Hotel Colleverde Park, Agrigento

Located within lush gardens of around 10,000 sq metres, it blends well into the landscape and the valley with views of the nearest temples - yet only 2km from the town and 4km from the nearest beaches.

Facilities: No swimming pool, but very good location and secure private parking. The rooms have garden or countryside views - air-conditioned of course and equipped with colour TV, safe and a mini bar - whilst the ensuite bathrooms are equipped with hairdryers.

Although a modern hotel, the public rooms have a classic style in decoration and furnishing whilst the large restaurant opens up on a large terrace for out-door dining.
