Do not, I repeat, do not pay the city tax in cash to Barbara. She is at the front desk and when we arrived she asked for us to pay right away the city tax (6 euros) in cash only. When we checked out there was no register of this transaction. The lady at the front desk called her and she denied to have received it. I sincerely hope the owner of this hotel read this and pay more attention to Barbara’s behavior towards their customers. The hotel is very noisy at night. We heard some other clients complaining about the noise downstairs on Friday and Saturday night as well. The lady in charge of the breakfast room is nice and polite.

Dreary dirty dated scary place …worse bed I’ve see

The place is horrible. If it had been cheap I wouldn’t complain but it was a $150/night stay. I left the hotel after finding a beautiful brand new boutique hotel 3 blocks away for the same price. The entrance is dirty and scary. You have to ring a bell to be let in and take a dirty dated elevator where the lobby is. The only person working there greets you. He didn’t speak English or Spanish. The bathroom is the best feature. It looked recently renovated. But the bed had a noisy and hard mattress. It was impossible to make the AC work decently…in the Sicilian heat of August! The air coming out was hard to feel. The hallways, the room itself…everything was old and smelly. The paid breakfast was a ticket to go to a bar across the street and get coffee plus a sweet or a salty think (according to the English of the reception person) I threw my money making the reservation. I left and booked another hotel.

Beware Hotel is Located above a Disco

Le Muse hotel is located above a disco and four restaurant bars. The disco was directly under our room and the noise deafening until 3 am on the Friday when we checked in. I made reservations for four nights for two rooms but after a completely sleepless night we checked out of the hotel. Street noise is one thing with cars and motor cycles but disco music blasting and 300 people below in the street screaming and shouting until 3 am is impossible! Expedia should be watching out for their customers. We stayed one night and we were willing to pay for one night for two rooms even though we were unable to sleep, but because Expedia did not intervene on our behalf we were stuck paying for four nights in a hotel that was too noisy to sleep in. The hotel offered to move us into new rooms on Sunday but they could not guarantee us quiet. The hotel said they would work Expedia but they lied to us.

Very clean, well-located

Le Muse is ideally located for sightseeing, just a few blocks from the bridge over to Ortigia, with all the things one wants to see, the high-end shops, great restaurants, and the weekend evening people-watching. The hotel is well-maintained and if cleanliness is next to godliness, this is holy ground! The walls may be a bit thin (we could hear the neighbors sometimes, but it didn't really disturb us). Staff was very helpful and friendly.

1 zakje douchegel/shampoo per persoon. Kamer naast de ontbijt zaal veel geluid. Ramen niet goed geïsoleerd dus je hoort heel de nacht en dag auto’s en motors. Personeel niet vriendelijk komen de kamer meerdere keren in zonder reden. Kamer niet schoongemaakt bij 2 nachten slapen. Airco valt steeds uit en word niet heel koud. Nieuwe handdoeken moesten we om vragen bij de receptie omdat de kamer niet opgeruimd was dus alle oude handdoeken opgespaard in de kamer. Er is nog veel meer om op te noemen. Ik heb geen goede ervaring gehad en ik zou het niemand aanraden

Hôtel le muse.

Hôtel proche de l’ile D’ortigia à pied. Mais attention pas de parking réservé pour l’hotel. Accueil réception parfait - mais manque de diversité pour le petit déjeuner. Hôtel bruyant car la rue est très passante de jour comme de nuit - réserver à l’arrière de l’hôtel.

Struttura assolutamente priva di manutenzione dei servizi interni delle camere, soprattutto quelli idraulici sono pessimi, WC con tavoletta rotta, doccia otturata, incompleto cambio degli asciugamani, materassi orribili spacca schiena, rumore insopportabile dall'esterno. Colazione discreta, comunque varia ed abbondante. Come aspetto positivo molto importante c'è la comodissima vicinanza con l'isola di Ortigia di Siracusa. Difficoltà massima di parcheggio gratuito ma vicinissimo ad uno pubblico a pagamento.
