What seems to have upset him was my request to see the room before we had our luggage taken up there. I was given the impression that it really wasn’t necessary as they were full and even if the...

We had the most glorious room at the Villa Athena where we stayed for 2 nights. Our huge terrace had a direct view of the Temple of Concordia and also the hotel pool and lovely garden. The breakfast was very good. The only regret was having dinner there the first night. The food was just OK but very expensive and... More

We wish to thank the wonderful staff of Villa Athena in Agrigento for making our stay a very special one. The beauty of our room overlooking the Temples was only surpassed by the discreet and outstanding service.

All exceeded expectations, however the outside patio was not available due to improvement in progress and the cappuccino was not adequate. It should be made the traditional way and not with machines... More

A fantastic jewel of a hotel with an exceptional view and an amazing location. We had a suite which accomodated us and our two children and a big bathroom.
