"The good: The staff is EXTREMELY helpful! They communicated very clearly through Expedia how parking worked, and that we needed a reservation with a garage 100m away. We also needed to register our car license plate with the city, as the hotel is in a controlled traffic area. The hotel managed the city registration and parking registration for us! Also, directions to the parking garage were perfect. Parking and driving in Ortigia can be challenging, but it's not nearly as difficult as in central Palermo, for example. The property is an older hotel with "classical" decor, but it's in really good shape. It's very close to the water in the Ortigia area of Syracusa, which is an historic, walkable area. Everything was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was good and equivalent in style to other hotels in Sicily. The bad: Not really bad, but weird? The staff brought up an oscillating fan with a misting feature to help cool the room. It seemed the hotel (and room) had central air, but I guess they don't turn on central air in April? Maybe they wait until summer. Anyway, the room got hot during the day, even with the fan, but we opened the windows at night and let the cool air in. Also, we asked for restaurant recommendations nearby, and it seems the staff doesn't eat out nearby that much. They did point us to one street and marked a few spots on a map, but couldn't remember the names. We did find an excellent restaurant (Scuola Alimentare) and wine bar (Evoe)."

"Right on the ocean near the ocean promenade."

"We stayed in room 362, a superior double. It was beautiful, very clean and spacious and the elegant bathroom had two doors - his and hers! The hotel was really quiet at night and we didn't hear a sound of any other guests. The public areas are impressive, a beautiful airy, cool lounge, with free tea and coffee in the afternoons. As other guests have said, the breakfast is excellent with a full menu of hot dishes plus the buffet, and, unlike so many hotels, there is always a table available for breakfast. Altogether, just about the best hotel I have ever stayed in - although also the most expensive! "

"Lovely sea view. Quiet pedestrian street. Very spacious"

"Great property but a good 20 minute walk to the Ortigia area. However, the property is worth the walk"
