Horrible experience
We had a large group, 3 rooms in total. The hotel rooms are a bit run down, but we had NO HOT WATER for our entire stay of 2 nights. Management was no help, sent some person to each room telling us a tall tale. It was…

As others have stated the best part of this Hotel is the location! Set on a cliff with amazing views from the rooms and breakfast terrace. There was a charge for parking but so convenient. Walking into Taormina was a…

Faulty Towers in real life
This is a faulty towers property, dirty, old, and poor breakfast, with various things not working but with a perfect location, and the best possible staff, and great view of the sea. Daisy at the front couldn't do more…

A gem in Taormina
Loved the position. Super convenient to the city center, with a parking (not to take as given in Taormina, especially so close to the center), and a stunning view to the gulf in the back (suggestion: ask for a room…

Questions about Hotel Villa Riis

What time is check-in and check-out at Hotel Villa Riis?

Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.

Does Hotel Villa Riis allow pets?

Yes — the property states that pets are allowed. Size, number and fee are set by the property rather than by us, so say you're bringing a pet when you book and we'll confirm the terms before anything is charged.

Is there parking at Hotel Villa Riis?

Parking is listed among the property's facilities. Whether it's free and whether a space can be reserved varies, so we check it against your dates rather than promise it here.

Does Hotel Villa Riis have a pool?

Yes — a pool is listed among the property's facilities. Seasonal closures are common, so we'll confirm it's open for your dates.

Is breakfast included at Hotel Villa Riis?

Breakfast is offered at the property. Whether it's included depends on the rate — the board type is shown on each room once you put your dates in.

Does Hotel Villa Riis have Wi-Fi?

Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.

Does Hotel Villa Riis have wheelchair accessible rooms?

The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.

Can I check in late at Hotel Villa Riis?

The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.

How do I book Hotel Villa Riis?

Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
