San Domenico Palace Hotel
Taormina - Sicily, Italy
Overview
The San Domenico Palace has long been the world’s definitive monastery hotel. The 15th-century building served for centuries as a Dominican monastery until it was opened to guests in 1896, with some of the rooms being converted monks’ cells.
Monks are known for their gardening skills and the hotel keeps up this tradition with its wonderful formal gardens and parterre, which is ablaze with flowers all year round. From the garden there are views of Mount Etna beyond Taormina’s Ancient Greek theatre.
