“Our stay at the beautiful Palazzo Aprile was exceptionally pleasant!”
We liked every single thing, starting from the warm welcome from our wonderful host Davide, then the excitement of exploring the beauty of Caltagirone to the return to a sunny, comfortable, nicely furnished room with ambiance to wish for. All in all, it was a wonderful experience that we will never forget and we really can’t wait to come back.

“10+ for Palazzo Aprile”
Clean room, optimal position in town, free parking near the property. Caltagirone is a real gem, we were given advice about the town and interesting parts to be seen.

“The part where the property is located in the Palazzo is very welcoming, clean and comfortable.”
A historic building in the heart of the city, very close to the main attractions.

“I loved it here!! Everything about my stay felt like I was home!!”
This property is magnificent. It’s steeped in architectural antiquity in its original state built in the 1500 and restored in 1690. It’s central, and beautifully kept. The room was simple but in keeping with its historical setting. Davide was warm welcoming and truly amazing as a host. It’s was like I was welcomed home! There is a great restaurant downstairs. For me the whole stay in Caltagirone was amazing. When I return, I will only stay at Palazzo Aprile.

“A memorable stay in the perfect location with the most amazing host!”
This hotel is something special and is highly recommended to anyone visiting this beautiful area in Sicily. The hotel is located in a historical building and has a very unique and romantic atmosphere. The rooms were spotless and the service was some of the best we have ever experienced. Our host, David, is the most gracious, friendly and helpful person you can imagine. We arrived on 2 motorcycles but due to unforeseen circumstances had to continue our journey with a rental car. David offered to store our 2 motorcycles for 3 days to help us sort our problems. This really solved a huge problem for us and we are eternally grateful to David for going the extra mile for us. We can't recommend this hotel and its host highly enough.

“What fun to stay in a real palazzo”
Central location. It is just off the square on a side street, so not as shown on photos. All the rooms are on the second floor with an amazing stone staircase up to them with shallow steps so very easy even with bags. It is beautifully decorated in a traditional style. The manager is lovely and very helpful.

“lovely host , great time”
location was very good in the old centre , the room was a good size, the only thing was it is very dark even with sunshine outside one needed to put lights on as the room was facing an interior space.
