Poggio Del Sole Hotel

"The minute I went into my room you could smell the mould. The bathroom needs either a deep clean or a total Reno, Carpets in the hallways were faded and buckled - major trip hazard. Although the reception area looked nice that didn’t flow through to the rooms. Service in the restaurant was abysmal - 2 hrs to put together a plate of cold meat & cheese, did not appear to have enough staff in the kitchen. All I could see was one poor man who was ran ragged. Unless they did a major revamp I would not stay here again"

Villa Del Lauro

"First I will say that the staff here were excellent, polite and helpful. However, the hotel is on three levels and there is no lift. The breakfast was good but continental only. There is no restaurant and no bar, though the staff will happily serve drinks in the small lounge. The WiFi is not up to the job. The city of Ragusa is on two hills and the main street one long hill. To get to any restaurant is at least 10 minutes fast walk up hill, and 20 minutes is more realistic. The hotel is on a steep narrow street and the only parking is on-street and limited. You need to be fit! Position wise it is well positioned for access to the town or to Ragusa Ibla, the older part."

Casato Licitra

Relais Parco Cavalonga

"We stayed in Apartment-suite Ibla. The apartment is big, bright, and nicely renovated. The bathrooms work well, as does the AC. The park is wonderful, a perfect (in my opinion) combination of curated and wild. The two swimming pools are well maintained (though not new), have great views, and weren't ever too busy during our stay. The staff is helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly. The shortcomings all relate to the apartment. The cooking hob is ancient; four slow hot plates with four knobs - that's it. No safety lights to warn that the plates are hot. No drawing to show which knob goes with which plate, or which way the knob needs to be turned. There is no microwave. There is only one shelf to store the food. In summary, the kitchen is barely usable. In the living room, there are no cabinets. After asking, we were given a plastic table to put in a corner, which did the trick. The drying rack for the laundry is at small as it gets and certainly not sufficient for 6 people. Good thing clothing dries very quickly at 30C+! In summary, the place is beautiful and the expensive bits are all there: large apartment, AC, swimming pools, park. It just needs some additional work and money to go up a notch. Right now it is between 3 and 4 starts but I give it 4 in the hope they will be addressed soon (I emailed all of these points to the hotel). I would probably go back but not a sure thing."

Relais Antica Badia - San Maurizio 1619

"Great location and unique rooms. Wonderful breakfast selection"

B&B Giardino di Pietra

"This charming B&B was a highlight and we wish we could go back. We have some lovely memories of our stay here, everything was delightful including the owners who were so kind and accommodating. Simone made a wonderful breakfast"

Palazzo Antoci

"If I could put more stars, I would. I cannot recommend this B&B highly enough. Our stay was comfortable, relaxing and Giovanni and Raffaella were perfect hosts and amazingly helpful. Nothing was too much trouble for them, from booking restaurants and recommending places to go to helping us with a hire car. The Palazzo was beautifully furnished and cool in the heat of the day, quiet and with a balcony view over the town a fine place to relax in the evening. It was very conveniently placed in the older part of the main town, with many local sights in easy walking distance. All of the rooms would be to an equally high standard, but we stayed in the King Room, which was bright and comfortable, with a spacious, well-appointed and clean bathroom down a short corridor - the best type of en-suite. The Palazzo has an impressive history and Raffaellla was rightly proud of her heritage, and we enjoyed hearing about it, and all the local information she spoke about. The breakfasts we were provided with were enormous and full of local cheeses and meats; not only that but Raffaella's delicious home baking, a new treat every day. There were plenty of local restaurants nearby and we enjoyed two great evening meals during our stay. Ragusa Ibla is only a short walk away, but be warned, the twenty-thirty minutes it takes is down hundreds of steps and then up some more steps or steep roads. It's well worth it, as there are numerous spectacular views and you will pass lots of interesting buildings. But failing that, the local shuttle bus or a taxi can take some of the effort out of the trip. I would not hesitate to stay here again. To travel in this part of Sicily the bus service was reliable, on-time and tickets easy to buy on-line and download on your mobile to show to the driver. If you hire a car, a good sat-nav is worth taking as many Ragusa town roads are very narrow (indeed!) and so one-way only... getting to and from your preferred location may require some circular trips."

A.D. 1768 Boutique Hotel

"This hotel is lovingly furnished within its old walls. The staff is incredibly friendly, the location is very central in Ibla, and the breakfast is a la carte and includes local delicacies. You can retreat to the "living room" for reading and relaxing. A truly gem."

B&B Belvedere All'Idria

"Perfect. Stayed here for a couple of nights 31st May. Spotlessly clean everywhere, good free parking, great location, good Internet. Room 1 has the most amazing view and one of the most comfortable beds with superb pillows. Simone has to be the friendliest, most accommodating and helpful host ever. Given good recommendations for a scenic, easy, circular day trip. Absolutely highly recommended, thankyou. Wishing you luck, health and happiness for your wedding next month."

La Dimora di Spartivento, Signature Collection

"Good view, good breakfast, good service, room is big , good sound cancellation. Well managed countryside hotel . Recommended"

Antico Convento Dei Cappuccini

"Beautiful place, friendly staff, comfortable bed and pillow. Since the building is stony, the accoustics are very loud, so don't go here if you want to spent time in your room and want some silence; you hear all the staff (rattling cleaning vehicle ), guests arriving/leaving untill night, and noises from the cooking classes. No tea/coffee in the room."
