It's a truly special place, where Sicilian history meets contemporary comfort.”

Art and Comfort

constant joy central location lovely staff
I loved the art hotel. There were views and sculptures at every turn. Its location on the Piazza Giuseppe Mazzini was central. It was perfect for walking and visiting sites.
The room windows lacked curtains, i had to close the shutters to maintain privacy.

artistic haven stay

excellent service thoughtful check-ins fresh breakfast excellent drinks
The service was excellent. I felt very welcomed. manager danili's check-ins were thoughtful. antonella and marianna served a fresh and fun breakfast each morning. giorgio made excellent drinks on the rooftop. He was committed.
The room i had on the second floor faced a pedestrian street, so the sound insulation was minimal. Some late-night noise disrupted sleep.

poor insulation synthetic duvet
The breakfast was generous enough. I could find something to eat.
My room faced a pedestrian street, and the sound insulation was not good. I heard people yelling at night. the lack of curtains meant i had to keep the shutters closed for privacy, which darkened the room too much. the light duvet felt completely synthetic. It lacked a cover i found that subpar.
