The hotel is beautiful and the first night I was there I was in a really cool room with a loft. I left for a week and then came back and stayed another night. This time the room was underneath the restaurant and was super loud until well after 11 PM. But overall, it’s a lovely property and very well located.

Stunning hotel and area on the waterfront in Ortigia. Strongly recommend everything except the restaurant. Food was marginal for the price with much better options close by
