Hotel
Domus Aurea has been reborn again in the Valley of the Temples after
an accurate restoration that has brought this villa of the XVIII
century to the ancient splendour of such long time ago, when this
"casa" was a meeting Place for the local nobility and travellers,
who in the Grand Tour went by in order to stay in the mythical
Valley, searching among the ancient ruins of the myth of Gods and
heroes of Magna Grecia. With today’s renewals and the transformation
into hotel they have tried to recreate the charm "d'antan", taking
back the building to that discreet allure, that Sicilian aristocracy
loved to give to the country house, which just having stylistic
preciosities, didn't subside to un-useful baroquisme, which were so
dear to the Spanish culture, that during the XVIIth and XVIIIth
centuries raged in all streets of Sicily. The Hotel Domus Aurea
opens in romantic scenery, ideal for those travellers who search for
these historic residences and not for icy hotels... Here the respect
for guests is equal to that offered to a dear friend who came from
far away countries, giving as a prize to the traveller a mixture of
sensation that only the unrepeatable uniqueness of a place like
Domus Aurea can offer.
The recently opened restaurant "IL Giardino" offers tipical sicilian
food in a cosy atmosphere where in summer time, guests can have
dinner on the terrace with the Temples' hill view lighting.
Las but not least, guests may enjoy from June 15 to September 15 a
private beach with facilities just 500 Mts. away. |
