Q92 Noto Hotel

Hotel review

Q92 Noto is a nine room boutique hotel in Noto, Sicily. It's the latest project from award-winning hoteliers the Quartucci family. Their other hotels Hotel Villa Ducale and Hotel Villa Carlotta are two of the best luxury hotels on the island and we expect Q92 to follow suit. This new boutique hotel is all about style and location. Q92 is a 17th-century baroque palazzo in one of the best locations in the UNESCO world heritage site of Noto in Corso Vittorio Emanuele. Opposite the famous Caffè Sicilia and with views of the cathedral and historical sites Q92 is set to become the best place to stay in Noto. Inside you'll find a contemporary style combining understated classical elegance with the grandeur of a noble palazzo with high ceilings and thick stone walls.

The nine air-conditioned rooms and suites have been impeccably restored reflecting the aristocratic history and stature of the building. Furnished with bespoke wooden and leather furniture the rooms are bright, sunny and incredibly comfortable with king-size beds and satin cotton sheets. The en-suite bathrooms are just as luxurious with cotton and linen towels complemented by ETRO bath and body products designed exclusively for Q92. The Suites have large balconies that flood the rooms with light and where you can sip good Sicilian wine whilst watching the world go by.

The pretty internal garden has a small pool with sun loungers amongst the lemon trees and this is where you'll find the honesty bar, exclusive to hotel guests. The Quartucci family are known world-wide for their exceptional hospitality and now you can find it in Noto at Q92. Breakfast is served indoors or outdoors (depending on the weather), and the rooms have designer minibars with soft drinks and bubbles. Snacks and drinks are served throughout the day in the baroque lounges and on the panoramic terrace overlooking the cathedral.

During the summer months mix up some culture with a day trip to the beach and head to Aqua Beach in San Lorenzo Noto where you can rent some loungers and umbrellas for just €10 a day and stay for a light lunch.
