主樓出門後大概走2分鐘，提供的住宿條件沒有同等的設施或景觀。 Villa Flora 有不同的入口、地址，並由（希臘劇場）隔開。與主樓不同，Villa Flora 沒有自己的酒吧或餐廳。要享受如餐飲或酒吧等服務，住在 Villa Flora 的客人需要步行到主樓。這意味著要離開 Villa Flora，穿過希臘劇院附近繁忙的街道，並在人羣中穿行以到達主樓，雖然僅僅是2分鐘，但是想像許多的空間跟時間一大早下來吃早餐，晚上睡覺前想下樓喝酒，或者是換上泳衣想去游泳池，都不是很方便。對我來説，Villa Flora 絕對是另一家酒店，不應該與 Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo 共享同一個名字。朋友説如果他的房價跟Ritz paris的幾乎是同等價位的話就不應該將就。

服務太好了，環境很好很值，還為酒店發了小紅書

世界上最棒的酒店之一。

The Belmond Grand Hotel Timeo is a spectacular retreat in Taormina and well worth the splurge if you are visiting Sicily. The location of this property is unbeatable and the views are spectacular all around. We stayed in a bi-level sea view room in the Villa Flora building, behind the main building, and loved it. The Villa Flora building seemed a bit quieter and more private but is only steps away from the main building. It also has a lawn area of its own, where the hotel hosted afternoon aperitivo daily and an extended wine pairing demonstration on our first afternoon. Our room was very generous in size and had two bathrooms, which was a very nice perk of that room style. The only downside to our room was the lack of storage space for clothing (just one smallish armoire), and no space for long hanging. This building has its own staff, as well, and they were very attentive to all requests. The main building is beautiful, of course, and has fantastic views of the city as well as Mt. Etna in the distance. We enjoyed breakfast on the hotel's grand terrace most mornings, which lived up to the Belmond breakfast reputation. We enjoyed Ristorante Timeo one night, as well as Bar Timeo on a couple of occasions during our visit. We had friends staying at the sister property down the hill at the beach, Villa 'Sant Andrea, so we were able to enjoy breakfast and dinner there, as well. A nice perk of having twin Belmond locations is the ability to enjoy the amenities at both properties. We spent one full day at the beach at 'Sant Andrea, which has its own section of beach with plenty of lawn chairs, a great pool bar, and all of the amenities you might want (sunscreen, magazines, water, and even a do-not-disturb sign that they put on your lounger when you are clearly taking a nap - which many people were!). For this trip we booked a package that included transportation, which made everything seamless and quite easy. The hotel is about 45 minutes to an hour from the airport in Catania, so this extra convenience was well worth it. Our package also included a credit that I used at the spa one day. Aside from the beauty of the hotel and the location, the best thing about the property is of course the staff. Everyone was warm and inviting throughout our stay. You see the same staff members throughout the day and evening around the property and they clearly work very hard to provide a great stay for the guests. Their efforts did not go unnoticed by us. I would love a return trip to this fabulous hotel while my husband fell in love with 'Sant Andrea, so we might have to split that difference on a return to lovely Taormina!

Amazing views, food, staff, and location Beautiful interiors and so classy. Restaurant and drinks are fantastic. Felt like the value was great for the price. Every single member of staff exceptional. We now try to stay in Belmonds anywhere we travel
