Beautiful property in Ortigia within a pedestrian zone. Rooms are large, with excellent bathroom products. Nice breakfast buffet with lots of choice. Staff are very accommodating. Just be aware if you are driving, even with the directions provided by the hotel, it can be confusing to locate it. The hotel will valet your car and then all is fine.

We spent a week in Italy and Sicily with multiple stops , this hotel was my favorite! Very charming , historic but perfectly remodeled building , close to everything. We used valet parking with the hotel, very smoothly operated and easy option. Our junior suite was the biggest and nicest during this trip, immaculately clean and well stacked. The staff were helpful and kind. The breakfast could have been a little better ( we tried both the buffet and Ala carte options in the family ) but overall a very satisfying visit!

A great hotel in an excellent location 100 metres from the Duomo square. Lots of restaurants and bars nearby and very safe and quiet. Breakfast can be inside or out in the square and has all the choices you would need. Concierge for our bags and staff to recommend and book for you. Taxis drop off out front.
