Tai buvo blogiausias viešbutis iš visų aplankytų Sicilijoje.
Pros:

Tik vieta.

Cons:

Ištaigingas numeris buvo cokoliniame aukšte. Patekimas per gausybę laiptų. Viename numeryje jautiesi pelėsio kvapas,apie kondencionierių matėsi juodas pelėsis. Visą naktį gaudė kažkoks agregatas, lojo šunys. Lauko baldai šlapi, matyt po lietaus. Iš anksto buvome užsakę vakarienę restorane "Le Terrazza".Gavome rezervacijos patvirtinimą. Bet atvykus pasirodė,kad jis uždarytas.Mums niekas nepaaiškino ir nusiuntė į SPA pastate esantį barą. Maistas nepatiko, dalį palikome lėkštėse. Personalas net nepasidomėjo kodėl. Susidaro toks įspūdis,kad piktnaudžiaujama vieta.O klientas visai neįdomus.

Pros:

The location cannot be beat. The view of the temple makes it a very special place to stay.

It was a bit pricey but the view makes it worth it.

Location to temples in a very good hotel
Pros:

So close to the temples, lovely restaurant- food great and service fantastic. Room was comfortable, clean and good size

Cons:

Not a dislike but take an uber to the old town as parking and driving tricky on the small streets. In addition to the temples the old town on the hill is worth seeing and having a meal there

Pros:

Wonderful location within the valley of the temples. Staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. A very comfortable place to stay.

Cons:

Whilst restaurant staff were very friendly and efficient, dinner food was tasteless. Crockery and glasses were worn and marked. Dinner service did not live up to standard of the hotel.

Perfect location and access to Greek ruins in brilliant condition.
Pros:

Perfect location and beautiful rooms. Small but I was upgraded to a room with a beautiful Greek ruins. The staff was friendly and kind but check out, which is usually around noon in higher. Luxury resorts was at 11 AM forcing us to rush to wake up have breakfast pack and get out quickly.

Cons:

It is a small luxury hotel of the world so it should be tied also to Hilton but because I couldn’t book directly as they said, they had no rooms through the Hilton website I booked through booking. They were kind and helpful, but I lost all possible perks, and points. It is a good reminder to always check booking even when you go directly through any Brand services that you were loyal to. I find if I can’t find directly what I want I hop onto booking and they help. The problem is I had to pay more for a room and didn’t get the top upgrade. I normally would’ve got and then also had to pay extra for the breakfast, which is usually free for a Diamond member at Hilton. But I’m so happy that booking did have the room as I really wanted to stay here in this beautiful Location.

Practically in the Valley of Temples!
Pros:

Excellent location if you’d like to stay just outside agrigento close to the valley of temples (the hotel has its own entrance to the site). The staff are very attentive and friendly.

Cons:

certain areas look a bit tired and the restaurant (albeit serving excellent food) could be nicer and less clinical. There are also no slippers in the room which is strange for a hotel of this Calibre.
