Perfect location with amazing views!
First of all, the staff is super friendly and helpful. They really make you feel at home, especially Davide. The room was big with an amazing view of the ocean from my balcony. I will definitely come back and also recommend it to friends and family.

We stayed here for one night and Davide was incredibly kind and helpful. He insisted on carrying our suitcases to our room, gave us a list of local places to see and even gave us bikes so we could tour the city. Our room had a wonderful view of the sea as well.

Dreaming place, with ocean views, excellent staff, beautiful and clean. Very good breakfast.
Don’t go to ortigia with car because there are no parking but if that’s the case, the staff will help you to find private parking.
Definitely will come back :)

Location was great, waterfront although our room didn’t have water views. Room was fine just needs some TLC.

This place is more like a B&B. Location is excellent, on water and walkable to everything. It is an old convent converted to B&B, there are no elevators. If you are not in an ocean view room then it is just an ordinary experience. We had the view and it was amazing.

We had the most amazing time at this hotel in beautiful Ortigia. We cannot thank Cinzia and Davide enough for their wonderful hospitality and welcome during our 3 night stay. We consider them our dear friends now. The hotel is beautiful and our lovely room was large with a gorgeous sea view and balcony. Grazie mille!!!

This place is a dream! The location, the views and especially the people. The staff were all so nice and friendly. Such an accomodating hotel. We had a water view and could not get enough of the beauty that surrounded us. The hotel is beautiful. Beds perfect. and They cleaned the rooms daily. Would definitely return some day (from the USA)

Just a great location with a balcony with incredible sea views! We loved the place! Staff kind and helpful and they went out of their way to help us! No elevator but the staff brought our bags up to the room. So nice! No parking on site, but they have a nearby parking garage staff come and get the car and park it for you. This does cost an extra €20/night but well worth it. We didn’t opt for their €13 breakfast buffet but instead found a great breakfast cafe just down the street recommended by the staff. We were able to swim near the hotel off the sea wall. Water was warm and very clear! Overall a great experience for us!! We would stay there again for sure!!

Hotel was overall very tired, bathroom requres update, toilet seat cheap and wobbled, shower didnt drain properly so showering had to be quick. Kettle had no near socket and had to be plugged into light socket and handle became hot, TV didnt work. Terrace nothing like the picture as most furniture old and broken. Gym not available but some very old pieces of gym equipment were available which we used but doubt it met safety standards. Such a shame as the location was fantastic and the staff were great and really helpful. The entire hotel requires an internal facelift
