A great find

excellent room, location and staff!
Paul, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff excellent- friendly, polite, helpful. Fabulous location, right in the middle of Ortigia but hotel itself an oasis of calm. Family room very spacious and lovely. Breakfast buffet standard/good. Terrace bar nice to have but small with limited opening - still can’t believe they don’t know what a limoncello spritz is, when it’s so popular elsewhere - but tried hard to accommodate. In summary we were very very happy of our choice of hotel in Ortigia.
Clare, 2-night trip

Convenient and comfortable hotel in Ortigia

We will definitely stay in this property again. Very friendly and helpful staff! Good size suite. Has an elevator and 24 hours reception. We sleep well although situated at the tourist street; not noisy. Love the convenient; attractions and restaurants are just 1 -10 minutes away.
Pui Har Lavinia, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Stayed 3 nights here with 3 travel companions. We had a family room which was perfect. The building is beautiful and in the heart of Ortigia. The staff were amazing and so very helpful with directions, excursions, and information. The breakfast had many choices and the ladies were lovely. This was a great boutique hotel and I highly recommend it.

DAVID, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Staff was great, the room was charming and the breakfast was the best in Italy! There was street noise in the later evening as we were trying to sleep. We are not party people. The arrival and parking situation was unclear as this was our first Ortigia trip. I thought that we had arranged for someone to park our car. We had to walk our luggage in to the hotel with no where to park leaving someone with the car and police officers telling us we could not stay there then drive to a public parking and pay there. We needed help to find the hotel property and this took lots of texts.
Patricia, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

It’s was way beyond our satisfaction and our suite was the best by far. Excellent service and staff and beautiful breakfast too
sam, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The location was fantastic, in the heart of Ortigia with a secure front door and someone at the front desk 24 hours. The breakfast was fantastic, the rooms a great size and very comfortable but what really made this property stand out was the customer service - so friendly and helpful, would stay there again in a heartbeat!
Jeff, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Loved property, huge room in quiet yet convenient area.
Stacy, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This place is amazing and lives up to the exceptional reviews it gets. The room was huge by both European and American standards. It is right in the heart of Ortigia and convenient to everything. I suggest that you do not try and find a place to park. We used the valet parking place they suggested and we're glad we did. The people at the front desk were very helpful and the breakfast buffet was amazing. It is very safe, clean and the overall service was superb. I would definitely recommend this place and would certainly stay again.
