Local artisans craft ceramics and textiles in small workshops throughout this walkable historic district. Crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea embrace this authentic cultural enclave.

"We overall really enjoyed our 3 night stay here, and appreciated the quiet and historic charm of this hotel. It is an incredibly unique peace of property, with an attached historic Latomie that was both beautiful and intriguing—we really wished the hotel had access to explore the areas below. We also really appreciated the continental breakfast, and were surprised by other’s complaints in reviews we had read before staying here. It was the most elaborate continental breakfast we have ever experienced, with options ranging from fresh fruit, to delicious pastries, and even eggs and bacon for those with used to a more American meal. We loved the pool as well, however we were disappointed that it was only open until 7pm every day, we would have enjoyed an evening swim. The bar was also closed, though they provided service through the bar inside. We also really enjoyed the 2 for $22 aperitivo offered from the bar. The room we stayed in was small and a bit dated, but met our expectations for an older hotel. We also had issues with the AC not turning off and making our room very cold. We were able to find parking every night, however I would not describe it as a big parking lot, and it was overflowing every night with people crammed wherever they could find room."

"Beautiful hotel with wonderful hospitality We absolutely loved our stay at Hotel Algilà Ortigia Charme. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, friendly and genuinely welcoming. The hotel is full of Sicilian character and charm, and its location in Ortigia was perfect for exploring on foot. Our room was comfortable and beautifully suited to the character of the hotel, and the staff were always happy to help with recommendations and anything we needed. After travelling throughout Sicily for two weeks, what stood out most was the genuine hospitality. We felt like valued guests, not just another reservation. Algilà was exactly what we hoped for from a Sicilian hotel — charming, personal and welcoming. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ortigia!"
