"Schönes Agriturismo inmitten von Zitronenbäumen. Netter Service. Geräumige Zimmer in super Zustand. Das Frühstück ist reichhaltig, der Fokus liegt landestypisch auf Süßem. Zu Abend wir ein mehrgängiges Menü angeboten, mit sizilianischen Gerichten, aus Produkten des Agriturismos, aber nur vegetarisch, zumindest als wir da waren.

Top Ortigia Hotel Reviews

Palazzo Artemide - VRetreats

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel"

Palazzo Gilistro

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was great, the room was charming and the breakfast was the best in Italy! There was street noise in the later evening as we were trying to sleep. We are not party people. The arrival and parking situation was unclear as this was our first Ortigia trip. I thought that we had arranged for someone to park our car. We had to walk our luggage in to the hotel with no where to park leaving someone with the car and police officers telling us we could not stay there then drive to a public parking and pay there. We needed help to find the hotel property and this took lots of texts."

Algila' Ortigia Charme Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved this hotel -- the location is perfect and the staff couldn't be more helpful and lovely. The AC is strong and the facilities are well maintained. The included breakfast is comprehensive and delicious!! Shoutout to Sabrina at the front desk who was extra helpful to us when trying to get our car at an unusual time."
