perfect location, beach across the road. Very close to the bus stop. Caters to quite a few tours from the Netherlands. Great breakfast and very friendly staff. Family run and old style furniture.

Wer es einmal gefunden hat, wird sehr freundlich bergrüßt und das Parkplatzproblem löst sich (trotz sizilianischer Enge) in Wohlgefallen auf. Das Hotel ist familär geführt, gemütlich mit Charme und sehr netten Restaurants in der unmittelbaren Umgebung, so das auch eine lange Nacht mit viel Wein und gutem Essen zum Urlaubsprogramm gehören wird. Für diejenigen, die NICHT 250 EUR+ in Taormina ausgeben wollen, um sich dort dann mit anderen auf der Isla Bella zu knubbeln, ist dieses Hotel eine klasse Ausgangsbasis, um die Gegend zu erkunden und sein Geld mehr als wert. Das Frühstück war überdurchschnittlich. Die Location (auf der Dachterasse mit Blick aufs Meer) ebenfalls. Alles in allem sehr empfehlenswert.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Hotel location very close to all areas. Rooms had great view of ocean from balcony, and were nicely decorated. Breakfast was outstanding with a great variety of foods. With street just below balcony, could be a little noise with traffic and people later at night. Excellent quality for the price.

Very difficult to take a shower, there was not space enough. Quite impossible to use the toilet, I had no place for my legs, and I’m only 1,80 m.!! Very noisy place! I do not like Giardini Naxos and the evironment.

Very pleasant people, always helpful and friendly. It's a pity that the 4th floor dining room chair scraping is loud enough to wake the dead... But the town is very nice, with some excellent restaurants. We enjoyed our stay (apart from the early wake-up calls), and I'm quite happy to say I'd go back...to perhaps the 1st floor though.

I have travelled in numerous places in Italy, and have found that La Riva is a pleasant, comfortable hotel. The staff and the accommodations are above par. This is a hotel that is well worth it. We will definitely return to it when we return to Sicily.
