Residence La Gancia  

On Trapani's seafront on Sicily's north coast, a restored 4-star residence sits steps from the port and nearby beaches. Centrally located — about 1 km from the city center — it's within easy walking distance of Palazzo Senatorio, Church of Sant'Agostino and Cathedral of San Lorenzo.

A brilliant restoration of a former guest house, La Gancia blends traditional Sicilian mosaics and majolica tiles with modern touches. The 20 individually decorated, air-conditioned rooms offer private bathrooms, kitchenettes or small kitchens, flat-screen TVs and many sea-view rooms; a rooftop solarium and garden terrace look over the ancient city and gulf.

Standouts include a panoramic roof garden/solarium, a fitness center, a bar and an on-site cafe/restaurant, plus limited-hour room service. Practical perks cover complimentary Wi‑Fi, parking zone, laundry and dry cleaning, car rental assistance and an airport shuttle available for a surcharge—wake up to sea-breeze mornings from sea-view rooms.

Business-friendly features include a computer station, complimentary newspapers, luggage storage and multilingual staff; a roundtrip airport shuttle is available on request (surcharge). Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected throughout the residence.

On-site restaurant, bar/lounge and cafe serve meals and snacks, with buffet breakfast available daily (fee) from 7:30–9:30 and limited room service. The location is a perfect launchpad for sampling Trapani's seafood and Sicilian flavors nearby.
