Experience a stay like no other at the distinguished Borgo Pantano, a beautiful manor farm erected over 150 years ago and restored in 2009. The hotel is in the peaceful area of Cozzo Pantano, roughly 7km outside the inner city of Syracuse. The attention to detail exuding from the building reveals the passion and knowledge the owners have of the area, making it obvious the property is family run. The Borgo Pantano is split into two sections, with both sets of rooms encapsulating the bucolic charm of south east Sicily with its choice in minimalist design and locally sourced furniture, manufactured by Sicilian artisans. Guests can enjoy strolls through the verdant green gardens, whilst stopping to take a dip in the large swimming pool. Given the clear show of appreciation for Sicilian culture and heritage, it is no surprise that the hotel can organise a shuttle service to Syracuse centre; here you can gain a further understanding of the origins surrounding this diverse island by visiting some of the top attractions, like the Greek Theatre.
The hotel has 32 rooms (official rating 4 star). Minimum stay 3 nights during July and August.

This was an exceptional place to relax near Siracusa. The grounds were exceptionally beautiful, with large expanses of green lawn, gorgeous pools. The owner and rest of staff were so welcoming and the meals were served in a facility draped in sheer white curtains, like something out of Arabian nights. Beautiful courtyard with lots of comfy resting places. The buffet breakfast would rival any top chef...so much to choose from. Comfy rooms and not all the same. Highly recommend if you want a relaxing spot while visiting this area.

Excellent resort facilities, with pool, gym, table tennis. Lovely grounds. Comfortable rooms, although average size. Very good breakfast, with incredible variety and quantity of items on the buffet — although some items did not seem to be freshly made daily. Breakfast service was marred by odd delays in getting our coffee. Staff were friendly and helpful, especially front desk welcome ( very useful briefing on resort amenities and tips for visiting area). Please note that the hotel is about 20 minutes drive from Ortigia, some of it through potholed and narrow country road. Nice peaceful setting, but limited dining options nearby.
