This hotel was absolutely amazing. The location was perfectly walkable to Ortigia while still having access to ample parking options. The rooms were big, impeccably clean, and comfortable. Most importantly, Francesco was soo friendly and helpful. He went above and beyond to make our stay as good as it could possibly be. He had great recommendations not only for Syracuse, but for all of Sicily. We would go back just to stay here!!!

We had a lovely stay on our honeymoon at Forteleza Charme House. Our room was spotless and decorated so beautifully. It felt practically brand new! We had a nice terrace with a gorgeous view of the harbor. The hotel is very centrally located within walking distance of everything. We were taken great care of by Francesco who is so kind and hospitable. He helped us in many ways throughout our stay and gave us wonderful recommendations for local restaurants. I cannot recommend Forteleza Charme House more highly!! Thank you so much, Francesco!

Wunderschönes Hotel

Eine der schönsten Unterkünfte bis jetzt in Italien. Neu renoviertes Gebäude und Zimmer. Wunderschön und zentral gelegen. Etwas laut da direkt an einer Strasse, aber ganz ok und nachts beruhigt sich der Verkehr in den Strasse von Siracusa.
