Ah Taormina...the unexpected jewel in our two week trip to Italy. Location location location. You're on the main street where locals do the evening passegiata. The hotel has very nice and helpful staff who puts together a tasty fortifying breakfast for you. The room is ample and clean. I would definitely stay here again. In fact you know how you play "could I live here" when you're on vacation? The answer is hands down yes! We were in Taormina during low tourist season and it is clear there are day trippers who come visit, but the real joy is having enough time to explore the little streets, discovering sumptuously decorated balconies with container gardens, or the hilly walks down to the beaches, or the walled perimeters of the old city. Not to mention a day trip to Mt Etna. So glad we spent 3 days here; could have stayed longer.

Barbara gave us a very nice breakfast. The room was attractive in a desirable part of Taormina. The bed was very comfortable and the room was clean. We had an excellent view of the sea. We would stay there again.

The B&B is in the heart of Taormina just by the clock tower, up a set of stairs used for tables by the restaurant opposite. Lovely place and a great central location just seconds onto the main shopping/eating area. We arrived by train & bus and walked to the B&B so couldn't comment on parking if you had a car. All rooms are located up an internal staircase once inside the B&B. Our room had a sea view (over the top of the hotel rooftop in front) which was a lovely addition. The dining room had a communal table and the items on offer (bread, cheese, meat, cakes, fruit etc.) were plentiful, and our lovely host also offered scrambled egg which was delicious and freshly squeezed orange juice. We only stayed one evening, a Sunday, the bar/restaurant below the B&B had entertainment on until roughly midnight so made the late evening a little noisy even with double glazing.

Porta di Mezzo is a conveniently situated B&B in the heart of old Taormina. We booked the accommodation for a 2 night stay, but due to a flight delay, we were late arriving (1.30 am) and unable to obtain access to our room. Despite phone calls, with no reply, we had to check in elsewhere and pay to stay at a neighbouring hotel. Despite this issue being a bumpy start to our 7 night break, we met with Barbara at Porta di Mezzo the following morning and commenced our stay a day later. Fortunately, Barbara assisted in helping us re-arrange our itinerary with other booked accommodation for our holiday and was a lovely host throughout our stay. Breakfast was plentiful and good. The accommodation was modern and clean and very convenient to all amenities that Taormina has to offer.

the main problem with this B&B is that it over sells itself as Luxury when it is not. It is a nice B&B located in a very convenient part of town, but there is nothing luxurious about the place and the pictures are somewhat misleading.
