Noto hotellia

Plussat: I had booked another place to stay in Noto but was very unhappy with the facilities and staff. So I relocated to this great hotel conveniently located with shopping and great restaurants.

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Small hotel (10-12 rooms) at edge of pedestrian only historic part of Noto. Rooms were large, clean, well-appointed (lots of technology and a laptop in each room). Very nice bathroom with bidet. Large closet. The breakfast was very good and the attendant made good scrambled eggs and very crisp bacon, along with serving a variety of other items.

Miinukset: Hotel is comprised of three separate buildings joined together and floors not on same level, meaning some steps to go up or down to get to your room. We were able to find street parking a few blocks away but if you need to park at hotel it will be 20 euros per night.

Plussat: The room was very nicely done and comfortable. Sparkling clean with all amenities working. The staff were absolutely excellent, hospitable, knowledgeable and very nice. In general we loved everything. If you go there set your GPS to the Porta Reale Landmark, not the Hotel.

Plussat: Staff central location and excellent room.

Miinukset: Nothing really. Parking a pain but the price for the location

Plussat: I really likes yougurt and bread , bed was compfy people very friendly

Plussat: Hotel Porta Reale is situated in the main street of the old city. We were shown where to park for no cost and were able to drop and pick up our luggage at the hotel door. This is a small hotel, which has been renovated beautifully. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We really enjoyed the welcome drink on the terrace with beautiful views of the old city.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: We were greeted at the door by someone who took car of our car. At the reception the lady was very friendly. The room was great - large, comfortable, everything worked perfectly. Porta Reale is right at the entrance to the main street of the old city in Noto. It's a perfect location to visit the city. They have a beautiful terrace on the roof with a view of the old city and a bartender, where you can enjoy a nice drink in the evening into the late night.

Plussat: view from my room. rooftop bar service & view. very helpful staff.

Miinukset: Rooms were smaller than expected.

Plussat: Beautifully appointed. Very stylish and comfortable. All of the staff without exception were welcoming attentive and helpful. Exceptional staff means they are doing a lot right. Great evening meal. We were recommended the catch of the day and it was delicious

Plussat: Amazing food, we love the kids cinema and bicyle

Miinukset: A bit too modern

Plussat: Stunning location. Well-designed clean rooms. Breakfast. Restaurant staff.

Miinukset: 1. Reception staff were unhelpful - Absolute indifference to visitors. When you first arrived, you expect to be greeted with a smile and help. And the staff saw that we were carrying several suitcases ourselves, no one paid attention and did not offer help. And at the check-out (again !!!) I asked: help me bring the luggage to the parking lot now. Not in half an hour, not in an hour, but right now, I'm already leaving. I waited again and again no one helped me. For the first time in my life I come across such indifference from the reception. 2. The bathroom periodically smelled of sewage.

Plussat: Arrival was excellent and welcoming, The bedrooms where very comfortable and spacioua, beds specifically extremely comfortable and large, Spa and pool was also excellent always kept clean... Grounds and hotel are well looked after and the staff and facilities gave an excellent service! Will visit again in the future for sure. Gluten free bread was also served and waiters helped with ordering and service.

Miinukset: A couple of things bugged me, 1) dinner (specifically bbq) was far from expectations and rather disappointed with the quality of the meat served, service was excellent on the other hand the restaraunt did not charge us for a couple of the mistakes hence the service was excellent. 2) Regarding Bedrooms upon arrival our room had alot of flies inside and a bad smell of insect spray which was not a pleasant surprise. 3) Air conditioner also did not always work (setting of temperature could only be made -2+2 degrees of what they set it on 18-22degree celcuis. At times too cold and during night it got too hot..

Plussat: Great location to visit Noto and the Beach. Super host!

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Everything was perfect.Quiet place, spacious clean rooms, hospitable and friendly host.The host does not speak English but works excellently with the Google translator.The room was cleaned every day, the towels too.

Plussat: The spacious room

Miinukset: The puppies in next doors garden were a little loud but they’ll be away or grown up soon.

Plussat: Everything can be summed up in one word: Paolo. An excellent host. He was very kind and provide a lot of useful information for our trip and the best experience possible.

Plussat: Our host was helpful in planning a day trip to nearby villages. He used his translator app so there was no misunderstanding and we had great fun communicating that way. He also provided a map of downtown and parking and restaurant recommendations, which were much appreciated. We liked that the location was away from downtown, very quiet, and with a small balcony overlooking a green hillside.

Miinukset: There are four rooms in a single hallway and noise does carry a bit from room to room. I suppose it could be a problem but all the guests were quiet while we were there.

Plussat: Clean and tidy, helpful owner

Miinukset: Had to drive to restaurant

Plussat: Very friendly staff. The room is large and has a large bedroom also

Miinukset: Nothing, the room is 8 minutes driving from Noto center. If you do not mind then the price quality ratio is xcellent. If you are looking for a room in the center of Noto than this is a little bit to far away.

Plussat: A genuine and welcoming place, especially convenient if heading inland from Noto.

Plussat: Quiet location, parking slot, spotless, Ambra and her father, Ambra's mum marmalades for breakfast, views. Attention to details.

Miinukset: Nothing. It was the perfect place. Its just a long walk for the city center, but it pays back with the quietness.

Plussat: Talon emännän suosittelemia huviä ravintploita

Plussat: Everyone was so friendly especially Ambra. She went out of her way to help us in our future travels. She even picked us up from the bus station & dropped us off. Would highly recommend this place.

Plussat: The welcome and the room standard which was excellent.Good linen and nice towels .The breakfast was outstanding with a feel for local produce.Secure parking and a fairly easy daytime walk into the centre.

Miinukset: I would not recommend walking back from the centre at night .The usual manic driving with liittle or no regard for pedestrians and quite confusing in the dark .

Plussat: I booked Villa Ambra B & B - Noto and then was not able to travel. However my companions who were able to continue on the trip : this is their review: "This B & B felt professionally run. On arrival we were presented with a welcome tray of custard filled cornetti, almonds and small chicory liquors. We had a tiny balcony area opening onto the back yard ,"

Miinukset: The location didn't feel particularly safe to be walking at night and felt like a distance to walk into the centre of town. During our stay there was a lot of noise outside our bedroom door with other guests coming in very late etc.

Plussat: The best host ever! Ambra is just lovely - so kind and helpful, always with a smile on her face, offering useful tips and advice, even valuable discount coupons for our visit to Etna (and that's after we ended our stay in Noto). A new benchmark for hosting standards! :)

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Villa Ambra was a gem. The accommodation was basic but clean with an excellent bathroom and great value considering the quality of the breakfast. We had a small balcony and the use of a shared roof terrace. The highlight was Ambra herself and her wonderful breakfast. Ambra provided a map with many excellent recommendations for local restaurants and day visits. Each morning she would suggest an itinerary with lots of tips on parking and places not to miss. It was as other reviews stated a short distance from the Main Street, uphill on the way home but less than 15 minutes through well lit streets. It would have been easy to drive the couple of minutes each evening but we chose to walk to walk off some of the fabulous food we ate on Ambra’s recommendation. I wouldn’t hesitate to book Villa Ambra again

Plussat: Welcoming and hospitable Excellent breakfast Good parking

Plussat: Staff were very helpful. Very pretty villa on outskirts of Noto - nice pool. Lovely grounds

Miinukset: WiFi very intermittent

Plussat: A nice villa hotel surrounded by beautiful nature. Pool area is good. Nice building. When arriving we felt they were very focused on the immediate little profit and decided not to spend much time at the resort. However the postal card size vintage TV in the room is on its own worth paying a visit.

Plussat: The location is good as it is near to Noto, some beaches as well as other Agriturismo properties for varied meal options. You will need a car to get around. The staff in the restaurant were outstanding & charming. The Front Desk staff were welcoming but one that we found a little tricky. They have a big pool which was a welcomed relief from the heat of the day.

Miinukset: For the amount we paid we thought the Rooms were very small & basic. If you are planning a 1 or 2 day stay, it's sufficient but anything longer it's not advisable for long stay or families. Rooms lacked sufficient wardrobe & or storage space for big luggage. The Pillows also needed replacing but to be fair we probably should have asked for more Pillows. The amenities in the shower, were not great, bare minimum. Again, if you are going to stay for awhile, would recommend that you bring a bottle of your own liquid soap. Rather surprising to us, was when we went to exchange our Pool towels after 3rd day of our stay, we were informed that to exchange them for fresh ones, we would be charged 2 Euro per towel. We travel frequently but we've never experienced this at a Hotel before. Understandably you want to encourage guests not to waste, so every day to change I can understand. But 3 days after or longer, it didn't make sense. Particularly since they give you no option in the room to hang your towel up or a drying rack outside to hang the towel over. Maybe rethink this charge policy & instead encourage guests to change after 3 days or instal additional hanging hooks in the rooms to hang & air wet towels. The breakfast was enjoyable but not much variety compared to other properties we stayed at in the region. We had dinner some evenings at the hotel but it was pretty average so we opted to eat out at nearby Agriturismo's. Be warned, there is no parking in the city of Noto. Unfortunately we did not know this beforehand & ventured out for dinner only to have to return soon thereafter. The hotel have a pre-reservation policy but our situation of no parking, was beyond our control. As we had no other option we returned to the hotel & asked if we cld be accommodated. Restaurant was not full.

Plussat: Value for your money

Miinukset: Location a bit middle of nowhere

Plussat: Serene and beautiful. Wonderful restaurant with attentive staff. Giuseppe was especially personable—kind, upbeat and very knowledgeable! A true asset to the hotel! Terrific breakfast! A truly memorable stay!!

Plussat: This place is a dream. It's set in a remote rural area, beautifully embellished with mature trees. The pool area is picturesque and the grounds around the guest areas make for great walks and relaxation. We stayed for three nights and had dinner there every night. The food was excellent and the staff professional and always pleasant. I cannot recommend this place enough, it's simply gorgeous.

Miinukset: The WiFi was slow, and also because the place is so remote the data through our phones was slow too. Other than that everything was perfect.

Plussat: A great spot to relax and experience typical Sicilian life. Breakfast is abundant. Will revisit the place when get the chance!

Plussat: Quiet location and convenient to tourist sites.

Miinukset: No phone in the room so I can’t contact reception when we ran out of toilet paper.

Plussat: Don't imagine this will be a farmstay with a friendly local family. The Masseria is a professionally run, upmarket, smallish (35 rooms) spa resort. And it is very well done. The low key accommodation blocks, built in local rural style, are unobtrusively scattered in an olive grove around a generous pool. Rooms are plain but comfortable, with a large shower room en suite. The restaurant has a lovely terrace overlooking the site where all meals are served. We ate there every night - the nearest town, Noto, is 20 minutes away - and everything we tried was excellent, the staff helpful and English speaking. An ideal spot to relax but within reach of beaches and Val di Noto historic towns.

Miinukset: It would have been good to have had more comfortable chairs for sitting out. A coffee machine or kettle would have been welcome.

Plussat: Surprised by the quality of the dinner and the high service standards. Very peaceful location on the country side but still very closed to the Vendicari Nature Reserve, great beaches and less than 30 min. drive to Noto.

Miinukset: Our room was quite dark (closed shutter) due to the ground floor, facing the inner court. For two nights was still OK.

Plussat: It’s a lovely setting...offering peace & tranquility! Would like to return & stay longer.

Miinukset: €3 pool towel fee. No where in the world have we ever experienced such a fee to receive a 2nd pool towel, even in 2 star hotels!

Plussat: Perfect place for families and couples. An old sicilian farm with a very nice view. The team is very professional and they really helped us enjoy our holiday. They propose a lot of activities like wine tasting, bread making, short travels near by. The pool is fine, the beach Noto Azura is just 5 min away by car. The garden is wonderful in the sunset. Noto is 15 min. Marzameme is 20 min. Don t miss it! For a better sicilian experience rent a car to help you move to Modica or Pallazalo Acreide. cakes and the coffee are amazing. You should try the peach pie

Miinukset: The real food (ham, cheese, etc) was the same the whole 7 days we stayed. We got really bored. I would expected more types of salami, ham and cheese.

Plussat: Quiet room, very comfortable. Enjoyed eating in the restaurant.

Plussat: Lovely location. Great food. Grow own fruit and veg. Fab breakfast. Dinner lovely and local ingredients. Staff v friendly. Bar in the evening

Miinukset: Enjoyed everything but do need a car to get around easily.

Plussat: Brilliant location, short walk through to the beach and national park, the food (breakfast and dinner) was all fantastic

Miinukset: Not the properties fault - be careful if arriving at night using sat nav / phone navigation as new road near the property doesn't come up on google maps / waze off the roundabout at Noto (signposted Lido di Noto)

Plussat: A great place to unwind from a hectic life with a lot of atmosphere. Great food choices in the morning, for small lunch and at dinner with a beautiful terrace. It is rare to find such professional, but same time very friendly and caring staff.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: We enjoyed our stay here. It's a perfect location for visiting the nature reserve and you can be there in 10 minutes. We had a great welcome and all the the staff we encountered were really friendly. Our room was spacious and beautifully clean. The opportunity to laze by the pool was much appreciated.

Miinukset: The menu completo at the restaurant isn't great. I think a la carte may well be better. Breakfast was also a bit of a disappointment compared to others we had on our trip.

Plussat: Independent house in the town. Not far away from city center and free parking

Plussat: Hotel Flora has the perfect location for visiting all the sights in beautiful Noto. The staff was very helpful and charmig. Good Wi-Fi, a/c and comfortable bed. Also helped us with a parkingspace!

Plussat: Loistava aamupala ja erinomainen sijainti. Myös palvelu oli erittäin ystävällistä.

Miinukset: Suihkusta ei saanut kuin kylmää vettä ja korjauksen jälkeenkin suihkun viemäristä valui vettä kylpyhuoneen lattialle

Plussat: The room we had was brilliant and included a massive Jacuzzi bath. The location is great with only a short walk into the centre of Noto. Really friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: The parking was not good. Both the hotel and booking.com said the hotel had off road parking. It has no parking apart from the end of a cul de sac road leading to the hotel. As it happened we had no issues but if we had known this we would probably not have chosen this hotel. The breakfast was very basic and not that good really.

Plussat: We were so grateful that the hotel is 10 feet away when we got off the bus in the cold dark night! It’s 5 min walk to the old town, very convenient. And they sell the bus tickets here and know the accurate bus schedule! And the front desk staff is very helpful.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Excellent location,very friendly family run.

Plussat: location was perfect very close to city centre

Miinukset: that we neede to pay to park the car

Plussat: The location was more than great - the hotel is situated at the beginning of the main street and there is a car parking really close by where you can park. Rooms are comfortable and nice, very clean. Breakfast was very nice with variety of options.

Plussat: Ornella was excellent, gave good information how to arrive at the hotel - bus stop just 10 steps away, extremely convenient. Martina was sweet too, gave good restaurant recommendations, liked to laugh and loved the Swiss ;-)) The breakfast was super, the man was polite & lovely too, when we asked for omelette, he asked if we wanted to add marmalade too ?...eerr, that sounds a bit like the Austrian dessert - Kaiserschmarrn :-)) so funny, we had a good laugh :-)) Room was super, quiet and clean, good sleep, all perfect. Easy 5 minutes walk via the park to centre, enjoyed the beautiful baroque architecture, and a coffee & cannolo in Cafe Sicillia, perfect... Love this little town full of friendly nice people. We said buongiorno to an elderly man on the street..he smiled and said "ohh, today is not so buongiorno but tomorrow, when the sun is out again..haha

Miinukset: the weather - rain and super windy :-)) So will come back again when the weather is better :-))

Plussat: A great pool, though be warned they only clean it when you demand it be cleaned, otherwise expect to swim with worms and leaves and debris.

Miinukset: This place might be ok in the high summer, but we were treated as if an I convenience. The sheets and towels were damp and dirty. They provided very little for food and the staff were nonexistent - it was extremely poor value enemy at 1/2 price. One murmured g i left our bed 1/2 stripped in urged that they might iticyfe cjean fresh sheets, but they just used the same dank dirty sheets.,

Plussat: Everything

Plussat: Great breakfast and with a great view

Miinukset: Showering a bit difficult since fitting was not working properly.

Plussat: Fantastic outside spaces, great location and very welcoming hosts.

Miinukset: Nothing to dislike

Plussat: Beautiful garden and local style building

Miinukset: Breakfast was a bit boring. Not much pressure in shower

Plussat: The location is beautiful and the staff are kind and friendly; although most speak only a little English they do their best to make your stay memorable. Delicious pasta dishes, especially the pasta nonna.

Miinukset: Our bathroom was a bit smelly. Food service finishes early (7:30pm), so for a later dinner you have to drive to local towns/villages.

Plussat: Quiet location, a real retreat to get away from it all. Friendly staff. Excellent food.

Miinukset: Better lighting in the room and individual bedside lights for reading. Only coffee making facilities available but we drink tea!!

Plussat: The hotel is located in a very strategic position allowing you to reach the most important attractions in few minutes by feet. The building is an ancient one, but room are equipped with all modern comfort. Bathroom is quite spacious to host a large shower (we reserved a superior room).

Miinukset: The reception doesn’t operated full day, so pay attention to your arrival. The staff, even though was helpful, doesn’t reflect the expected level of professionalism for a 4 stars. The same is for the breakfast, very poor and low quality.

Plussat: The property is stylish, comfortable beds and the location is amazing.

Plussat: So very central with easy access to Cafe Sicilia just two mins away

Plussat: Andrea was so nice allowing us to check in early. The location is absolutely perfect to enjoy the town. Our room was very comfortable and spacious.

Plussat: Great location, lovely team who own/run it; beautiful decorated and safe. Also breakfast was great.

Miinukset: Nothing really, it’s a lovely hotel. The rooms are kind of small but you expect that in these old cities - we also booked a small room though

Plussat: Right in the centre of Noto , a brilliant start to our trip through southern Italy and Sicily , I two minute walk to bars and restaurants plus all local sight seeing. He hotel is very clean , well renovated , the staff very friendly and helpful , our waitress at breakfast spent time advising us where to visit whilst practising her English ( and our Italian ). We parked right next to the hotel on street at no cost ( do pick a small car the streets are very tight )

Miinukset: Access not for the less abled as many steps into hotel and through Noto.

Plussat: Very comfortable room. Great location . Coffee was great!

Miinukset: Maybe glasses in the room for water.

Plussat: The owner was very helpful and we were provided with what we needed. The b&b is not so central, hence parking was very easy. Noto centre is about 10 min walk.

Miinukset: One of the bathrooms was very worn out and requires fixing. The other rooms were ok.

Plussat: Nice room with balcony overlooking a quiet street in a residential area. Reasonably easy to walk in to the centre of town. The room was comfortable and had a fridge which was a bonus. The young lady who runs it was very pleasant.

Miinukset: The streets leading to the town were typical of Southern Italy, no pavements and lots of litter. This was not the fault of the hotel, just a fact of life here.

Plussat: Terrace. Quiet.

Miinukset: Not very warm staff, just bussines, but for sleeping very quiet place with parking in front of the house.

Plussat: Good value for money,

Miinukset: Breakfast could improve

Plussat: The staff where lovely and the room was adaquate for the price paid with a very comfortable balcony

Miinukset: I have had b&bs where the breakfasthad more variety. Some guests where noisy the walls are not thick so you can hear them. Even doing intimate acts

Plussat: Nice room in good location. Lovely terrace with good breakfast. I recommend this place when staying in Noto.

Plussat: Great position, only a 15 min walk into centre of town. Comfortable room with nice bathroom. Cleaned everyday very well. Breakfast was ok. Swimming pool clean and always sun loungers available. Good Wifi.

Miinukset: 1. Not really a nice bar on premises 2. Beds for children (13 and 15) were not very steady and firm.

Plussat: The room was clean, spacious with a big terrasse. It had a big parking and the pool was nice.

Miinukset: Compared to other places we stayed in Sicily it lacked charm as it was a big hotel. But I was looking for a place with a parking and pool in Noto which is what I got so it did the job. I will note that it is 15 min walk uphill from the Center which was fine for us but may not be for everyone.

Plussat: The pool area was relaxing . And the food at the restaurant was excellent!!

Miinukset: There wasn’t any coffee machine.. and almost all the lifts were not working to go down .

Plussat: The staffs were very nice and breakfast was very good

Plussat: Perfect location, within 15 minutes to old city Broad choise on breakfast ( if the local guest dont steal there lunch too). Staff ar breakfast friendly Pool

Miinukset: Very noisy, a party keeps you awake till late. Every tv or talk from neighbour room is loud and clear, all stories told in hallway keeps you awake, not attractive at all ( tiles every where, no decoration) Refrigerator only with 1 small water bottle and plastic cup ( paid for 3 persons) Airco is direct above bed, so a freezing blast in neck. Room next to road and fire-brigade station..( few times a night...) Safe in room, yes indeed, but loose, you can bring it... Staff at reception rude, non service, not even check a request, just say “ no” Hotel is labyrinth Never again ! Not a 4 star hotel at all !

Plussat: Quiet, clean & well maintained hotel The pool is very nice and breakfast has fresh various items

Miinukset: Maybe a slight walk (10 mins) to centre but not too far away :)

Plussat: The hot buffet part of the breakfast was cold.... The lights used to heat the chaffing dish were just tea light candles....The cold part of the buffet was excellent, many choices!!

Miinukset: The bar service could have been better, everytime you looked to get a drink there were issues,,,i.e, no staff, no change , staff not knowing what you're looking for had to get another member to help you....

Plussat: There was a great selection of cakes and pastries at the breakfast table.

Miinukset: The layout of the hotel was unusual, the bar which was at the front of the hotel was away from the restaurant area which meant that on several occasions we were left waiting for people to staff the bar. The route to the pool at the back of the hotel was through the main entrance and round by a footpath when the pool could have been accessed directly from the hotel at the rear. There was a lot of noise from people using the toilet during the night or showering early in the morning. The lights on the balcony didn't work.

Plussat: Big room with aircon, balcony, etc. Good breakfast, book exchange in reception, loction about 15 minutes walk from historical town, but we chose it because it was near the station, less than 10 minutes.

Miinukset: Pool closed early for a private event, which turned out to be a loud disco, which was very loud even though we were at the furthest point in the hotel from it. Luckily we were only in about 12.30, and it finished at 0100, and there was no noise afterwards, but if we had wanted an early night it would have been annoying.

Plussat: Lovely old ruin that has been beautifully done up

Miinukset: Was lovely all around it amazing grounds and beautiful

Plussat: Beautiful place. Very clean. Great Breakfast Very close to San Lorenzo Beach

Miinukset: Check out at 10AM is too soon.

Plussat: The location was perfect, only a 3 min drive to the beautiful San Lorenzo beach and a 10 min drive to picturesque Marzamemi. It was a great base to explore the region with most sights being within a 30 min drive. Free parking was handy too. The staff were always so welcoming and friendly and I loved that you could tell it was a family business. It is an incredibly romantic place and you can see why it is used for special celebrations and weddings. They also had the most delicious wine selections from local vineyards. The entire building is beautiful and lovely to stroll around. It has an impressive driveway up to it that makes you feel you are arriving to a grand home from another era. The pool looked beautiful but we never used it what with the stunning beach so close by. The breakfast selection was fantastic and dinner was very special too. I liked that the owner and chef came out to chat to each table and see if we were enjoying it. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Miinukset: The ONLY negative was the bed. While spotlessly clean, it was as hard as a rock. And while I do like a firm bed, this was excessive and we both had aching backs from it after 3 nights.

Plussat: Location excellent

Miinukset: Wifi in the room was poor

Plussat: Very nice atmosphere. Friendly staff

Plussat: Loved the Italian charm of the room, the pool and friendly staff.

Miinukset: Given the cost of €190 per night the property didn’t meet expectations. Breakfast was not fantastic. If we were being charged closer to the local rate rather than booking.com rate then that would have made more sense.

Plussat: Lovely park, friendly staff, great breakfast

Miinukset: Room was a noisy has soon you are walking Bathtub and not a proper Italian shower

Plussat: Parking space free and easily accessible Lift Good breakfast

Miinukset: Rooms with fairly simple and shabby furniture. Functional but old fashioned

Plussat: The kind personal accomodated all our wishes (e.g. separte beds instead of a double bed) and gave helpful recommodations of nice places&restaurants in the area. In fall, there is not much closeby but if you have a car (the hotel has a parking lot) you can go to the city of Noto within less than half an hour where you find many nice stores and restaurants.

Miinukset: The bathroom (even though clean and cleaned daily) often smelled musty (probably from the sewers). Beds are rather hard.

Plussat: Great location, opposite the beach and bus stop to Noto. Very helpful staff.

Plussat: very peaceful and nice place. wonderful if you can have a balcone room face to the sea

Plussat: Small, but cosy hotel right next to the beach!

Miinukset: Easy breakfast, not a high quality.

Plussat: Position and setting of hotel, quiet and private. Good bed,cleanliness and excellent lighting in room.very pleasant staff

Miinukset: WiFi was very on and off, especially in the room

Plussat: Really beautiful garden and terrace with a small pool which is totally sufficient since the hotel is located right next to the beach. The hotel includes a nice restaurant where you should eat at least once during your stay. Also appreciated that you could order drinks in the garden. Staff was friendly and attentive.

Miinukset: We had a room on the ground floor which meant that we didn't get much daylight.

Plussat: The garden was nice, the small room for breakfast was ok

Miinukset: Parking is very small and not enough for all guests, the AC system not very well positioned in the room, no balcony

Plussat: Very small and nice family hotel. Little swimming pool a great asset next to the wonderful beach.

Plussat: It is a beautiful hotel villa with a lush garden and a clean pool to relax in. The bed was very comfy and the aircon worked well. The breakfast buffet was lovely with a good range from fresh fruit to cereals to ham and cheese. The staff were friendly and easy to communicate with. I would highly recommend staying here.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Cozy small hotel with a really nice garden and 50m from the sandy beach

Miinukset: Hotel looked a bit nicer on the photos, but overall fine

Plussat: The breakfast was good. The building complex is very authentic and has comfortable rooms. The location is in the countryside, there were many colourful wildflowers in the landscape (May).

Miinukset: The location was difficult to find. A better description of the best route from Noto would have been useful.

Miinukset: On the site there are photos a restaurant but doesn't exist any more. the bathroom was to difficult to use and with a bad ventilation. the owner and staff not so friendly. it looked that everybody was tired of having guests.

Plussat: the place, the environment and the swimming pool

Miinukset: there was a lot of mold in the shower (photos available on request - too bad for this kind of hotel and for the price) There was nobody to welcome us so we spent 15 min looking for the reception desk (a bit difficult after a voyage) - the tea bags available in the room are not free and are at 1,50 euro each - the road is very tricky ( lot of sharp turns with poor visibility on a narrow rood) - There is no restaurant

Plussat: I loved the concept of the property and the fact that it is located in the ruins of Noto Antica - the whole experience living in the ruins of the old city was extraordinary and something to remember. Although, the driving to the property was not the easiest, especially at the night time. The hostess was very welcoming and attentive - we felt like house guests, rather than tourists in a hotel. We stayed in the middle of May and an individual heating was a pleasant addition.

Plussat: The originality of the local architecture

Plussat: The Monestry was spacious and unique, Anna the owner was very helpful and welcoming.

Miinukset: Nothing, it was just what we needed... relaxing, peaceful and quaint.

Plussat: Amazing design and location and oldness

Miinukset: I liked everything
