This is such an amazing place! Staff very welcoming, explained a lot about the place and the surroundings (and how to get there, as the hotel is a bit out of the way, but once you get the idea of where you are, it's easy) and nearby beaches. The whole place is a wonderful mix of old (style) and modern... More

Had a great time here the staff was friendly and spoke french english and flemish seeing a flemish-Italian girl worked there and did a superb job at that. We had room 120 wich was pretty ok were it not that the toilet was running 24/7 and this HUGE airco was sitting next to the outside wall. The swimmingpool and pool... More

I enjoyed the Borgo Pantano. The service, as mentioned by almost everyone, is terrific. The staff is very eager to make the guests stay an enjoyable one. The grounds are incredible, very stylish and expansive, with many areas scattered here and there for lounging. The rooms are well done, well appointed and clean as a whistle. The pool is very...

Like others have said, a bit hard to locate, but email for directions and that solves the problem. The citrus trees were in bloom and the air was so delightful you hated to go inside. Since there are no screens on windows..typical of all of Sicily...the mosquitoes can be a bit of a problem if you leave the windows open.... More

This is an outstanding hotel with beautifully presented rooms. We had a suite on two levels, very tastefully decorated in white and purple, with a large balcony. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, offering advice and information, always with a smile. Breakfasts were excellent and taken on a lovely terrace. Dinners were also very good and reasonably priced. The... More

Spent a wonderful night here with my husband last week. Arrived hot and tired from Catania and found ourselves in a cool white oasis. Check in was one of the best I've ever experienced, they went out of their way to find the perfect room for us. The pool area is very inviting and although there were several couples with... More

Quite simply superb. A real haven. The owners have created a wonderfully stylish, light, bright and modern hotel in a traditional Sicilian setting, with delightfully calm and spacious grounds and pool.  We found the whole experience terrific. The staff are so friendly and welcoming – they really seemed to want you to thoroughly enjoy your stay at the hotel –... More

This is a very pleasant hotel. It is located away from the old town, in a very quiet place, on large grounds in the country. Though a little hard to find, it is worth the effort. (you get a detailed description of how to get there). The rooms are large and nicely furnished with modern ameneties. The beds are very... More

Borgo Pantano is a beautiful countryside retreat, about 20 minutes by car  from Syracusa's old town: Ortigia. Although it wasn't the easiest of places to find - once off the autostrada the roads are generally narrow, pot-holed and poorly sign posted - it was well worth the 3 hour drive from Palermo.  The hotel has very friendly, polite and helpful staff,...
