Charme Hotel Villa Principe di Fitalia

Where do I start. The interior of the hotel, feels like the designer had a day off. A mismatch of everything going on. The Spa and Gym however, for a hotel are superb and I can not say enough good things. The Hotel and complex is prefab and feels pretty cheap, the staff are friendly but very slow. Breakfast was greasy if you try the omlet and the coffee is terrible. No cushions on any of the sun loungers, therefore you are restricted on what you can lay on. Making 80% of the beds unusable. The weather (1st week of sept 23) hasn’t been good and therefore you realise how much out on a limb, this place is and nothing to do, once the workouts finished. Approx 8km to the city centre, so not too bad and the centre is very nice. Sound proofing between rooms is non existent, so bring your ear plugs.

We stayed for 2 nights in this hotel. It is very nice, everyone is very friendly. The indoor pool from the spa is great. The breakfast was very good and you can also choose from a menu some dishes. The coffee is also great. The room was big, good mattress and pillows. We really enjoyed our stay.

This is wonderful oasis of calm - with exceptional service from check in - to a wonderful restaurant team . They catered for fussy vegetarian, meat eater & pescatarian at the same table . The whole team is attentive, focused on customer service . The bar staff - made exceptional milkshake on our final day - complimentary. The housekeeper team - insured they were discreet but the our suite was always immaculate . The Spa team - what can I say true value for money - wonderful treatments we indulged in daily- after visiting the central Siracusa & Ortegia - via the free shuttle bus . So you get the whole experience by staying here . Going back - telling all my friends . Thank you to whole team - we have never had such personalised care - have travelled over 80 countries between us .

Firstly I couldn’t believe how quick I had a response to a few special requested I had requested for my partners 40th birthday before arriving at the hotel, they went above and beyond and nothing was too much trouble, the ladies in reception were so kind and welcoming and the hotel was so clean, and smelt amazing - our room was so spacious, clean and had everything you could want inside, I was so pleased with the amount of space I haven’t yet experience that much space for a room during our trip to Sicily before, there is a free service to take you to the city, it took 15 minutes and we were so impressed with this, the drivers are so kind too and really cared about they job they were doing . breakfast was perfect we had everything we wanted and for us location was perfect , I can honestly say I have paid a lot more per stay and never had a service like I have had here - this hotel goes above and beyond. we got to chill all day by the pool and see ortiga in the evening and have the best of both worlds we will be back, thank you so so much

Our stay was an exceptional experience from the moment we arrived; we were offered a glass of prosecco by the lady on reception, which was brought to us whilst we waited in the outside seating area. The spa facilities are top notch, the gym is well equipped with everything you would expect from a modern gym. The indoor pool was fabulous, with loungers and casual seating areas, which were all very clean and hygienic. The two outdoor pools are fabulous. The larger pool was cleaned most days, so it is always hygienic & inviting. There is a plentiful supply of day beds and sun loungers around the pool, you really are spoilt for choice. The poolside bar was open during the weekend. There is also a children’s pool with a flume and water umbrella. We used the hotel minibus to visit Ortigia. You just need to pre book your departure and pick up times with reception. It is free and available for everyone staying at the hotel. The cleaning staff were very hard working and made an exceptional job of keeping our suite spotless. In the suites private garden area, there were loungers, a sofa and a coffee table along with a hot tub and sauna. Our room was modern, light and roomy with great air con in all areas. We had 2 TVs, but we didn’t use either of them as the hotel facilities and grounds were too good to spend time inside. The staff went out of their way to ensure we wanted for nothing and provided first class service throughout our stay. The waiting staff at both breakfast and dinner were very knowledgeable and helped us choose wine with our dinner on several occasions. It was my partners birthday whilst we were on holiday and they made him a birthday cake, which was very thoughtful. The food is a gastronomic delight. It is beautifully presented and well cooked. Do ask for the specials as they are such a treat. We had a rib eye steak one evening and it was mouth-watering. The staff really did make our holiday fabulous, they are attentive without being intrusive and we made some wonderful memories at Principe di Fitalia, which we will cherish forever.

Really lovely stay, great facilities indoor and outdoor and the service team were just lovely. Free shuttle bus to town which we used rather than drive. Short drive to beaches. We treated ourselves to a room with a hot tub which was a super treat on an evening when the temperature dropped.
