Find Historic Hotels in Ortygia

"This was the nicest place we stayed in Sicily. The staff was absolutely the friendliest and best. They gave us free complimentary breakfast each day. Make sure to ask for an ocean-view room with balcony - absolutely stunning vistas, and you can go out and swim in the crystal-clear warm blue waters or sun on the rocks. Hotel is in Ortigia, the trendy island that was ancient Syracuse, walking distance to wonderful restaurants, shops, outdoor cafes, gelato, and all the important archeological sites of Syracuse. This place was a gem! Parking was available nearby. One small warning: no elevator, and rooms are up two or three flights of stairs, but they carry luggage up stairs to you room for free. They also help with getting a shuttle or cab, tour reservations and recommendations. They even have free bicycles you can use to explore the city."

"Every traveller in the last 4 years or so will have noticed the insanely abusive increase in worldwide accomodation pricing often doubling or tripling what rooms cost 5 years ago. After 20 days of travel between turkey and sicily i would say this hotel was by far the greatest value for the money spent. Impeccably curated in every detail, elegant decoration. Comfortable rooms and cleanliness. The restaurant is great too. I would stay here again every time i return to Siracusa. Highly recommend. "

"Absolutely beautiful hotel! "

"Charming small hotel right on the water, extremely friendly and helpful staff. Sundowners on the patio overlooking the water was magical. All in all a great stay"

"The rooms are stunningly decorated, comfortable beds, great air conditioning, very clean. The common area are also breathtaking. The staff are also amizng and helped us book transportation and arranged a beach club day. This location is also close to all shopping and great dinning. The included breakfast was also great. "

"We did have a small challenge finding the hotel front door (hahaha). Once we got inside, the hotel is beautiful. It does have an elevator, which is great with luggage. We used the valet offsite parking, which was GREAT. The breakfast was delicious. We did a walking tour of Ortega from the hotel. Great food options around as well. Highly recommend the hotel."

"Great location. Friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast area with view. Nice room. I had a terrace with table and chairs. Wonderful"

"My husband & I stayed 2 nights in mid-May 2025. We loved this historic and fascinating B&B within a current convent (yes, we saw the nuns!). Comfortable 2nd floor room that opened onto a quiet, shared, shaded terrace. There’s also a ln upper terrace with seattle & sea views. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Note: wifi was very unreliable. We parked our rental car at the Talete garage about 10 minutes walk, for €15 per 24 hrs. Overall, this was a great location for us in Ortigia."

"Beautiful hotel right on the waterfront with parking (paid) just in front. Excellent service and breakfasts. Room elegant with high ceilings but would benefit from air conditioning for the summer months. Easy walking to seafront and around Ortigia. "
