HOTEL REVIEWS

USA, Sep 2008
This is a great B & B! The staff is particularly friendly and accomodating; the breakfast was terrific, with meats, cheeses, yogurt, fruit and, wonder of wonders, whole grain rolls! Our double room with a small balcony was very pleasant and the facility has a wonderful location on Ortigia right across the street from the harbor. I would always stay on Ortigia, as Siracusa is not that appealing, except for the Archaelogical Park.

Exccellent location near the historic centre of Siracuse and close to water. Parking slightly difficult but plenty of options. Hotel is slightly expensive for this type of accomodation but makes up for it in quality and style. Staff couldn't be nicer and more helpful.

This is a wonderful B&B. The location couldn't be better, the island of Ortigia is a lovely spot and just a short walk from Siracusa town. The room we had, with a ceiling window, was absolutely first class and very clean. The breakfast was by far the best we had in the whole week we spent in Sicily and the breakfast room/terrace is a delightful place to start the day. The employees were courteous, very helpful and pleasant at all times. FIRST CLASS!

A great place to stay in the heart of Ortigia (Siracuse), walking distance to all major attractions, beautifully located in the seafront. Both owner and staff are very welcoming and go out of their way to make your stay pleasent. The breakfast terrace is wonderful.

One of our fondest memories on a 3 week trip. Ortigia is a low key, friendly, comfortable place, a real walking town, don't miss the open air markets most mornings. We were treated very well at the B&B and would definatley go back, and we are telling all our friends about it. It was easy to find and very well located.

Where do we start! We came here on honeymoon and were given a warm welcome and a special touch of a hart and 'WELCOME' written on the bed in potpourri! The rooms were clean, comfortable, bright and spacious, and much nicer than any of the photos we've seen online. The sun-drenched terrace where we enjoyed an enormous breakfast every morning and several evenings with a bottle of wine was surpassed only by Ortigia's beautiful surroundings. Everyone at the B&B were extremely friendly and helpful, contributing to a fantastic stay. If we ever return to Siracusa, we would not consider staying anywhere else!

This is a lovely B&B at a unique sight. We loved watching the fishing boats pull into the channel, and we loved the rooftop terrace. This accommodation offered the best breakfast compared to the other B&B's in which we stayed.

I am amored as to the staff and their services offered. We were treated as family I felt and provided with more than expected service. My complements to this facility and it staff. Our breakfast was more than expected and one evening, I asked for some wine and cheese to sit out on the balacony and enjoy the sunset and presto it was provided! This facility understands "customer service". Job well done.

Little expensive, but worth it. Breakfast in the roof garden was very pleasant. Ortygia is very romantic. I really enjoyed to sit near the french balcony drinking red wine and watching fishermen unloading their boat.

Very expensive but worth the money. You have to consider to be in the heart of the town what has a price, The house is very quiet, sophisticated and worth the money. However, cheap is something else.

Parking anywhere near this hotel was a BIG problem. Most of the nearby streets are a tow-away zone and what free space there is is always full. Otherwise the hotel is very nice, breakfast is excellent and the staff charming and hospitable.

Great place to stay. Just make sure you get a room with a window, rather than skylight

We were graciously welcomed by the handsome young Federico and shown our large, light and spotless room with its small balcony overlooking the harbour (it had been exaggeratedly described as a "sea view"). There was some activity outside below; it was quiet at night except for a fishing boat going and coming in the small hours. The hotel felt more like a hacienda or modern pensione, as Federico lives with his mother just across the passageway, available, their door ajar, after the desk closes for the evening. A breakfast cornucopia awaited us each morning on the terrace, and Federico recommended local restarants and advised us about our day trip to Mount Etna.

I have no hesitation in recommending this bed and breakfast accommodation. Rooms are simply furnished and decorated in a modern style. Rooms facing the sea are better. Breakfast was the best we had whilst touring Sicily. The location in Ortigia is ideal for visiting the city.

This is the best B&B we@ve ever stayed in. Excellent service and beautiful room but the real high spot was breakfast on the roof terrace. Choice of fresh fruit from a large platter, fresh bread and pastries with excellent coffee. Couldn't be better. Easy access to the old city and plenty of opportunties to wander each evening.

More towel racks in bathrooms, and hooks for robes, etc., behind bathroom doors. Also an additional wastebasket by the desk and reading lamps on the desks. Other than that, this was a real find in Siracuse. Our corner room off the lobby had a wonderful view of part of the harbor. And other than visiting the archeological zone, one should never leave Ortigia...it's so beautiful and small...like a souk in many ways. Good food, shops, tons of atmosphere!

Very modern and well-equipped room, but the number of staff is limited and sometimes it is difficult to catch them to get enough information. A view from breakfast terrace is brilliant.

We stayed in some 4 star hotels on our visit to Sicily but this bed and breakfast was by far the best, would definitly stay again on another trip. The breakfast on the roof terrace was superb, pity we had to leave.

It was very nice, most of alle the small terrace where I could get my breakfast without any other than a nice view. The prices are a bit high, but it is worth it.

First, your website prepared me quite well. You describe yourselves well. Second, you run a lovely esptablishment, and you do it well. Everything was excellent quality. I highly recommend your place, and should I ever return to Siracusa, I will stay with you.

No information about the important event of the day. We missed two fireworks. Only information given : the adress of a restaurant and the "suspect" proposition to reserve at once for the evening.
