| Built on the site of a 15th century monastery, the San Domenico Palace Hotel frames by a scene of rare beauty, which sweeps from the ancient Greek theatre to the peak of Mount Etna. |
EXPERIENCEWalking through the old monastery, its succession of cloisters and rooms, one discovers corners of rare magic. Memories of far-off history combine with the fascinating beauty of its external spaces and coexist with the multiplicity of offerings attuned to modern times: a fitness corner, a refreshing swimming pool, a pretty boutique, a corner for beauty treatments, an Internet point.
A stay at the San Domenico is an irresistibly pleasurable experience. The warm sunshine, the bright colours of Sicily, the fresh fragrances and cheerful twitter of nature, make you want to stand and gaze out the window of your room, your thoughts wandering to the bits of history and secret memories that this old monastery jealously preserves.
Unique moments, a rare and authentic emotion that is difficult to put into words.
The charm of the rooms, the freshness of the decor, incomparable panoramas... plus extreme comfort and elegant details. Deciding between the warmth of history in the Old Monastery wing or the spaciousness and sunshine of the more modern suites of the Grand Hotel wing is a choice that reflects each person’s desire to live the emotion of a unique place in a special, personal way.
The Principe Cerami restaurant is named after the Sicilian noble who, in 1866, by virtue of an old, long-hidden will, came into possession of the Dominican monastery and converted it into a hotel. An innovative philosophy of hospitality has flourished ever since within the walls of these charming and lovely facilities. A harmony of colours, a caress of soft lights and starry panoramas overlooking the sea, sge-old fragrances, delicate flavours, an ecstasy of taste - the Sicilian gastronomic tradition shines.
The Beauty Corner is the ideal choice for getting ready for a day in the sun or to take time out for an experience of absolute well-being, with its offering of massages and personal beauty treatments. In the summer, also under the candid gazebo in the lee of the pool. A shelter for getting back a bit of privacy and giving new lustre to the body, with the choice of a wide range of treatments and beauty applications for face and body featuring the exclusive Phytomer label, a natural line of marine cosmetics based on seawater and a variety of seaweeds, with surprising beneficial properties.
