Outstanding hotel
We had a wonderful stay at the Villa Athena. We booked the temple view room (definitely worth it, the view was unbelievable) and had dinner on the terrace. You will not find a better hotel in Agrigento. Was the highlight of our trip to Sicily.

Really excellent hotel in all respects. Porter comes to meet car and take baggage. Check in staff really friendly and helpful and show to room in person- in fact all staff were the same. We had small garden suite with shady garden area and superb room. Super comfortable bed and lovely strong shower. Fantastic roof terrace for lunch/dinner overlooking Valley of Temples - unbelievable views especially when lit up at night. Food is gourmet standard and even breakfast is cooked to order rather than buffet - great! Lovely pool and gardens too. In fact I have to say this is one of the best hotels I have stayed in which is saying a lot. Will be recommending to all my friends and family and hope to return one day.

Our stay at Villa Athena was amazing. The view of Concordia from our room was breathtaking. The staff was professional, thoughtful and always doing little things to make our stay special. We took advantage of the experiences that the hotel offered. We had a cooking class and had a picnic at Athena Farms. The spa was nice and the massage heavenly. Each meal in the terrace was delicious. It was a respite in the middle of our trip. We will cherish the memories made at Villa Athena.

Front doorman: he just ignored us when we were carrying our backpacks along with other bags from the car. We ended up carrying our bags to the room ourselves since no one offered to help, not even from the front desk. Front desk girl and lady: no greetings, seemed a bit indifferent/cold about us checking-in--we didn't feel welcomed at all. We booked a deluxe room (supposedly big enough for up to three guests accordingly to the booking site) with a nice view of the Valley of the Temples to celebrate our milestone wedding anniversary; however, we were given a smaller room big enough only for two without a view. Yet there was no explanations as if we would not know the difference. I understand that hotels sometimes over-book rooms, and rooms have to be shuffled. We didn't bring this matter up with the front desk since it was just for one night stay. Nonetheless, it left us with a bad impression of the hotel. If the hotel claims to be five stars, the service provided at the property should also be at that caliber; unfortunately it wasn't. Pros: another front desk man who was very friendly. And the cleaning staff does an excellent job--the whole property is very clean.
