Relais Terre di Romanello

Lovely location and very comfortable rooms

I bring every year groups of travelers around Sicily. This time the experience was terrible. As our bus could not reach the lobby area, they came to pick up our luggage at the road (exactly 150 meters uphill). At the end of the 3 days stay I was charged 14 euros per person for luggage service. Multiply that for 15 and see how much I was charged. The dinner with a set menu was the worse dinner ever in Sicily, even though I should say Italy. I am a restaurateur and my trips are based always on good food and wines. The meal served was a poor appetizer of Bresaola that you could see was bought already sliced at a grocery store, with a bit of Arugula and no cheese or olive oil whatsoever. The pasta alla Norma had good flavour, but the portion was probably 40 grams per person, and there was almost no cheese on it. Then came the steak…. It was hard as a timberland shoe, denoting that it was a piece of meat just been de thawed a few hours earlier, no flavour, no spices and totally inedible. The lemon sorbet was good, but that’s what you expect in Sicily. We all left our steak and I complained with the Manager the morning after, just to have 22 euros deducted from the 50 which was the cost per person of the dinner. The breakfast is poor and you always have to ask for items that are missing or finished. Overall a bad experience, which is disappointing the most. I will not bring my groups back. There are many spots in Noto which are as beautiful and with much better service.

Beautiful peaceful grounds and modern, clean rooms. We arrived around 8pm and ep
