We stayed at the Domus Aurea for one night and it was lovely. We were greeted by a very friendly front desk manager who escorted us to a junior suite with a balcony overlooking a vinyard and the Tempei. The view was just spectacular. We ordered a bottle of amazing wine and spend a few hours on the balcony just... more

I would not recommend staying at this hotel (more like a B&B really), particularly in the early season when nice little things like garden fountains are shut down. The place had a creepy vibe. The restaurant is not in the same building so we were driven there by a crazy-driving bellboy in his own beat-up car. Rooms were musty, not... more

I would like to thank our travel agent in Italy, Viviana Buscemi with Filovacanze Italy, who booked us the delightful Domus Aurea at short notice. The Domus Area has lovely rooms and interiors in the fine style of the Grand Tour, but still cozy and welcoming. The other best features are the balconies with spectacular views of the illuminated temples... more

Hotel is OK especially the superior rooms with view (distant) of Valle di Tempei. No traffic noise on this N side, but south side faces main road. Our room had only a hand shel hower which is inconvenient. Breakfast is not too bad, but dinner was utter rubbish. I have never before been asked to sign the bill for dinner... more

We booked 2 nights at this hotel as part of our honeymoon trip to Sicily. It's almost impossible to find - their website map bears no relation to the actual location and when you call, they found it hard to explain and not surprising! Its just feet from the main Agrigento - Sciacca road, but down a narrow lane alongside... more

The hotel is one of the three we researched in Agrigento that have a view of the Temples and close to other sights. It is very difficult to find by car since the address listed is not correct and it is hard to see the property from the highway. We had to call the hotel to get additional directions. So,... more

Only 2 good points for this too expensive Hotel, the view and the garden. Rooms and bathroom only for "thin" people, breakfast mediocre, hotel very difficult to find and "amateur" management. Choose another hotel when visiting Agrigento; more

We just stayed here for two days and this place is a jewel. It is a bit out of the way, but it is so peaceful and beautiful, it more than makes up for it. The staff could not be more accommodating and good natured and the food is wonderful. If you are looking for a some peace and tranuquility... more

We had some minor problems finding the hotel, so make sure to double-check directions. The real trouble started when we entered reception. On hearing our name, they hemmed and hawed, before finally telling us "a sad story." Yes, they had our reservation, but had already given our room to someone else with the same last name! We replied that they... more
