San Carlo Suites

Noto


Enviably located in a mid-18th-century palazzo on Noto's showcase thoroughfare, this thoughtfully designed, seven-room property contrasts historic furniture, maiolica, paintings and stone arches with contemporary perks, from large showers to in-room Bialetti coffee machines. Two suites come with balconies overlooking Corso Vittorio Emanuele and the cathedral, while a third suite comes with a private roof terrace. The Sicilian-accented breakfast includes organic edibles.
