Absolutely fabulous property! Great location, immaculate and well designed…quiet…comfy beds, amazing breakfast. So comfortable..a lovely place on every level.
Perfect location to explore Ortigia by foot. We were able to park our car in a parking garage that was a five minute walk away from the hotel. Room was clean and comfortable. Breakfast was nice with good variety of cold options.. I would recommend staying here while visiting Ortigia
Hotel is in a beautifully restored convent. Our room was large and airy and had air conditioning. The roof terrace was wonderful to sit in and admire the view of the sea. Staff were so welcoming and helpful.
2 nights stay and 2 rooms for family. The hotel is infront of Ortigia beach , 5mins to parking house, near the sentrum. The hotel is clean, cozy and has a church. The employees are nice and giving us a good service.
It’s an older building, which is to be expected of course. The space (bathroom & bedroom) were really nice and sizable compared to many European rooms we’ve encountered. It’s just due for a bit of an update in my opinion, but I would happily stay there again. Great location and nice value!
This property is beautiful. It used to be a convent. The room and bathrooms were spacious. It’s a short walk to piazzas, markets, restaurants. Parking is down the street for E20. There is an rooftop area that overlooks the water. I would definitely stay here again.
Very very Nice Hotel, OK breakfast, easy to find. My room was small but the AC and wi-fi was great. Close to ”cliff beach”, easy to go and Have a evening swim. 5-10 min to everything. The whole staff is great !!!! Big shout out to the reception staff and cleaning staff. If Im

Nice B&B
If you are looking for a hotel with all facilities you may be disappointed. This is a nice B&B - no bar or restaurant. The rooms have sea view through a small window, but no balcony. "Sun Terrace"is in the shade from 2.30pm. Great location on the island, and lovely walks around Syracuse.
We spent 2 nights in beautiful walkable Ortigia. The hotel was lovely, but difficult to reach by car because of heavy traffic when we arrived. Parking was 15-20 Euro per day, and City occupancy tax was 5 Euro per person per night. Breakfast (13 Euro per person) had to be paid cash. Aside from these unexpected charges it was great! The pool was nice.
My husband & I stayed 2 nights in mid-May 2025. We loved this historic and fascinating B&B within a current convent (yes, we saw the nuns!). Comfortable 2nd floor room that opened onto a quiet, shared, shaded terrace. There’s also a ln upper terrace with seattle & sea views. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Note: wifi was very unreliable. We parked our rental car at the Talete garage about 10 minutes walk, for €15 per 24 hrs. Overall, this was a great location for us in Ortigia.

Good Location but Tired
Location was great but there is no parking. There is a parking lot in front of hotel but good luck getting a spot as locals park there. We ended up parking in public lot and walked to hotel - about 10 minutes. Thought the room was small with one tiny window covered in heavy curtains so “sea view” was disappointing. The terrace is nice but it was too hot to use in August. Overall, thought the hotel was tired in desperate need of freshening.

The room had a small window but the sea view was wonderful. The hotel was well located within walking distance of the main sites and near several good restaurants and bars. The breakfast room was a very nicely decorated and comfortable space with a good range of food served. There were several seating areas and of course the large church within the premises. Unfortunately the bedroom and bathroom had an unpleasant and worrying smell especially the bathroom and perhaps we should have asked to be moved to another room. The supply of toiletries was small and limited and the bar of soap was removed on the second day although it had hardly been used. Luckily there was another bar of soap available but it seemed wasteful.
We loved the window in the room overlooking the sea and listening to the waves crashing. Room was ready when we checked in early. Great convenient location and friendly staff. Free bikes for guests’ use was an added bonus that we loved.
