“The hotel stands out for its unusual setting in a former convent and the tranquil rooftop terrace offering striking sea views; plus, it's steps from Ortigia's attractions. The on-site wellness center is a considerable perk, as is the abundant breakfast that showcases local flavors. I'd recommend this for travelers seeking character and calm in a prime Syracuse location.”
