We stayed one night after visiting Piazza Armerina and the Villa del Casale. The hotel is just outside Piazza Armerina, and the town center is reachable in a few minutes by car. Friendly and helpful staff, easy parking. We stayed in room 104, a comfortable suite, clean and full of light. During our February visit, the outside temperature was between 4 and 15 and the room was perfectly heated. Delicious breakfast, continental with a variety of choices. Fresh, flaky croissants and Sicilian pastries. Oat, soy, almond and cow milk available for our cappuccinos, served by a friendly lady. Overall very clean and comfortable with nice attention to detail.

I chose Al Ritrovo so we could drive there from Catania airport without having to navigate through Piazza Armerina in the dark. We did not arrive at the hotel in the best of moods. After chaos at the airport car rental desk, and then the chaos of Sicilian road signs, we arrived after their restaurant had closed, and most things were in darkness. So we went to bed tired and hungry. Luckily the bed was comfortable, and the room quiet (even though the hotel is sandwiched between two roads), so we slept well. And breakfast was worth waiting for. Served in the sunny walled garden, there was a good spread of sweet and savoury. We left much happier than we arrived! Maybe next time we might get to try the restaurant.

This is a very convenient place to stay if you want to see the Villa Romana del Casale and Morgantina. There is ample private parking. Staff are friendly and helpful. We appreciated the carrying of luggage to our rooms, not all that common. Next door is a very pleasant pizza restaurant, so you do not have to travel for a meal. When we stayed the evening was cool, but the room was warm. The bathroom had a wonderful shower and sauna system.

We found this hotel by chance when planning a road trip in Sicily. Fantastic, if you do not mind a little bit of an extra drive. Not too many rooms so the hotel keeps its charm and friendly atmosphere. Great hotel, very clean, very comfortable bed and staff are pleasant and cheerful. Highly recommended! We will be visiting again in the very near future!

Place is alright. Location is far from downtown. Shower was very small, like the ones we can buy from Home Depot ready to install. Bathroom dark. Room was just alright. Breakfast was poor. We had dinner at their pizzeria restaurant and it was good. People are very friendly. Giusy was amazing with her costumer service. Piazza Armerina itself was not a place that we would go back to visit.

This hotel is a few minutes on the opposite side of town from the Villa Romana del Casale (in other words, it's a few minutes by car into town, a few minutes to go through town, then a few more minutes to get to the Villa). There is rarely someone at the front desk, and one generally has to phone the restaurant, and someone will come in to help. The staff are all quite nice, but none speaks a word of English. Our room was on the ground floor, and there was no highway noise from that floor, as others have complained about. It may be a problem in higher floors. When entering the hallway, you kind of have to take a "leap of faith" into the darkness, because the lights only turn on after you enter the hallway (motion sensor). The rooms are clean and comfortable, but the TV's don't have a single channel in any language other than Italian. The restaurant had a number of different items on the menu, and it gets quite full with locals after 9 PM, but I never saw anyone order anything but pizza. We did the same (the pizza was quite good). The breakfast was OK. Not among the best of our trip, but certainly quite adequate. Parking is easy and plentiful. I might have rated this place more highly, but it advertises as a 4*, and it's nowhere near that by any stretch of the imagination. It hardly even qualifies as a 3*. There is nothing extra one might associate with a 4*, such as a pool, fitness center, or hot tub, and I don't see how a place with no front desk staff, no bilingual staff, and limited TV channel selection can call itself a 4*. The 3* we stayed for the next 4 days in Catania was significantly nicer (Hotel Mediterraneo). If I had to do it over again, we would have visited the Villa as a day trip from Catania or Palermo--the highway connections are quite good.

Al Ritrivo gave us a great place to stay as we prepared to see Piazza Armerina, and specifically the amazing Roman Villa, a must-see.. The decor was very nice, and although the bathroom was quite small, the room was comfortable and polished. We did have one complaint. There weren't many people staying at the hotel when we were there and the front desk clerk was away most of the time, leaving all the room keys, and our passports, unattended and in plain sight. She showed us our room initially, but we never saw her again. She left her laptop and at one point even her pocketbook on the chair. We rang the bell several times at different times, and in the morning when we were leaving, but no one ever came. I have no idea where she went. Other than that, the hotel was great and the restaurant is the bomb and served us the best Pizza we have had in a while. A liter of great wine for €6 is a nice touch too. Go there!

We arrived with no reservation and were given a lovely room with a big bathroom and a hydromassage shower. The location was right off the highway, large parking lot, good restaurant (populated by locals) with good pizza. Room was very clean, the staff very efficient and the breakfast was more than we could eat. For the second morning we told them we really did not need the meat and cheese platter; juice, cornetti, the basket of breads, and yogurt was more than enough!

We had a suite, and although the bathroom was modern (though shower cubicle was very small) the furnishings in the sitting area can best be described as "quaint". Bedroom contained a TV, very firm bed and sidetables. Large terrace outside, but we didn't use it as it was raining the night we were there. No wi-fi. Small refrigerator in room, but no glasses for drinks. These were provided on request by the pleasant staff. Good restaurant on site. It was quite a way out of town, so we didn't get to see Piazza Armerina old town.
