A goldmine of Greek and Roman heritage, Siracusa is a UNESCO World Heritage Site together with the Necropolis of Pantalica in hills to the north-west.
Siracusa itself has a necropolis within the amazing Neapolis archaeological park, which also houses Roman amphitheatre and altar remains, as well as one of the largest Greek theatres ever built. Legend has it that the site includes the tomb of Archimedes, who was born here.
The ancient Greeks founded the city (also known as Syracuse) and Cicero even considered it the greatest of all. Columns from that period were used to build the Baroque cathedral, and the Fountain of Arethusa dates to the same era. Both are within Ortygia, a walled peninsula jutting into the turquoise Mediterranean Sea. Also here are ruins of the Roman temple of Apollo, and at the tip of the peninsula is the 13th-century Maniace Castle.
The fabulous Siracusa Archaeological Museum houses relics from all these periods, and is located by the Catacombs of Saint John. Opposite them both is the modern conical spire of the Madonna delle Lacrime Sanctuary church.
Aside from all this history, Siracusa also has plenty of pavement cafes and restaurants, and lovely sandy beaches overlooked by luxury hotels, cheap B&Bs and holiday homes available on Booking.com.

The streets are charming especially on Ortigia but the sights and museums fall short of other cities, including Palermo and Taormina on Sicily and far short of Florence or Sienna on the mainland. Still, having visited all those other places Syracuse was a pleasant place to spend a couple of days. The main archeological site (overly hyped and ruined by a theatre development) and associated museum are far from Ortigia, which means a long hike or waiting for the tiny red minibus 105 if you can find the stop just over the bridge from Ortigia. Seeing the one Caravaggio in Santa Lucia was another hike across the mainland. On Ortigia, the castle was only OK; the Mikveh looked interesting from outside but we hadn't booked the guided tour. The market was excellent (buy some almond biscuits for 12 euros a kilo!) and close to the impressive Temple of Apollo. We ate well (lots of seafood) but missed out on a really good looking restaurant for lack of a reservation. The coach ride from Catania airport was cheap and functional but the taxi touts at the terminal were sharks, I'm afraid.

Very nice town. We had fun walking around.
Very nice town. We had fun walking around. Beautiful to walk around at night time. Felt safe there. La Fustella was a great leather goods store and everything was made on site. Prices were very good. We also found some paintings on parchment paper at Galleria Bellomo. There is great street food and beautiful sea views.

Lots to see and explore both in the main town eg museums, churches & the archeological park then on Ortigia where history abounds. Plenty of little restaurants to be found up narrow alleyways on Ortigia which are well-lit and have a good atmosphere. Lots of walking required but mostly level with only a few slopes down - & of course back up! - towards the shore but lots of little shops, some touristy but others more interesting like ceramics to distract you. Great views from the shoreline or promenade that runs round the headland so lovey sunsets to view. Felt very safe & people helpful if you need directions. Food-wise - if you like fish, you'll be in heaven plus the usual Italian pasta & pizza plus tasting the Caponnata is a must. Gluten free, vegetarian & vegan folks are catered for to an extent - apps and guidebooks are handy to find places. Without rushing or going to the beach we arrived on Monday and left on Fri and that was plenty of time to see everthing we wanted. Enjoy!

Ortigia Island is a beautiful place, lots of great architecture, very clean. Interesting sites to see and many boat trips available to take you around the island. There are other places of interest in Siracusa and public transport to take you other parts of Sicily. Many places to eat and if you don't mind walking other sites outside of Ortigia Island are within 30/40 minutes walking.

Visiting the archeological park is very nice, I recommend going early in the morning (8.30AM) before big tourist groups start arriving.
Ortigia is also a great place to go: besides sightseeing objects, I particularly recommend via Cavour with lovely small artisan shops.
A Putia near Fontana di Diana seemed to be a small diner appreciated both by locals and tourists. Good food, reasonable prices, ok service.

Ortigia is amazing, so much great food, and lovely to walk around. There isn't more than a day's worth of sight-seeing on the island, plus the Archaeological sites in Siracusa, but it is an excellent home base for day trips around south-east Sicily. And perfect for a relaxing holiday - coffee and a pastry in front of the duomo, a walk around the island and a little shopping (mostly touristy stuff unfortunately), and a gelato looking out over the water on the promenade. Very friendly people, lovely architecture and history around every corner, fantastic restaurants, and even in February, SUN!
Truly one of the best apartments I have ever rented on booking. Pietro and Loredana are so hospitable, kind, and thoughtful. The setting in Ortigia is so unique- an ancient apartment with modern touches, close to the water, and the apartment is somehow incredibly temperate (even though it is so hot outside in the summer). Sitting in the courtyard, I could hear distant church singing every evening.
I am so grateful I got to stay here. I felt more comfortable here than anywhere else in Sicily.
Lovely hosts. Excellent breakfast and views from breakfast on roof. Great location. The arranged parking was great, although we did'nt dare drive again in Ortigia unril we had to leave. The hostess also clued me in to the fact that Caravaggio's "Burial of St Lucy [Santa Lucia]" is NOT in the church of Santa Lucia in Piazza Duomo, Ortigia, but in the chuch of Santa Lucia in mainland Syracuse. Otherwise, I might have thought the painting was simply not available for viewing and missed it.
We absolutely loved this place! Probably the best we've had in 10 days of our Sicily tour!! The location is right in the center of Isola Ortigia, in a historical building, yet new, modern, 5-star facility, owned and run by Martina and her colleague Nastassia.
So beautiful, so clean, so fresh, full of light, amazing and rich fresh breakfast..
The parking valet was arranged in advance and worked very well.
Will definitely plan to return to Maeco B&B! Thank you Martina, thank you Nastassia :)
Enzo Is an exceptional host! He went the extra mile to make sure that my stay went extremely well in many aspects. The apartment is large, and I enjoyed the balcony off of the bedroom as well as the sitting area outside the door. The air conditioning was working very well in the extreme temperatures at the time I was in Syracuse. There is a bus stop only 6 minutes away that goes to Catania airport (Syracuse Corso Gelone 52). It was about a 20 minute walk to the Ortigia Bridge for me.
The apartment is lovely. Compact but it has everything you need and the decor is nice, particularly the exposed stone walls. For a couple, it was perfect.
The location is a ten minute walk from Ortigia, and in a quiet area of the city. We hired a car for the week and were always able to find space to park on the street or an adjacent street.
Valentina was an amazing host. Incredibly friendly and helpful, giving us plenty of tips and recommendations for our time in Sicily.
* Spacious, comfy apartment
* Friendly and helpful hosts Lea & Luca. They didn't have guests before us and they let us check in earlier. We were very grateful.
* Comfy huge bed with good memory foam pillow
* Well equipped kitchen if your want to cook on your own
* Location. Quiet place with plenty of bars around, short walk to Ortigia. 6 minutes from the bus station (direct connection with Catania airport)
* Private terrace
Highly recommended place to stay in Syracuse
Charming Hotel with an excellent location in the heart of Ortigia. Angelo was very welcoming and helpful not just with the hotel issues but even with information about the place and he even arranged a boat excursion for us. Breakfast was super good with a lot of variety (way more than what to expect from a 3 start hotel in Sicily)! Rooms where very clean and spacious. Would definitely re-stay in this hotel if visiting Siracusa again! Highly recommended!
it’s a great location for a stay in Syracuse, easy to access Ortigia on foot and park the car. Also it is on the hop on hop bus
off route which makes a quick connection to the archeological sites in Syracuse.
Highlights of the stay, the view, the accommodation all very nice finishes, comfortable bed and good pillows. Usage of washer machine was a great bonus . Very accommodating and helpful hosts.
The apartment was just beautiful with stunning views. Waking up every morning to sunrise over the ocean was special. We squeezed on the balcony in the kitchen to eat our breakfast watching Ortigia wake up. Elisa was a great host checking in on us. Well equipped with lots of thoughtful touches. It's situation is perfect for walking around Ortigia and Syracuse. We miss it!
It was walkable to Ortigia Island and had free parking. The hostess was there the following morning and was very helpful and fluent in English, and provided us several brochures for various places in Sicily that we were planning to visit. It was an apartment with kitchen, dining, living area along with bedroom and bath. Gated courtyard was pretty.
My stay in Ortigia was one of the high points for me during the three weeks in recently spent in Sicily, The owner Alberto was very helpful and most accommodating in all ways and his house keeper Anita was wonderfully helpful and really made my stay very pleasant and memorable. I would highly recommend Residenza del Reginale in Ortigia.
The people working there, free parking in front of the hotel and breakfast was amazing!!
The room we got was outdated, but it was very big. it was on the ground floor, so no windows except the doors, which is typical in Sicily. Overall, good stay for a quick night, fulling breakfast :)
Fantastic apartment in the heart of Ortigia. Outstanding interior design. One of the highlights on our trip to Sicily. Brilliant host. We rate the apartment, living experience and host 12/10.
The location is fantastic, with incredible ocean views and building views. Balcony was lovely. Walking distance to everything you need. The hotel provided the old-time charm we wanted when staying in Sicily. Breakfast was great, good coffee and lovely food 10/10.
Great location, the room was really comfortable, and the breakfast (with a view on the sea) excellent ! Great hosts, who gave us a lot of advice on things to do in Syracuse and in Sicily in general! Would return there without a doubt for our next time there.
Excellent location if you’re planning on visiting both the archaeological park in Syracuse and the island of Ortigia. It’s about halfway in between so it’s only about a 10 to 15 minute walk to everything. Very comfortable rooms.
Great location to Ortigia. Parking nearby. Our best breakfast in Sicily. Family owned and extremely friendly and would come back here again. The room was great and the bath was beautiful - all new.
Great location
Lino was superb, very helpful.
It's nice to stay in an apartment where the host cares about the culture and hospitality.
Videos, books and decor from Sicily .
Very refreshing.
