Il Castello Ristorante - Pizzeria - Albergo

Quaint hotel set in amazing location unspoiled by mass tourism. The restaurant next door serves the best pizza we ever had and the staff, especially Francesca made our stay wonderful. The breakfast is varied and generous and the room was comfortable.

breathtaking medieval style location, no masstourism. the food was phenomenal. the trip was absolutely worth it.

The food and service, was on point. The hamburger was very big and juicy. The size and taste didn't match the low price of the hamburger.

I organised a walking tour in May for a group of English people and many of us stayed at It Castello. The staff - particularly Francesca - could not have been more helpful in the run up to the trip - they even organised additional places for us to stay in town because they didn't have enough beds. All the guests were happy with their rooms which were spacious and well appointed, and the staff were charming throughout. The general feel of the place is lovely, and it's in the centre of town which means you can walk everywhere. We all ate in the pizzeria on the first night and had some of the best pizzas we'd ever tasted. If I organise another tour I will definitely go back to Il Castello.

Attention: This location marks the entrance to the restaurant. The hotel’s entrance is in the back of the building in via Pucci! We had a great stay at the hotel. The staff is super friendly and ready to help, they’re super knowledgeable of things to do in the area. The breakfast is delicious. Our room was very comfortable and spacious, but expect some noise from the restaurant if your room’s windows are above the outdoor seating area.

The food was tasty but unfortunately the restaurant was definitely over charging tourists for wine. Waitress told us that that a carafe of wine was not possible (although local people had this) we had to choose from the wine cellar! She could only tell us that the wine cost ' around E30 but could not give us any tasting notes! In the end they charged us E35! Very poor quality wine!!! I would not recommend which is a shame as food was satisfactory.

We stayed here for two nights at the beginning of a week's walking trip to the Madonie mountains. Room was great- comfortable and with character. breakfasts were excellent, Francesca was very attentive - very good service. Our first evening in the restaurant for dinner was not a good experience unfortunately. Because the rest of our stay was so good I won't go into too much detail, but to serve the main course (pizza) almost an hour apart to a table of two people is a new experience for me, and to try to defend it without saying sorry was indefensible. This wasn't the only problem that night and other several other customers were also not happy. I couldn't do a genuine review without mentioning this - every restaurant has a bad night occasionally but most would apologise. The second night however was like visiting a completely different restaurant - excellent service, excellent food and an excellent night. I've rated our stay as 4 out of 5. It would have been 5 out of 5 if not for that first evening's experience - this really is a great place to stay and eat when they are getting it right.

We stayed two nights in this hotel as part of a walking holiday. We had a very pleasant stay. The bedroom was up a couple of flights of stairs and was perfectly comfortable, though I might use the term 'rustic'. The bed was firm and the shower more than adequate. The restaurant was good and, although there was a note stating it was not open on a Wednesday we found that the restaurant was indeed open. Perhaps this was just for guests of the hotel. The pizza oven was not fired up during our visit but the food was good and plentiful and we could visit the wine cellar to choose our wine.
