What the classifiers highlight
A 14th-century convent turned 19th-century grand hotel, cliffside above Taormina with Mount Etna and the Ionian Sea in view. MICHELIN awards it three Keys; Four Seasons, which took over in 2021, turned former monks' cells into rooms of 301 to 1,507 square feet finished in Patagonian marble. Anciovi serves seafood beside the infinity pool.
