“Housed in a renovated 19th-century building, the hotel distinguishes itself with a dedication to personalized, local experiences. I noticed the family-run restaurant prioritizes authentic Sicilian dishes, and the staff readily shares recommendations for exploring Ortigia, Syracuse's historic heart. Valet parking is a definite advantage given the area's bustle, while inside, a cozy atmosphere and a sweet buffet at breakfast round out the stay.”
