The property was incorrectly advertised eg photos of outlook, balcony, pillow menu. The internet rarely worked. When we made staff aware they'd go and turn on and then it would not work a short time later. The matresses in the economy room need replacing. They had dips in middle. When we complained we were told to go somewhere else. Our room was half the size if my friends who paid the same amount on the site. Overall really disappointed and did not sleep properly during our stay.

Disliked: Room comfort

At least the reception girls are very nice.

The hotel is old without a proper elevator, it uses an old storage very slow lift. But it doesn't get you on the top floor, you have to walk the last floor. The surrounding area is a third world area, dirty, chaotic, with no parking spaces. The room was big with a funny barred enclosed balcony that looks nowhere.

Well located but mixed service

Well situated midway between Archeological Park and Orteiga. Service very mixed, mainly we guessed, because some staff had not been trained. Various advertised amenities didn't happen e.g. room not available as advertised, no promised free parking, empty minibar, no coffee on first morning. Reasonably good value if advertised amenities are delivered.

See Syracuse

Old hotel with friendly staff. Splendidly ancient and rickety (hydraulic) lift. No reserved parking so that can be a problem. Kettle provided but no coffee/tea so take your own!

Close to all tourist spots, very helpful staff

Reserved parking in front of the door, easy access to/from the autostrada and tourist spots in Ortygia and Syracuse. The staff was able to book ferry tickets from Catania to Naples when our flight was unexpectedly cancelled with no alternate flights available and no travel agency open. The wifi is strongest in the lobby. The room and breakfast are good. Good value for money.

I spent a pleasant week here.

Family-style. Walking distance to the long-distance bus station & the railway station. About 6 city blocks from the start of the old town & from the Greek theatre uphill in the opposite direction. Antiquated elevator, but only two flights of stairs to the top. Nice room, recently redecorated.

Good place to stay

This hotel is located between the old part and new part of town but not in either one of them. The neighborhood IMMIDEATELY around the hotel is sort of a no-man's land. But of you walk for 3 minutes in one direction or ten minutes in then ther there is plenty to see and do. Some of the rooms are wonderful. Some need work. The service is fantastic.

Hotel Between Ortygia and the Archeological Park

The English-speaking receptionist oriented us with a map and directions to the major archeological sites and to Ortygia, with some restaurant recommendations. Everything was walkable because the hotel is between these two areas.

Nice and cozy hotel, not far from the major sights

Not sure why the rating for this hotel is kind of low ... for me it was a wonderful experience! The room I had was facing South-West, so it was filled with light and sun warmth in the afternoon. Also, the entire design of the room, in pale/earth colours, was so cozy, that it was a pleasure spending my time there! The room was quite big, there was enough space to spread out the suitcases and still have room to walk around. The breakfast had both sweet stuff (croissants, jams, cakes, and so on), but also meats, cheeses, boiled eggs. So that gave the day a good start, for the daily sightseeing activities. The hotel is well signposted starting from the railway station, and easy and quick to reach from there. Also, the side where my room was, was facing the city police building - Polizia Municipale, so that added an extra comfort as far as safety is concerned. When I arrived there on the first day, I did not even have to ask for a map and the main sights, I was given it together with the room keys! And finally, the wi-fi - important for me - was very reliable (maybe there were few moments some days when there was some short reconnection, but other than that I was able to use it as I needed.) I would stay again at this hotel any time stay, for me it was a very good experience.

Convenient for station and the island of Ortigia

We spent 3 nights in this hotel and were very pleased with our choice. The room was spotless and the bed comfortable. The only slight problem was the sliding door of the shower. The breakfast was adequate and the location perfect. The staff were very friendly and we would use the hotel again.

Comfortable hotel, just a short walk from Ortigia

This hotel is just a short walk from the bus and train stations (less than 10 minutes) and is also very near the Ortigia island, where the historic old town lies. The hotel is very comfortable with all you could want for breakfast. Rooms are spotlessly clean and the staff are friendly and helpful. I have nothing but good to say about the hotel and would certainly stay there again. Whilst at the hotel, we took the Montalbano Tour and it was well worth it. It is possible to walk to the Greek and Roman amphitheatres from the hotel, and I would recommend this trip to anyone staying in Syracuse. All in all, a good break.

Cozy small hotel, nicely priced

This a friendly small hotel, a 10 - 15 walk from the main touristic island of Ortigia. The breakfast could be improved, but they did serve fresh cappucino. Wi-fi did not reach our room on the top floor, but there were two cozy lounges just above reception, and we were able to sit and connect there. Rooms were simple but reasonably comfortable. A good value for the price we paid. Availability of parking was also a plus (we visited in January).
