Ragusa hotellia

Plussat: Staff always friendly and helpful, nothing is too much trouble. We rarely stay in the same place twice and this is our fourth time at the Artemisia! The pool is very well maintained and there are plenty of sun loungers

Miinukset: Air conditioning could be better. Although not the properties fault we saw unattended towels on sun loungers for the first time.

Plussat: Very nice place, well located to have a trip around the south-occidental part of Sicily. The location it’s really nice with a lovely garden and pool

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Staff were very nice & helpful.. Breakfasts were very good. Room was nice & clean & well presented. Pool was lovely.

Miinukset: Location was good in some respects as it was in-between most of the major villages & attractions, however it was at least 20 minutes drive from nearest place of interest, so with the benefit of hind site, it might of been better to base ourselves in a local town (in order to be able to walk to a restaurant of an evening). That said, it is only something to be aware off, as the upside of staying at the Resort, rather in town, is the lovely pool.

Plussat: Very nice staff. We had a medical issue and we were taken care of in all extend possible. They organized a doctor and helped us in any possible way. The breakfast is outstanding and contains everything imaginable from different bread, cakes, cheese, fruit - excellent!

Plussat: The staff and the relaxed atmosphere

Miinukset: The location was a bit remote

Plussat: Great breakfast, big and amazing room, beautiful pool and garden

Plussat: Big, comfortable rooms with nice beds, very clean, good bathing facilities, well filled mini bar and little snacks in the room, but we have to mention the breakfast buffet. Sicilians like (fresh) food and are good in preparing it, so Artemisia resort decided to put just about everything on the buffet. Not just one pie, but everyday a choice of 5 different fresh pies, and cookies, and crepes, bread (diferent kinds of course) , fresh fruit , different teas and what not. All prepared and served by a very friendly and helpful staff.

Miinukset: The table tennis table and the table football where not really in a very good shape (the latter did not function at all), no balls or very damaged. Standing in 40 degrees celsius in the sun doesn't help and though it is not a big deal, that's something to improve.

Plussat: Everythingggg

Miinukset: No coffee in room.only teabags

Plussat: A true gem of a resort hotel on the edge of Ragusa. The rooms are spacious and very clean. Plenty of parking. Incredible breakfast. But the most impressive thing about the place is the Staff. They were all so friendly and helpful.

Plussat: We loved the location and the hotel was clean and comfortable with an incredibly spacious spa like bathroom. The complimentary breakfast made it easy to get a quick start to the day and see more sites in Ragusa Ibla.

Plussat: Location excellent, spacious rooms with spectacular views, tranquil and clean environment, and friendly staff. Breakfast, very healthy choices and great coffee. San Giorgio Palace Hotel is surrounded by historical monuments and medieval churches. A variety of restaurants and good wine, to end the day. Looking forward to be there!

Miinukset: All fine!

Plussat: The San Giorgio Palace Hotel is a gem. We recommend it highly, in every respect

Miinukset: We liked all of the hotel offerings.

Plussat: The location was amazing. The staff were extreme nice and helpful. Loved this place!

Plussat: Everything was perfect!

Plussat: Great apartment, great breakfast, great host, great pizza around the corner.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great cosy place, very nice and helpful owners, very good italian breakfast. The entire experience was a real treat! Che bella e Giulia! :) Cari Giuseppe e Silvana grazie per la vostra gentilezza.

Plussat: Warm welcome, cozy room, state-of-the-art bathroom.

Miinukset: We would have preferred something salty for breakfast. However, what we got was perfect, though not exactly our taste.

Plussat: Extremely nice and helpful hostess. Very well equipped and appointed rooms with kitchen. Incredible value for the price!

Plussat: The room is very clean, the bed is comfortable. The staff is extremely kind and helpful. The breakfast is tasty (homemade cake).

Miinukset: -

Plussat: This is a most impressive country house totally immersed in the tranquility of the sicilian countryside.. very autentic and very well managed.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything about this property and the staff deserves the utmost praise. It's a typical Sicilian experience, very comfortable and attractive, quaint, spacious, with lovely views and a perfect location to visit the UNESCO towns all around.

Miinukset: We liked everything

Plussat: The place, while being old, has retained original features yet done in a beautiful way. Good size room with en-suite. Comfy bed. The pool is a really lovely size and area. Great for kids as shallow end is very shallow! Breakfast was a highlight. We made bruschettas with fresh local cheese & ricotta pastries. Delicious! Highly recommend local mozzarella & steak place few minutes drive away for dinner. Hosts lovely. Efficient service! Perfect stay.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: Beautiful quiet place with nice hosts... there was a good buffalo restaurant nearby, loved it.

Miinukset: There where to many children.

Plussat: Charming ancient House with great garden and swimming pool. Located in the rural area. Highly recommend to visit a restaurant Magazee near by, next to buffallo farm. The most deliciuos food for tasting - mozarella de buffalla, pizza, great buffalla steak and house vine. Not to miss it.

Plussat: Pool, location, and room

Miinukset: Poor wifi signal

Plussat: Hospitality of the host, his tips, good breakfast on a nice terrace, best and confortable bed, very clean, grat location very close to Duomo, but quiet

Plussat: Perfect location, central but super quiet at night. Great room, very comfy. Paolo was very helpful and accommodating. Great breakfast on the terrace (which is beautiful, a little oasis). Would highly recommend.

Miinukset: Nothing!!

Plussat: Host was wonderful and attentive. Typical European hilltop village, no problem to find with Google maps. Breakfast was good and pleasant rooftop terrace.

Miinukset: Typical B & B with pluses and minuses. All okay.

Plussat: Clean, modern bathroom, excellent breakfast, excellent location right near the center of town. Hosts were very accommodating and helpful throughout the entire stay.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: STAFF, STAFF, STAFF, LOCATION, LOCATION & lovely set up for breakfast!

Miinukset: We stayed in IRIS room, lovely location, huge room and bath, however sitting area before entering the room was damp, musty ordor, as a result we couldn't take advantage of the space which had a sofa and TV unit. Outside door entering the sitting space was difficult to push open as the titled floor was elevated due to ground heave, so each time my husband had to push/pull the door open for us to enter, it was a bit of an ordeal to say the least. Easily fixed with either removal of tile, lowering the raised ground, replace tile or plane down the door. Second suggestion- bath was huge but no hooks to hang towels, robe, etc. I'm 5'1" and had to lean over a lovely 2' sink area to put on make-up, easy fix, install an expandable side mirror of which shorter people can use. A small drying rack could be placed under the huge sink area so small garment items could be placed to dry. Finally, great desk area but no lamp, ceilings were easily 15' in height so light over bed didn't give much light to desk area. Giardino is in a lovely B&B, these are my personal suggestions for making others experience a little more comfortable.

Plussat: Beautiful garden with great views over the old city and the cathedral. The pool must be nice to have in summer, the whole place is very relaxing. Very good location.

Miinukset: The decoration and furniture are rather Spartan, or you can call it design also. The bed could have been more comfortable.

Plussat: Great owner. Super location just above the main square of the old town. Excellent breakfast, lovely terrace of fruit trees overlooking rest of the town and valley.

Miinukset: Finding it via sat nav. Had to stop and ask local waitress who knew it and told us to ignore all the no entry signs, found us a map and told me where to go.

Plussat: The peaceful garden setting.

Miinukset: located on a hilltop so always a climb to get back from the centre of town.

Plussat: Got the fantastic view of the town! Great value!

Miinukset: No English TV channel.

Plussat: Excellent location, particularly if driving. Right in the centre of town, but with reasonably easy car access and large parking area nearby. Accomodation is spread across a number of old houses, while a lovely garden with small pool and excellent views offers a chance to relax in between sightseeing.

Plussat: Location is fantastic. Breakfast ladies were most attentive.

Miinukset: The room smelt of damp and reminiscent of hostel accommodation. Bare walls, not a lot in the room. Found it difficult to be described as a DELUXE room. .

Plussat: As soon as we arrived we were helped with luggage and orientation of the property-which is absolutely gorgeous. It was like coming home to an oasis from a long day of sight seeing. The breakfast is excellent and the owner and workers are very accommodating and desired to make our stay very enjoyable. They were helpful when we had questions of where to go for not only sight seeing but things we happened to need but where to buy it. I would love to stay here again if we are ever in Ragusa. WiFi was strong and AC was excellent and a reprieve from the heat-a beautiful modern bathroom and strong hot shower-everything was great and it more than ticked all the boxes. Thank you for a great stay!

Plussat: It was a beautiful clean space. The street it very quiet.

Plussat: The host allowed us to check in early and was accommodating and called us a taxi upon leaving. The location was great and the apartment was clean and well appointed.

Miinukset: The small bed was old and uncomfortable.

Plussat: This accommodation is perfect for stay in Ragusa. It is so close to both old centres and not far from the train station. We enjoyed large bathroom (we got free upgrade from small room (booked) to bigger one). The street is quiet but safe.

Miinukset: We had fun of narrow doors to the house.

Plussat: Good location , close to the historical centre and view ponit on Ibla town.

Miinukset: Nothing in particular, I came late slept just one night and continued eary morning.

Plussat: Quiet apartment in the old town. Good kitchen with lots of equipment for cooking. Short walk to fabulous viewing points overlooking Ibla. Supermarket close by.

Miinukset: Apartment with very little natural light, only the front door, but that seems to be standard for ground floor apartments. There was a musty smell, probably as a result of not being aired.

Plussat: The staff including the owner were most helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: All good

Plussat: Viehättävä vanha palatsi, jonka ullakkohuone oli rauhaisa, ilmastointi miellyttävä ja uni oli levollista. Henkilökunta ja palvelut (kahvila, aamiainen, pysäköintipalvelu) tekivät majoituksesta vaivattoman. Ravintolakin oli, mutta majoituspäivämme( tiistain) se on juuri kiinni. Ympäristössä toki kiva osteria ja muita ravintoloita, mutta päädyimme kävelemään huipulta alas uudempaan kaupunginosaan ravintolaan ja nousu yöllä takaisin polveilevia rappuja myöten kävi urheilusta.

Miinukset: Ei moitittavaa. Jos olisin huonojalkainen, olisi viisaampaa yöpyä uuden kaupungin hotelleissa alhaalla tai kulkea autolla tai päivällä turistien maisemajunalla.

Plussat: Small hotel in a former palace, very good location, very friendly staff, excellent breakfast. Everything is superlative.

Plussat: Good location and friendly helpful staff.

Miinukset: Rather hard and short bed.

Miinukset: The wifi did not function.

Plussat: The best restaurant in Modica is at the hotel!!!My wife broke her foot in Noto and the staff here was so helpful in helping her...getting ice, carrying bags, even administering a blood thinner shot in her arm!! Great staff! They help to park your car too!

Miinukset: ... there are no other restaurants within walking distance.

Plussat: The breakfast was good and the location excellent. Staff were freiendly and helpful.

Plussat: Room was quiet.

Miinukset: Room was dark and everything felt old. Shower was funky and terrible water pressure. Bed and pillows were super hard. Hotel is over rated!

Plussat: Allowed us to check in early. The young lady on reception was super helpful. Wifi worked well. Spa bath amazing!! Very comfortable bed. Nice location in Alta just a short walk from the Duomo and lovely little bar at the top of the Duomo steps. Midday checkout a bonus. Very relaxing.

Miinukset: Had lots of Sicilian breakfasts and this one was slightly disappointing. The breakfast could have been more imaginative. The local ricotta was excellent but only served on one morning. Almond milk very nice but bran flakes stale. Didnt eat in the restaurant as menu not appealing. But good places to eat lower in the town.

Plussat: The hotel is a lovely old palace in a real neighborhood with produce vendors, cafes, restaurants, a grade school, a movie theater, and a small tree lined piazza in front of the church. One night the locals held a party in the piazza with food and a band playing old Beatles songs. Truly a piece of local life. The hotel breakfast was a feast.

Miinukset: I like the hotel and my room but the internet service was a bit slow.

Plussat: Upea rakennus hyvällä paikalla vanhassa kaupungissa.

Plussat: Everything! The location, facilities and the were staff exceptional. Breakfast was very good and we ate in the restaurant one night and it was the highlight of our holiday. Did not want to leave and cannot wait to return

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great breakfast, lovely atmosphere and very quiet (in a good way). The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful and we both felt very welcome.

Miinukset: The location would have been problematic without a rental car - most interesting places are a drive away. I'd also say that the cost of an airport taxi was very steep and could have been reduced given the location. Food also excellent but very pricey.

Plussat: The flies at the pool, made use of the pool a big problem.

Plussat: Absolutely outstanding. Nothing was too much trouble from all of the team at the hotel, made us feel so welcome, very knowledgeable and helpful on things to do, and impeccable service throughout. The breakfast was an excellent buffet and the dinner tasting menu was superb. We also enjoyed a half day cookery class with the chef in the hotel kitchen which was so much fun, and led to a wonderful long lunch enjoying everything we created! Could not recommend more.

Plussat: Location, very central Breakfast ok

Miinukset: Room noise isolation No parking Noisy air conditionner

Plussat: Very friendly and kind staff. Nice and big bathroom with good shower.

Miinukset: Unfortunately the room was not supplied with an iron and the one that was supposed to be given to clients was given to another room so we could not use it. But the staff was very kind about it.

Plussat: Mateo greeted us and gave us good information, especially on going to Siracusa. Breakfast was good with a lot of variety, including scrambled eggs and yogurt, and excellent coffee. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Definitely will stay here again on our next trip.

Plussat: The staff was super helpful, kind, welcoming and attentive. The breakfast was the best of our entire month in Italy and Sicily

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Staff were incredibly helpful. One staff member collected us and showed us the way in our car. Parking right next to hotel. Huge breakfast.

Miinukset: The bed was too small and not comfortable

Plussat: Excellent staff, helpful and happy. Breakfast was delicious.

Plussat: The design of the building and breakfast

Miinukset: Getting to the place. A little difficult with Tom Tom.

Plussat: Excellent clean pool and room.

Miinukset: No tea making in room for early risers

Plussat: The place is on top of a hill, so you can see Ragusa and the whole valley. It is in the green although trees are still little. Staff was kind and swapped us room for a quieter one as soon as it was possible. Breakfast is reach of handmade cakes, local products and cappuccinos are fantastic!!! The staff is really friendly. The view from the pool is really worth the trip. The upside of being close to a highway is that Monica, Scicli, Ragusa and many more are really closeby.

Miinukset: The location is close to a highway. We have been told the owner built the place before the highway work started. So if you get a room on the side of the highway there is a bit of noise. Nothing that cannot be solved with ear plugs, however I guess people choose this location for the isolation, the nature and the silence, so this is a shame really because the place is wonderful. The place is still being built, so there were caterpillars digging in the morning. It was not loud, however not ideal. The place has no restaurant for lunch or dinner, only breakfast is served, however they get food ordered on demand and delivered to the hotel.

Plussat: The view from the separate villa was just amazing. The checkin staff were friendly and polite, speaking excellent English. There was a big supermarket nearby where food for self-catering could easily be purchased.

Miinukset: The swimming pool was a little on the chilly side, would have been better a degree or two warmer.

Plussat: The pool is great. Very nice, quiet and clean location. Breakfast is great and the staff very kindly. It has a big parking and it is close to all important places and towns.

Plussat: The property was nice. Staff was very helpful.

Plussat: Great ambience and location

Plussat: Very comfortable, in large rooms. Lots of character. The staff couldn't do enough to help. Good location between the two parts of the town

Miinukset: The breakfast was disappointing, some of the pastries were in short supply and quite stale. Sunday breakfast had to be taken in a nearby hotel, where the toaster didn't work! The bedroom was fantastic, but did smell quite musty.

Plussat: Lovely to have a pool. Breakfast was excellent. Sitting outside having breakfast was lovely

Miinukset: I would go again but ask for a room nearer the ground floor. I didn't expect to pay for a pool towel.

Plussat: The Villa Del Lauro is a great hotel and set out over 3 levels. The reason I took a star off the facilities is our room was on the lower level and therefore a bit damp.

Miinukset: Dampness in the room. Of course we could of requested another room.

Plussat: This is a beautiful Boutique hotel in the heart of time with a wonderful pool and gardens. The staff are all amazing and the breakfast was lovely on the terrace.
