Pros:

The room was stunning, the hotel itself is beautiful and the food was incredible. The proximity to the Valley of the Temples is it's truly stand out feature.

Cons:

We chose this hotel for our honeymoon, but unfortunately, the service fell flat. A couple of staff members were lovely, but overall interactions felt cold, indifferent, and perfunctory. It didn't ruin our trip, but the lack of warmth made us feel unwelcome, so we wouldn't stay here again. This was my first 5 star stay so maybe that's normal.

Super recomendo
Pros:

Hotel maravilhoso, com uma estrutura excelente, piscina, spa, restaurante. Se pudesse não ia mais embora de lá!
Tem uma vista incrível para o vale dos templos e também uma entrada exclusiva para o vale dos templos. Se precisar, eles também oferecem visita guiada.
O café da manhã é muito bom, nível superior, com muitas opções. Além de tomar café no jardim com uma linda vista.
O quarto era confortável, ótima cama e travesseiros.
O chuveiro também era muito bom, os amenities eram da marca Ortigia, de excelente qualidade.
A Chiara massagista do spa, faz uma massagem excelente, super recomendo. Vale a pena agendar uma massagem com ela.
Se você estiver de carro, há estacionamento no local e eles não cobram. O que é raro na Itália!

A wonderful hotel with excellent facilities, including a pool, spa, and restaurant. If I could, I’d never leave!
It offers an incredible view of the Valley of the Temples and even has a private entrance to the site. They also offer guided tours if needed.
The breakfast is excellent—top-notch, with a wide variety of options—and you can enjoy it in the garden with a beautiful view.
The room was comfortable, with a great bed and pillows.
The shower was also excellent, and the toiletries were high-quality products from the brand Ortigia.
Chiara, the spa masseuse, gives an excellent massage; I highly recommend her. It is well worth booking a massage with her.

Cons:

A equipe do café da manhã era um pouco rude, sem paciência.

5 Star Logging with Ancient Greek Temple View
Pros:

Location to the Valley of the Templed. 5 star service, accommodation and food. Live piano music at dinner overlooking an Ancient Greek Temple.

Cons:

Thought NOT having Kleenex in the rooms for a 5 star Resort was odd.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. From visiting the Temples, to a long leisurely day by the pool!
Pros:

Nothing to not like about this stay. Our room was lovely, well fitted out, comfy bed, large bathroom and outdoor seating area with view of the temples. Pool and staff were exceptional.

Cons:

Lots of wasps. Not sure thats controllable but was a bit annoying at breakfast.

Pros:

La vue sur les ruines est magique. Le petit déjeuner est très copieux, le personnel est très professionnel. Gros plus pour le bar, qui vous donne plus à grignoter qu'imaginer.

Cons:

La chambre était correcte.

Beautiful hotel with beautiful views
Pros:

Beautiful property with fantastic views of the temples. Easy walk to the temples. Beautifully decorated hotel, the temple view room was large with a small window but great views. Fun port hole window in bathroom with temple view. The property is beautifully manicured with old trees shading the breakfast area, the à la carte breakfast was delicious. A lovely pool area also. We highly recommend staying here.

Cons:

The overpriced room service.

Cons:

벌과 함께하는 조식은 조금 힘들었음
그리고 고객을 응대하는 직원은 많이 아쉬움
포레스트 돌로미티와 라플라쥬 리조트와 많이

Hotel muy bien ubicado venido a menos
Pros:

Es un hotel que tiene una ubicación excelente en el valle de los reyes, pero que debe mejorar en muchos aspectos para mantener el precio cobrado por habitación. El desayuno es bueno y completo y tiene entrada directa al valle de los reyes.

Cons:

Varias cosas no me gustaron del hotel: una noche de las dos que estuvimos coincidió con un espectaculo en el valle de los reyes que empieza aprox a las 4 am y que dado que las habitación que estuvimos no estaba insonorizada nos despertó a toda la familia escuchando opera a un volumen considerable, el desayuno se sirve en un comedor que debido a los arboles deja suciedad constante en las mesas, la sensación constante de necesidad de colocarte la cena a precios desorbitados por persona.. Todos estos puntos junto a una falta de inversión, denota un hotel muy bueno de una epoca pasada venido un poco a menos

Superb
Pros:

What an absolute treat to stay at Villa Athena, the stand out accomodation on our Sicily trip, not to say our other accomodation was not so good just that Villa Athena was exceptional. The location within the archeological park allowed access to the valley of the temples through a private entrance as well as spectacular views of the temple of Concordia both day and lit up at night. The pool was lovely, the fitness centre whilst small was decked out with quality cardio and resistance machines as well as some free weights. The service was impeccable without being over the top, the breakfast and dinner were superb. Highly recommend you splurge on this accomodation if planing on visiting the valley of the temples Agrigento.

Cons:

Nothing
