This was a friends pick but it wasn't too bad. The common areas are beautiful and the rooms have some nice details. The bathrooms were nice but the shower was a hair bigger than a regular Italian shower. Like someone said before it is odd to have soap dispensers that are empty. The beds were old and needed some updating... More

Castelbuono is a lovely little place, well worth a visit and an overnight stay. The hotel was not out of this world but I would recommend it as it is handily located, you can safely park on the street outside, the staff are friendly, the room was perfectly adequate and clean. On the downside the soap dispensers in the shower... More

We recently moved to Sicily and wanted to drive around the island. We decided to go to Cefalu and chosed the Ypsigro at Castelbuono. The city is about a 15 minute drive to Cefalu. Castelbuono is a charming little town with plenty to do. Our experience at the hotel made our time in Castelbuono even better. The staff was very... More

We used the hotel as our base to explore the region, and could not fault it, we had a great room (405) with a balcony overlooking the... More

Ypsigro Palace is a great hotel! Our room was huge, fantastic shower, balcony and easy parking on the street. The hotel is located right below the castle and from there it is easy to walk all over town. Breakfast was bountiful; yogurt, juice, cornetti, ham and cheese, marmalades and cold cereal. Very clean and the staff is fantastic!

We were pleasantly surprised by our stay at the Ypsigro Palace. Despite previous negative reviews, the breakfast was really nice, with a relatively large choice of beverages and food. The food was of quality, comparing with other hotels we stayed in. It was easy to park in the street in front of the hotel. Castelbuono has several good restaurants well... More

This hotel is an excellent base for those wanting to explore The Madonie region. It has easy parking and is situated 5 minutes walk from the village core. Lots of good restaurants in the area. The rooms are modern clean and warm in winter. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is average. Would certainly stay here again.
