We loved our stay.
The apartment is exquisite, and right in the middle of an historic, fun neighborhood.
It’s on a corner of two pedestrian streets, and although it’s busy, it’s quiet with the windows closed.
We would definitely stay there again.
So many restaurants and cool shops and street vendors.
Don’t miss the Fish House Art Gallery a block away. And we loved the boat ride around the island.
We had a delightful stay in Ortigia. The apartment was luxurious. Spotless. Right in the heart of things. Mimi was an amazing host. Extremely helpful and very responsive. Thank you Mimi.
Lovely apartment! The location couldn’t have been better for walking out the door and being the middle of walking streets. This is an old building but the owner has updated the interior. The beds are ok, a bit hard if you are use to soft beds. There are 15 stairs up. The kitchen has pots and pans, a nice coffee maker but note NO forks or knives.
This is a perfect apartment for travelers. It is ideally located off the main piazza in Ortigia, convenient to walking everywhere in Ortigia and close to pick up points for Taxi and Uber to explore Syracuse. The apartment is clean, bathrooms modern and each room opens to the streets below for morning coffee or enjoying the sounds of the city. The host arranged a lock-box for us because we weren't sure when we would arrive and it worked perfectly. The beds were comfortable with temperature control in each room. We didn't have to walk more than a block to find great food and warm friendly hosts. One of our favorites is right under the apartment.
The location was central making exploring easy but one of the bedrooms over looked the main street and was noisy. There was no hot water until early evening which was a big problem and then it had gone by 10pm.
Gorgeous apartment in the middle of lovely Ortigia
This is a very nicely appointed apartment situated in the middle of the tourist area of Ortigia. That said, it wasn't too loud with the windows closed.
The apartment is great. Up one flight of steps and you're there. The two bedrooms are beautiful, each with a large bathroom. The kitchen/living area is where we hung out.
We had two small issues - a blown fuse and no hot water - which were easily fixed with a phone call to the host (though the hot water heater has quite a small tank. If you're 4 people showering at the same time, take short showers!!).
Overall, we loved it and hope to be back one day.
Super super location in the heart of everything. great host, great communication, easy to book. If you don’t look into this two bedroom two bath apartment you’re missing out. Will return.!!
What a superb apartment - tasteful decor, spacious, located in excellent spot, and great communication with host. Host was super helpful with parking arrangements, suggestions for activities and aided us when we needed a later checkout when a family member was not feeling well. We loved this place!
This is a lovely apartment in the heart of Ortigia. We were met by the Property Manager who helped us to find the local parking garage and showed us the property and gave us some local recommendations. The common area is quite small but perfect for friends travelling together as the bedrooms are on each side of the common area so it gives you privacy. We were there on a holiday weekend so it was a little noisy but I would definitely book again.
This apt is exactly as pictured in the photographs, and the location could not be more perfect. Just to know, one bedroom is quiet, but you do hear noises from the street in the second bedroom. But the apt is beautiful as is Ortigia, so who cares!
The rental agent was also wonderful. Very welcoming, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions.
I do hope to return, so I hope this great review does not mean the apt will not be available next year for me!

Great location, perfect apartment layout. Two very independent bedrooms with bathrooms
Literally 20 steps from Piazza Archimede and about 50 steps from the Duomo. We walked everywhere. Great Restaurants, Ice cream stores, cafes... everything.
It gets a little noisy at night. It was ok with us. I could have given 5 stars if the WiFi stopped working the night before leaving and one of the AC started leaking. I’m sure they fixed everything right after we left. Overall a great place and I recommend it.
My husband and I so enjoyed our stay in Ortegia. Thanks to this wonderful apartment in the middle of a charming area with two balconies to enjoy the hum of passersby’s on a pedestrian only street.
(it does get to be a little bit noisy as it is a pedestrian street, but unlike other cities, it quiets down at a reasonable hour of the evening. )
The apartment was very comfortable with 2 large bedrooms, comfortable kitchen/ living area and… 2 unbelievable showers!!!
Everything was within walking distance to restaurants, coffee shops, patisseries, and an amazing Duomo in the impressive city square.
We ate at the little restaurant under us called “A Putia di Gingio” where we happened to chat with two other couples near us from other countries. We became fast friends and met up with them the next few days.
I cannot say enough of how wonderful this apartment, Ortegia, and its people are.
We will definitely come back soon.
The unit is located in a pedestrian only area. Once we met up with Emilia, she walked us to the apartment and then walked with us to where we had left the car and showed us where to find parking for our car. She was also available to answer our questions.
One caution to light sleepers. This unit is in a very active pedestrian area. At night, there was music playing and plenty of street noise that could be heard from the one bedroom.
The one other issue was the mold growing on the walls and ceiling above the shower in the one bedroom. These are 12-15 foot ceilings but anyone sensitive to mold may have a problem.
Despite these issues, we had a great time in Ortigia.
This was a phenomenal flat in a perfect location. Excellent host very helpful
I stayed alone but was traveling with friends - this flat was located perfectly for all my needs - I would stay again without hesitation.
The host was one of the best I’ve ever had
Loved the apartment! Nice decor. Clean & comfy. Emilia was 10/10 on all questions and gave great food recommendations. The only drawback was that because of the pigeon droppings, we couldn’t sit out on the balconies.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
The property was centrally located and close to everything in Ortigia. The street below the apartment is awash with dining options. During the day, the street noise is relatively low, but it can be quite noisy at night....as late as 3:00 AM. The apartment is very large and well decorated...quite comfortable. The only negative is the lack of water hot enough to clean dished without supplementing it with boiling water from the kettle. The host was very communicative and was able to help us if needed. We would highly recommend this apartment.
Live like a local! You can't get a better location. Entertaining street theatre viewing from the two balconies, super high ceilings, fully stocked kitchen, oversized bathrooms, and a wonderful property manager. One of the best places we've stayed. Sad to leave.
