The sea view dining was a unique delight.

A taste of Sicily 🇮🇹

The brekkie was so lekker! Fresh pastries, local cheeses, and you could even help yourself to the coffee—none of that waiting around nonsense. And the staff were just so warm and friendly, giving us the lowdown on the best spots to check out in town. That sea view from our room? Absolute bliss!

Only bummer was the parking, which was a bit of a faf during peak times. Just plan ahead, ja?

Charming atmosphere with quirky decor and local touches.

The soundproofing of the room was inadequate, and I could hear voices in the hallway, which disrupted my peace. the lack of change at the front desk became frustrating when I needed it to make purchases. The breakfast service was lovely, but not having enough seating during rush hours made it a struggle to find a place to enjoy my meal peacefully.

The unique rooftop terrace and the charming boho-chic decor made my stay nice. I adored my room's small courtyard, perfect for relaxing.

Great vibes and breakfast!

Spent 2 nights here and really enjoyed it. The breakfast spread was delicious, especially the local cheeses and fresh pastries. The staff were super friendly, giving nice tips on what to see around. Just wish the room had better soundproofing. a bit noisy at times. The charm of the place makes up for it!

The sea view from my room was stunning, but the heating system was a joke.

the room was tired and the bathroom, let’s not even go there, definitely needs cleaning. imagine my absolute shock when I didn’t even get a big towel after they took the second person’s towels away! I thought for sure I'd at least get an upgrade, but no, just mediocrity. I almost considered a good review but just couldn’t.

The breakfast was fantastic with a good selection of local options, including fresh pastries and local honey that you can't miss. The quirky decor with antique touches gives the place a character that's hard to find elsewhere.

Parking is a complete circus. despite claims of availability, I ended up with a ticket after just a few minutes in a recommended spot. The rooms, although charming, are in need of maintenance with issues from broken fixtures to tired-looking furnishings. Soundproofing is poor, making it hard to escape the noise from the hallways, and the bathrooms had a cleanliness issue that shouldn't be overlooked. I also found the Wi-Fi connection unreliable, which made it a bit tricky trying to stay connected. it feels like there's potential here that hasn’t been fully realized.

The charming atmosphere of Gutkowski captivates with its quirky decor and beautifully styled rooms. Breakfast was a delightful spread of local organic products, including fresh fruits, “pasta” pastries and homemade jams. The location is fantastic, allowing easy exploration of the vibrant Ortigia area with its stunning sea views.

Challenging parking situation.

The sea view from our room was stunning, and waking up to watch the sunrise was a treat! We enjoyed chilling on the sun terrace, sipping local wine while taking in the breeze. The only small issue was that the room doors weren’t super soundproof, so a bit of noise came from the hallway now and then, but it didn’t ruin our vibe at all. Just make sure to explore the nearby attractions for a full experience! 🌅

the hotel is super beautiful and the staff were friendly and helpful for sure. we had dinner there and it was amazin, best quality food with local ingredients. our waiter explained every dish and the sicilian wine was on point. comfy bed too and well located to explore the town.

the parking situation was kinda tricky and the room smelled too perfumey for my liking.

Charming spot with a lovely breakfast

I had a wonderful stay at this charming hotel in Ortigia, where I enjoyed delightful breakfasts featuring fresh fruits and a variety of local specialties. The room was nicely styled and clean, providing a cozy atmosphere to unwind after a day of exploring. The staff were exceptionally helpful, offering great recommendations for nearby attractions. parking can be a bit of a challenge during peak hours, so plan accordingly.

This was an ideal choice for a short visit in Syracuse with the best value. The coffee they served was surprisingly great and fresh each morning. Make sure to double-check your room amenities before settling in.
