Q92 Noto Hotel
Aristocratic Sicilian palazzo energy with a contemporary Italian art edge. The main salone has deep red walls, cool blue drapes, a Venetian chandelier, and classical sculptures alongside original artworks. Each of the 10 rooms is different — artwork ranges from Renaissance to contemporary, furniture is bespoke leather and wood, and bathrooms are lined with Italian majolica tiles. Quiet, intimate, genuinely personal hospitality.
Classic Rooms have no direct views — just high windows for light. Upgrade at minimum to a Superior for street or courtyard glimpses; go straight to a Master Suite for Cathedral views.
Why It Matters
Best address in Noto, full stop. It's the only property on Corso Vittorio Emanuele of this caliber, and the Cathedral view from the terrace — especially at sunset — is the real deal. The Quartucci family's track record (Hotel Villa Ducale and Hotel Villa Carlotta are two of the best boutique hotels in Sicily) gives Q92 serious credibility, and the staff hospitality is consistently exceptional.
Q92 sits inside a 1696 palazzo right on Noto's main pedestrian drag, Corso Vittorio Emanuele — directly across from the legendary Caffè Sicilia and with Cathedral views from the terrace. The Quartucci family (who also run Hotel Villa Ducale and Hotel Villa Carlotta in Taormina) opened it in 2021 and applied their same philosophy: 10 individually designed rooms that feel like a private aristocratic home rather than a hotel, all managed by a hands-on team that people rave about by name.
Where You'll Stay
6 room types available
Classic Room
The entry-level category. Flexible as a double or twin configuration, two high windows flood the room with light but don't give a direct street or monument view. Simple, well-appointed, and comfortable — the right choice if you're mostly out exploring and just need a beautiful place to sleep.
Double or Twin · 17 sqm
Deluxe Room
Sits between the Superior Rooms and the Junior Suites in terms of size and positioning. Individually designed with bespoke furniture and the property's characteristic mix of classical and contemporary artwork. Full en-suite facilities with majolica tilework.
King
Junior Suite
Two Junior Suites, each a generous 46 sqm. Views face either the lush garden or the interior courtyard — peaceful rather than panoramic. King beds, bespoke furniture, and walk-in showers lined with Italian majolica. A sofa bed can accommodate a third guest if needed.
King · 46 sqmQ92 Master
Three Master Suites, each unique and ranging from 50 to 68 sqm. One showcases original Baroque fresco fragments, one looks directly onto Noto Cathedral, and one was once the bedroom of a noble family — complete with a white stone wall and balcony. Large private balconies, luxurious walk-in showers, wooden details, and Italian majolica tilework throughout. These are the rooms guests remember for years.
King · 59 sqmQ92 Mini Suite
The hotel describes this as capturing the essence of Q92 — understated elegance, full comfort, and a large bathroom. Private balcony with sweeping views over the city's rooftops. Bathroom is finished in white Italian majolica with vibrant wood panels and a walk-in shower. A step down from the Master in size but not in character.
KingSuperior Room
Two of these in the hotel. King beds, warm tones, breezy linens — 22 to 30 sqm of romantic comfort. Windows open onto either the historic courtyard or Corso Vittorio Emanuele with glimpses of the Church of San Carlo. En-suite bathrooms are lined with Sicilian majolica tiles and have walk-in showers.
