The peaceful location and the stunning gardens . Also the seemingly effortless luxury.

Valerie, Ireland

The luxurious feel,the history of the hotel and the stupendous natural environment built on a grotto as well as the fabulously restored and maintained property.

Ioanna, Australia

When we pulled up to the Grand Hotel Villa Pollti I could not believe my eyes. The hotel is absolutely beautiful and fabulous. I think it would be very difficult to top the grand setting of the Grand Hotel Villa Politi. It is obvious that the hotel was once the Villa of an Empress. It shows.

Carol, United Kingdom

Room was clean with tiny balcony. Bathroom and towels clean. Bathroom was small as was shower unit and the shower head had green deposits. Bed comfortable. Evening meal of the day was very tasty and good value. Very good location with hop on hop off bus stopping just across the road.

Anne, United Kingdom

We were surprised by the Seaview from the balcony of the room 229.

Eileen, United States of America

Suddenly a very nice place to be with friends in Sicily. View inside and outside is extremely great, accommodation is very good too. Easy to drive in and park the car in hotel's own parking.

Denis, Germany

A truly fantastic location, just a short 10 minute stroll to the main downtown Siracusa. The hotel has a beautiful nostalgic feel best absorbed on an evening sat on the front terrace with a glass of your favourite drink. The staff were amazing without a doubt made the stay that much better always cheerful and keen to help. A big thanks to Francesco helped me and my other half out on several occasions, a member of staff who is a credit to the hotel. If you are looking for a base to explore this part of Sicily then look no further than Grand Hotel Villa Politi.

Kim, United Kingdom

The variety of food at breakfast, friendly staff. The surrounding of the hotel was amazing and very peaceful. Had a nice view from our little roof balcony.

“Elegant old world grandeur with beautiful views and excellent staff!”

눉- air conditioning was at times not strong enough in the bedrooms for the extreme temperatures - the bathroom was particularly prone to this problem. - the pool while beautiful could do with more of a shallow area for younger children. - the main restaurant is rather limited for children (unless they happen to be gastronomes!) so if they want to attract more families they would benefit from designing a children's menu.
눇Excellent service. Attentive friendly staff. Beautiful ambience at this old world elegant hotel. Beautiful bedrooms Excellent breakfast buffet! Gorgeous views from the Juliet balcony of bedroom!

눉Room was very small, view was awful and had to beg for ice, tissues and soap. Would have never guessed a four star hotel would skimp on such cheap items.
눇The hotel was beautiful the gardens were pleasant and relaxing. The breakfast which was included was wonderful, eggs, meat and delicious coffee and pastries. Happy hour was a great deal.

“Comfortable location and friendly staff”

눉The fact that we had to settle the bill in cash since we were told that the online payment was not active. We were informed of this on checking out and it would have entailed going to city centre to find an ATM had we not enough cash to settle the bill. Building walls from pool side need attention since it is showing cracks and patches of missing plaster. One had to use stairs to access the pool.
눇Staff polite and friendly; Location of hotel within a short distance of the city center ideal. Having private parking facilities excellent for travelers with their own car. Lovely pool area.

눉The building is really old and the rooms need a good refurbishment . The shower box was in horrible condition and the room was too small for the price payed. The description of the room reported a bath in the room but they have been unable to give me a room matching the description . Just showers.
눇Location and surrounding is just amazing and it's really close to the city centre.

눉The (extremely small) terrace had no seats or table to sit outside & the view of the fire escape wasn't great but that was a small negative
눇A very nice, 'olde worlde' hotel with a nice ambience & in a nice setting. The room was a little on the small side but spotlessly clean & the staff were all very friendly & helpful. The pool areas were lovely & definitely necessary as the temperatures climbed!

눇This was a beautiful grand building with a fascinating history. We liked the location, easy to drive to, parking on site and the hop on hop off bus for €5 per day just near the hotel. We used that to sight see the city and found it to be very convenient. Breakfast in the magnificent ballroom was delicious. The large pool and generous surrounds were very welcome at the end of a hot day sightseeing.

“Delightful room with lovely view to the sea. Lovely swimming pool.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Classic Double or Twin Room
- • Stayed 3 nights
눉By updating a couple of features of the decor (such as getting some funkier bright modern chairs in the bar and replacing the red chairs near the leaflet area by reception) the whole atmosphere could be lightened and be more welcoming for younger guests. I think the hotel should spend a bit painting the back of the hotel (white and light blue? to match the walls of the swimming pool sides which do look bright and cheerful) and possibly updating the curtains in the restaurant side area - the pink netting looks a bit old fashioned - but that's just one opinion.
눇Historic hotel. Charming room with lovely balcony and window shutters and a view over the front of the property across palm trees to the sea. Staff pleasant. Great value cocktail and nibbles in the Winston bar happy hour. The pool was wonderful and the water temperature perfect - the pool was the reason we booked the hotel. Breakfast good and the meal in the restaurant was of a high quality and not bad value. The seating area outside the reception underneath the pillars was a delight to sit in and have a cocktail before dinner.
