Antico Convento Dei Cappuccini

Beautiful place, friendly staff, comfortable bed and pillow. Since the building is stony, the accoustics are very loud, so don't go here if you want to spent time in your room and want some silence; you hear all the staff (rattling cleaning vehicle ), guests arriving/leaving untill night, and noises from the cooking classes. No tea/coffee in the room.

The position of the convent is outstanding surrounded by gardens, views over the hills and close to places of interest in Ragusa. The rooms (cells) are clean and comfortable. They run cooking classes by an excellent chef so we expected an above average breakfast. Unfortunately this was not the case. Don’t despair there are lovely cafes not far from the hotel.

My wife and I spent one night in Ragusa, and stayed in this convent in Ragusa Ibla, the lower town. Pretty place, clean room, and the convent is reachable through a large public park near the center of the old town, steps away from restaurants and shops.

The hotel grounds are lovely as is the building itself. However, my room was very small with sparse furnishings. The bed was a wooden box frame with an uncomfortable mattress on top that had a single hard pillow. The on-premises restaurant is open for breakfast. In addition, there is no bar available. It’s a short walk to the town for meals and drinks. The internet works in the lobby but not in the rooms. The hotel has a story because it was a convent at one time. I would never recommend this hotel to anyone.

Hotel Antico Convento dei Cappuccini is elegantly renovated former convent with small simple but comfortable rooms, making maximum use of the great architecture of the original building. Delicious and generous breakfast and a staff that works hard to be accomodating. Perfect location in beautiful town garden and short walk to sites and restaurants. Highly recommended.

Posticcino scoperto per caso visitando i giardini Iblei. Il ristorante è immerso in un atmosfera di pace come si addice ad un convento anche se ormai ex convento. Il personale merita una menzione particolare per gentilezze e competenza. Cibo ottimo e servizio impeccabile e prezzo nella media. Se siete in visita a Ragusa Ibla merita arrivare ai giardini all’ora di pranzo.
