About the location
Ragusa (setting of the TV detective show Inspector Montalbano) is one of Sicily’s most photogenic towns, a jumble of baroque buildings sprawled across a hillside in the UNESCO-listed Val di Noto. It’s split into two parts; Ragusa Ibla is the older, more traditional area, while Ragusa Superiore has a more modern feel.
Ragusa Ibla is a warren of atmospheric lanes, which wind down the hillside and open out into sunny piazzas every so often. Look out for the Duomo di San Giorgio, one of the island’s grandest cathedrals, and the Giardino Ibleo, a leafy park with lovely valley views. Head up to Ragusa Superiore and you’ll find another cathedral, plus shops, cafes and photo-worthy views across Ragusa Ibla and the surrounding area.
Ragusa is an ideal base for exploring southern Sicily. Discover the equally beautiful towns of Noto and Modica, head to the beach for the day, or make a trip to stunning Syracuse.

Ragusa Ibla is a beautiful town high up on a hill. The views are great. We enjoyed San Giorgio Palace because it had an excellent bed, reasonable shower and great breakfast. The staff were very helpful and guided us to a simple but delicious pasta dinner at La Trattoria Botella.

Lovely hotel with well designed and spacious rooms. Plenty of space for bags and clothing. Bath is generously sized with a terrific water pressure, beautiful marble tile and natural light. Staff is very professional, friendly and helpful. There is a wonderful bar with very creative cocktails. Comfortable and nicely sized bed and top quality linens and towels. The room was spotlessly clean and the room was cleaned quickly and thoroughly. Excellent location. Highly recommend.

Beautiful building and wonderful service!
Most helpful even before arriving, gave us directions on WhatsApp when we got a bit lost. The decor is interesting, elegant and unique. The room was very comfortable and the breakfast varied and delicious. The friendliness of the staff from reception to breakfast is truly outstanding.
Location is excellent, allows easy walk to the Duomo and restaurants and a bit longer but pleasant walk for those in shape (there are many stairs up and down) to the upper city of Ragusa; there are buses one can take if desired.

Everything was fine but we found the room to be heavily scented/perfumed, like they may have been trying to mask someone previously smoking in the room. Bed was comfortable, shower was good, service friendly. Great location, couple minutes walk to Duomo.
