Piccolo Hotel Casa Mia

everything was perfect! We were pleased of everything: room , breakfast, staff, location

If you dont expect any comforts but just want a nice clean basic room then this hotel is ideal. We stayed here for a week which was too long, we should have booked an apartment however if youre only intending on staying a few nights then its perfect

We were so surprised when we opened the front door to find the beautiful courtyard. Our room was unbelievable with 2 balconies overlooking the street and wonderful old furnishings. The staff was very accomodating and the breakfast was supurbe. This hotel is within easy walking distance to Ortigia and is in a quiet and convenient location. We were fortunate to get one of the Parking spots direcly in front of the Hotel. Very nice and would highly reccommend this place if you want a wonderful experience.

The hotel is well situated, being just a short walk from Ortigia. Entrance is through a lovely, old courtyard. We stayed in a standard double room, which was fairly small but ok. There were a few problems, such as very few coathangers and less than adequate storage for clothes, which we didn't raise with staff because we weren't staying long enough for them to be issues. (All were easy and cheap to correct. Our fault for not raising the matters or the hotel's for not attending to them in the first place? Take your pick.) Breakfast was fine, although the topping-up of things like hot water and juice could have been better. Overall, the hotel was good value and quite adequate for a stay of 2-3 nights.

I enjoyed my 4 night stay at Casa Mia, which is very good value. It is convenient for exploring Ortigia (a 10 min walk to the East), the ruins of Neapolis (a 20 min walk or easy bus journey to the North) and for making day trips by train from the rail/bus stations which are a 5 minute walk to the West. Although on a main road, the rooms all face internal courtyards and my room was very quiet. My room (for single use) was in fact a double on the first floor. It was large, with a high ceiling, and a long narrow bathroom (with not much space to put things). Furnished with a traditional wooden wardrobe and an ornate and impressive bed headboard, there was disappointingly no chair in the room, nor any desk or table at which one could write (although there were 2 circular bedside tables). The double bed comprised 2 single mattresses on a metal frame which clanked a bit whenever I turned. The room got very warm: there was an air conditioning unit which was only moderately effective when it worked, and it broke down on my second day. I reported it and it was fixed but then it broke down again. It was comfortable sleeping with the window open, but this would have been a bigger problem in the summer. There was an external shaded terrace with tables and chairs which I used to write etc. I almost gave a '5' rating overall, but the minor room problems narrowly tipped it to a 4. I recommend day trips by train to the wonderful baroque cities of Noto and Ragusa.

The room was adequate. However our room had no windows that could be opened and still be secure, it overlooked an interior area between the building but someone could walk into our room from that area. The rooms in the courtyard had no windows and there was only the door that opened to the courtyard. The description we read was that the rooms were decorated with antiques, but I would not call 'old furniture' antiques.

I would recommend a stay here: great location being 5 minutes from the train/bus station and the main sights; clean, large and comfortable rooms; and friendly service. The only complaints were the lack of TV (didn't miss it, but it was stated as an inclusion on hotels.com) and wifi access only working in the hotel lounge. However, these were only small things and it was a comfortable and good value base for this destination.

Easy walk to lots of shops and sights of this port city. Good beds,good breakfasts. Staff great, top value for dollar..Another winner!
