The breakfast was good enough and had everything we have asked for!
The two ladies were polite and offered us a good service!
Locanda Re Ruggero is set opposite the cathedral in the historic centre of Monreale, a picturesque town on the slopes of Mount Caputo. The air-conditioned rooms all feature free Wi-Fi.

It was the best location, the balcony (we had two) were big and had a great view at the Cathedral.
It was easy to find the parking after instructions and also to take the local bus to Palermo.
Communications were smooth. Monreale is beautiful.
The Agriturismo is an ancient farmhouse in perfect Sicilian style, where each apartment overlooks the internal courtyard.

Monreale is a city built on the side of the mountain, so be prepared to walk up hills and stairs! The big attraction there is the Duomo in the main square which is just beautiful in the inside as the artwork is done in gold! You will have to pay an entrance fee, but it is worth it. The streets can be a bit of challenge to navigate as there are street vendors, cars, vespas, bicycles and pedestrians all trying maneuver through the narrow streets. Monreale gives you a beautiful view of Palermo and the ocean.

We spent only an afternoon here, but so glad that we included it on our trip. The cathedral was the most beautiful we had seen on our trip to Italy - we also visited ones in Palermo, Cefalu, and Catania. There were several interesting restaurants on side streets near the town center and we found a lovely ceramic/mosaic shop just off the central square. Views were amazing and it was an easy car ride to the airport for our departure the next day.

Although you can get in the cathedral free to see the mosaics, I would suggest you get the inclusive tickets (€12) to see the Cloister, the Cathedral, the Sanctuary and get up to the roof for a fantastic view of the Cloister and the town.

For us the cathedral was the centrepiece, why we were there, and the 12th century mosaics were stunning. We also enjoyed seeing the cathedral packed with young, local families, after hundreds of years still a centre for the local community

The Duomo both inside and outside is spectacular.
The Duomo both inside and outside is spectacular. The small town itself is very picturesque as well, with some great little restaurants (e.g. Pepers and pizzeria Antica de Guillermo opposite the main entrance to the Duomo) and beautiful views of Palermo in the distance. It's a good place to stay as you avoid the pain of driving in the busy centre of Palermo. You can leave the car in Monreale and take a 20-minute bus ride into the centre for €1,40 one way. You get the bus tickets from any tobacconist.

The cathedral is breath-taking and worth a trip unto itself, but Monreale is also an ideal staging point for trips into nearby Palermo. We had great food and sight-seeing within Monreale itself and took advantage of a good bus system to spend a day in Palermo. It was easy to do and we enjoyed everything we did here.
This hotel was such a great find in Monreale. The host is friendly, helpful, and speaks good English. It’s surprisingly modern, with Chromecast on every TV, nice for relaxing in the room. And for the incredible included breakfast, you just order on your phone the day before and it’s waiting for you in the dining room the next morning. Everything so delicious. We would not hesitate to stay here again if we returned to Monreale.
We loved the location and the view! The hosts were very pleasant and were happy to arrange a taxi for us into Palermo. It is only a 20-minute walk into Monreale. The walk is along a road and the sidewalk does not cover the entire distance. It was fine for our family, but I would recommend anyone with small children take advantage of a taxi instead of walking. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again.
The breakfast was home made cakes and pastries, jams and juice from the garden and great coffee.
The host went above and beyond sharing her family home and knowledge of the local area. A peaceful location outside the busy centre of Palermo and 5 minute drive away from Monreale with a great vibe and amazing cathedral. We will recommend to our friends and will visit again.
This was a wonderful place to begin our tour of Sicily: the owners are extremely welcoming and helpful. They offered to drive us up to Monreale each day, and advised us on where to eat and where to go; they also provided us with a delicious breakfast each morning, including freshly squeezed orange juice, and gluten-free options for me, which I had asked for on booking.
We were a little lost and suddenly I see a man waving at me from the street. That’s how we met Paolo. The room, hospitality, vista was terrific. The location was directly across from the Monreale cathedral. Breakfast!! Imagine being on a terrific terrace overlooking the countryside with delectable treats and fruit. What a gem of a place, with a terrific host.
Very nice accomm, really close to the beautiful monreale catedral, free parking just next to the house, impeccably clean and tidy. Very attentive host who even brought us breakfast in the morning and recommended us some reststaurants and sights. Easy communication w the host. Good restaurants 5 min away. Perfect base to explore palermo, erice, etc...
The hosts were very nice and provided a nice breakfast each day of home baked dolces and made nice coffees. Very nicely renovated suites with panoramic views of Palermo and easy access to Monreale. A good choice if you have a car and want to do day trips from here. Rooms were comfortable and spacious. Way to go Rocce di Monreale !!
Perfect location to explore Monreale - just a walk down the road. Supermarket also fairly close by. Very easy to get a bus into Palermo (about 30 mins). Beautiful views from the apartment front overlooking the whole of the coast.
Parking available and very secure. Friendly helpful people. Quiet location.
The property was on the outskirts of Monreale and very quiet. Parking was available on site and the owners were very gracious hosts. Our room was very comfortable with a balcony that looked out across the valley and the ocean with Palermo in the distance.
The room was clean and tidy. The self-service breakfast was rich. Free parking on the site. Good location, but only reachable by car. We walked to Monreale Cathedral on feet, but this appeared not that simple.
Very friendly host. Amazing location right at the very start of Monreale. Amazing view to Palermo in the velly. Confortable big bed, clean bathroom.. Nice Pizzeria with very delicious pizzas.
This hotel is very well located in the centre of Monreale. We were met by the owner who showed us our room and helped us park the car in the hotel car park which is 5 minutes away.
If you are looking for a place to stay in Monreale this is a great place. Very friendly and helpful family. The room and pool area are modern and cozy decorated.
