Hotel Sopra le Mura is located in Castellammare del Golfo, in the north-western part of the island, with about the same distance from Trapani and Palermo and from their two airports. Discover unique places, landscapes that leave you in awe and special people who make hospitality their lifestyle.
Sicily is perfect all year round with summer that lasts five months on average. Why not treat yourself to a holiday to places that enchant tourists from all over the world. Our land offers natural and architectural spots of beauty, alternating between the rural villages that seem to have stopped in time to the dynamic and modern cities. A place of relaxation, sea and beaches, full of culture and above all, good cuisine and wines of great taste and character.
Castellammare del Golfo and its surroundings are perfect for romantic weekends for couples, as well as for the family, where the protagonists are children. Even a business trip can turn into a pleasant opportunity to get to know the true essence of this part of Sicily. Rely on the suggestions made by our staff of Hotel Sopra le Mura, who will only be glad to help you organize your excursions in the province of Trapani or Palermo.
During your stay in our boutique hotel, we suggest you take the time to live the best experiences selected for you: from trekking through the Zingaro reserve, to the tasting of cous-cous in San Vito Lo Capo; from an archaeological walk through the sites of Segesta and Selinunte and to the tasting of the best wines from the cellars of Marsala.
The pastel-coloured sunsets overlooking the salt pans of Trapani, diving from the stacks of Scopello, the scent of orange blossom and jasmine on summer evenings and the intense flavour of cannoli in our best pastry shops are experiences, atmospheres and emotions to share and remember, in a nutshell, Sicily!
