Comfortable and luxurious room and a lovely balcony to sit out on to watch the sun set.

The parking isn’t cheap. We were given a reduced rate but it was still about 25 euros a night which needs to be paid in cash. This is organised by the police and there’s nothing the hotel can do about it. It is convenient, and it is worth doing

Everything! The location. The room. The breakfast Wow!!! But most of all the staff. There were 2 different ladies taking it in turns to cover the desk and they were amazing. They explained everything to us, laughed with us, helped my with my Italian and made us feel very warm and welcome. Priceless!

Staff couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. Our room was beautifully furnished,had a lovely view over the harbour, and was very quiet. It's great to be in Ortigia, this was an excellent location. The breakfast was superb, with fruit, cheeses, meats and typical italian pastries - we were sad to leave!

Nothing, everything was perfect!

One of the most beautiful terraces in Ortigia, perfect for admiring the sunset and enjoying the quiet of the island. The location is ideal, just 10 minutes away from every monument and point of interest in Ortigia. The room is equipped with all comforts, and the vintage furniture adds an incredible touch of beauty! Manu welcomed us warmly and assisted us during self check-in, providing us with all the information we needed. His kindness and welcoming smile were truly appreciated. Absolutely worth recommending!

Everything exceeded our expectations.

The location is perfect, it the heart of Ortigia. The staff is extreamly friendly and helpful with recommendations for places to visit, where to eat, etc. The room is clean, spacious and has character. We especially liked the bathroom. I would recommend to book a room with a sea view, it is worth the experience. The breakfast is local and served with style.

Palazzo Giunta - Porta Marina Ortigia was a beautiful stay. We stayed in the romantic suite with terrace and loved it! A lovely room, with an incredible balcony overlooking the port. The staff, especially Noemi were lovely and accommodating, and the breakfast was exceptional. Would definitely visit again!

What makes for a wonderful stay in a b&b are the who work and own the establishment. This was the case here. They were helpful,courteous,attentive and joyful.The breakfast server realized that my friend preferred a plain pastry and the next morning there was one for my partner. The owner is an exuberant young woman that talked about her life and joy of running her business. She was most helpful in getting our transportation squared away for next part of our tour through Sicily. The breakfast was outstanding and beautifully presented. A super place to stay. A very caring place!

The location is perfect for exploring the island. There is a public parking a few meters from the hotel. The building is very well preserved and the atmosphere is perfect. Breakfast is amazing. The rooms are small but comfortable. The staff is 10/10, especially Noemi who with her kindness and professionalism makes the stay even better. I recommend the hotel 100%.

It is pretty noisy early in the morning (from outside)

Friendly staff. Close to the center.

The bathroom is a little small but still perfectly fine.

The hotel is right on the port, near all the main local attractions and the rooms a delight. Coupled with lovely staff and a fun breakfast - what more could you want.

The location was perfect and the morning breakfast was Sicilian style

Only downside is the main stairs that are narrow and steep. No lift. Ensure that you can carry your suitcase; that it is not too heavy. Luckily, my partner was able to carry my suitcase up; but it was a challenge even for him.

We booked the Romantic suite with private terrace. It was an amazing view. The room was spacious with furniture and decor that was generations old (very tasteful). Modern bathroom despite the old building. Breakfast served on the private terrace- amazing spread- quantity was too much though for the 2 of us (I felt bad for not finishing the food). You can walk all the island by foot. The room had two sets of doors for good wind and noise insulation.

The only thing that I didn't like and I'm not trying to be picky, but the pillows were so flat and soft and gave no support which made sleeping uncomfortable.

The location was excellent, close to all attractions and was in a quiet part of the town, the staff went out of their way to help and were very informative and friendly.

We stayed at the third floor and the place doesn't have an elevator. The place was clean, but some areas like below the wardrobe and other furniture were full of dust.

Location was great and the view from the balcony was beautiful. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

Steep stairs

Great location, lovely room.

Room was a little small and had no view but clean and quiet.

Breakfast was really beautifully presented and delicious, fruit, meats, cheese, and a selection of different cakes each morning.

Stayed in June 2023

It was a highlight of our trip. I only wish we could have stayed longer!

We loved everything about this property. It is perfectly located on Ortigia, and our room had an ocean view. The furnishings and style feel like a luxury old world hotel, but Simona, Noemi, and the rest of the staff make it feel like home. They helped with taxis, luggage, gave us fantastic food and your recommendations, and were accommodating with our challenging schedule. But the best thing—the best thing is the breakfast. Enough artisan pastries to satisfy anyone, with different kinds and styles each day. Fruit, cheeses, cold cuts, everything, and it was presented so beautifully. Hands down the best breakfast I’ve be ever had in decades of b&b’s.
