We spent three nights at the Hotel Palazzo Failla in Room 113D in early June 2013. We thought that our room was very romantic with red wallpapered walls depicting classical scenes, and a massive bathroom that included a double jacuzzi whereby two people could lie next to each other comfortably. The bathroom lights included a ceiling star constellation above the... More

We stayed here and loved the location and service. The hotel room was very clean and the shower/sauna was great except it wasn't easy to figure out. Dinner was good and it was fun to meet the chef. This is a quaint nice place to stay. Modica is very old, pretty, and a nice change from the big cities of... More

We were at the Hotel Failla last week as part of a cooking tour organized by the International Kitchen. Everything about the tour was outstanding, including the cooking classes at the Michelin restaurant on premises and the daily escorted tours of southern Sicily.We and our friends would highly recommend it to anyone interested in such a trip. But this is... More

The Palazzo Failla was a great place to stay. The service was excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive and capable. The associated restaurant, La Gazza Ladra, is a Michelin one-star site.

Lovely little hotel, beautiful room with a sauna/ shower - a new experience not to be missed. The staff really make the place and were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable of the area.

Giulia is probably the most helpful hotel receptionist in Italy, if not the world She passes easily from one language to another and has good guidance and ideas and tips in all of them, always with a smile.

This unique building is a historical palazzo with very large rooms including all amenities. The Hotel comes with a lock up garage at an extra cost and free Wi-fi. Unfortunately we... More

We were passing through Modica and spent a night here. Comfortable and well-provided, with a friendly, efficient welcome. But the outstanding thing for us was breakfast - absolutely sumptuous - a wonderful array of meats, cheeses, breads and fruits.

Going slightly off season we got a very good rate on this charming and unique hotel. The owners daughter was running reception during our stay and was welcoming, delightful and informative. She gave us a complete virtual tour annotating a map for us as she did so and really should be running an academy for hotel staff. The breakfast was... More
