The location of this room is fantastic. You walk out the front door and straight to the left is the beautiful backing of the cathedral. You are practically in the cathedral! Cafes and bars just outside the apartment. Great great value. And the hosts I met are very nice.
The Agriturismo is an ancient farmhouse in perfect Sicilian style, where each apartment overlooks the internal courtyard.

The hosts are very friendly and welcoming. Location is good to visit Monreale old town on foot without worrying about parking and driving through narrow hilly roads. It took around 15 min to go to the centre of Monreale, it is a bit of climbing but not too hard. Our car was parked inside the gate of the B&B, very safe. Breakfast was very good: there were a lot of choices and it was delicious.
Set 10 minutes' walk from the historical centre of Monreale, B&B Al Giardino offers rustic or elegant rooms set in a traditional Sicilian countryside villa.

It is a charming and comfortable place with a really beautiful large garden. Perfect for visiting Monreale and even Palermo. It is better coming with car. The owners give good suggestions and even offered lifting to Monreale for visiting the town and the cathedral, or to the local terminal of the public transport to Palermo.

Monreale is a city built on the side of the mountain, so be prepared to walk up hills and stairs! The big attraction there is the Duomo in the main square which is just beautiful in the inside as the artwork is done in gold! You will have to pay an entrance fee, but it is worth it. The streets can be a bit of challenge to navigate as there are street vendors, cars, vespas, bicycles and pedestrians all trying maneuver through the narrow streets. Monreale gives you a beautiful view of Palermo and the ocean.

We spent only an afternoon here, but so glad that we included it on our trip. The cathedral was the most beautiful we had seen on our trip to Italy - we also visited ones in Palermo, Cefalu, and Catania. There were several interesting restaurants on side streets near the town center and we found a lovely ceramic/mosaic shop just off the central square. Views were amazing and it was an easy car ride to the airport for our departure the next day.

Although you can get in the cathedral free to see the mosaics, I would suggest you get the inclusive tickets (€12) to see the Cloister, the Cathedral, the Sanctuary and get up to the roof for a fantastic view of the Cloister and the town.

For us the cathedral was the centrepiece, why we were there, and the 12th century mosaics were stunning. We also enjoyed seeing the cathedral packed with young, local families, after hundreds of years still a centre for the local community

The Duomo both inside and outside is spectacular.
The Duomo both inside and outside is spectacular. The small town itself is very picturesque as well, with some great little restaurants (e.g. Pepers and pizzeria Antica de Guillermo opposite the main entrance to the Duomo) and beautiful views of Palermo in the distance. It's a good place to stay as you avoid the pain of driving in the busy centre of Palermo. You can leave the car in Monreale and take a 20-minute bus ride into the centre for €1,40 one way. You get the bus tickets from any tobacconist.

The cathedral is breath-taking and worth a trip unto itself, but Monreale is also an ideal staging point for trips into nearby Palermo. We had great food and sight-seeing within Monreale itself and took advantage of a good bus system to spend a day in Palermo. It was easy to do and we enjoyed everything we did here.
Situated just steps from Monreale Cathedral, very clean and extremely comfortable bed. Paola gave us very clear information how to go to Palermo by bus, ( which we preferred instead of driving in a very busy city). She also gave us very good advice to park our car at Parcheggio Comunale, which is very close to the property. We really enjoyed our stay and if we come back in the future we will not hesitate to stay again here.
The hosts were very nice and provided a nice breakfast each day of home baked dolces and made nice coffees. Very nicely renovated suites with panoramic views of Palermo and easy access to Monreale. A good choice if you have a car and want to do day trips from here. Rooms were comfortable and spacious. Way to go Rocce di Monreale !!
amazing view of the city. great responsive hosts. everything is very well organized, when you check in you get full information about all the good restaurants, parking lots, shops.
the hotel itself is very cozy, everything is done with love, the breakfasts are amazing with a view of the mountains. rooms are clean and air conditioned
The owners were a wonderful couple who provided dining and sightseeing suggestions and guidance everyday. Ample parking was a plus. Walking distance to Monreale Duomo, cafes and restaurants. Ample delicious breakfast. Wonderfully decorated house and rooms with beautiful garden and terraces. Stay here if Monreale is your destination.
The staff went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and happy! They provided everything we needed, even a space to work(!), and all with a big smile! The atmosphere is very welcoming and cozy. the pool and the view from the hotel are incredible! If i go again to Sicily- i wouldn’t stay anywhere else!
Great location just 3 min from the Monreale centar, cathedral, cafes and restaurants. Nice concept: rooms in Opera BB house in via Giuseppe Verdi are named by titles of Giouseppe Verdi operas: Otello, Aida, Rigoleto... It is clean and cosy BB with included breakfast.
Lovely lady from the hotel who guided us from the main square to the hotel and the superb local police who called the hotel to ask for help (see below, what we didn't like). Excellent room which was super clean, spacious, and worth a very comfortable bed.
The room was clean and tidy. The self-service breakfast was rich. Free parking on the site. Good location, but only reachable by car. We walked to Monreale Cathedral on feet, but this appeared not that simple.
A wonderful breakfast on the terrace, overlooking the sun bathed bay of Palermo and quiet opera music in the background. It was perhaps the most beautiful experience of my trip in Sicily.
This hotel is very well located in the centre of Monreale. We were met by the owner who showed us our room and helped us park the car in the hotel car park which is 5 minutes away.
