Location and Proximity

The villa sits on a manmade cliff that was once a quarry in ancient Greek times, along the edge of Syracuse's famed archaeological sites. The hotel is 65 km from Fontanarossa. Landmarks nearby include Monument to Syracuse Fallen in Africa - 0.3 km, Foro Siracusano - 1.5 km, Archaeological Park of Neapolis - 2 km, Porto Piccolo - 1.5 km, Fountain of Arethusa - 2 km, Ear of Dionysius - 2 km, Teatro Greco - 2 km, Museo Archeologico Regionale Paolo Orsi - 1 km. Most dining and top attractions are on the island of Ortigia, just over ten minutes by car away. A public bus to Ortigia passes in front of the hotel.

“Set within ancient Sicilian quarries, this grand hotel offers a unique historical ambiance. The distance to the main attractions might be a consideration, but free parking and the draw of the island's largest outdoor pool offer their own appeal. I particularly appreciate the regular happy hour events-a nice touch after a day of exploring Syracuse.”
