"Such a lovely stay. The staff were excellent and would go out of their way to help you. They even came looking for us when we got lost on a bike ride! Our room was lovely and the whole place has been restored bewutifully in a way that oozes rustic charm with modern comforts. I loved the no chlorinated pool. The surrounding birds and the almond, orange and olive trees make it a little paradise. Great for bird spotting too. The place is so peaceful that the only noise we heard at night was the Eurasian thick knee (yes, we had to look it up too). An extraordinary bird! The breakfast and dinner were delicious. Minor faults were an undercooked boiled egg and an overcooked tuna steak, but all in all the food was very good and delivered by such friendly, guest focussed staff that I didn't like to complain. We hope to return!"

"The spa was excellent - both the facials And massages. The room was large and had a lovely terrace. The hotel restaurant menu was limited but the bar staff talked to the kitchen staff and they made what we wanted to eat. "

"We loved our stay. The accommodation, the setting, the grounds were great. The location was close to discovering amazing small towns and the remarkable Villa Romana and the beautiful countryside around. Our only quibble would be with the main courses at dinner. "

"Breakfast was outstanding. fabulous croissants, hard boiled eggs, cappuccino, selection of fresh fruit, yogurt and cereals. The 3 large breakfast tables were beautifully set and the serving area was flooded with morning light with an expansive view towards to the north of the cathedral and Piazza Armerina."

"Amenities were small due to off season "

"Excellent location and modern property"

"Absolutely lovely and comfortable home just out of town. A 200 year old villa fully restored on property that includes gardens. The owner was very gracious and efficient and the breakfast was amazing. It takes about 7 minutes to go to the town center in car. Note that the road to town and to the house are tight so go slow and drive carefully."

"The room was very clean and updated. This property would be great in the summer. There was a bus tour in the main hotel so we stayed in the nice outer building. Quiet but took a long time to get hot water"

"This hotel is beautiful. I hope to return for a longer stay. It’s a beautiful old piazza, fully renovated with modern accessories in a very elegant way. Breakfast was great, pool beautiful, staff extremely friendly and helpful. Parking was easy and free. Sadly, I didn’t get to visit the spa but nearby Ragusa Ibla was fantastic. This hotel is 10/10."
