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.

Tough to find if no wifi, BUT -Simone was wonderful when we called the hotel saying we were lost. Simone stayed on the phone and talked us to the hotel. Met us at the car, showed us where to park, and helped with the luggage. The hotel is fabulous. It's built into the rocky hillside. Our room was spacious and modern. Good AC. Upon checking in, Michelle was just terrific in explaining about the breakfast, getting an afternoon beer, and where to eat. She even made a reservation for our dinner at the Osteria Imperfetta. Michelle and Simone were patient with my questions, as well. Morning breakfast is magnificent with the choices of breads, fruit, pastries, coffee, juice, joghurt and deli meat/cheese. Lastly, the hotel is situated close enough to all the restaurants and old city (Ibla is the part of Ragusa you are in) sites that a tourist would want to see. Great place and a great stay! Thank you Michelle, Simone, and all the friendly, helpful staff!
