Reviews and Ratings
The hotel location was ideal for exploring San Leone, within a close walk to lovely restaurants. However, the rooms showed signs of wear and tear and were too small for two people. The dining experience was particularly bad with limited options and poor quality food.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was clean and had a large balcony with views of the hotel entrance, but it was a bit small for a 4-night stay. More variety of fruits and vegetables could have been offered. The service was disappointing as the staff seemed reluctant to address issues like air conditioning not working properly. The location was great for access to restaurants but noisy at night. The dining experience fell short with synthetic orange juice and poor breakfast choices. However, the hotel had some good facilities to offer.
The hotel is located in a very nice area, close to the Agrigento temples and Porto Empedocle. The rooms, although needing some maintenance in certain areas, were clean and spacious, providing a comfortable stay. The service was helpful, but there were some issues with temperature control. The hotel offers a great location but was not fully open during our visit in April. The dining experience exceeded expectations in a large room. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few areas for improvement.
The hotel rooms were nicely decorated but showed some signs of wear and tear. They were a bit older but still comfortable. However, there could be more variety in fruits and vegetables like strawberries, carrots, and blueberries. The double bed provided added to the comfort.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were pretty large by European standards, but it was too small for two people. The location was great and within close walking distance to lovely restaurants, but it wasn't amenable to swimming. The dining options were well catered with a good variety, but the quality was lacking in some areas.
