The first room we checked into had ants. The replacement room did not have the view I paid additionally for Amenities sated included valet parking and an indoor pool. That was false, parking was self-service in a lot about 10 blocks away. Also state there was an indoor pool but failed to state the pool was part of a spa package for which a reservation and fee were required. I would have expected more honesty.

Ortigia hotel with spa hosted by nuns
We spent 2 nights in beautiful walkable Ortigia. The hotel was lovely, but difficult to reach by car because of heavy traffic when we arrived. Parking was 15-20 Euro per day, and City occupancy tax was 5 Euro per person per night. Breakfast (13 Euro per person) had to be paid cash. Aside from these unexpected charges it was great! The pool was nice.

It’s an older building, which is to be expected of course. The space (bathroom & bedroom) were really nice and sizable compared to many European rooms we’ve encountered. It’s just due for a bit of an update in my opinion, but I would happily stay there again. Great location and nice value!

Nice B&B
If you are looking for a hotel with all facilities you may be disappointed. This is a nice B&B - no bar or restaurant. The rooms have sea view through a small window, but no balcony. "Sun Terrace"is in the shade from 2.30pm. Great location on the island, and lovely walks around Syracuse.

This property is beautiful. It used to be a convent. The room and bathrooms were spacious. It’s a short walk to piazzas, markets, restaurants. Parking is down the street for E20. There is an rooftop area that overlooks the water. I would definitely stay here again.

Good Location but Tired
Location was great but there is no parking. There is a parking lot in front of hotel but good luck getting a spot as locals park there. We ended up parking in public lot and walked to hotel - about 10 minutes. Thought the room was small with one tiny window covered in heavy curtains so “sea view” was disappointing. The terrace is nice but it was too hot to use in August. Overall, thought the hotel was tired in desperate need of freshening.
