Overall Ratings & Reviews Hotel Eremo della Giubiliana

Spectacular former convent from 1500 with 10 year amazing restoration! Staff were best ever . Grounds contain Ancient Greek ruins . Chef was brilliant. Greatest value

A beautiful property in a stunning picturesque setting. Full of character & charm, great breakfast & dinner available. Bathroom could do with updating and rooms feel very dark. Biggest drawback was our room which we booked for a family of 4 and were given a room right in the centre of the courtyard by the restaurant and the children’s bedroom was adjacent to the noisy kitchen. Needless to say it was very disturbing and loud and the hotel were not able to help or move us, which was a real shame and put a downer on our stay.

Hotel Eremo is a former monastery. You are greeted immediately by name by the friendly staff. The property is serene, dining is available outside in a courtyard, at the pool, in your room. There is an amazing breakfast buffet. There is a spa or cooking classes by the chef which need to be reserved in advance. It is necessary to have a car to visit the beach or surrounding towns. We also drove to the oldest winery in Sicily for a tour, tasting, and lunch.

Awful property. They categorize themself as five star, In reality they are two star at best. It’s in an old monastery, and it smells like an old monastery. My room was dusty and smelled extremely musty and moldy. In my experience they used a bait and switch booking scheme. They had many descriptions and pictures of rooms with various categories. I booked a room above the basic room but was given the basic room, they simply renamed the room upon checking in.Even though it was the exact description and pictured as their website for basic room. The grounds are in disrepair. The pool is not maintained. It’s a deep green algae and mosquito infested pond. The pool area appears to be used as a toilet for the owners large dog. It’s run by Amateurs, in every level. It’s situated twenty minutes from any service or attraction. It was my choice to book there, however the lack of maintenance on the grounds made a comfortable stay at the property impossible. I found no outside seating, except at the abandoned pool area. Absolutely not five star.

This is a beautiful, elegant old property set in the serene countryside outside of Ragusa. Everything about the place is fine - the service, the food is great, the property itself is lovely. The staff are very good, very helpful and we enjoyed our staff very much.

Angelo the general manager is very passionate about the place and will give you an interesting tour and tell you about the history of the place. Great breakfast & dinner. The 7 grains bread which is served at dinner is the best bread I've ever had! The almond milk is also great for those that don't eat dairy (I would have preferred it without any sugar but that's just me because I don't like having lots of unhealthy sugar). We had a small issue with the stone wall room (cobwebs & ants) but the customer service was excellent and we changed rooms straight away (normal wall room) and the cost for the upgrade was waived. I recommend staying in one of the deluxe rooms instead of standard (small cells) or the premium ones with the stone walls (the stone has tiny holes through which sometimes worms & little bugs can get in, not good if you are squeamish). The deluxe rooms with normall wall felt much cleaner than the premium rooms with the stone wall. Overall good experience.

My husband and I just spent two nights at Hotel Eremo della Giubiliana. There are not enough good words to write about this beautiful hotel, and its AMAZING staff! We originally booked only one night, as we were not sure of going to another area for our 2nd night. We were welcomed by the entire staff when we drove in, and then Margherita and Antonella gave us a tour of the property. Their warmth, and outstanding customer service is beyond words. Margherita then brought us to our gorgeous room, and we immediately booked another night. We only wished we could stay longer. We ate at their lovely restaurant both nights, and the service by Leticia and Simone were outstandingly. We were told of the local production of their food, and truly every bite was delicious. Breakfast in the morning was also incredibly delicious, and the service by Alfio absolutely outstanding! He had me try the property’s fresh ricotta cheese w honey, and it was So delicious. There was a beautiful fire in the lobby, and we enjoyed drinks before and after dinner. We also enjoyed walking the beautiful property, and historic airstrip from WWII. The owner, Salvatore showed us his land, and the beautiful area where their pigs live. Angelo, the manager was very sincere in his intent to make sure our stay was wonderful. The customer service by the entire staff is absolutely outstanding and genuine. It is truly one of the most special hotels we have stayed, and we cannot wait to return! Thank you for a lovely stay.

A safe and remarkable property hidden away in the countryside - high levels of privacy, amazing facilities and staff were all polite and we're always happy to help with class A service!

We were greeted in the drive where a valet welcomed us, took care of our bags and the car. Upon entering reception, we were given a glass of Prosecco and a tour of the gorgeous house and grounds. Dinner and breakfast were superb. We could have stayed longer.

An absolutely lovely place that provides easy access to Ragusa, Modica , Scicli and Punta Seca.

Lovely old building, with a fantastic pool surrounded by a lawn with overhanging trees - great for relaxing during the day, and also for sitting out in the evening. Breakfast was great with lots of choice and local produce. We had dinner one night - served in the courtyard - not cheap but the food was very good. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. We booked a standard room. As mentioned by previous reviewers, these are small but this was not a problem for a 2 night stay as we did not spend much time in the room. For a longer stay, it would probably be worth going for a larger room. Unlike some previous reviewers, we had no problem finding the hotel using our phone map app. It is a 10-15 minute drive into Ragusa which was also quite straightforward.

Lovely hotel. Wonderful staff.

Fantastic property, great service. Look forward to come back

The property was once an old monastery, beautifully restored to 5 star. The pool area is great. The service here is a very high standard, our concierge Lorenzo went well beyond our expectations, difficult to find anyone better. Jessica in reception was just superb. The restaurant is excellent also, a very high standard! We loved our 3 nights stay, could have stayed another day had time permitted.

Great room overlooking the runway. Good amenities. Food in restaurant is overrated

Wonderful service room sound proofing not good though.

This is a beautiful hotel in a very unique setting. Aesthetically, this has been the most beautiful hotel we have stayed in on this trip. The one and only true issue is that it is difficult to find, even with gps. Trying to find it took precious time away from enjoying it to the fullest.

Unique, beautiful, the most attentive staff, perfect in every way.

Architecturally stunning. Most all breads, meats, cheeses, and even vines made, bred or grown on their 38 hectares of surrounding property. Service was everything you would expect from a 5 star accommodation. Room appropriate for surroundings but a little small.

We chose this hotel for the first few nights of our honeymoon. The location is beautiful and very peaceful. The room we stayed in was a classic, which was one a monk’s cell, and was basic but in keeping with the history of the building. We visited Ragusa Ibla, Modica and Scicli. Staff were very helpful and told us best places to park, things to see and where to eat on each occasion. We are in the restaurant which was expensive but a treat to eat the local black pig and locally grown onion.
