Maison Ortigia

Well run, clean, simple accommodation that is excellent value and in a superb location. Large rooms and comfortable beds. Parking for the drop off and when leaving was easy as you can park immediately outside for fifteen minutes. To access it: - ignore your sat nav and drive down the pedestrianised Via Roma (Max Mara is on the corner) - turn left into Via del Teatro - take the first right into the piazza and it's on the corner. Whistling the theme tune from The Italian Job is not compulsory, but it helps. We parked for free on the white lines around Riva Della Posta which took me about ten minutes to walk to.

It's rare that hotels have a good hair dryer - here it was powerful, it's a pleasure. Breakfast is small but sufficient, many different cakes and sweets. Warm boiled eggs:)))) The location is ideal for exploring the surroundings.

It was in a great location. Short walk to shops and restaurants

Stayed for two nights. Chose this hotel for the price\quality ratio. My room was on the 2nd floor. So the hotel is actually in the block of flats and it spreads on all floors variously, locals seem to live among it. The reception is on the 3rd floor starting at 8:30 in the morning (in case you would like to check out earlier than that like me). The room was modest, just a bed, table and wardrobe. The fast wifi. Hot water any time. Silence in the night. AC working well, I had to use it in the evening in the December for a while. I did not try breakfasts. Nice reception lady. Daily room service. Grocery store is ten minutes walking. I got basically what I wanted for sleepovers and exploring Ortigia.

Great, central location. Friendly, helpful staff. Comfy beds. Clean. The view from the terrace was great. Breakfast aplenty. Has an elevator! Provided me with a kettle on request. This was the second time this year that I stayed at this hotel, would stay again when returning to Ortigia. Has a pharmacy next door with helpful pharmacist too.
