Very Good

Hotel is clean and updated in the old city. Location is conveniently located to sites, restaurants, and shopping, The street entrance is on a narrow side street which you can have a taxi take you to the property. But it is very secure, safe and quiet with a nice breakfast buffet.
Hotel is dated as should be expected being in the old city. Location is conveniently located to sites, restaurants, and shopping, The street entrance is on a narrow side street which does allow auto traffic, so you will need pull luggage @ 50 ft. from main street. But it is very secure, safe and quiet with a nice breakfast buffet.

Lovely accommodation with a patio and in a great location. The breakfast was included in our stay and offered a variety of items to choose from, it was the best breakfast we had on our month long stay in Sicily. Highly recommend!
A great location with shopping and restaurants within easy walking distance. This location is close to a grocery store. The room was comfortable and the hotel staff was very helpful.
Well managing the logistics of arrival when driving a car, good job in coordinating in advance the parking and valet service. The breakfast was very good and the location of the place superb
We booked a “Superior” room as it cost only a few extra Euros/night but ended up with a standard room (smaller and zero view).
They gave us a discount on departure but make sure you get the Superior if you book Superior. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Convenient location in Ortigia. Room was average size for the location and price. Included breakfast was typical. Sheets and pillowcase were stained, but were changed the next day. Wifi didn't work for most of our stay.

Air conditioning not working, no bar, no Room service, no restaurant as advertised
Quite in helpful
Morning breakfast staff lovely though
Nice stay in this beautiful hotel. Wonderful room with painted ceiling. Good breakfeast but we did not feel welcome to it (have to ask for forks, spoon, and seem to bother when asking). The hotel location is very good, not in the overcrowded parts of Ortigia, but at walking distance of everything. The team can send your car plate to the police to authorize access to ZTL to drop off luggages.
Some people went back to their room late in the night and made lot of noise in the corridors.

The location was very good and the staff was helpful. Our ground-floor room had a nice little courtyard. Unfortunately, the shower was very slippery and had mold in the grout. I don't think the floors were swept while we were there; probably something that should be done when guests are out walking the town every day. We didn't get to see the rooms in the main part of the hotel, so can't comment on them.
