This is a fabulous old style hotel brought up to date in a really good location for Ortigia. The rooftop restaurant and terrace have a beautiful view and breakfast has a very large choice and is very good. The staff are extremely attentive and all seem to have the freedom to chat to guests like human beings and not "5 star robots". A welcome change.

A wonderful hotel in a fantastic location on the waterfront and within easy walking of all major sites. The buffet breakfast was outstanding and included cooked to order items. The room was immaculate and tastefully furnished. The room staff worked hard and made it look as good as new each day. The front desk staff were also friendly and helpful.

Superb staff, Emanuel at front desk went above and beyond printing out maps and providing suggestions for day trips. Hotel and rooms are very dated and lack a cohesive look. Bathroom smelled of sewage and the entire hotel had the smell of grandma’s awful perfume. Rooms are small, location is superb and right on the water. Amazing views from the top floor restaurant. Wait staff fantastic and very attentive.
