Baglio Santacroce

Excellent stay and nice setting. Good food and excellent facilities. Pillows and beds need an upgrade because they are not comfortable at all.

Wir waren Anfang Mai für 1 Woche in diesem Hotel. Die gesamte Anlage war für die Saison top hergerichtet. Hotel besteht aus einem traditionellen Bau u. einem Neubau. Unser Zimmer war ein "Traditionelles", sehr geschmackvoll renoviert, allerdings klein mit sehr kleinem Bad, leider auch sehr hellhörig. Außenbereich sehr schön, Hanglage, toller Ausblick auf Meer u. Umgebung, gepflegter Pool. Frühstücksbuffet wiederholte sich tägl., war aber gut (tägl. frisches Obst, frische Cornettos), auf Wunsch versch. Kaffee. Restaurant bietet Regionales in guter Qualität. Lage eignet sich zum Erkunden des N/W der Insel mit dem Auto. Für Strandbegeisterte weniger geeignet.

We stayed only one night in one of the traditional rooms but we liked it. Two small windows (one was on the floor!) with wooden shutters and a little balcony you could crawl out onto for a fantastic view of the water and countryside. It was a bit warm in the room so maybe too much in the summer but it was still cool enough in May. The only irritating part was the shower which was just a curtained off section of the bathroom. Shaving in this is a nightmare unless you like wet cloth sticking to you as you try to balance on one leg and not end up in the bidet! Breakfast was nothing special but at least there was meat and cheese. They keep the grounds of this hotel well maintained so it has lots of charm and smelled clean everywhere.

Gradevole, camera accogliente, ottimo ristorante. Molto bello il giardino che circonda l'albergo e la piscina, ma quello che colpisce è il panorama, veramente stupendo.

wonderful place and service; the location and friendly staff made this a memorable stay

Great location to visit sites like Segesta, Erice, Marsala, and Trapani, high above a bay on NW coast of Sicily. Out of town, no other dining options than the hotel, which was ok but not fabulous tho' the restaurant views were breathtaking of sea and mountains in the distance. Good wine, fair prices. Our booking made over a month ahead, was for a "traditional room" - when we arrived we were told none was available and we were put in the "new wing". Pleasant tho' small, nice garden view, good bath and A/C (which wasn't yet working, due to our early June arrival, and honestly, not yet needed). We were relocated the next day to a traditional room - very quaint, stone walls, farm-like, but darker and no A/C which could be a problem in the later summer, tho' breezes flowed thru the non-screened windows (had bars, kinda' like a prison cell, a bit disconcerting). The bath was more primitive than the newer room, water flow in shower barely strong at all, nor very hot. Charming, but.....

We based our stay on a photo and comments from the Eyewitness Travel book, showing a lovely old stone room with a carved beam ceiling. We asked for, and were given, a room in the old building. Imagine our surprise when we were shown into a motel-white room with no ambiance at all: paper-thin walls, plastic drinking cups, a cracked toilet seat... I speak Italian, and mentioned that the room wasn't like the picture we'd seen, and that we were a little disappointed by that. Our receptionist shrugged her shoulders and agreed. That said, it's fine. The location is terrific for exploring Erice, Segesta, even Selinunte. The restaurant is average and convenient.

We were very disappointed as we drove near as the implication was that the hotel was high on a hill alone. It is off quite a busy main road which is a very unattractive shopping street The photos of hotel made it look delightful which it is from some angles, But the new part is just a modern box and the room we were shown to was not nice at all. We asked to be in old part of hotel (the photographed bit) and were told no a/c but as it was not that hot and we were only staying 3 days we took it at an extra 10 euros per night. However when we got into bed the first night the sheets were damp! Rectified the next day however. The restaurant has great views but is pretty grim and food not great. A long drive to get anywhere with good food.

In the middle of a chaotic area of Catania sits this little green, cool gem. There was nothing about it that we would criticize. We stayed there because of its proximity to the airport .... which we reached in about twenty minutes.

we arrived at the hotel, the views are amazing....the old part of the hotel is very rustic and well kept. unfortunatley we found the staff not so friendly or communative. breakfast is very very basic......we dined in the restuarnat on our first night,the waiting staff were very "limp" food was ok!!! ish!!! the pool is used twice weekly for 3 hours (10am to 1pm)for the local kids swimming club, so if ya out by the pool chilling, and fancy a cool dip in the pool......hard luck!!!! was disappionted that the guests were not notified of these weekly events. the farmhouse is where we stayed,(no ac, just fans) the rooms are very "oldy woldy" loved it!! its a shame that it lacked these things that could make this more recommendable/ good for a one to two night stop over....only.
