The staff went out of their way to assist us with any concerns or questions and took care of parking and bringing our car upon arrival and leaving for a minimal fee. Well worth it!

This place was really fantastic. It’s a short walk from the Parking where you can get a weekly pass. The owner was very prompt with sending us instructions, even the route to drive in and things to do as we left. The restaurant has an excellent for you your usual breakfast with served with lots of choices. We had dinner there one night and enjoyed the experience. The patio was also very nice to sip a drink or coffee. I would recommend this place and come back here again.

Best hotel I have stayed in.
Really enjoyed my stay at Hotel Elimo. Antonio, the manager, was very good. Providing exceptional service and information about possible places to visit. Also, the food in the restaurant was delicious. I had a Tuna Steak with French Fries on my last day there. I am from England but this was probably the best fish and chips I have ever had.

Best offer in Erice, good room
Easy Check-In/Check-Out and communicative staff. Location on main street, next of Porta Trapani & cable car. Our small & cheap room was a deal in April! Good breakfast. It was very clean, space for 2 small suitcases, keep the vibe of 60-70's!

A Jewel of a Hotel in Erice
Charming, well appointed accommodations, service was cheerful, helpful, and attentive. Though Erice is a pedestrian town, Antonio graciously helped with our car and luggage. You'll feel comfortable and cozy at the Elimo!

The hotel located in the center of the town, great for walking around the town, but not for driving (due to the narrow road). The common areas (lounge, interior courtyard, roof top patio) were beautiful and the restaurant had stunning view (but not open). The room was cozy and a little dated. Bed was comfortable. Onsite parking is 15 euro. Nice breakfast.

Hotel Elimo is an excellent choice for staying in Erice. The room was clean and spacious, the included breakfast was plentiful and tasty and Antonio (part host, part concierge, part car valet), whose English is quite fluent, couldn't have been more helpful.

This hotel is a hidden gem in Erice. Family run, Antonio went above and beyond. He provided a driver for a day trip to Trapani and Mozia, and recommended shops for unique items. He also saved me from my own driving in Erice! Thank you, Antonio!

Dear Michael, thanks for your stay with us and for your review. We hare happy everything was fine.About breakfast we are sorry for misunderstanding, because maybe my colleague told you that you cannot collect water bottle from the buffet to bring to your table, but you can refill it many times you want, because of many people are using the buffet and if you bring the bottle to the table other guests cannot use it. Hope to see you again. Grazie

Erice is an amazing medieval town and Hotel Elimo was the perfect place to stay to experience it. Antonio was exceptional as a host, very helpful and kind. The hotel is charmingly quirky. The courtyards are beautiful spaces, with the upper one providing lovely rooftop views. The dining room has a fantastic view. Our room was clean and large, a little dated. The bathtub was unexpected and greatly appreciated after weeks of small showers. November is a quiet time in Erice as the weather gets cooler and most places are closed. But still a magical place that oozes a magical atmosphere.

Perfect setting, in heart of medieval Erice. The hotel is on a cobbled hill, one of many in this beautiful town. Our quadruple room was clean and roomy, with a small seating space. No mini fridge or kettle though. Breakfast was plentiful - no hot food, but lots of cold variety. Parking is nearby at a cost of €2 for the first hour and €1 each hour after that. We paid the hotel for a valet service though - for €10 a day they will park your car for you (after dropping you and your bags to the door) and then return it as you need it, which was much better value. Cable car is minutes from the hotel. The castle is about 10 minutes walk. All in all, a smashing town that can be seen in a day.

Nice spot in Erice
Staff was very welcoming, gave clear direction about parking & good recommendations for eating. Parking conveniently located about 100 yards from the hotel. Would have been nice to know ahead of time about parking so we did not have to try to navigate the small streets in town. Parking 10 euros for a week, no daily rate. Beautiful panoramic views from the dining area. Convenient for exploring the town; easy drive to other local areas to explore including Segesta, San Vito Lo Capo, & Trapani.

We had a wonderful stay at the Hotel Elimo. This is a simple but charming hotel. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We arrived on a dark rainy night in Erice. The streets are very narrow and the staff helped us park our car in a safe place. We loved our stay there and Erice is wonderful!

The tv in room the screen is smaller than my laptop. And awoke to no hot water. Tried ringing ng reception and restaurant at 715 amd no answer. On check out np apologiesand rje waiter flicked a swirch and said there.....howeverwe qwre already packed. Really badly organised and not welcoming for guests

Lovely hotel in Erice near main gate
Lovely hotel not far from main gate (entrance) to medieval town high above Trapani. We stayed 1 night only but walked the entire town in mist at night & in beautiful sunshine the next day. Nice small shops, very good restaursnts & great scenery of the sea & town below. Good signs to different churches & castle in town. Nice small and very green park near castle. We had room #101 with sea view & 2 levels (1 BR upstairs w. bathroom & foldout sofa downstairs). We left all our luggage in 2nd bedroom which worked out just fine. Hotel staff very helpful with suggestions, restaurants & location of spots like Maria Grammatico pastry shop (also known for its Sicilian Cooking School). Besides eating pastries and cookies, we bought a wonderful handwoven cotton table runner. Beautiful ceramics with unique designs can be found in town too. Parking for your rental car is a little complicated but worksble. We parked in a 2 hr. Paid spot near main entrance to town and rolled our luggage to hotel. Front desk staff then moved our car to a free parking area. When we left, they got our car & drove our car up to the hotel front door and helped us load our luggage for a reasonable fee. If you prefer, you can have hotel staff help with luggage to hotel —-when you arrive. Stay a night or 2 in Erice.
