IDEAL HOTEL FOR: those who want to sleep in the first Taormina's hotel.

Hotel Timeo in Taormina is located in Via Teatro Greco and can be defined as the first hotel in Taormina. The house dates back to the nineteenth century and is in English style, surrounded by a large natural park and the transformation of the residence in the hotel occurred when the family La Floresta, who lived there, was convinced by the painter Otto Geleng to allocate some rooms of the house to visitors .

Its partial transformation into a hotel was sanctioned by the writing “Hotel Timeo” shown on a wooden plank. In this way, in the nineteenth century, many artists and great travelers could stay in Taormina, still without hotels. In fact, this first hotel in Taormina was nothing more than a manor house, which is still today the core of the hotel. Today it is a place of great beauty, if you are looking for a special place to sleep in Taormina.
