Palazzo Favacchio - Patanè

great historic building and very nice. good response and breakfast! Everything of it is excellent!

Central location nicely refurbished

outdoor noises but one has to consider that there was Easter celebrations.

WE! STAYED!! IN!!! A!!!! PALACE!!!!! It was lovely with high ceilings, flocked wallpaper, king bed, painted 12 foot ceilings. AND the shower was great. Breakfast was delicious. Staff were congenial and helpful.

I wish we didn’t have to leave!

We've liked the location, and the space on the room, the decoration, and all the details, the breakfast was very divers and tasty, The free public parking very close to the location.

We haved some problem with the shower.

Beautiful large and luxurious room. Excellent breakfast. Great location

A couple of wine glasses in the room would have been nice

Oh heavens - staying in a palace that lived up to its name was a highlight of our Sicilian trip. With painted ceilings in our room, wonderfully styled communal areas including in effect our living room, the most elegant of staircases and all the comforts we could want, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff were incredibly helpful getting us to the palace and then parked (thank you Eva and the other colleague who held our suitcase on his lap!), and gave us tons of information. Breakfast was just delicious - fresh and lots of choice - and the coffee was particularly good! It was all a delight and we’d love to come back.

Great location but we did have some trouble finding it. However the duty manager went out of his way to locate us and direct us to the car parking. The Palazzo is very close to the centro storico.The palazzo is stunning with fabulous decor.. Lovely to have extra room in shared seating area directly outside our room which we largely had to ourselves so like a huge suite and including a lovely outdoor balcony area we made use of. Breakfast plentiful and tasty with lots of lovely home made goodies. Scicli is a nice town, less touristy than its more famous neighbors, Modica and Ragusa.

The bacon and eggs were not kept hot for late arrivals. Not a big issue but worth mentioning. Otherwise all good.

The Palazzo is a modern type accommodation housed within a refurbished Palazzo. It is managed by a central agency that looks after multiple properties in Scicli. It was easy to find and there was free parking nearby. Staff came and met us at the property after a short wait. The rooms are large and airy but somewhat sparsely appointed. The bathroom was excellent with a large shower. The staff were very helpful and allowed us to stay longer in the formal dining room after we had checked out. The wifi worked well and we were able to stream live television from abroad. Perhaps the highlight was the breakfast which is served in a lovely little cafe housed in the lower floor. The food was amazing and plentiful and the cafe staff were lovely!

There were no glasses or other eating utensils in the room, nor any coffee facilities. We had to ask staff to bring some wine glasses from another property. There is no lift access to the upper floors which makes suitcases difficult. This is not really like staying in a real palazzo - very good accommodation but set your expectations realistically.

The staff is really friendly. Ignacio was a great host, very welcoming, shared important information, helped with the luggage and all our enquiries. Everyone else is quick, responsive and understanding.Gabriela and her colleague in the kitchen are amazing. They bake some amazing bread, cakes, pastries and sweets. The coffee is spot on - with great strength and aroma. They are really friendly, extremely fast and pretty accommodating. The interior design of the building is excellent (this is the main characteristic which brought our attention at first) The air conditioner worked properly at all times which is a must, especially in the hot summer days in Scicli. The cleaning service was spot on at all times.The soundproofing is really good although the busy night cocktail bar is just in front of the entrance of the hotel.The location is great. The train station is less then 10 min by walk in case you use train to get to Scicli or want to visit nearby cities, such as Modica, Ragusa, Notto, the Donnafugata castle etc. Overall, it was a great and lovely experience for a long awaited holiday. It is worth its price.

A few minor notes:Although the bathroom equipment is modern and well-functioning there was no toilet brush, which was surprising. It is not a 100 % necessity but its presence could improve the experience.The frequent change of the shower cups might improve the experience, too.The lovely common tea area might include some coffee or cold drinks station during the summer.

Staff were very accomodating to our request to have breakfast to take away as we needed to leave very early for our flight. The room and building interior was stunning.

The communication prior to arriving. This accomodation has NO on-site reception. I had been communicating through booking.com and so It was a surprise to me that there was no reception and instead was contacted via what’s app which I missed due to no internet - not all tourists will have internet. They what’s app you telling you to call them when you arrive and then someone from the satellite office comes to meet you. We didn’t know this and were sat outside the accomodation for over 2 hours as it’s impossible to get in without a swipe card. The building looks like it’s shut down and I actually don’t even recall there being a sign above to make it clear it is the palace!!! Really poor start to our trip and wasted our time.

Staying in a palace in a beautiful town with fewer tourists than most and mixing more with the locals.

What you see on the website is exactly what you get plus a bit more! Upon approach to the Palace there was absolutley no doubt in where we were heading. We were met by a member of the staff at the front door and from there on in, our experience simply got better. The concept of staying in a 'palace' became a reality once walking through the front door. Everything about the palace says opulence, welcome and enjoy. We chose a room with a balcony and a view over the canal plus the option for people watching. High ceilings with our own ceiling fresco added to the experience. Breakfast was outstanding. Everything in Scicli is within easy walking distance and the restaurant choice is outstanding.

Nothing to add.

The Palazzo was the highlight of our three weeks in Sicily. Eva went above and beyond, so generous with her time, expertise and enthusiasm. The property is magnificent, with the perfect location, beautiful setting and quiet neighborhood.

Very lovely and spacious rooms, top quality bathroom, furniture, and a comfortable bed. The location is excellent being central for the old town. This is a beautiful old palazzo well converted for hotel accommodation. The staff were very helpful and responsive to requests.

The breakfast is fine but is more 3* - no hot food is provided, just a buffet of bread, cakes, and fruit etc.

Spacious room, nice breakfast & very nice location

Very attentive staff. We arrived late and we were met by Eva who was very helpful.

The breakfast was ok. Not exceptional.
