FAQs about hotels in Syracuse

The Very Best of Greece and Rome

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.

What Guests Said About Syracuse:

Scored out of 10, guest rating 4.0

Syracusa and Ortigia are in fairly poor condition.

Syracusa and Ortigia are in fairly poor condition. The houses were once magnificent, but many have fallen into disrepair and are now in a very rough state. If you are looking for a picturesque destination, give these a miss. Ok destination for a day or two visit. Ortigia is better, but Syracusa is ugly.

I only had two days in Syracuse, yet it was enough to feel its pulse. Ortigia is wonderful - its narrow streets, the fish market and the main market, and a perfect little place right at the very start of the market by the waterfront, ideal for a simple, honest meal. Maniace Castle is absolutely worth the visit, especially for the views opening onto the Mediterranean Sea. The Neapolis archaeological park is striking, and Caravaggio is mesmerizing. Stone squares polished by time and by travelers’ shoes, cats warming themselves on car hoods, the raw, slightly frayed Sicilian edges mixed with moments of elegance and flair - all of it blends into a true Sicilian spritzer: a little rough, a little fancy, and deeply unforgettable.

Siracusa and Ortigia, where we stayed, are dream...

Siracusa and Ortigia, where we stayed, are dream destinations for any visitor, with narrow streets, old and pitoresc houses. Siracusa is a captivating coastal city where ancient history meets Mediterranean charm. Once one of the most powerful cities of the Greek world, it is famed for its archaeological treasures, including the Greek Theatre and Roman amphitheater. The historic island of Ortigia enchants visitors with baroque architecture, narrow stone streets, seaside promenades, and lively piazzas. With its rich past, clear blue waters, and excellent Sicilian cuisine, Siracusa offers a timeless and authentic Italian experience.

Syracusa is fascinating.

Syracusa is fascinating. Ancient civilizations have left their mark everywhere. Ortigia is very nice. Go there! I'd have spent at least another day or two since there is lots to see in and around the city. So, history, great food, lovely architecture, natural beauty...much more. just go!

My wife and I loved Syracuse for its history, architecture, variety of restaurants and fresh food. The locals are friendly and there is much to see and do. Syracuse is a great location for day trips to neighboring towns by train or bus including UNESCO World Heritage sites, Noto, Modica and Ragusa. We ended up staying longer in Syracuse than first planned.

Siracusa is certainly worth visiting.

Siracusa is certainly worth visiting. The Ortigia peninsula is very cute, a bit too touristy in certain spots, but worth the visit. The Neapolis Archeological Park is something else. It reminded me of Athens. If not for anything else, visit Siracusa because of this. Getting around is most comfortable by car. There are loads of restaurants with amazing selection of fish and seafood, as well as traditional Sicilian dishes.

This is a spacious facility in a very good location, an easy walk into Ortigia and to local restaurants and shops - and to the best ice cream shop we experienced in Sicily! Everything was clean and modern. We had a great welcome from Martin who was always somewhere around for friendly chat and helpful advice.

The property exudes an amazing charm, meticulously maintained with period features, grand public spaces, and beautifully refurbished rooms. Lovely details such as piano music on the veranda, a nicely smelling lobby, and above all, the best working Wi-Fi among all hotels we have been to in Sicily!

Our apartment was as nice as it looked in the photos and was easily one of the best places we stayed at in Sicily. Ivana was a wonderful host who was very helpful. When we're back in Ortigia, we will plan to return to Stay in Ortigia.

Very close to the center of Syracuse (10 minute walk). Clean and nicely decorated room with private bathroom. Breakfast was literally the best in Sicily! Salami, cheese, butter toast, croissant, cooked eggs, coffee, tea, etc.

Lovely apartment, very clean, with easy self check-in service, 15 minutes walk from Ortigia island. Special praise goes to by far the most comfortable beds we slept on during our trip to Sicily.
