De Stefano Palace, Luxury Hotel

In the historical center of Ragusa, the De Stefano Palace – Luxury Hotel stands out among many examples of late Baroque, neo-classical, art nouveau and eclectic architecture. The period residence, restored to its original and refined neo-classical elegance, is situated close to the down-town shopping area and at a short walk away from the path that leads to Ragusa Ibla.

The original façade and the excellent location make the De Stefano Palace a compendium of the natural, historic and artistic curiosities which characterise this corner of Sicily.

During refurbishment, preference was given to restoration of the original materials and the 19th century frescoes which embellish the ceilings of the rooms in the palace. The result is an intriguing and unexpected blend of an exceptional historic frame and an interior designed with furnishings tending to simple, restrained lines and contemporary comfort.
