Hostel Taormina

We are young people who know that travelers must deal with the “little” problem of having to look for decent accommodation. We want to make that search a bit easier.

Everybody knows that sleeping in a hostel has the disadvantage of not having the services and the privacy you can find in a hotel, but it gives you the possibility of making friends with other travelers more easily. If you sleep in dormitories with other people you have the chance of exchanging information, experiences, and adventures, and discovering different lifestyles, views and languages. This is the principle behind hostels.

Our beautiful city, the Pearl of the Mediterranean Sea, that is rich in culture and natural beauty, awaits you with its beaches, mountains, monuments and history. We are here to welcome you and to help you discover our city and its district. Taormina is wonderful in summer and, because of its lovely weather, it is wonderful in winter as well. Furthermore, behind the town there is Mt. Etna that, in winter, has a mantle of snow, perfect for those who enjoy winter sports. Taormina is the starting point for excursions to all Sicily, where you can admire the Sicilian Baroque buildings and the classical and architectural beauty of places like Noto, Modica, Ragusa, Syracuse, Agrigento, Palermo, Acireale, and Catania, where there is “nightlife” all the year round. We are here to plan your holidays in the best way possible and, above all, to meet you. We look forward to your stay with us!

The volunteers are always treated equally to all the other staff members, we think of ourselves as of a family! Mutual respect and friendly attitude is what we value the most, no matter how different our points of view would be.

Volunteering at Hostel Taormina was my first experience, and as such, it was a wonderful one. The staff—Sahil, Rapha, Grazia, and Francesco—were incredibly friendly from day one! We shared many great moments and meals. The taks where clear and simple. They gave me fantastic suggestions for exploring Taormina and Sicily, whether by train, bus, or on foot, which is great because I love walking! It's a place I would definitely return to. Thank you so much for the great atmosphere and the wonderful time we shared! I hope to come back sometime soon!

Thank you very much for the opportunity to volunteer at Hostel Taormina. This was my first experience working and volunteering in a hostel, and it was truly positive and enriching.
While I felt a bit overwhelmed during the first days of learning and collaboration, I always felt supported. I would especially like to thank Rapha for the guidance, patience, and kindness that made my experience much smoother.
The hostel is in a beautiful location with a warm and well-organized atmosphere. I’m very grateful for what I learned, the people I met, and the overall experience.

All of the volunteers left before their term... Very toxic environment. I never saw the owner, just one time, and had more interaction with his dog. The person in charge of 'training' us (we received no training whatsoever) spoke only Portuguese and basic Italian, and has to be the most unfriendly person I have ever met. Never talked to me directly, only through whatsapp. When I asked him if my shift was over - on my birthday nota bene, not that he would care - he just grunted. When I came back, I was asked to leave because I did not stay for my entire shift. To be avoided!

I had great moments at the hostel. It was my first volunteering experience, and at first I didn’t fully understand all the tasks (reception, cleaning, and standards). However, after an adaptation period of about four days, everything started to flow much better.

I connected with amazing people and also had time to enjoy the city. Unfortunately, I had to shorten my stay due to work and scheduling reasons, but I will take with me wonderful memories of Taormina, the guests, the other volunteers, and the hostel staff.

Thanks, guys! I wish you all the best. 😊

Hostel Taormina, was an amazing experience. From the time with other voulenteers, to time spent with guest. I met so many beautiful people. Lovely area to spend time in Sicilia.
You truly get to immerse yourself with locals. And some of the staff truly helps you with learning Italian.
It was a pleasure volunteering there.
