Formerly a private residence, this 18th century palace is a unique property. Since undergoing extensive renovations including all rooms and public areas, the Villa Athena is the best hotel in Agrigento.
The hotel is in a stunning location overlooking the Temple of Concordia and some of the 27 individually furnished, modern bedrooms enjoy the temple view (supplements on request). The summer swimming pool is set in the garden amongst olive trees and gives guests the opportunity to relax within a stones’ throw of one of Italy’s most intriguing archaeological sites. There is a wonderful restaurant where you can experience al fresco dining that focuses on the best of traditional southern Sicilian cuisine and chef Salvatore Gambuzza runs cookery lessons for guests on request. Opposite the hotel entrance, on the site of an ancient Greek cistern, a modern spa has been added with jacuzzi, steam bath and gym.
