This boutique hotel, elegantly laid out around a 16th-century cloister, has been beautifully updated on the interior while still preserving the stone architectural details that identify it as a historic site. Pale wood and stucco walls create a surprisingly bright atmosphere in the common areas despite a lack of natural light. As with the rest of the town of Trapani, water from the faucet is non-potable. Some guests have noted that walls may be thin and the rooms near the elevator shaft and breakfast room may experience some extra noise. This hotel is a little pricier than local luxury competitors, but many feel that its historic setting and views make it worthwhile.

Il Cortile Fiorito is a quaint value hotel made up of seven clean, colorful apartments in the center of Trapani, less than 100 yards from the ocean. A good fit for guests who want to do their own cooking, some of the rooms have kitchenettes equipped with ovens and refrigerators, and there is a grocery store within walking distance. For those staying in rooms without kitchens, several restaurants are nearby including the popular Calvino 1946 Pizzeria. The similarly priced Casa Vacanze Fardella Centrale doesn’t have the rustic appeal, but offers more modern rooms. Rooms at Il Cortile are up-to-date with flat-screen TVs and Wi-Fi (for a fee) but decor is a bit bland.

This tiny bed-and-breakfast -- which is run by a couple -- consists of two rooms only. Both are spacious and have a homey vibe. The property is situated slightly outside the center of Trapani; it is located about a 20-minute walk from the old town, and is near plenty of restaurants and supermarkets. Guests have made a point to say that while the location is not as ideal as some, the owners will readily provide transportation with advance notice. A great draw of the hotel is the lovely backyard garden and the adjacent terrace, on which a homemade breakfast that draws frequent rave reviews is served daily at no extra charge.
