A great apartment location in an historic building overlooking the sea front in Ortigia. The room was clean and the bathroom very tastefully done. The apartment is only 10 minutes walk from the historic heart of Ortygia and a fantastic selection of restaurants, bars and cafes.

Santi was a wonderful host, very warm and friendly and extremely knowledgeable (and proud) about the art, history, archeology and culture of Syracuse and Sicily. He is also the proud owner of a very original 50 year old Vespa scooter. He made us very welcome and helped us to find the best locations to see in Ortygia. We still have a lot to see in Syracuse and hope to return soon, and would happily stay with Santi again. Like all old cities there is mainly resident only parking, but there are some visitor spaces if you look carefully, and plenty of cheap pay and display car parks.
