L'Approdo delle Sirene

It was obvious the hotel had recently put in lots of renovations. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, spoke great English, and provided excellent recommendations for dining and activities.

This was a lovely B&B in Ortigia. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. The breakfast was good. It was very convenient walking from the train station.

A lovely experience overall. Easy check-in, clean and comfortable room, well-equipped with extras like robes and slippers,a fridge with beverages. Breakfast had lots of variety, including gluten-free options, and was delicious. View from the breakfast room overlooked the water. Nothing to fault here. Would book again in a heartbeat.

My son and I had a lovely stay. The room was clean, the staff was very friendly. Great location that is within walking distance to popular tourist sites and restaurants. I recommend going upstairs onto the terrace for a great view of the harbor.

This is a wonderful, small B&B on Ortigia in Syracuse. We had a room with an upstairs, private terrace, amazing! Views of the harbor, cruise ships, sunset. Breakfast is also wonderful buffet on a terrace. One of the most surprising hidden gems of our whole European adventure.

Definitely a good deal for the money. Older building but decent. It appears they are trying to make improvements. Staff helpful. Breakfast really a great value! Definitely 3stars, but you can’t beat the price!

Perfectly located right at the edge of Ortigia, the bed and breakfast is a perfect base for those who want to discover both Siracusa and Ortigia. The hosts are absolutely lovely, they were very flexible during the pandemic about changing dates if and when available. Not all rooms come with seaview but the breakfast is served on a beautiful terrace which has both a covered and a non-covered area to enjoy the morning cappuccino.

I stayed in Syracuse for 4 nights for a conference that was held in Ortigia, the Island that is the older part of the city. Since I knew that I would be arriving late in the evening and that the bus from Catania airport would be leaving me off across the bridge, I looked for a place that was near the bridge, so that I would not have to wander the alleys of Ortigia at night to look for my hotel. So I reserved at L'Approdo delle Sirene, even though it was more expensive than other similar B&B's. I was not disappointed. When I contacted the hotel to inform them that I would be arriving after their reception desked closes at 8 pm, they send me detailed instructions on how to find the key to my room, which I did, and then registered the following morning. In general, the room was comfortable and large, the ac worked well, wi-fi also worked, the room had a safe, a mini-bar, and a kettle. The shower is also large, and there was plenty of hot water. Breakfast was fairly good, although more vegetables would have been nice. And the location, with a balcony overlooking the water, could not be beat!
