"Breakfast was very excellent. Location is great but your room will most likely be looking out on a side street not the Mediterranean. Rooms are spacious. If you're driving a car there is a safe public parking garage about a 5-minute walk from hotel, otherwise the parking will cost $30/night, and believe me when I say you will not need to drive your car in Ortigia, nor would you want to."

10/10 Excellent
"We stayed here for a few days whilst we were getting married nearby. The staff couldn’t have been more attentive from the minute we arrived with recommendations and helping arrange logistics. Fabio at the pool deck was fantastic and made us feel so looked after. Cannot rate highly enough. Stunning location and views to top it off!"
"We had such an amazing stay!
The location is absolutely perfect right on the sea, and the location for breakfast is absolutely stunning.
The breakfast is delicious and the coffee is amazing.
All the staff are so friendly and made our stay very personable and memorable.
I hope to come back it is the best hotel in Ortigia!"
"The hotel has an excellent location in the city - near the shore - and also near to many restaurants and shops. Our room was spacious and clean. The area leading to our room was very pretty with colorful flowers nearby."
