Overall Ratings & Reviews Borgo Pantano

This property was excellent! Very close to town but beautiful property. We were only able to stay one night, but breakfast was wonderful. A huge spread was laid out and you didn’t know where to go to first. Staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. Rooms were very Clean I would highly recommend this place if you’re visiting Syracuse

Excellent hotel. Small enough not to feel the crowds. Excellent service. Excellent breakfast. Highly recommended.

We relied on reviews to stay at this property. Along the way, the road there made us skeptical as to what to expect. However, following the signs and arriving at the white gates opened us up to paradise. There are 2 pools, one salt with a jacuzzi, and the other enormous and elegant, complete with bar service. There is a fabulous restaurant on site, and a menu of spa services. Our room had a little outdoor patio and was clean and charming. Also, the complimentary breakfast was to die for! Our thanks to Jiuce and her wonderful staff. We will definitely be back again!

Excellent facilities — pool, table tennis, gym. Rooms were comfortable, although not spacious. Very good breakfast, with incredible variety and quantity of items on the buffet — although some items did not seem to be freshly made every morning. Would have been nice to have had homemade jams, rather than the packaged kind. Overall, very good service (especially front desk welcome, with very useful briefing on the resort and tips for visiting sights in the areas). Breakfast service was marred by odd delays in getting our coffee. Please note that resort is about 20 minutes drive from Ortigia, partly through potholed and narrow country roads. It’s a peaceful setting, but not close to dining options.

Stayed here 3 nights, the hotel is modern very clean and comfortable with very professional and helpful staff. All set in beautiful relaxing surroundings. The location is conveniently located to reach Siracusa with a shuttle service to the city (book @ €15 return x room). The breakfast was very good with a very extensive selection to choose from and along with the restaurant service helpful with pleasant atmospher. The large pool is beautiful, well maintained and a plesure to swim in. The staff are very attentive and their knowlede of the area excelant and very helpful. All in all a great experience so we would happily stay here again.

One of the most incredible properties to stay at in eastern Sicily! Staff was charming and welcoming. Super informative of the surrounding area. Spaces all over the property to enjoy. Cannot rant and rave enough about this place!! AMAZING!!

Lovely property filled with orange trees and flowers. The resort and spa made it a truly relaxing stay. Wonderful buffet breakfast! Shuttle into the city was convenient. The staff was extremely accommodating and professional.

Borgo Pantano fully deserves all its exceptional ratings - the owners and staff were wonderful, the food was excellent, the swimming pool is fantastic, it is very family friendly and they really have thought of everything. Great value too (earlier in our holiday we stayed in a hotel double the price and Borgo Pantano beat it hands down across many areas) - love this place!

I had really good experience at this hotel. Breakfast was the best one I've ever had at any restaurant over the world. There are so many kinds of Italian food and could not try all only for 3days. Unfortunately my son got heat stroke but the staffs were so kind to help us out for whole day. We could not enjoy Sicily as much as expected, but this hotel made our holiday very special and unforgettable.

Gorgeous grounds, particularly the swimming pool, nice rooms. Staff extremely helpful. Breakfast is stunning! Downside is the location as it's 15 minutes away from Ortigia. The hotel can arrange a taxi but they charge 10 euros (which isn't bad) but the timings of it aren't convenient. If you hire a car then it's perfect!

Assolutamente perfetto,

The staff without exception were friendly, welcoming and generally 1st class

It was so lovely that upon arrival we signed up for an extra night! Thank you so much to the lovely owner and her fantastic team. Wow!

The pool area was large beautiful and never crowded. Breakfast was brilliant-best I ‘ve ever had in an hotel

Amazing stay. Chilled and relaxed environment. Staff super helpful and welcoming. Delicious and plentiful breakfast. Lots of places to lounge in garden or by the pool. You will need a car as it’s quite remote.

Beautiful hotel with magnificent grounds and accomations. Welcoming, helpful staff made us feel very welcome! Food was amazing and the owner was so gracious and kind!

The hotel itself was beautiful and the staff was extremely welcoming. The room was spacious and really comfortable. The surrounding area left something to be desired but there was lots to do and see a short drive away. You absolutely need to hire a car if visiting this area as it’s quite remote.

Very nice place with an excellent staff and great food. Good base for exploring this part of Sicily. Room was good for us and our 2 children. A nice blend of modern and classic styles.

A beautiful hotel run by highly passionate and customer oriented staff. You can’t fault them for wanting to help you in every way. The pools and grounds were well designed and inviting, not too busy and not too boring, but offering just the right amount of relaxation. The outdoor restaurant dinner on the rooftop was delicious and the breakfast was the single greatest display of fine food I’ve ever seen at any 5 star hotel in the world...The Four Seasons would have a few things to learn from this breakfast. The owner greeted us at breakfast and in doing so, took responsibility for as the face of the hotel, which was much appreciated. Our requested baby cribs were set up prior to arrival, a good sign of customer care and organization. Our room was modern and functional, perhaps a bit sterile, but a welcome comfort after traveling in the countryside.

This is a wonderful hotel, set in the countryside outside Syracuse. Our junior suite was roomy and well-appointed, the pools were inviting and dinner in the restaurant was excellent. A special mention for breakfast, it really was world class. An amazing range of Sicilian tastes, savoury and sweet, with a warm welcome each morning too from the owner! It's a little out of town so a hire car is a real benefit. The hotel runs a shuttle but times are a little limited. We really loved the hotel and Sicilian hospitality and hope to visit again
