Excellent location with parking included. Room very clean, with AC, with spacious private bathroom. The breakfast room is across the building where the rooms are, but in the same complex of the Monastery. No more than 5 min walk to the Via Atenea where all the shops and restaurants are. Excellent customer service. Breakfast is continental with Almondsweets that are by the nuns.
A great place to stay!
Great stay. Comfortable rooms. Great breakfast. Perfect location.
super location, very interesting and do not miss their unique church. sister in charge is very helpful. if you are coming by car do not look the destination by address: just find the Monastero on the map and your destination on the west side: Cortillio Monastero Santo Spirito.
OK - not great - not terrible
Nearly impossible to find (if you are using TomTom or Google Maps) and very basic rooms. A bit spartan, but it is a convent. The sisters were very pleasant, but not overly welcoming. The breakfast provided was more than adequate. The chapel is amazing - make sure to visit. Best not to drive there - park in town and either hike in or find a taxi willing to take you in.
This was a conveient stop on our way to Palermo. Not much to do but we had little time to search things out.
staying in the monastery Santo Spirito
staying in the Monastery was really a wonderful experience. The single room was clean but the single bed was very small. The breakfast was wonderful if you like sweet breakfast. the tiny cakes were made from an ancient recipe by the nuns, usually for festivals. I can recommend staying here for the atmosphere alone.
Quiet getaway
The place is located in a quiet little square and is run by the nuns of the convent. The room is comfortable and spacious and the service was really personal. One of the nuns gave me a personal tour of the church. The breakfast was generous and amazing; tons of homemade cookies and pastries.
Solo traveller
Next to Monastery of Santo Spirit and close to the bus station, in the centre of town. Very helpful staff, delicious almond cookies alone worth the trip.
Don't follow Google maps in a car to this hotel
Staff was nice, but only spoke Italian. Very minimalist services, but clean and safe. Breakfast was great if you want only lovely Italian pastries and yoghurt. A bit overpriced.
Monastery accommodation, very convenient location
I stayed at this BB couple of weeks ago for 10 days. It was very conveniently located in the historical centre, and also quite close (5-10 minutes walk) to the bus and train terminals. The nuns prepare delicious sweets based on local recipes, which they serve at breakfast. The big thing about the breakfast is that the guests have to share a large table, instead of sitting at small, separated tables, like usually is the case with other hotels. This leads to wonderful conversations among the travellers, and I personally have enjoyed many such great moments during my stay. Also very close to this location are major sites from the historic centre, mainly churches. By taking the bus from the bus terminal, one is within few minutes to many of the attractions outside Agrigento: Valley of the Temples (very close, it can even be reached by walking, but it requires a bit of it), then San Leone with its wonderful beaches, Casa di Luigi Pirandello, where the great writer was born, etc. The frequency is very reasonable, within 30 minutes - 1 hour of each other, and some lines even run on Sundays! This is quite rare here in Sicily. The sea is a light turquoise, a beautiful colour almost as far as the eyes can see, it just gets a little bit darker towards the horizon. This is another thing unique to what I've seen in Sicily so far. I would enjoy anytime staying at this BB again, it was very safe and btw: it has its own monastery complex, very old, to visit. The complex is magnificent!
Staying in a Convent
Very late arrivals are not on the menu here. It is a B&B in part of a convent and is accessed by small covered windows and speaker phones. We stayed for 3 nights during which our room was not serviced. Breakfast was limited with no choice. However against the Convent is situated in the centre of town and walking or bus access to everywhere in the area is simple. We went to the Valley of the Temples on the local bus. This is a must-see of Sicily. The restaurants within walking distance are all excellent and friendly.
medical consultant
The place was very difficult to find and GPS took us to a totally impossible route, we had to send my husband walk to the hotel and walk backward from the hotel to the car which stuck in a small alley and figured out the road to get there. We booked two nights there, we only had one set of towel and no clean changing sheet, we made the bed our-self to have a neat bed. the bathroom smell bad, the floor rug is draggy. The only thing I learn is to live a simple life you can come here to appreciate what we have.
Hidden Gem
The monastery is perfectly located, if a bit difficult to find. You must obtain a permit to transit the limited access pedestrian road and the street is actually up an unmarked alleyway. That said, it is an ideal place to stay while visiting the Agrigento area. Everything you’ll want to see is a short stroll from the main piazza and center of town. Even if you stay at another hotel, you must visit the monastery to sample the nuns' Sicilian dolce or sweets; they are like no others in all of Italy. There are several different types - we purchased two of everything! Clean, quiet, and ideally located, we will stay there again during our next visit.
Very hard to find, need small car!
stay was great, the nuns were very helpful and gave us many bedding options for the 5 of us. breakfast was simple but good with homemade pastries and great coffee. we had a GPS in the car, but it was too hard to find, so we called and a nun came to our rescue. little did we know the tiny winding street we were going to have to get a somewhat large car throughI do not recommend trying to drive to this place if you have anything but a compact car.
Good value for money but breakfast disappoints
Good value for money. Easy to find, has a car park, the nuns are nice and friendly. Perfect for families. Only disappointment was the breakfast. We got one almond pastry, some 'fette bis cottage' and jam.
Charming experience
We had a comfort room which delivers as expected from the pictures on the net i.e. clean but basic. There was no view over the sea but into the courtyard of the monastery. The charm of the place is in the interactions, the communal breakfast where we had lovely conversations with the Sister, French, Spanish and American tourists. The 5 star ratings are not about 5 star accommodation but about the charming experience. We enjoyed our 3 night stay here. Hot water, plenty of liquid soap, good air con, courtesy bottle of water on arrival. Close to town but not disturbed by the noise from the trendy late night pub. Agrigento is an underestimated place to stay. You must experience the chatter of the birds and the old guys in the square at 5 pm. P.S. there is a lift - handy for suitcases.
Great place to stay in Agrigento
Great location, great accommodations. The sisters were gracious. I would definitely recommend this for a stay in Agrigento.
L accès est très difficile car les GPS sont perdus Nous sommes motards une habitante nous a dirigés pour y accéder à pied par des escaliers Une sœur charmante et polyglotte m a indiqué l accès en fait il faut prendre un sens interdit sauf aux résidents Merci ma sœur !! Petit déjeuner excellent calme et en fait à 3 minute de la via Athèna La rue commerçante
Les cloches a 7h le samedi matin c’est ordinaire
Original et au coeur du centre historique
C'était une expérience très originale; le monastère est très placé pour visiter le centre historique et nous avons été très bien accueilli par soeur Gabrielle qui parle bien le français.
Отличный Отель
Хороший номер, мебель не новая, но очень все чисто и опрятно. Очень общительные и дружелюбные монахини. Мы были на машине, так они помогли с парковкой. Утром очень рано уезжали, и хотя завтрак должен был быть в определенное время, все равно нас накормили. Отель удобно расположен, от него быстро добрались до Долины Храмов. Рекомендую место проживания!
excelente
es un lugar extraordinario muy alegre y con mucha historia. hay que tener cuidado con la circulacion en vehiculo en la zona limitada y hacer que el hotel avise del ingreso a la misma para evitar multas. el monastero es excelente en todo sentido y la atencion muy esmerada y simpatica. el desayuno es excelente con muchisimas cosas artesanales y riquisimas
Très bon séjour au calme en plein cœur d Agrigente
Vraiment un très bon rapport qualité prix. Nous avons été accueillis par les sœurs et avons eu une visite personnalisée du monastère et de l églises qui est la plus belle de la ville. Spontanément elles nous ont offert un rafraîchissement dans leur cuisine et nous ont indiqué un très bon restaurant pour le soir. La chambre est simple, tres propre et calme avec la climatisation. Le petit déjeuner était très copieux avec différentes confitures pains et petits gâteaux maison. Un endroit très dépaysant. Je recommande vivement ce b and b et ne comprend pas les commentaires négatifs que j ai pu lire.
Ystävälliset ja avuliaat nunnat
Un accueil remarquable dans un vrai monastère
un accueil extraordinaire par les nones du monastère, dont la joie n'a d'égale que la gentillesse. Un emplacement idéal en plein centre de la ville. Des chambres propres et fonctionnelles mais un peu austères... L'austérité du lieu fait également partie de la marque de fabrique et du charme.
Buon connubio qualità prezzo
Abbiamo soggiornato una notte con tre coppie di amici, la posizione è ottima e centrale contornata da tanti ristoranti, si trova parcheggio, camere essenziali ma pulite. Ottima colazione con i dolcetti speciali delle suore.
Grazie di tutto
Piacevole incontro con suor Faustina, colazione ottima i dolci della tradizione delle suore sono sublimi, molto disponibili per farci visitare il monastero con i suoi bellissimi stucchi siciliani.
B & B à éviter
D'un accès difficile en voiture, le parking n'est pas garanti car il dépend de l'encombrement de la cour, wifi très faible et intermittent, les gâteaux aux amandes du couvent sont délicieux mais trop sucrés et inadaptés à un petit déjeuner qui reste succinct (pas de pain, pas de jus), aucun accueil, aucun service (les produits de la salle de bain ne sont pas renouvelés, les lits ne sont pas faits après le premier jour), impossible d'obtenir une deuxième lampe de chevet dans une chambre double, chambres et douches exiguës et mal meublées, un très mauvais rapport qualité prix.
Due gg ad agrigento
Due giorni ad Agrigento ,da vedere per la Valle dei templi principalmente Il b&b e situato nella zona centrale di Agrigento a due passi da via Atenea Personale cortese e colazione buona con dolci fatti in casa dalle suore del convento Difficoltà di parcheggio , la struttura è accessibile con auto solo in fasce orarie predeterminate. La mattina si viene svegliati alle 6 dalle campane del monastero che suonano ripetutamente Wifi a pagamento contrariamente a quanto indicato Giuseppe
Heureux sejour, soeur Maria Gabrielle serviable
Milieu silencieux propice au repos. WIFI intermittent, malheusement
suggestiva sistemazione nell'ambito del monastero
E' stata una buona esperienza per la gentilezza ed accoglienza del personale. La posizione non è semplice da raggiungere con l'auto. Bene la possibilità di parcheggio all'interno della struttura.
Stay in Agrigento.
We enjoyed our stay very much. This sisters were very nice to my wife and I. The room was immaculately clean. We enjoyed joining them for Sunday Mass. You need to know what you are getting into. It is not a resort hotel.
Personale cortese, ma punteggio troppo alto...
Un punteggio troppo alto può diventare controproducente quando la struttura non risponde alle aspettative del cliente. La scelta di questo B&B è stata determinata proprio dagli ottimi voti assegnati dagli utenti che vi avevano alloggiato in precedenza. Una volta giunti sul posto, però, si rimane un po' delusi. Che le camere fossero essenziali era noto, e comprensibile trattandosi di un monastero, ma in quanto a pulizia non ci siamo: polvere depositata sulla cassetta dello scarico (con capello lungo annesso), nel bagno vecchio mobiletto in plastica ingiallito sul quale non hai voglia di poggiare nulla, telecomando ricoperto di polvere e, nello spazio comune, la tovaglia di plastica abbastanza sporca e appiccicosa. Consiglierei inoltre di montare, all'interno della doccia, un ripiano su cui poggiare i saponi, e di dotare le camere di asciugacapelli. Il letto era abbastanza precario. Da migliorare anche il cappuccino, che in realtà è un caffellatte. Di positivo c'è che il personale è, come già segnalato da altri utenti, cortese e disponibile. Alle nostre richieste si è sempre risposto in maniera pronta e puntuale. Nel complesso, il giudizio sulla struttura è positivo, visto anche il prezzo contenuto e la posizione centrale, ma non certo da 4 su 5 (punteggio rilvato prima della prenotazione). Ultima osservazione: la città è bellissima, ma il trasporto pubblico non è organizzato benissimo. Gli autisti sono disponibili, chiedete a loro conferma sulle corse, anche più di una volta..
grazioso Hotel
grazioso Hotel a due passi dai principali monumenti del centro storico di agrigento . si trova facilmente posteggio. unico neo non è facilmente raggiungibile utilizzando il navigatore. meglio inserire nel l'indirizzo via atenea ... molto bello, caratteristico .... Molto bella la vicina chiesa barocca
Sympathique mais un peu trop spartiate
Situé dans un monastère au coeur de la vieille ville d'Agrigento, ce b&b est parfaitement situé. Parking gratuit dans la cour, ce qui est à saluer (même si l'accès par des ruelles étroites donne des sueurs froides). Rien à redire sur le petit déjeuner, très bon, servi au réfectoire par une sœur parlant le français. Par contre, la chambre était vraiment trop petite pour trois (parents + bébé). A savoir aussi pour les parents: pas de lit à barreaux pour bébé.
accueil chaleureux
bonne situation, accueil prévenant, chambre très bien équipée. les dolci du petit dej sont succulents...
Très bonne impression. Bon accueil. Monastère très tranquille bien que très proche du centre ville. Possibilité de se garer dans la cour (un vrai luxe !). Très belle église (peut être visitée sur demande). Créations pâtissières des religieuses au petit déjeuner.
Accès très difficile (très petite rue)
Accueil peu chaleureux, pas d'eau chaude dans une chambre (on n'est pas prévenu), petite déjeuner très spartiate, exige le paiement en liquide, murs très fins donc bruit
Sia pro che contro
ho pernottato con alcuni amici al monastero nel corso di una visita alla provincia di Agrigento. La posizione è ottimale, sebbene si può avere qualche difficoltà a raggiungere il monastero, più che per le strade strette per le macchine parcheggiate lungo la strada già stretta. La struttura è molto pulita è posizionata perfettamente per visitare Agrigento. Purtroppo prima di soggiornare bisogna tener conto che chi gestisce la struttura non è un professionista; le suore fanno quanto è loro possibile, ma hanno dei forti limiti: Al nostro arrivo ci è stato detto che la prenotazione era stata rifiutata e che non vi erano stanze, sebbene non ci fosse arrivata alcuna mail o chiamata nei giorni precedenti . Dopo un'ora e mezza sono uscite fuori le stanze (non ho ancora capito chi avesse commesso l'errore). In due delle stanze prenotate non vi era acqua calda per un guasto e abbiamo dovuto fare una doccia fredda. Il guasto può ovviamente capitare ma avremmo gradito non scoprire il guasto all'atto della doccia. Inoltre quando siamo tornati dopo l'una di notte da un giro per Agrigento non vi era proprio acqua corrente, e onestamente anche qui avremmo gradito essere informati in precedenza. Consiglio vivamente di visitare la chiesa e il monastero annesso alla struttura. La chiesa in particolare è una tra le più belle del barocco siciliano visitabili in Sicilia.
En plein coeur d'Agrigente, allez y les yeux fermé
Charmant B&B en plein coeur d'Agrigente. Accueil avec le sourire et une bouteille d'eau. Bon petit déjeuner avec dolci maison. Les soeurs sont super. Petite chambre très correcte et calme. Possibilité de garer la voiture dans la cour du Monastère ce qui est très appreciable et d'utiliser un cuisine. Attention cependant à l'accès difficile en voiture (rues étroites et escarpées)
Très bon accueil, hébergement situé dans le centre historique d'Agrigente, à proximité des restaurants. Par contre, accès très difficile en voiture (rues étroites et nombreux sens uniques).
Einfache Unterkunfz
Wir (3 ältere Personen zwischen 55 und 66 Jahren) waren mit Leihauto auf Sizilientour und hatten eine Übernachtung in Monastero Santo Spirito. Die Unterkunft ist mit PKW sehr schwer zu finden: schlechte Ausschilderung und extrem schmale Gassen führen mitten in der Altstadt zum Kloster hinauf. Die Lage im Stadtzentrum begünstigt die Besichtigung von Agrigent.
Monjas muy amables y simpáticas
Aunque difícil de llegar a él, hay un pequeño aparcamiento. Junto a una iglesia maravillosa.
Bone relation qualite prix. Simple mais bien soigne.Soeurs tres gentiles
Grazie per l'accoglienza
Un'accoglienza a braccia aperte con lo sguardo verso il futuro senza dimenticare le tradizioni... Grazie
Right place to stay in Agrigento
Perfect situated good service and all the comforts
Difícil acceso
Acceso muy difícil en coche. El que te preguntarán el día anterior que querías desayunar y al día siguiente lo tenías individualizado
Pyörätuolimatkailua
Hotelli oli nunnaluostarin yhteydessä, jonne löytäminen oli vaikeaa kapeiden, sokkeloisten katujen takia. Erittäin ystävällinen nunna tuli omalla autolla hakemaan minut ja pyörätuolini, jätimme automme parkkiin ja muut kävelivät perille.
A ne pas rater, un séjour au coeur d'Agrigente
Il faut séjourner quelques jours à Agrigente, base de visites alentours et d'escapades aux plages, tout en profitant de cette cité authentique. Pour s'imprégner de cette petite ville, le mieux est de séjourner chez nos amies les soeurs du Monastère où vous serez accueillis par la bonne humeur de soeur Faustina. Le petit déjeuner est délicieux grace aux patisseries maison....Séjour au calme tout en étant au centre d'Agrigente.
