Hotel Carmine  

Great people, great hotel

Very nice atmosphere in this old Square Carmine in Marsala. Very nice and calm gardens. Super

This hotel is just magnificent right down town Marsala. The room is very spacious with some very nice furniture. The breakfast is copious with fresh cakes and fresh orange juice. The personnel is very helpful and friendly. Very good address to recommend.

Great hotel - should be four star but they don't have a restaurant for the evening.

Hotel Carmine is a luxury hotel. The public spaces are large and very beautiful, the rooms spacious and very comfortable, the included breakfast almost too good to be true (a large banquet table laden with large selections of fruits, pastries, cheeses, meats, etc etc). It was my 60th birthday also our wedding anniversary, and as a courtesy the front desk sent a couple of glasses of good Marsala wine to our room soon after arrival, and later in the evening sent two small bottles of Prosecco to our room. They also put us in a room with an almost private balcony (we had no one staying next to us, so it was private for our night there). The location is good, the neighborhood is very nice and quiet, and there are restaurants within a few minutes walk. The one we liked was Trattoria Garibaldi in the piazza near the Garibaldi Gate, about 5 minute walk from the hotel. In the morning we left to go to Trapani, so we had the front desk call a taxi to take us to the train station with plenty of time to spare, or so we thought. Forty five minutes later the taxi still hadn't come despite the front desk calling again, and we missed our train. The woman at the front desk finally got us a taxi, and helped us with getting a somewhat reduced fare from Marsala to Trapani. Our final destination was Erice, so about halfway to Trapani our cab driver made us an offer we couldn't refuse to take us all the way to Erice (60 Euro), not cheap, but in the end well worth it. Our host in Erice told us it was a very good deal, so we felt as if we were not led astray by the front desk at Hotel Carmine. However, in retrospect, if you don't want the same thing to happen to you, make arrangements for a taxi the night before you are planning to need it. Otherwise, everything was perfect.

Every space in the hotel, public or private, was beautiful. The staff was very efficicient. Location was great.

Helpful staff. Good location in the old town. Great lounge area inside plus a lovely lush rear garden and seating area. Excellent spread for breakfast.

Parking can be a bit of an issue though the staff assisted with relocating car when there wasn’t a ‘proper’ spot available. Stone hallways tended to echo noise a bit Wireless internet had very limited range.

Absolutely beautiful hotel with the wonderful decor and the lovely garden area. Breakfast was very nice and good quality. The hotel parking was at the front door - perfect- and the main part of town was a short walk from the hotel. Local garden restaurant nearby - la Bottega del Carmine - lovely food and great service.

Hotel does not have at all the internet WiFi in the whole hotel as advertised. Not at all. Means, you'll never have full WiFi in the hotel unless being standing in front of the lobby. And the WiFi certainly not goes to the rooms, or even in the garden. Not at all. This is a blatant lie to say that you'll be able to access it anywhere.

Very friendly and helpful staff. It is a pity we could not stay longer and that we had to leave too early to enjoy breakfast. The hotel building is a beautifully restored old building and you have al the shs and nice restaurants nearby. Lovely! Our quadruple room was perfect. Close to the airport ( about 15 min. drive)

Lovely breakfast setting and very helpful staff.

Superb location, really good breakfast,beautifully designed rooms. It was good to see a courtyard garden in the middle of a city.

Lovely hotel , very well priced. Breakfast buffet great, if a bit sweet. Parking is free which is wonderful.

Room is a bit small - and could use another suit case holder . A gentleman approaching you for money everytime you park the car is a bit intimidationg. He is not hotel staff >
