Questions about the venue
What's included in the venue rental?+

How many guests can the venue accommodate?+
San Giorgio Modica can host between 20 and 150 guests depending on room configuration and event format. Exact capacity varies by choosing indoor salon spaces versus courtyard arrangements.
What's nearby for guest activities?+
Modica's baroque town center is walking distance, featuring historic churches, piazzas, and restaurants. The Val di Noto region offers wineries, beaches near Ragusa Ibla, and archaeological sites within 30-60 minutes by car.
Are there wedding planning services available?+
The hotel staff can coordinate logistics as in-house operator. For design, florals, and specialized services, you'll need to engage external vendors, though the hotel can provide referrals to established local suppliers.
What accessibility does the palazzo offer?+
As a restored 18th-century building, accessibility is limited. Stairs are present in main areas. Discuss specific mobility needs directly with management before booking to assess feasible room assignments.
