The opulence and beauty of Italy's storied past is told within the walls of Sicily's Antica Badia Relais Hotel. Borrowing its name from the Italian phrase meaning "ancient abbey", Antica Badia pays homage to the region's history in eloquent detail, from the soaring Roman arches over entryways to the perfectly preserved 18th century ceramic flooring. Masterfully redesigned and recently reopened, historians and international jet-setters alike will find the perfect vacation destination in the richness and classic style of Antica Badia Relais Hotel. Boasting just twelve expansive rooms and suites, each space is uniquely designed and thoughtfully appointed, offering every guest a piece of history. The finest Italian textiles drape the arched windows that draw abundant natural light into the airy, spacious rooms. Simple and sophisticated in design, plush custom furnishings and elegant details like vaulted ceilings add character to the traditional beauty of each room, while an attentive, yet unobtrusive staff exceeds your every expectation with turndown service, in-room dining, and 24-hour concierge service.

This is a lovely property in a charming area of Ragusa. It is not in old town, but we enjoyed the location. Easy street parking. Across from a beautiful cathedral and close to good restaurants, excellently recommended by the front desk. We booked a superior room with a balcony and a view. The room was not very large, but nicely appointed with the most comfortable bed ever in Italy. Nice linens and top quality toiletries. I would recommend an internal view, our “view” was negligible and the balcony too small to make practical use of. The street was noisy with the window open. Good soundproofing. We made use of the Turkish bath- which is not a bath but a steam room and not particularly hot. Complementary drink on the roof, you do need to go to the front desk to order it. The breakfast was stellar, set in a charming baroque reception room. The employees were all top.

Beautiful restored 18th century palace, very friendly and professional staff, great breakfast, excellent location, large underground parking lot (Palazzo dell'Aquila) less than 100m away. Luca's advice on restaurants and places to go is peerless.

This hotel is a former palace so the room is decorated in baroque style. The breakfast room is beautiful with a very good breakfast and service. That’s all for the positives Firstly , it’s not located at the older , historic part of town. It’s about 30 min walk down the hill and multiple stairs and then 30 min walk back up the stairs and up the hill. I booked the suite since we were traveling with 2 kids and got a large room with 2 uncomfortable foldable beds for the kids. When asked for a beach towel, was told that the charge was 5 euros per person ( charge , not a deposit!!). I would advise to stay elsewhere in beautiful Ragusa.
