Residence la Gancia

Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful!! Location is very near the the sea. Strongly recommend to ppl who are visiting Trapani!!

We were two couples travelling thru Sicily for three weeks, we spent four nights here in a junior suite on the third floor with a sea view. Although it was generally quiet, the mornings were noisy as we could hear the movement of the chairs from the breakfast room above our room – there was no sleeping in. Before arriving we were provided with detailed driving directions and had no difficulty finding the hotel. We lucked in and were able to finding parking along the sea wall, next to the hotel during our stay. We used EasyPark which worked like a charm and parking was very affordable. The entrance door is located about 100ft from the intersection of the Plaza Mercato del Pesce. Check-in was a breeze and a brief explanation of the amenities was provided, and we were informed that the building was once a monastery. As one cannot drink the water, we were provided with two bottles of water daily along with two coffee pods. Anything extra must be paid for. Breakfast was served on the 4th floor in an enclosed area. The seating area is not large but most guests do not linger over their meal. The selection was good and plentiful ranging from pastries to bacon and eggs. The rooms were very well appointed, large and the furnishing modern. Our sleeps were tranquil and we were usually laud to sleep to the sound of the crashing waves outside. There was plenty of storage space. Although there is a small kitchenette I do not know how one would prepare meals as mothing beyond a few plates and cutlery was provided. The hotel is small with only 20 rooms and I believe that there is a building next door where one can rent apartments. The hotel is well located to visit all the sites in Trapani and the ferry terminal is a short 10 minute walk away. If you plan to visit Favignana, book your seat early as the sailings we wanted to take was sold out three days running. Suggest that you also book your return portion at the same time. Also, when the cruise ships come in, the historical area becomes very crowded. There are also numerous restaurants nearby, along with wine bars. Lastly, walking the streets at night was a delight.

Andrea ran out to our car when we pulled over in a small paved area honoring the first fish market in Trapani. He quickly got our bags out and showed my husband the way to a parking lot that's convenient and cheap -- if you have the Easy Park app on your phone. We checked in quickly and set out to explore Trapani. Andrea and the front desk staff advised us on restaurants and gave us directions for driving up to Erice. Best Part: Breakfast on the roof terrace. Cakes and pastries, cheeses and meats, cappuccino to order. The room, also, was modern, clean, and usable.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay. We stayed in a junior suite with partial sea view. Was spacious, small table for eating, many windows and French door windows facing the ocean. Was clean and quiet. Front desk staff were very helpful in planning excursions, restaurants etc. Breakfast was lovely, served on terrace inside or outside depending upon weather. Breakfast staff were great and very attentive to your wishes. Location is right next to the pedestrian zone of Tripani with many restaurants within easy walk. Couldn’t have been better.

Wonderful choice in historic area right next to the Mediterranean Sea. Staff were wonderful - professional, cheerful and attentive! We had a junior suite with sea view. Very spacious and lovely view of the sea. Breakfast room and terrace were delightful. Highly recommend this property!

It was delightful staying at Residence La Gancia. The rooms were fantastic. They were extremely comfortable and very quiet. The breakfast was wonderful. Customer service was excellent. You could not ask for a more central location. I would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful hotel in walking distance on restaurants and sights. Staff was excellent.

Good location in Trapani, big parking was available only few hundred meters away, so we always found a spot. Breakfast was good served on the top floor terrace with nice view over the sea. There is a beach near the hotel, but we did not use it. The shower door leaked and made water of the floor. The hotel reception was very good, friendly, helped us with lots of information on the parking and tips about visiting Erice.

This was our last stop on a 13 night drive around the island and we could not have been happier. Because we were low season and the price was reasonable we booked the junior suite with sea view the on the 4th floor. It was amazing and had lovely windows and two patios! Breakfast is served on the 4th floor as well and it is lovely. The hotel is perfectly located. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. We left our car for two nights in the Piazza Vittorio Emanuele Parking lot and it cost only 4.90e. Be sure to download and use the EasyPark app. It was an easy 10 minute walk to the hotel. We really enjoyed Trapani and highly recommend this hotel.
