Location,location, location. Friendly staff Breakfast on the terrace.

A luxury hotel right in the heart Syracuse with parking.

The hotel is a charming historical boutique hotel overlooking the Ortigia harbor. A perfect location for exploring the island. The rooms are lovely and well appointed. We experienced two rooms. The inner courtyard rooms are a bit small especially if you are traveling with much luggage. The partial sea view was perfect. The sea view rooms were booked. We had a look and they are spectacular. Breakfast in the rooftop restaurant and terrace was exceptional. Besides the delicious buffet we ordered off a menu of numerous eggs dishes. Dinner in the restaurant on our last night was memorable at sunset. The rooms are immaculately clean and the staff is friendly and courteous. Returning in the evening there were fresh towels in the bathroom and cookies on our pillows. We will definitely return.

I loved the location of the hotel--it was fairly easy to drive to and the hotel parking was just across the street from the hotel, plus it was near to many good restaurants and sights. The restaurant and the terrace bar provided a view of the city, and was a nice setting for an end of the day drink and breakfast the next morning. The room was clean and comfortable, if a bit small, but was fine for one person. Staff was friendly and helpful, especially for getting my heavy bag up and down the steps at the entry to the hotel.

Location for walking to all historical places was Top, and parking area directly in front of it, and good service, for example to arrange Covid-Test on short term.

Excellent location. Great breakfast, with a view, from the terrace, on the city and the sea. Had a great massage at the Spa.

Location and rooms were excellent. The breakfast is outstanding also. Great view.

Loved it. Great location. They tidy the room after you go roaming. Come back and everything is perfect!

Breakfast was lovely and the rooftop view was beautiful. It was a little frustrating to have to pay for parking but the hotel was very accommodating and I did not feel like just another random tourist. The stay was lovely regardless and the location was perfect. We had a two floor room that was honestly a bit awkward in layout but overall a good stay. The bed was also VERY comfortable and the bathroom amenities were lovely.

Perfectly located on the water. The staff is beyond helpful with everything from booking us a lido to making all our reservations and holding luggage. We had a wonderful experience!
