"When planning our visit to Corleone and the anti mafiamuseum CIDMA we read about this old restored trainstation which now houses this hotel/restaurant. Ficuzza is nearby Corleone so can easily be combined in one visit. Beautiful drive from Palermo to the inlands of Sicily. When entering the small village we found the route along a forestall leading strait to the entrance of hotel and restaurant. There is a large free parking spot. The building itself has been entirely restored as can be seen on large pictures on displays. This gives an insight as how the old building looked before and after. Inside the building there are signs to remember to the translation's function, like costumes, hats and so on. Staff are dressed in style and on the hot and warm day we were welcomed to have a table outside. We picked one of the tables, situated in front of the entrance under a parasol. Very peaceful surrounding and not much people at lunchtime. Though a wedding party was going on in the garden on the other side of the building. As we went inside we happened to stumble upon a large splendidly decorated room for the wedding banquet and party to take place later on. You could see that they take great care in every detail and styling. We only wanted one course instead of the usual italian 3 course Pranzo because we were running out of time. Otherwise we would have certainly chosen more different plates. We had pasta's which were really very delicious. And just had enough time to enjoy a dessert ; . The desserts were very nicely styled on the plates and were very good. Prices are reasonable for the high quality food that we enjoyed here. It was a pity to leave again in just 1 hour, but certainly was worth the visit. Recommended when you are in the neighborhood or on your way to Corleone."
