Staff were very friendly and helpful. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Sep 30, 2024 Liked: Room comfort Convenient location in Ortigia.

Wonderful room with painted ceiling. Good breakfeast but we did not feel welcome to it (have to ask for forks, spoon, and seem to bother when asking). The hotel location is very good, not in the overcrowded parts of Ortigia, but at walking distance of everything. The team can send your car plate to the police to authorize access to ZTL to drop off luggages. Some people went back to their room late in the night and made lot of noise in the corridors. ##### Bernard Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ken Oct 15, 2023 Liked: Staff & service The location was very good and the staff was helpful. Our ground-floor room had a nice little courtyard. Unfortunately, the shower was very slippery and had mold in the grout. I don't think the floors were swept while we were there; probably something that should be done when guests are out walking the town every day. We didn't get to see the rooms in the main part of the hotel, so can't comment on them. ##### Ken Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Paul Jan 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Charming Overall a charming and very welcoming little hotel. The breakfast was a simple but adequate one. No tea/coffee making facilities in the room was a bit unusual. Wi-Fi was very poor. Shower room was basic. That’s the main negatives dealt with. Overall, it’s a beautiful old building which is perfectly situated right in the middle of Ortigia. Everything is within easy walking distance (if you don’t lose your bearings!!) and given its rating as a three star hotel, it’s fair value for money. I expect we will return to Ortigia sometime and would be quite happy to make Hotel Gargallo our base once again. ##### Paul Stayed 10 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Kurt Oct 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Great location in the middle of Ortigia Island, but a little hard to find at first because the streets are confusing. You can drive right up to the entrance and drop your bags, even though it doesn’t look like a real street, then park in the lot for 15 euros per 24 hours. The ticket machine is old and hard to figure out….exact amount in cash only! The hotel staff is very nice, friendly, and helpful. Our superior room was on the ground floor, clean, and fairly spacious. The bed was comfortable and it was quiet at night. Furniture is a little run down and probably should be replaced, or is just the end of the season? Bath towels are great. Breakfast was typical with lots of choices, with great espresso made to order. Hard boiled eggs should have been fresher. We recommend this hotel. ##### Kurt Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Celyne Oct 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff accommodated our need for a quiet ground floor room (my husband sprained both ankles and had very limited mobility). Excellent breakfast and ideal location to explore the town by foot. We highly recommend this small hotel. If you are driving, know the hotel is on a narrow one way street, so you will need your GPS! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f080422a-7a4a-488f-a420-e537da2c2c88-1760344202582.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0d1c84e0-8d76-4744-8fe5-c6927abe8139-1760344384799.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Celyne Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Liam Aug 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location ##### Liam Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Marsha May 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent location ##### Marsha Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024
