Hotel Akrabello, Agrigento

Located in a countryside setting, this modern but unusually styled hotel is on the fringe of Agrigento and some 2km from the valley of the temples and about 3km from the sea.

Attractive to look at with symmetrical shape and built partly in local lime stone, it is a tourist hotel with some 100 bedrooms but it also has some pleasant gardens, a large swimming pool, two restaurants and two bars and a tennis court.

The rooms are fully air-conditioned and each has en suite bathroom (with hairdryer) and cable TV.
