Antico borgo dei templi

The staff were kind and helpful, and when we mentioned a couple of minor issues, they responded very attentively. The breakfast area and rooms both have stunning views. We stayed for just one night with our 2-year-old daughter, travelling from the Agrigento coast up into the hills of San Biagio Platani. The small hotel is at the edge of town, made from reconstructed village houses. They’ve done a nice job keeping old features like stone walls and wooden ceilings while making everything feel modern and comfortable. There’s a seasonal pool too. I’d recommend it to friends. If you’re not used to the countryside, don’t let the small roads leading to town put you off.

We send our best wishes from Estonia! Antico Borgo dei Templi is a lovely, unique place in a mountain village near Agrigento. Our King room had a spa bath, with beautiful views and a relaxing soak in the hot tub. Breakfast was delicious, and the interiors are beautiful too.

The only drawback is that it’s a little far from the main attractions, though it’s perfect if you’re not in a hurry. This is a very nice b&b in the hills near Agrigento, with large, attractive rooms. The staff are really helpful, and their restaurant is very close by, which is convenient.

A sophisticated spot in an authentic Sicilian setting, with a lovely view, good breakfast, a bar, and a swimming pool.
