we stay at the magnificent barbieri every time we drive to and from sicily as it is a perfect stop over, situated on a tall hill, surrounded by fruit orchards, with a view of the adriatic sea to the east and vast mountains to the west. the family who own the hotel are as welcoming as the staff and our...

On this holiday we were in a group and the Barbieri was our base for four days.As we toured we didn't have the best opportunity to enjoy all that was on offer.It didn't take long for my wife and i to wish we had much longer to do just that.Our room was at the front of the hotel with views... More

We booked Hotel Barbieri partly because of Its location but also because of the positive reviews it has received. On looking at these again I find it hard to believe that we stayed in the same establishment since it failed in so many areas. On arrival at reception we were given no information about when and where breakfast would be... More

As stated previously, this place is a 'gem' high up in the hills, only a short walk from the small town. It is obvious the place is run by the Family. Our host personally took us for an exploration of the community sights, even the Mayor's Office. As part of a large group our room was not one of those... More

Family-owned and operated, Hotel Barbieri welcomes you with smiles, exemplary service, delicious meals, and attention to every detail. The rooms are quiet, with balconies overlooking the mountains. Breakfast is included, and is extensive in its offerings (ask for eggs with flash-fried peppers!). The pool area is tranquil, the pool crystal clear. We did not use the spa, but have no... More

I just returned from a 2 week trip to Italy (my first). Part of the trip we stayed in Altamonte at the house of a friend. We did not stay at the hotel but ate there as well as used the pool. For me the stand out was the food. We had a huge lunch of various antipasti dishes. The... More

We have a house in Sicily and drive the length of Italy regularly. We have been staying at the Barbieri many times. After Rome the country becomes fairly wild and empty and there aren't that many opportunities for a comfortable stay in Southern Italy, however, the Hotel Barbieri is a godsend! Not only is the hotel in a beautiful town,... More

From the moment we arrived and Don Vincenzo greeted us at the entrance, our stay could not have been more perfect. This is a family run hotel, where all the staff go out of their way to help guests. Our room was charming, and although it was at the back if the hotel, the balcony had wonderful views towards the... More

After spending more than 30 days traveling the length and breadth of Italy we have to say that the Hotel Barbieri was the best!!! Exceptional service and hospitality, helpful and attentive staff, and outstanding food -- all combined -- the best in Italy!!! Enzo and his family made us welcome and by the end of our week long stay we... More
