In our humble opinion, you can’t find a better host in RAGUSA than the owners of Il DUOMO de RELAIS! My wife and I have different priorities when it comes to hotels and it’s frustrating when disagreements turn into arguments. We try to compromise and alternate who picks the hotel in the next town as we drive around the island of Sicily. In Ragusa, a UNESCO world heritage site, she chose Duomo Relais because of the balcony behind the Cathedral Dome and the unexpected happened. God orchestrated it to heal me (Romans 8:38). In my personal relationship with my Heavenly Father I struggled to accept His loving grace because I’m not the “model” husband or father and I felt unworthy. But when I woke up to the sunrise behind the Cathedral Dome I felt God asking me to surrender and let go of my self-condemnation and accept His forgiving grace. In my morning prayers, I wept as I felt a born again experience of God’s love that is relentless and unshakable, reaching out to sinners like me who felt like we don’t belong to church. But on this mountain of Ragusa, I finally surrendered that God loves me unconditionally as I am and not as I should be, because nobody is as they should be. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!

Our highest recommendation. The view has no equal. The owner went out of her way and went above and beyond to make everything perfect. She was also an excellent tour guide and information source. The breakfast was amazing. Many small touches and efforts that made our stay memorable and one of our most enjoyable.

One of the best places we stayed in Italy.

Katie’s disposition to help and provide advice was commendable. The place is a jewel, the view from our room looking to the dome was fantastic: the decoration details beautiful! And the breakfast was extraordinary!

Katia, the owner of the property, was the most congenial host I have ever experienced at a B&B. She could not do enough for us to make sure that our stay was perfect. I would highly recommend this property to anyone who wishes to stay in the heart of Ragusa Ibla.

We absolutely LOVED this hotel, and the owner--Katia--is a best reason why. What a lovely and caring host. She made a fantastic breakfast every morning, and had lots of suggestions of things to see and places to go. The hotel is quite chic: comfortable bed, extra pillows, good hairdryer, free water and coffee. A GREAT location if you are walking...not easy to get to by car. But totally worth the effort! Would absolutely stay here again.

All was very good, and communication with host was excellent. We had a great time. Thank you.

4 bedroom hotel. We were alone so was perfect. Cannot ask for better location in Ragusa. Katia who manages the hotel was extremely kind and helpful.

Katia was tremendous! A huge asset for us. Driving in Ragusa Ilba is challenging, especially when the GPS gets you lost. One time it lead us to a street that ending up with stairs going up hill! After two attempts, we call Katia and she rescued us and helped find parking just down the street. I side swiped a wall in our adventure and she buffed out the marks for us (no comments from the car rental folks...thank God). Once you get there (that was the only "negative" we experienced), everything was PERFECT. Beautiful, spacious room, great shower/bathroom, excellent breakfast and outstanding location. Ragusa Ilba is beautiful and a must visit. Great views, churches and restaurants. Plus, Il Duomo Relais has Katia...what more could you want! We had a blast

What a wonderful surprise! The hotel is nestled away in beautiful Ibla and the staff was just great - incredibly friendly, and so helpful with sightseeing options/suggestions. The breakfast was ordered in advance and we were even provided a couple extra goodies we hadn't asked for. The village of Ibla is just stunningly beautiful. Visit!

First let me start with the owner(Hostess) Katia...she was so hospitable abd so very friendly! Her establishment was 5 stars! Our room was impeccably clean and tastefully decorated with beautiful complbuilding was absolutely beautiful! The reception area was beautiful and clean

We loved the Duomo Relais and especially Katia. She was so warm and welcoming. The breakfast was one of the best we have had in Sicily. She recommended restaurants that we totally enjoyed.

Spotless, welcoming, helpful. Lovely room, great shower, comfy bed & view. Recommend highly. Only tricky bit is reaching it (as our sat nav tried to take us up no entry streets).

Katia was a wonderful host. The location was stunning for the view and safety. Parking was easy. She was flexible with check in and the breakfast was well thought out with local fresh product. Her English was excellent and provided a lot of local information. The stay was very pleasant experience. Thanks Katia!

This is an incredible B&B at the top of hill overlooking Ragusa. The view is spectacular and you won't want to leave your terrace - - but you must in order to experience this incredible town. The staff was accommodating and they serve a wonderful breakfast.

The hotel is excellently located. The owners were great, the breakfast was wonderful.
