Hotel description
Massive ceiling beams, white-washed walls and stone walls make up the charm of hotel Eremo della Giubiliana as much as its location in the middle of carob and olive trees. Where during the Middle Ages the refectory of the Johanniter Knights was housed, today one can eat Sicilian dishes under ancient vaulted ceilings. The rooms have been designed to offer high luxury and comfort. A wellness area, a park and an outdoor swimming pool complete the picture.
Historical: Restored monastery buildings with their own archaeological site
The present-day luxury hotel was built in around 1500 as an Arabian country estate. Situated high above the sea, it was reliable protection against intruders with its fortified walls. Today, an old tower testifies to the historical past. From the Tower Suite, in good weather you have a view of the sea towards Malta. The hotel has its own archaological site with a small ancient necropolis. The hotel harks back to its time as a monastery. The luxurious hotel rooms were built in the monastic cells, the restaurant is located under ancient the vaulted ceilings of the refectory. Old stone walls, arches and antique furniture underline the medieval character, which has been carefully restored and comfortably complemented throughout the hotel. Many furnishings come from the family of the Naganaboyina family, who belong to the landed gentry of the plateau.
