The Best Hotels in Sicily, From a 17th-Century Former Monastery to an Island Villa
Caught in the crosshairs of civilizations for centuries, thanks to its vulnerable geography, Sicily enjoys an unusually complex cultural mosaic for such a small, ravishing island and some of the best hotels in the Med. Yet among its vast array of food, art, religion, and architecture lies a fiercely unified identity—one that separates it from mainland Italy and makes it endlessly alluring. Sicily’s best hotels reflect this curious blend of unity and variance—each whispering a different tale of conquest and confrontation, all honoring their extraordinary natural surroundings and offering sweet breakfast feasts of cannoli, granita, and brioche con tuppu.
From 18th-century palaces salvaged from Palermo’s crumbling splendor to porous, time-warp rooms inhaling the Aeolians’ salty Tyrrhenian air, here are the best hotels in Sicily.
