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.

5 Star in Ortigia with a spa and safe easy parking

Location, location, location! Great location, many Americans staying here end of June, not why we booked, still very Italian hotel. Reception staff are professional and kind, upgraded one of our two triple rooms but we had booked sea view rooms and we did not receive this, we let it slide without mentioning. Breakfast was above average and the servers were outstanding, lovely view and fresh food, good coffee. We had drinks at the roof top bar one evening, great service but over priced drinks, paying for the view, expensive spritz is too much. The spa was wonderful, we had booked three Acqua express treatments and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience, very professional service in a charming venue, don’t miss the small museum next to the spa room with Ancient Greek ruins! Parking was the best, right across the street from the hotel, safe and easy, 15€ per day was economical for Ortigia. Our only mention is the bathroom had mold on the marble walls, just a small bit but I am allergic, though we kept the door closed and it was ok. The nightly cookie service was a treat, so try the almond bites! We will stay here again!

The staff was very helpful with all our needs. The food and views from the hotel roof were outstanding. Everyone was very friendly as well. However, the steps into the hotel were a challange for me as I have mobility issues. At least there were hand rails.

This is not a 5 star hotel. Since you walk in no one helps you with the bags, there is no hospitality and people are extremely rude and not helpful. The rooms smell like an old perfume store and it’s extremely noisy. Don’t make the same mistake i made! There are better options
