San Domenico Palace, Taormina,a Four Seasons Hotel

This charming historical hotel in the heart of the Old Town of Taormina offers a beautiful view over the bay of Taormina. The beach in Giardini-Naxos is around a 15-minute drive from the conference hotel and the city of Catania and its train station are roughly 50 minutes away. The original building was a former Dominican monastery from the 15th century, which was transformed into a hotel in 1896 by Giovanni Rosso, Prince of Cerami. Today the air-conditioned historical hotel offers guests 105 rooms in total, located in 2 different wings: the Garden Wing, built within the former convent and the Grand Hotel Wing, a marvellous building in liberty style, added to the hotel in 1896. Both reflect history and tradition without sacrificing modern comforts and conveniences. The establishment offers a beauty corner for natural Phytomer Method therapies and massages.
