Albergo Belvedere

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Belvedere! We spent our first night hiking the magna via Francigena in Santa Cristina Gela and had a fantastic night. It is a lovely town full of very nice welcoming people. Belvedere was wonderful- the rooms are simple but very comfortable, the food in the restaurant is incredible, and the hosts Giovanni and Mima totally made our trip. They are friendly, informative, and made us feel very welcome and at ease. We hope to be back! Highly recommend a stop here.

We walked to Albergo Belevedere from Palermo at the start of our 17 day trek across Sicily in April, 2023. Mimma and Giovanni greeted us so warmly that we felt at home right away. In fact, before we even realized what was happening, Giovanni had carried our packs up to our room for us, perhaps having realized how exhausted we really were. Our room (and the entire hotel) was spotless and the beds were very comfortable. We were able to wash out some clothing and they helped us hang it so that it would be sure to dry by morning. Dinner was lovely with tasty pasta and a large salad, and breakfast the next morning included all sorts of tempting and fortifying choices, including locally grown, very sweet and juicy oranges. But the real highlight of our stay was being together with Giovanni and Mimma, both of whom were so genuine, caring and warm. You could never have guessed that we were just transient pilgrims, staying for only one night, soon to pass out of their lives and be replaced by the next day's guests. What a truly wonderful experience we had with them!
