Modica, Ragusa, or Noto?
My wife and I will be spending one night in one of these cities (en route from Agrigento to Syracusa). I have found what looks to be a very nice hotel in Modica, but my wife seems to prefer the idea of staying in Noto. Any advice?

We visited Noto briefly on our way to Modica from Ortigia and spent an afternoon in Ragusa Ibla. I'd spend my one night at the Casa Talía with its terrific view of Modica Alta and the cathedral. Here's the link to my trip report: http://www.fodors.com/community/euro...ecial-trip.cfm.

Although sure they've all something to offer, we've only been to Noto - twice - and I'd go there, if only for a sight of the amazingly reconstructed duomo...

Just wish we'd been able to see it all finished and lit up at night!

I saw it on one of the first days after the scaffolding came down - wonderful! And SO spectacular when lit at night! I hope you get to see it that way some day, Peter!
