Description
In the very heart of a “split pomegranate” – as the city of Modica is often referred to – amidst a late-baroque, grain-colored architecture, within a building of the second half of the 19th century, that has belonged for many centuries to the same family and looks on a garden with luxuriant lemon-trees, is the “L’Orangerie”, a stylish Bed & Breakfast offering a relaxing stay in elegant rooms and spacious attics looking over flowered terraces where you can consume your breakfast, otherwise served in the picturesque “d’antan” kitchen.

All the rooms and apartments are equipped with stylish furniture, as a perfect combination of comfort and historical ambience; on the walls ranging in colors from coral to brick red, to cream-yellow and dark-green, are outstanding works of contemporary graphic arts, that along with the historical design give the rooms a quaint and charming feel.

Breakfast
La colazione di L'ORANGERIE
As you wake up in the morning, you will be welcomed by the aromas of freshly baked croissants, slices of freshly toasted bread and, if in season, orange juice.

You can't miss the taste of Modican chocolate, 'mpanatigghi, small pasta parcels filled with meat and chocolate.

Tea, coffee, cappuccino, and hot chocolate are the perfect accompaniments to the local jams or Iblean honey.

This is the perfect way to start your day when visiting this amazing region.

Great location. A few steps and you're right in the center! Rooms are like mini apartments. The common areas are elegant, a historic residence that exudes a noble family atmosphere. The owner is very helpful but not intrusive at all: if you ask, you will receive. We will gladly return.

The structure has a remarkable charm and allows you to fully savor the Sicilian air of the last century. I appreciated the host's information and the peace that prevailed in the structure. Recommended for those who want to enjoy the flavors of old Sicily.

L’Orangerie is a beautiful Bed and Breakfast located in a small street in the lower part of Modica, close to all major points of interest. A structure obtained in a historic building. The room was perfect: spacious, clean, and with a small balcony overlooking the town. Varied and abundant breakfast with the possibility to taste typical sweets and chocolate, all served in bowls and cups in Caltagirone ceramics. The owner was very courteous and provided us with some information about the city, as well as the surrounding area. We couldn’t have asked for more, I feel like recommending this place also considering the excellent value for money.

In the photos it looks completely different, the structure has its ancient beauty but needs renovation, in the room there was a musty smell and it was not very clean. I did not like the colored and old towels. Modest breakfast. Pay attention to the directions on Google Maps that lead you to a street so narrow that you can get stuck or scrape the car. Price too high. I would not return.

Beautiful residence in the historic center. As soon as you enter the entrance gate, you immediately breathe the atmosphere of important residences with precious materials, well-kept furnishings, and original paintings. The room is simple but full of details, comfortable bed and finally a rich and satisfying breakfast accompanied by the presence of the host, a very kind and affable person. B&B absolutely recommended!

I have been frequenting L'Orangerie for years, an elegant and discreet structure in the center of Modica. I love the furnishings that blend contemporary design with early 1900s elements, the frescoed ceilings, the terraces full of jasmine and passionflower. This year the measures for sanitization and social distancing have completely satisfied me. Always admirable the kindness and cultured and polite conversation of the owner.

Very pleasant B&B. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, in a beautiful building in the historic district of Modica. The hosts are very friendly and willingly share their knowledge of the region. The immediate proximity to Cours Umberto allows for leisurely strolls on foot in the lively and historic neighborhoods without experiencing the nuisances: this B&B is very peaceful. We will return without any hesitation!

Fascinating historically renovated apartment, only small flaw the mattresses are a bit too hard for my taste. The pedestrian access from the parking lots of Corso Umberto is a short staircase.

We had a delightful stay at L'Orangerie which was an authentic little gem in Modica. Giovanni and Maria were very welcoming and lovely hosts - nothing was too much trouble for them. The location is excellent- a quiet yet central street- and we would certainly love to stay there again.

Senso di relax, in un ambiente fine e curato, ricco di storia. Posizione ottima, nel centro storico, ma allo stesso tempo tranquilla e immersa in un'atmosfera molto suggestiva. Il servizio ottimo in tutto. La colazione abbondante e ricca di prodotti tipici, buonissimi.

Soggiorno ottimo. Struttura nel centro di Modica ma silenziosa. Stanze ben arredate e pulite, gli ambienti molto curati ed eleganti. Un grazie al Titolare Sig. Giovanni molto cortese e disponibile e alla signora che si occupa della colazione. Gradito assaggio cioccolato azteco della cioccolateria Bonajuto. Struttura consigliata. Ci ritorneremo.

Le camere sono arredate con gusto e sono dotate di un gradevole terrazzino. Ottima colazione con prodotti locali e freschi. Consigliatissimo.

Si tratta di un B&B di lusso. Tutto super ok. Camera pulitissima, luogo silenziosissimo; colazione abbondantissima, ricca di dolci freschi e genuini con vasta scelta e con l'utilizzo dell'ottimo cioccolato tipico di Modica; gestore gentilissimo e disponibilissimo; B&B situato proprio in centro, praticamente proprio a due passi dal corso principale. Come potete notare nello scrivere la mia recensione ho fatto uso esclusivo del superlativo assoluto, naturalmente perché la struttura merita un tale giudizio.

Uno dei primi B&B modicani e di certo uno dei più eleganti, in un antico palazzo nobiliare. Ho mandato decine di miei ospiti presso questa struttura e i loro commenti sono sempre stati entusiasti. A pochi gradini da Piazza Matteotti e dal Corso Umberto, il centro storico e culturale della città. Le camere sono arredate finemente e alle pareti si trovano quadri dei pittori della Scuola di Scicli. Se cercate lo charme, l'avete trovato.
