Firriato Hospitality - Baglio Sorìa

"Special place - charming and efficient service. The wines obviously are out of this world as befits this winery. The food was simply amazing- the pasta with truffle and shrimp deserves a special mention as well as the magnificent crudi plate! Really worth going there"

Borgo Pida

"This hotel has the WOW factor! Everything you could dream of, clean rooms, amazing showers, bbq area, bar, pool, jacuzzi, washing area, tennis courts and basketball nets! Simply amazing. I loved every minute"

Giardini Mon Plaisir

"Pulled into Trapani in a rented Fiat Panda (which roars like a lawnmower with ambition) and checked into the Giardino Mon Plaisir. First impression: very well priced, clean, and run with a certain understated nobility. That’s no coincidence—the owner is a direct descendant of the historic Pepoli family, whose museum sits just one block away. If you’re into history, you’re basically sleeping in the family’s backyard. We were greeted by Alessandro, who deserves a medal in cross-cultural hospitality. He explained everything with style—from why the main door must be closed at night (cats are sneaky) to how our room key card also doubles as the opener for the massive garage door. Pro tip: just trust whatever Alessandro tells you, you’ll be fine. The breakfast is excellent and very well attended. They’ll make you whatever you want—scrambled eggs, bacon, or anything else—and the coffee comes exactly how you like it, from espresso to cappuccino to a tall Americano. The yard is nicely appointed, perfect for relaxing after you’ve sweated out some cannoli calories. There’s no gym on-site, but Dino’s Gym nearby does the trick if you need to prove you can still bench more than your luggage. Our room was directly behind the front desk—functional, but with zero view unless you count the back of the reception wall. The mattress could use an upgrade to memory foam, because my back remembered every spring. Bathroom was solid: good water pressure, shower cabin a decent size, everything worked. All in all, it’s a charming little spot with character, history, and fair pricing. If you want a gym in-house, stay somewhere else—but if you’re happy with old-school Sicilian hospitality, hearty breakfasts, and the noble guidance of Alessandro, Giardino Mon Plaisir will do the job (Panda rental optional)."
