Was a good stay. Rooms clean and comfortable. Only issue was we lost WIFI. They said it was due to the storm we had that night.

Nice hotel in a, quiet location at the end of town. You can get to everything from here on foot. Good directions on where to park, what to see and do. Very nice staff. It would have been helpful for the hotel to send WhatsApp directions on the best way to reach the hotel; we ended up in the middle of the cobblestone town trying to navigate through it. Instead there was a second easier way (all paved roads) to the hotel we found out when leaving.

Il Carmine was previously a religious building and I can only feel envy for its past occupants - a beautiful building with lovely cool rooms and shuttered windows. It’s in a great location with virtually no noise around the building. The restaurant is also lovely!

Superb hotel! Definitely recommended. Parking was super easy & right beside the hotel. Erice is a beautiful city so if you have the opportunity to get there, I highly recommended you go to Il Carmine

Interesting property being what i believe to be an ex-monastery. It’s still retains that feel. It was comfortable but I felt the service was below par. Breakfast was just about acceptable with bread, cake, a few slices of cheese and slivers of processed meat. It is well located within Erice. It wouldn’t take an awful lot of effort to see improvements at the hotel.

Erice is lovely, hotel is well located and easy to find n park. If it had a safe and kettle and tea n coffee in the room it would be 10/10 for me. Many Italian hotels provide such facilities these days.

Convent beautifully redone into hotel. I had my best meal of our three week trip in Italy here! Customer service was excellent. Room and bathroom were ridiculously large even by American standards. Bathroom was like a spa with whirlpool tub.

We loved the hilltop village of Erice. It was like going back in time. And we especially loved our room overlooking the large courtyard at the old convent turned hotel. This small hotel had everything to meet our needs and we felt very comfortable and welcomed. While most restaurants were closed on Sunday night, we found a great cozy restaurant with wonderful food, as is the case is all of Scicily.

Il Carmine has very competent and helpful staff. The location is ideal in a beautiful local town. You will need to walk up some steps/hill to get to the main area of the town. The parking area is closeby so perfect if you have a car. A nice comfortable stay in a beautiful location.

We loved our stay in Erice. The hotel is lovely, very minimalistic but super comfortable. We arrived late afternoon to beautiful sunshine and enjoyed the fantastic views before the fog rolled in. Breakfast was very good, lots of choices for a buffet and good coffee. Free parking just across the piazza which was a plus for us. Lots of good restaurants to choose from for an evening meal.

The hotel is great, quiet, clean with pleasant staff and the location is good. We weren't lucky with the weather, it was cold and rainy and I think one night is enough to visit the town.

Nice B&B on edge of Erice town, located in old monastery. Good breakfast options, room was clean, and wifi worked well. Check out was a bit impersonal but otherwise, a good option in Erice in a unique place. Information on hotels.com indicated they accept credit card, which is not true, as I was informed in a bit of a rude manner.

The hotel staff was very helpful. The facility was beautiful and tranquil. Rooms were large and could accommodate a family. Our room had a queen bed and bunk beds. Would consider a longer stay next time for relaxation and meditation. Breakfast was excellent.

Booked 4 nights and left after 1 night. Would have left immediately but had no options. This is NO WAY anything but a 2 star place to stay at. There was no hotel staff other than a t shirt dressed teenager to do nothing other than hand me my key. To park I had to take a 20 min walk to get a parking pass. When I asked about air conditioning, I was told "we don't provide that service". It was 90 degrees in the room. The TV was a 10" tube TV from 20 yrs ago that didn't work. The bed was a single mattress on a spring frame. The same as a college dorm room. The room smelled strongly of cleaning fluid when we arrived. As I said there was no staff, so I was forced to carry all luggage up 2 flights of steps with no help. Erice is fascinating and worth visiting, but I strongly recommend staying somewhere else.

THe converted convent, now a spacious and serene hotel, is not hard to find and there is a chance to park, which is not always the case in the very narrow streets of Erice.It has a lovely courtyard, whihc must be a bessing in the summer.The place is very clean and bright and calm - the rooms are large. The bathroom for our double room was spotless.The breakfast is buffet-style, but there is someone in the kitchen to cook eggs the way you want them. The coffee could be better, but the baked goods were excellent.

Il Carmine was a former Carmelite Monastery. The building is well looked after. We were there in February. The rooms were heated with hot water radiators, very comfortable. The staff were helpful and spoke English. We ate a wonderful breakfast. We were sorry we did not stay there longer.
