Il Podere Hotel Restaurant

Petite étape très appréciée dans cet hôtel. Personnel très accueillant et disponible. Nous avons bien profité des deux belles piscines.
Le petit déjeuner compris est copieux et varié.
Belles plages à 5 minutes en voiture.
A recommander pour une étape ou un séjour .

Hôtel qui n est plus un 4 etoiles, installation veillissante décor sombre et ancien. Restaurant fermé, et pas de petit dejeuner en terrasse et un parc pour enfants non entretenu.
Hôtel situé dans un cadre pas très agreable, rien autour à plusieurs km à la ronde.
Seul point positif : une piscine agréable et un personnel relativement serviable.

Staff was very friendly and kind. The rooms are large with enough space for our lugage. We had our own terrasse. The pool was great.

Rustige plek, Italiaanse bouwstijl, vriendelijk personeel alleen slecht Engels (1 iemand kan Engels). Ontbijt karig, vooral zoet en geen gewone broodjes. Twee heerlijke zwembaden en kamers prima (douche soms koud).

We had a beautiful stay at Il Podere. It was in such a relaxing settling and every single staff member we encountered greeted us with kindness. The owners were welcoming and made us really feel at home. The pools looked beautiful and the breakfast in the morning was abundant. The rooms were clean and comfortable. We will be staying here again the next time we have an opportunity to visit Siracusa!

Note positive la piscina e le camere confortevoli

Da migliorare il fatto che le colazioni non hanno indicazioni sui gusti dei cornetti/succhi quindi ci vai a sorpresa

Nota negativa i pozzetti piscina aperti, molto pericolosi per i bambini.

Per il resto tutto ok

La mia esperienza è molto positiva ci tornerei e lo raccomanderei! La location molto bella è un casale in pietra calcarea si sposa perfettamente con il luogo, un pò fuori mano a circa 8km da Siracusa ma questo lo rende un LUOGO DI PACE dove godersi il silenzio e la tranquillità. Oltretutto da lì è comodo raggiungere le altre località belle e turistiche del territorio. Le camere comode e PULITE! Dotate terrazzino con tavolino e sedie e di aria condizionata, la tv un pò piccola (è un monitor)...ma la sera d'estate non c'è bisogno della tv se nn per le notizie. C'è la piscina immersa nel prato verde con ombrelloni e lettini. La colazione buona, ma soprattutto il personale gentilissimo, collaborativo, disponibile e non invadente! Il sorriso, la disponibilità, i consigli e l'accoglienza di Rossana completano il tutto come un ciliegina sulla torta. GRAZIE!

I booked this as a last-minute getaway and things started off well enough. The structure itself is quite beautiful and very tastefully furnished and decorated with two wondeful pools. The very friendly receptionist informed us straight away that there were wedding banquets booked for both evenings we would be staying there, which didn't bother us at all, but I heard some other guests complaining the next morning at breakfast about not being able to sleep until late (from the looks of things, it seems like banquets are this place's bread-and-butter business). Unfortunately, even the the name is "Il Podere Hotel e Ristorante", we were also informed that the on-site restaurant is no longer in operation, so we had to venture out for our meals. Again, this was not a problem for us, but for anyone expecting to spend their entire stay on the premises, I can see how it would be an annoyance to make that discovery upon arrival. The evening/night receptionist was very helpful, even loaning us a phone charger that we had forgotten. Breakfast was fine, nothing out of this world, but all very good. The day before we were due to check out, I asked the morning/daytime receptionist if it would be a problem for us to spend a few hours at the hotel pool after checking out, and he acted as if it would be a huge inconvenience, telling us in the end that it would be OK "maybe for about an hour. Long story short, we turned up to check out the next morning well before the 11:00 deadline (at around 10:20) and he immediately informed us that, despite having told us (begrudgingly) that we'd be able to stay and use the hotel pool, due to "force majeure" (not sure he really knows the meaning of that term), we would not, in fact, be permitted to do so. We told him that this was the first time we had ever been denied the use of a hotel pool after checkout time, but he insisted that it just wasn't possible, due to the famous, aforementioned "force majeure". Irritated, but not wanting to spoil what had been an otherwise pleasant and charming getaway weekend, I didn't bother asking to speak with the manager but rather politely made sure he was aware of my displeasure and toom my leave.

A éviter. Le personnel est désagréable.

Struttura bella ma poco curata.
Si parla di 2 piscine (1 sempre chiusa, l'altra fruibile dalle 10 alle 18 ovvero quando sei a mare o a visitare la zona.. veramente un servizio scarso), doccie e lettini trascurati, nessun addetto alla sorveglianza, un sacco di divieti per l'uso della piscina.. decisamente non a misura di bambino.
Gestione poco attenta e cordiale: la direttrice non saluta e non si ricorda degli ospiti (su 10 camere), nessuna informazione sui servizi dell'hotel e sulla zona, uniche informazioni su opuscoli con offerte vecchie di mesi nelle camere.
Colazione veramente scarsa sia pwr varietà che per qualità (pane secco e altri alimenti riproposti dal giorno prima), scarsa pulizia dei tavoli e attezzature vecchie e o in cattivo stato.
Posizione scomoda per visitare la zona a 6km dall'autostrada, in mezzo alla campagna raggiungibile su strade invase da vegetazione, strette e con fondo sconnesso.. vivina a Siracusa ma se volio vedere solo qualla prendo un hotel in città.
Bagno piccolo con doccia in plastica e acqua calda non pervenuta.
Tv minuscola, aria condizionata esigua, vetri delle finestre sporchi.
Servizio decisamente non all'altezza della categora dell'albergo e del prezzo pagato (30% più alto per notte rispetto alle altre 3 strutture visitate in questo viaggio in cui ci siamo trovati davvero bene su tutto).

Piscina ok. Mancava la manutenzione delle piccole cose.
Non abbondano i sorrisi.

sì tratta di una bella struttura a circa 7-8 km da Siracusa. Personale gentile e disponibile ma l'hotel ha alcuni problemi di cui il più serio è la mancanza di acqua calda. In realtà lasciando aperto il rubinetto per alcuni minuti l'acqua diventa leggermente tiepida accettabile forse in piena estate ma assolutamente insufficiente adesso che la.temperatura esterna è di circa 18 gradi. Anche la colazione è deludente

We had a little trouble finding the hotel, but once we were there, it was lovely....out in the countryside and the room was lovely.

Arrived here with friends on a food and wine tour.
Greeted by a friendly receptionist who informed us no food was available and the bar was shut.
This was about 7.30 in the evening!!!!
She did get us a couple of drinks from the closed bar and some crisps.We had been driving for over 3 hours so did not want to go out again as this hotel is in the middle of nowhere and a lot of the roads were flooded.
The water was cold and it took a few visits to reception the next morning to finally get warm water.The safe in our room didn’t work and we were told it would be sorted but never was.
Breakfast the next morning was really poor.Cold scrambled eggs and bacon which was never replenished and not enough for 6 people staying in the hotel!!!!!
Miserable waiter who if he had smiled his face would have cracked.
Very rude receptionist when we returned that afternoon telling us not to ring the bell at the gate and front door more than once !!!!!!!!
The bar and restaurant were also closed that evening .
Not that you would want to eat there anyway.....
All 4 of us travel widely and have never stayed in such a dismal place.
On the second day we were the only guests.
I’m sure it’s a scam where they have taken money to restore these old farmhouses into hotels for a certain period of time and then say they are not a viable business so the owners get to revert them back to grand residences on government grants.
The irony is they have a leaflet in the room saying you are not allowed to bring in your own food and drink !!!!
Quite ironic as you can’t get anything to eat or drink.
AVOID this place it’s dire

Struttura molto bella nelle campagne appena fuori Siracusa, il soggiorno è stato abbastanza rilassante non fosse per le donne delle pulizie che cominciano i lavori alle 8 del mattino. Il personale non da molta confidenza e questo non mi ha messo a mio agio, comprendo la volontà di dare un’immagine di struttura di livello ma a mio parere limita gli ospiti. Colazione a qualsiasi ora mancante di brioche e con le pellicole trasparenti sui cornflakes. Peccato perché con poco il servizio sarebbe ben più valorizzato.

Hôtel reposant chambres spacieuses piscine agréable.
Dommage que les petits déjeuners ne puissent être pris à l'extérieur sur la terrasse .

Nice clean hotel with friendly staffs but the location and the breakfast not so good

Il Podere Hotel is a lovely hotel situated in a beautiful countryside. The view to that was beautiful from my bedroom. There is a nice swimming pool with cosy surroundings and a playground for the children. The breakfast and the service was very good.

totally off season. wonderful breakfast, dinners OK. Hotel is out in the middle of nowhere with some roadside signage to locate, very friendly staff, great grounds, private, quiet, had fun on Sunday watching the local Aeroporta paraglider jumpers...Would stay there again. the building was a classic.

Bella la location, la stanza che ci hanno dato era al piano terra con la finestra che dava sulla piscina quindi se passava gente vedeva dentro. Inoltre per accedere al bagno dovevi chiuderla altrimenti non passavi.
