We arrived via the not fit to drive at night broken road and upon arriving decided NOT to stay even though we had paid. The hotel pics must be very old as it looks like something from a horror film. Flaky paint, badly kept gardens and flies in our room. We handed back the key and left. The road to the property is horrendous. Don't even think about going anywhere for dinner and back....it's not safe....awful

The place is very very difficult to find especially in a dark rainy night. They said a lot of people have trouble finding it. I was looking forward to a jaquzzi but everything was closed. We payed extra for dinner & the pasta was bad. The building and area is beautifull should have gone there in the summer.

Second week of holiday
Having traveled in Sicily extensively the first week we needed a quite hotel for the second. What a gem Monaco di Mezzo was, Ok you have to take care when driving on the road to Monaco di Mezzo (as you do in all of Sicily) and the driveway to the hotel can be exciting but it is well worth it. Location, pool, activities, food, staff are all excellent. We didnt want to leave.

Just Fabulous
Even though this is very difficult to get to - a really frightening road with high drop offs - it is still a 5. This is the place to go to in the middle of your trip and just rest for a couple of days before continuing on your journey. It is truly an agriturismo hotel with all foor coming right from the farm. I highly recommend this - it was the best meal of our three week vacation and also one of the best rooms.

A Most Happy Surprise
Monaco di Mezzo falls under the category "agriturismo." It is worth a side trip: our most memorable meal in two weeks of Sicilian travel was served here. All info on their website is accurate. The food served could not be purer, fresher, nor more impeccably prepared. Bring your appetite, because at dinner the table d'hote menu just keeps rolling out. You needn't ask for another litre of wine, it will be replaced before you even finish the first. We were entirely blissed out; I would have liked to stay longer. It is a lovely and congenial place for both families and couples, and would be relaxing for singles as well. Very low key, but a haute kind of rural experience.

How on earth did this hotel get four stars?
Whilst we expected simplicity from an agriturismo resort we didn't expect spartan! As this was listed as a hotel (not self catering) and had 4 stars we anticipated a reasonable level of comfort and service. The room had no windows! the only way to get natural daylight was to leave the door open - not ideal if you happen to like privacy, other than that lighting was by rather low wattage bulbs. There were no toilettries in the bathroom other than a bottle of liquid soap on the basin, we had to go out and buy shampoo, shower gel etc. The shower was not a seperate cubical but at one end of the room which you had to drag an ill fitting screen across when taking a shower. This in no way prevented all the water leaking out and the whole bathroom would become flooded whenever one of us took a shower involving much mopping up with towels afterwards. Perhaps most surprising of all the rooms were not made up once during our stay! We couldn't believe it when we returned from a day out on the first day to find the bed unmade, bins not emptied, bathroom uncleaned (and full of wet towels!) There was no chambermaid service at all during our stay. This should at best be a 2 star resort and priced accordingly

La struttura sarebbe bella se ben tenuta. La location sembra vicina all'autostrada, in realtà dista 6/8 km da percorrere in strade con buche dossi e cunette, oltre che curve. Le foto non sono realistiche. Niente cavalli e , se vogliamo utilizzare la spa, dobbiamo comunicarlo con almeno un giorno di anticipo. La nota dolente è la strada, molto brutta. Google map ti indirizza verso un tratturo ad un certo punto, con il rischio di rimanere bloccato (poi ci vuole il trattore per uscirne). Il proprietario dovrebbe mettere dei cartelli indicativi più grandi e che ben mostrassero la strada da percorrere, oltre che segnalare il fatto che Google indirizza verso un tratturo. La notte siamo abbandonati a noi stessi. Nessun servizio di reception per un bisogno. Solo un cellulare (dei vicini). Poche luci all'esterno. Uniche note positive che sottolineo: il cuoco Rosario e l'addetto alle colazioni Giuseppe. Brave persone, disponibili e amanti del proprio lavoro.

Splendida piscina
La struttura si trova molto isolata, immersa nella quiete delle campagne circostanti, lontano dai rumori di strade trafficate, lontano dalle luci dei paesi vicini (ho rivisto quanto fosse bello il cielo stellato); nota negativa, per raggiungerlo occorre percorrere in auto per 15/20 minuti una strada stretta, parecchio dissestata e a tratti anche sterrata. La nostra camera, ampia e comoda richiederebbe una rinfrescata alle pareti e un po' di manutenzione del bagno. La parte migliore, a mio parere, è la piscina, grande, mantenuta bene e molto pulita, dalla quale si gode una meravigliosa vista delle campagne circostanti. Abbiamo cenato lì, avendo tante aspettative, ma alla fine siamo rimasti delusi. Tutto molto gustoso, la pecca era la quantità e la varietà, pochi antipasti, in solo primo portato in un piatto che doveva essere per due persone, ma che era una singola porzione, lo stesso per il secondo con 2 assaggi di carne: visto il prezzo mi sarei aspettato un po' di più. Di solito quando mangio negli agriturismi ne esco sempre più che sazio, questa volta non è stato così. Il mio consiglio è di rinforzare le pietanze e magari aggiungere qualcosa di più caratteristico (suino nero, selvaggina...).

Una bella esperienza
Abbiamo prenotato consapevoli che pagando abbastanza poco non potevamo pretendere chissà cosa.... e invece siamo stati sorpresi dalla struttura curata, organizzata, accogliente e con diversi servizi. Il personale abbastanza accogliente Rita ti mette subito a disposizione e il proprietario simpatico e disponibile...il nostro soggiorno è stato durante il capodanno e abbiamo mangiato davvero bene, cucina semplice ma buona... abbiamo apprezzato tanto il fatto che noi abbiamo portato il nostro cane e devo dire che rispetto ad altri alberghi o strutture che ti fanno capire che il cane non è molto gradito o addirittura non è accettato, loro l’hanno trattato come un ospite vero e proprio. Grazie sperando che questo 2018 porti altre sorprese positive come la vostra.

Ottimo hotel, non semplice da raggiungere
Ottima location, personale cortese, cibo genuino, abbondante ed ottimo. Unica nota stonata: la strada per raggiungerlo, poca segnaletica, strada sterrata con buche. Le indicazioni sulla scheda sono errate: non bisogna impostare sul navigatore Petralia Sottana, vi porterebbe fuori strada, ma prendere l'uscita Resuttana sull'A19 PA-CT e seguire le indicazioni per il paese di CiolIno.
