excellent location and superb service

ideal locationfriendly staffdaily activities

i found the hotel very well-located near ortigia and the train station. it was easy to walk to restaurants! the hotel hosted daily activities that i participated in. the bathroom had older tiles, but the room was quite nice overall. the staff were very friendly. they offered assistance at the reception desk and in the dining area.

the room faced the street. this made it quite noisy from both inside and outside.
