Hey from Ilenia

Member since June 2019 | 8,426 hits

After years of working as an employee, in the consulting sector, I decide to make a change in my life. I invest in the renovation of my house close the Cathedral, in order to make one of my dreams come true: to dedicate myself to the promotion of the territory, of my land, in my city, Noto, one of the most loved by travelers from all over the world. I want my guests to be followed step by step in the exploration of all south-eastern Sicily, to give them the opportunity to have a true and full experience of the scents, flavors and colors of my beloved land, through the help in planning routes to discover the Val di Noto territory and sweet and savory breakfasts based on local products strictly at km 0.

Like home but in the awesome Noto. Our stay with Ilenia was wonderful from start to finish. With my husband Jorge, we traveled from very far, Concón, Chile, South America, to discover the beauty, history, and mysteries of Sicily. Our first stay was in Noto, to experience the In Fiorata. Everything was wonderful, we also fell in love with the city, with its unique baroque architecture, excellent gastronomy, its people, and all its magic. The excellent quality of the accommodation elevated our experience and made us very happy, because besides being impeccable, it has absolutely everything you need for a great rest (bed, shower, soundproofing, A.C., breakfast, and more), along with its unbeatable location, as from this hotel you can walk to any attraction in the historic center. We stayed in the blue room, which was very nice and cozy, despite not being so big, the spaces were well utilized, and it felt very comfortable and functional, plus it had good wifi, A.C., TV, and a balcony. However, what is truly unique about this B & B is the human quality of its hostess and owner, Ilenia, who is charming and will do everything possible to make your stay unforgettable and make you feel at home. Despite the language barrier, she made an effort to communicate with us and gave us the best advice, she prepared us delicious and varied gourmet breakfasts every day, with typical local products from the island, even on the last day she made us tiramisù. She was always attentive to our questions and needs, and by the second day, she already felt like a friend. It was very nice to exchange life experiences and customs. The 5 nights of stay passed too quickly. If we return to Noto, it will undoubtedly be to BaRock experience. Dear Ilenia, thank you very much, we left with our hearts full of love, we hope that one day, not too far away, you can visit us in Chile, it will be a pleasure to meet again, because we already miss you. A big hug and thank you for everything. With sincere affection and friendship, Lore and Jorge.

New and comfortable room, we had a beautiful terrace with a magnificent view. The hostess was attentive to all our needs, breakfast prepared by her was noteworthy with fresh brioche, cakes, homemade jams, and creams. Highly recommended.

I stayed in this very stylish B&B, in the heart of Noto this July, and had a wonderful stay there. The size of the room I booked was perfect for me, and the little mini-fridge in the room was definitely a nice touch, and useful for drinks after a hot day. Breakfast served by Ileana - the owner - was delicious, and abundant, and the atmosphere was very pleasant. I loved the fantastic location in the centre as well, which was perfect for exploring this beautiful Barock city. I would definitely return to this property, and highly recommend a stay there.

New accommodation, tastefully furnished, comfortable bed and impeccable cleanliness. Absolutely comfortable. The owner is delightful, kind and helpful. Absolutely recommended. A suggestion: turn on the air conditioning the evening before going out, so you will find the room cool when you return.
