Very nice hosts - helpful and kind. B&B was a little gem

High standards and beautiful interior decoration. Gentle and refined host. Rich and tasty breakfast.

Great property and excellent host. Would stay there again!

Oh my goodness. We left this morning and already miss Sonia and her dad. Once again, the most beautiful room ever and the most beautiful hosts ever. We will never forget your kind attention, interesting conversation and all the help you so freely gave us. What a delight your family is. What a work of art you have created. Bravo!!!

Excellent location and a beautiful period building. Family owned and run and they made us most welcome.

The service was exceptional and the house a little piece of history. The building has been impeccably restored, is immaculately kept throughout and located right at the centre of the town. We stayed 2 nights and regret we couldn't stay longer. Our hosts Sonia, Nathan and Salvatore could not have been more helpful and welcoming and we hope to return again someday. it is quite rare to come across a place as unique and special as Palazzo Melluso.

Amazing apartment with so much character. Very good location in center of town. Amazing service and wonderful host.

La struttura con i suoi stupendi affreschi sembra farti vivere dentro a un romanzo di Tomasi da Lampedusa. La camera è semplicemente mozzafiato e il letto comodissimo. La posizione è stupenda, di fronte alla casa Natale di Camilleri e alla via centrale di Porto Empedocle.

Il palazzo è un tripudio di eleganza del primo Novecento, situato proprio in centro a due passi da tutto. Bellissimo tornare da una giornata in spiaggia e potersi rilassare nella vasca.

- la maîtresse de maison Graziella/Grace pour sa discrétion, sa disponibilité, sa gentillesse et son savoir-vivre - la qualité et le confort de la literie - la très efficace et très discrète climatisation - l'histoire et la beauté du style Liberty - le petit déjeuner absolument copieux et varié avec des produits frais, variés et locaux - l'emplacement à 10 minutes de la vallée des temples et à 10 minutes de la magnifique plage de la Scala dei turchi - les petites attentions dans la chambre avec l'eau et les fruits frais

Host Information
Il B&B si trova all’interno dello storico Palazzo Melluso fatto costruire da Giovanni Melluso, Vice Console di Danimarca, rappresenta un esempio concreto della florida condizione economica che ha vissuto la città di Porto Empedocle alla fine del 1800 e presenta elementi originali e di pregio della scuola Liberty dell’Architetto Ernesto Basile (1857 – 1932). I proprietari che si sono succeduti hanno eseguito diversi restauri conservativi per mantenere inalterato l’impianto di costruzione originario, gli affreschi e tutti i dettagli d'arte della casa: infissi decorati con vetri e maniglie dell’epoca, mobili sono d’epoca, restaurati con cura e in perfette condizioni; mattonelle in ceramica del pavimento originario sono state dismesse e conservate e in parte inserite come riquadri nel parquet del pavimento; salone con un bellissimo camino in marmo pregiato e perfettamente funzionante.
Porto Empedocle é una città per vivere intensamente il mare! A est la spiaggia del Caos, sovrastata dall"altipiano d'argille azzurre, sul mare africano" dove nacque Luigi Pirandello; a ovest si estendono chilometri di arenili di sabbia dorata, come Marinella (2 km) e Lido Azzurro (3,4 km), attrezzati e frequentati per la balneazione; partenza in nave per l'Isola di Lampedusa, la più bella Isola del Mediterraneo. Palazzo Melluso dista 8 km da Agrigento, 6 km dalla Valle dei Templi a 3 km dalla Casa Natale di Luigi Pirandello e a 5 km dalla bellissima scogliera bianca della Scala dei Turchi.

Legal information
Private hosts
Hosts who have registered with Booking.com as a private host are parties that rent out their property or properties for purposes which are outside their trade, business, or profession. They are not officially traders (like a global hotel chain) and therefore may not fall under the same consumer protection rules under EU law, but don’t worry, Booking.com provides you with the same customer service as we do with any stay. This doesn’t mean that your stay or experience will be any different than booking with a professional host.
