I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were perfect for relaxing pre-dinner drinks on the veranda, and the bedrooms were super comfortable despite being a bit small. The service was top-notch, full of historical charm, and they even arranged a gluten-free breakfast for one of our group. The location was a mix of old glamour and convenience, close to key attractions and with free parking right down to the ocean. The dining experience was sumptuous and varied, offering a great start to the day with delicious coffee and pastries.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel. The rooms were nice, clean, and the air conditioning worked well, making it the perfect place to relax. However, the 'balcony' was poor. The service was accommodating and pleasant, although the property could use some maintenance. The location was good, away from the hustle and bustle, but a bit far from the center. The dining experience was really great with a variety of food options. The facilities were well-kept.

My stay at the hotel was a bit of a mixed bag. The rooms were a bit strange with uncomfortable chairs and huge tables, but they had a lovely balcony to enjoy. The service was a bit rude regarding a bottle of water, but overall helpful and the facilities were comfortable. The location was a bit out of the way for walking, but the atmosphere was exotic. The dining experience was poor with limited options, and the hotel seemed a bit generic despite fresh products.

The hotel had modern and smart rooms with a balcony overlooking the Mediterranean and the old town. However, the view was awful, and I had to ask multiple times for basic amenities like ice, tissues, and soap.

The location in the Latomie-ancient quarries-area of Syracuse was lovely, but there was lots of litter and a dead cat outside. The area was small and mainly occupied by police vans/cars. It was close enough to sites, but not the most pleasant surroundings.

The dining experience was good enough with a variety of fresh fruit and baked goods. However, there were limited options and not enough savory dishes.

I felt like I was in a movie when I entered the room with the perfect temperature thanks to the automatic air conditioning. The sea view overlooking the gardens and ancient quarry was breathtaking, and the room was spacious with a hydro bath offering a nice view. The hotel is a gem, but the limited dinner menu may not suit everyone's taste.

The staff seemed to strive to outdo each other in serving guests promptly and efficiently, offering a wide range of services to enjoy all that Syracuse and Ortigiana have to offer. However, the dinner menu was a bit of a letdown.

The hotel stands uniquely overlooking the famous ancient quarry in the Latomie ancient quarries area of Syracuse. Although not ideal if spending most time in the old town of Siracusa, the strategic position and top-notch service made up for it.

The breakfast selection was varied, but dinner was extremely disappointing with limited options not suitable for all tastes. The restaurant staff, though polite and professional, could improve the menu for a more satisfying dining experience.
