“Very impressed”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2012

person found this review helpful

Like other reviewers we found this hotel very hard to find but with the assistance of the tourist office we were soon walking up a secret tunnel (the back entrance) and taking a lift up to the reception desk, what an entrance!

A modern hotel with lots of little touches, very clean, great location, free internet. Host was very helpful and friendly. Only criticism was that our room was near reception and because you had to ring the bell to be let in at night (no key or card to get in) it was noisy.

Restaurant decor is amazing, set in a 'cellar'.

We stayed a couple of nights and would definitely recommend. One of our favourite hotels in Sicily.

“Terrific hotel!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 December 2011

person found this review helpful

We spent 2 nights here and loved every minute. The staff was friendly and exceptional. The parking below wasn' t available at night due to a Busker's fair and the manager, Ivan, actually drove up in our car and parked close to the hotel. Our room was beautifully furnished. The continental breakfast was fine.It was an easy walk to the main streets of Ragusa Ilba and excellent restaurants. We took a memorable side trip to Noto, only about an hour away by car.

“Great Stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 November 2011

person found this review helpful

We spent 3 nights at the San Giorgio Palace in November 2011.
Having worked out the roads around Ragusa Ibla using Google maps and Google earth we drove straight to the parking close to the bottom entrance to the hotel - and what an entrance! In through the gates, up through the tunnel to find a lift waiting to take us up to reception.
The staff were welcoming and our room was large, modern and well equipped. At the end of the three days we had just about got the hang of all the light switches!
One night we ate in the restaurant which was very quiet but the staff were attentive and the food was lovely.
The hotel was obviously trying to satisfy the tastes of many different nationailites when providing breakfast as there was a large selection of cold choices but providing cereals but no milk was a bit strange.
The hotel is well positioned for exploring Ragusa Ibla which is a fascinating town and the staff were able to recommend (and book a table) at other great places to eat.

“Very enjoyable stay!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 November 2011

We stayed here in Sept, 2011. The staff was very nice and eager to please. The location was great for easy access to wandering Ragusa Ibla. We, too, had a hard time finding the hotel, as you cannot drive up to the front door. We called the hotel and found out we were very close and the person working the desk went out on a deck to wave to us so we could see him.
Breakfast (included in our rate) was very good. EAT THE CROISSANTS!! They were warm and amazing!
We booked a 2 room suite and were glad we did. The decor is not my preference (modern), but the space was great and the bathrooms really nice. We had 2 bathrooms which helped get us out the door quicker than having to share one.
Overall, a great place!

Room Tip: Take the 2 room suite if it fits your budget. Had a very nice balcony, too!

“The Best in Ragusa”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 October 2011

We stayed in San Giorgio Palace Hotel in 2011 October 1st to 3rd.
Very courteous and helpful staff. Not many people knew English. But they were extremely helpful in getting their colleagues who knew English and help us.

Rooms are good. Location is perfect. The room we stayed had a great valley view.

Room Tip: Ask for the Valley View rooms (it is possible that all rooms have valley view)
