Guest Reviews

• Maria (4/5): -
• Silvia (10/5): Vacaciones - Muy lindo el departamento, muy bien decorado, limpio y bien ubicado
• Nicola (10/5): Ortigia - Gorgeous apartment. Was a little fazed by the lift straight into the room.. but found it quite fun All was good.
• Elisabeth (2/5): nie mehr - Lage/ Bett Zugang mit Lift in Wohnung/ Hund angeleint im Innenhof/ Drohungen seitens Antonio/ Drohung 80 Euro bezahlen zu müssen bei nicht korrekter Abfallentsorgung (täglich was anderes). Balkon nicht nutzbar.
• Bryan and Laura (7/5): We loved Ortigia. We took a 1 hour Tuk Tuk tour and loved it. Be sure to walk Via de Roma. - The location was wonderful. The room was very clean and well equipped. You could tell that a lot of time and thought went into the design of the room. Fabio was very responsive and instructions to find the place were excellent The area we were in had a broken water pipe. We had no water for either night. The property manager did a great job communicating with us to keep us updated on the problem. It was unfortunate. Had we not experienced this problem? We would have given it a higher rating.
• Misung (10/5): - Really good location. In side old town most place might walking distance. Has Coffee, tea, olive oil, salt and sugar it make easy trip. Very quick response. Maybe old town water pressure was poor.
• Tove (5/5): Terrible street noise in the two-bedroom apartment. - Our second stay in the apartment. The location is nice, the look of the apartment is fantastic, the amenities are great. When we arrived the apartment was icy cold. We froze for the first two days, the apartment got heated enought on the third. It was very moist inside. The floors are cold, which is expected. The terrace was in dirty bad condition, we did not use it at all. The worst thing apart from the cold was the noise. There is a bar 10-15 meters from the apartment and the noise is dreadful. There is no sound isolation at all - the bedrooms are super noisy from people walking by, shouting and the bar noises. We slept poorly because of the noise from the street. We paid a very high price for the apartment and expected excellency - instead we got the worst stay of our 3-week trip in Sicily even though the weather was fine.
• Louise (9/5): Très bien situé - Proximité du centre historique, par contre un bon 20 min. à pied de la gare et le terminal des bus. Appartement petit et sombre
• Pauline (8/5): - Stylish apartment in a great location. Helpful staff/contact who were very responsive. Not very practical to actually live in, style over practicality in a few areas.
• Arthur (10/5): -
• Tanja (10/5): Wir haben hier drei Tage in dieser wunderschönen Stadt verbracht. - Ein sehr schöne Unterkunft mitten in der Altstadt mit Fahrstuhl.
• Elena (8/5): Schöne Lage, nette Vermieter, perfekt für einen Kurztrip nach Siracusa - Tolle Lage, sehr netter Vermieter der uns viele Tipps gegeben hat, sauber In unserem Zimmer gab es einen Aufzug der leider laut war genauso wie der Kühlschrank. Außerdem war es etwas komisch für uns dass ein Aufzug direkt in unser Zimmer geführt hat, er ging nur auf der anderen Seite auf aber für 2 Frauen im Urlaub trotzdem etwas komisch.
• Marcelo (9/5): -
• orly sarid (9/5): מומלץ !מיקום מעולה - אנחנו שהינו בדירה הגדולה , דירה מהממת .המיקום ממש במרכז בסמטאות. בעל הדירה בקשר זמין תמיד. מומלץ ביותר! אהבנו הכל.
• Guillermina (7/5): -
• Annemarte (10/5): - Sentralt, ryddig, bra vert, rent og god aircondition
• Claire (9/5): Lovely stay - Very modern apartment in lovely location in Ortigia. You have to take your own rubbish away and didn’t tell you where you had to put it.
• Katalin (8/5): -
• Gullo (10/5): -
• Patricia ATM (8/5): Experiencia en Siracusa - La ubicacion muy buena.El anfitrion excelente,nos dejo entrar antes de la hora indicada.Eso nos soluciono,asi dejamos las valijas y ya aprovechamos ese dia. La entrada podria ser mas prolija,no es culpa del dueño,porque es un patio compartido con otras personas que viven ahi.El perro a mi no me molestó para nada,porque me gustan los perros.Habia cafetera y dejo capsulas,lo mismo que te y otras cosas como sal,aceite,azucar.Solo desayunabamos en en monolocale.Creo como comentario extra,que los muebles de la cocina se pueden mejorar.Es solo mi opinion.Pero los electrodomesticos eran nuevos y el anafe de vitroceramica tambien,aunque no lo usamos.El tamaño del monolocale bien
• Anna (10/5): -
• Sonia (8/5): - El sitio estaba genial muy céntrico, muy bonito y muy limpio. El hotel estaba muy bien la única pega que le pondría es que hay que hacer mucho papeleo antes de entrar y que había un perro suelto todo el rato en el patio de la entrada y daba un poco de miedo entrar
• Veronica (9/5): We loved staying here and would book again as it was relaxing and a great location - This place is better than in the pictures. The apartment is a great space. We were travelling with 2 children and had lots of room for them to relax and unwind as well as play. We really felt at home here. The rooftop terrace is a beautiful place for a drink. Great location, the beach is less than 10 minutes walk! The beds were slightly uncomfortable as they were two singles pushed together but honestly, that was the only downside.
• Jaka (10/5): - Very nice apartment, easy to find, elevator directly into apartment, good and quiet ac, lots of kitchen equipment (dishwasher, coffee maker, cattle, microwave). Clean beautifully decorated. Poor water pressure on shower & loud tv sounds from neighbor.
• Radojcic (10/5): Exceptional - Unnecessary communication via email before the arrival often confused me.
• Madvee (9/5): Loved it! Would stay again if (or rather when) I am back in Ortigia! :) - The room was spacious and well lit. The kitchenette had the basics to allow for a quick meal or a nice cup of tea (kettle - big plus). The manager was super nice and helpful; came to help promptly when the key got stuck. There is a dog in the entrance/courtyard; a plus for dog lovers but for people who are terrified of dogs, this might be an issue. Otherwise, the dog is friendly and quiet). Not very sound proof; you could hear the people from the adjacent apartment. However, this might be more of an Ortigia/Sicily old town problems as opposed to an issue with this accommodation per se.
• Jessica (10/5): Best place we stayed in Italy! - Everything was perfect. Fabio was so friendly , helpful, and accommodating. Amazing location , beautiful and clean apartment. It has all the necessities. No complaints. It was all perfect!
• Clara (7/5): Overall the apartment was a good base to explore Ortigia, however due to the small size and the level of comfort, the va - Fabio greeted us with a warm welcome and showed us the apartment. He also gave us some nice restaurant recommendations. The bed was big and comfortable. The flat is in a good location, near lots of shops and restaurants. The dog who lives in the courtyard is very friendly. It’s possible to sit outside the flat in the courtyard. The flat felt a little dark and cold even with the air-condition on. What might be an advantage in the summer, wasn’t while we were there because it was also quite cold outside. The scent in the flat is quite strong, maybe some room fragrance or the cleaning products, we found it a little bit too intense.
• Leonora (8/5): We extended our stay another week! The hosts are very gracious and accommodating! - The location is ideal and the apartment is well equipped and designed. Lots of light and very comfortable for two adults. It is a Studio apt afternoon all but it would be nice to have a comfortable reading chair. Other than that they have thought of everything!
• Melissa (8/5): Very good - Authentic neighbour hood. Good kitchenette Practical items to make the trip smoother- laundry by handf washing facilities Clotes drying rack Fruit juicer to male freshly squeezed juice Lovable dog in courtyard Too cramped for 2 people. Ideal foe 1 person. Next door to noisy wine bar (fun wine bar however) Not enough room for 2 suitcases. Patchy WiFi . Expected with so much stone. Quite manageable though
• E (6/5): No on this specific studio, but would def. rent a diff. place from this company - Wonderful hosts. I would rent from this company again, just not this apartment. It was compact, in a great location and had everything you needed but... There's a large dog on the property that jumped and humped my husband on arrival. My husband is almost 2 meters tall and over 200 lbs and he had a hard time getting the dog off him. We tried to sit outside (and the courtyard is very basic but we wanted a bit more room) and the dog came right over and did it again and scratched him up. The dog is owned by another tenant at the property so not really anything mgmt can do about it but we were not comfortable and we like dogs! They need to let people know, a small or elderly person could really get hurt.
• Tove (10/5): Look no further for a spacious, beautiful apartment - Stayed in the two bedroom apartment (not in the studio, which we originally booked) and it was FANTASTIC! Would recommend to anyone wanting a beautiful, clean, original, spacious, well-equipped apartment in central Ortigia!
• Ulla (10/5): Absolutely loved our stay here, could not have been any better! - Stunning apartment and great location!
• Harriet (7/5): Really comfy and convenient - Great location, comfy bed, owners communication was fab- even gave us recs for food! We thought the bathroom was slight and slightly out dated. Little bit noisy with the lift right next door. Minor inconveniences though!
• Kerena (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lisa (8/5): Very good -
• Anne (3/5): Disappointing property - Very little. In particular, the shower room was awkward to use, and needed a good clean. The only toiletries were a watered down hand wash of poor quality and a similarly watered down shower gel. We were there for four nights having paid for six. This was to do with problems of getting to Ortigia from Palermo as no transport was available on Sundays. Also we left a day early in order to get a direct flight back to Edinburgh. As we made the bookings before arranging our transport to/from Ortigia we did not request a refund for these 2 nights. As it turned out it was a bonus because we were glad to leave this property with its poor pillows and uncomfortable bed. No staff came to the property with fresh towels or to clean. Another no no was the lift which went directly to the room. If anything had gone wrong with it we would have been stuck.
• Jack (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ball (10/5): We had a very comfortable stay, the reception staff were friendly and helpful and we loved Ortigia. -
• Charles (9/5): Superb - Very comfortable bed and well equipped kitchen. The host was responsive to fixing some issues.
• Johanna (7/5): Very nice apartment in a great location, but with that 'property management' feel. - The location was great - but then the island is so small it would be difficult to have a bad one! The street was off the beaten path and quiet (except for scooters- unavoidable). The apartment was well set-up, very nicely decorated, and comfortable. A lot of care has been put into designing the apartment, and it was perfect for our family of 3 (including teenager) Getting in was tricky - the app they sent with all the information didn't work, and the instructions to find the keys were incomplete. Responses to questions were fast, but not very much info was provided (all in the app I guess?). More pillows and linens would have been appreciated - there was no cover on the thin duvets and only 1 thin pillow each. More hooks or storage in the bathrooms would be helpful.
• Madara (7/5): Good -
• Rebecca (9/5): Great location for exploring - Location was great
• Nadia (9/5): Superb -
• John (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mark (9/5): Would definitely recommend this. - Beautiful decor and great location.
• Donna (8/5): In historical centre which offered easy access to eating out, bars and shops but building work close - The apartment itself was very nice, stylish and clean. Modern facilities and good kitchen with all that's needed for your stay. Security gate to a courtyard made you feel safe entering apartment from street. Heavy building work was going on at the apartment next door, which caused alot of dust and excessive noise from approx 7am on weekdays. This meant we could not use the small terrace at rear ro eat as scaffolding was present and working above caused dust, so back door was kept shut. The reason why we paid extra for the superior apartment! Builders were polite and friendly but we should have been informed at booking or before stay at the extent of the building work. This was a special wedding anniversary stay so ruined it abit. On day of check out, walls were being knocked down, so was relieved we were leaving. We understand it is a historical centre but when its in the same courtyard it does make a difference to the stay you have. So this was disappointing. Otherwise it would have been top rating.
• Diana (8/5): Lovely place and apartment, a little more information would have been useful. - The location was excellent for exploring Ortigia and the apartment was spacious, nicely decorated and very clean The constant series of automated and often irrelevant phone messages. It would have been much more useful to have a 1-page information sheet in the apartment with a map showing where to buy basic food items, where to put the rubbish and maybe local transport options. Perhaps even a tourist information leaflet?
• Simon (8/5): Great location and great island. - location very central in Ortigia. Good bed. Parking a car and getting to the property was a challenge. We parked at Molo Saint’Antonio dock and walked 15 mins into the island. Also the dog next door was a bit friendly.
• Ileana (5/5): Passable - The place was in the center of Ortigia which was very convenient. The room was renovated and big enough for our 3-night stay. It was a bit noisy as there there was a construction going on next door. The room wasn't that clean. Due to the wind there was some noice coming from the elevator door as it was the main entrance to the room. The manager of the building had a dog which was crying from 7am because it was on a leash and it was hard for us to sleep.
• Emily (10/5): Great location in Ortigia! - Big open space, balconies, really good air conditioning, and large dining table.
• Adrian (9/5): Very nice, comfy apartment to make the most of Ortigia. - A lovely apartment: bright, clean, very comfy bed, excellent kitchen area. During the heatwave it provided a very comfy space to retreat to. The aircon worked well and was almost silent! The apartment is in a great location for making the most of Ortigia. The apartment staff was easily contactable and very responsive through Whatsapp. Within a secure courtyard, the apartment is accessed via a lockable door (good) or a lift which had some technical problems (such as letting us into the wrong apartment!). Understandably, there's quite a bit of conversion work going on in Ortigia to convert the beautiful buildings into apartments, etc: this included within our courtyard and our private balcony on the back was shrouded in hessian. No great drama, but we should have been warned.
• Adrian (9/5): Superb -
• Suzanne (10/5): Great location , beautiful apartment very comfortable ,clean - Location , beautifully decorated apartment ,comfortable beds AC that worked and was quiet all the things you need for a comfortable stay and a lift There was nothing we didn’t like
• Belinda (8/5): Very good - The house was very nice. Very clean and spacious. The parking was very stressful. Very difficult to find parking. The shower did not have much pressure.
• Laura (8/5): Fantastic apartment in the center of Ortigia - Fantastic location in the centre of Ortigia, you are steps away from one of the coolest cocktail bars (BOATS) in town. Everything you could possibly need is really close by - supermarkets, gelatos, cafes, restaurants, bars. The apartment was really well equipped with everything (and more) than you could ever think of. I really loved that they provided hand washing detergent to wash your clothes in a bucket, and a drying rack to hang them out on. The wifi is great, as our phones had no reception within the building. The tool used to provide access to the courtyard and apartment was excellent and made checking in really smooth and easy. The lock box is a bit tricky to open, but just needs a little jiggling. The host was really quick at responding to messages and answering any questions. We had a great stay. Just something to note that there is a large dog who lives on the property. He's very gentle and sweet, but he really took a shine to me. My husband had to physically pull the dog off me when he started enthusiastically humping my leg. I was left with scratches and bruises and each time we left the apartment the dog tried to repeatedly jump up on me. He's a big dog, weighing around 70kgs, so not light. Thankfully I'm ok with dogs, and he is the sweetest, but it made going in and out of the apartment a bit of a hassle as he really really really liked me :).
• Susan (8/5): Loved the location and the apartment itself was clean, modern and functional - Great location. Modern bathroom. Very clean. Spacious. Lift access Unfortunately they were working on the building right next door so drilling early in the morning. One day lift was being repaired
• Satomi (10/5): - The owner was wonderful to attend our needs. We were very happy with this place. The dog which some people were concerned was nothing but sweet
• Kevin (7/5): Good -
• Henry (10/5): Highly modern comfort in an ancient city - Our stay at Dione Apartments exceeded our expectations. The location was as we had planned and expected – very near the north end and “entrance” into Ortigia from mainland Siracusa. All of the primary tourist sites in Ortigia were no more than a 10-15 minute walk away and the bus/train station on the mainland was 20 minutes away. Like much of Ortigia, the apartment building is in a narrow pedestrian-only “alley” and from the outside the area does not look very inviting. But once you enter the building, then walk up the steps to the first floor and enter the apartment you are treated to a grand surprise of entering a totally different world from out in the alley. The apartment has been fully modernized with all of its style and appliances and features while also maintaining a bit of an authentic flavor of Ortigia with some of its decorations. There is one bedroom on the main floor with a very large bathroom on the other side of the main floor, and a second bedroom upstairs in a loft with its smaller bathroom right next to it. The bedrooms were a good size – not small and not large – just right. The living room/dining room/kitchen area was very spacious and very comfortable. Air conditioning worked just fine as did the large television, equipped with Netflix and Amazon Prime. The kitchen had all of the amenities one would want, but we did not use them, other than the refrigerator and microwave. This is the kind of apartment you would want to have to spend a whole week, not just four nights like we did. Germana and her team were very communicative and friendly. The pictures and description on the site here are quite good but don’t quite do it justice – it is even nicer and more comfortable than we expected. We would gladly come back to this apartment if we were to return to Ortigia someday.
• Paul (5/5): Passable - Location the bed isn’t a double but two soft single mattresses pushed together. very uncomfortable.
• Mathilde (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is very nice, the kitchen is well equipped and it was nice to be able to make your own breakfast. The elevator goes straight from the street to the apartment, so it is easy to bring in the luggage. Our host was very helpful. We experienced that there was no water because of some work in the area. As this seem to last for a longer period our host came and moved us to an even better apartment. As an extra bonus, the dog from the eighbors downstairs came to to say hello. (It can easily be avoided, but it was welcome as we missed our own dog) A little more wardrobe would have been nice
• Anonymous (9/5): Ortigia is incredible and this apartment made it all so easy and accessible. Closer to the parking than we expected too. - Fantastic location, well equipped & comfortable.
• Ásbjörg (10/5): We loved this apartment - New renovated apartment. Beautiful and clean. Great location in the middle of Ortigia. Nice terrace.
• Alina (10/5): Nice location, good apartment! - Location is great! Apartment is big and nice! The terrace on the roof is an additional great point! The boiler with hot water is limited. Wasn't enough for 4 women. But we managed :)
• Johanna (10/5): Perfect place to stay - Beautiful, comfortable, clean apartment in a perfect location. Had everything we needed and more. The host answered very quickly via text if we had any questions. Would definitely stay here again.
• Christine (8/5): We loved wandering the streets swimming in the sea and enjoyed the central location. - location and simple but stylish. Our request for proper towels was successful. very difficult gate to open . only two small towels on arrival
• Kathryn (4/5): don’t even attempt to drive there. it is not an option. you must park in a lot a ten min walk. carrying luggage and at n - it was close to a great restaurant. grungy old building dark street
• Mike (10/5): very central, clean and convenient - clean and well appointed
• Sara (9/5): Stylish appartement - Very stylish appartement in the center of Ortigia. Comfortable and spacious. Nothing
• Robert (8/5): Lost in amazing Ortigia - Location was absolutely amazing.In the heart of Ortiga close to the ancient ruins, very close to the beach and many bar around, kitchen was fully with equipments which is great. Well I was expecting to meet my host and asked so questions but check in and check out was online.No maps,no information inside the room.No reception at all. Toilet was to small for me and the front gate was horrible I've stucked there for a few times and waited for some strangers to help me go out - please change the lock
• Irene (10/5): fabulous stay! - excellent room and location. beautiful decor liked everything
• Tata (7/5): Good - Very clean and cozy. A super nice host. Siracusa is amazing. The place looked bigger in photos than it actually was.
• John (8/5): Lovely location with all cafes,restaurants and bars right on your doorstep. - Location Right in middle of everything you need in Ortega. Well appointed ground floor apartment with pleasant little courtyard for sitting out. Could only stay a week!
• Rachel (8/5): - We were overall
• Verified traveler (8/5): Perfect but change the bed in a real double bed - Excellent petit studio fonctionnel, moderne, propre et bien décoré en plein coeur d'Ortigia. Le seul regret est du côté du lit. Non seulement il s'agit de deux lits simples collés ce qui crée un creux en plein milieu très désagréable mais aussi, le matelas était très mou, faisant rapidement mal au dos. Hormis cela, c'est parfait!
• Alice (10/5): - The property is located in an amazing location, minutes away from beautiful piazzas and restaurants, yet on a quiet street in a private courtyard. It was sparkling clean and the owner was incredibly responsive and friendly! Highly recommend spending your stay in Siracusa here.
• JULIO CESAR (10/5): - The apartment is beautiful, modern, good taste, best location in Ortygia and clean. The host was easy to be in touch and helpful. Highly recomended!
• Robert (10/5): A very nice apartment - The apartment is VERY nice, newly renovated and located within a secure entrance way off one of the many walkway/alleyways of Italy. One of the people that live in that combination of apartments has a dog. It was a very nice dog but just be aware that its there. I have to admit it startled me a bit. Again, the apartment is very clean and new and has an elevator to get you to right into the apartment itself. Be sure to make arrangements with the owner to get the keys, etc. There is a pass code to get into the gate and then the keys were left for us by the apartment but we did not realize that. You can't park there but you can on one of the nearby main streets. Parking in Italy can be challenging so you may have to walk 5-10 minutes. It was a very nice stay.
• Hannah (8/5): Lovely little apparment - only issue was the dog - Lovely little appartment in Ortigia. Great location. Good communication. I really enjoyed my stay here and Ortigia Island particulatly was a fab place to be based! The only issue was a Boxer dog that lived in a neighbouring apartment but was left to roam around the courtyard to his own devises. I love dogs so was not too affected by this, but the dog spends the majority of its time in this courtyard and is allowed to pee there. One neighbour specifically warned me not to leave a towel outside to dry on a chair at all as the dog would pee on it. I am also sure the dog regularly peed not far from our front door, so that smell was not always pleasant. The dog was very friendly, but a little too friendly, trying to hump us as we left or returned to the apartment. Again, I am used to dogs so this was not too much of an issue, however someone not confident with medium sized dogs or someone scared could find this a big problem. Also, the dog howled some mornings continually when it was locked behind a gate. Which was sad, and also woke me up / stopped me sleeping in.
• Otmar (8/5): Sehr gut geeignet für Syrakus-Interessierte - Das Apartment ist klein – aber dafür ist der Preis günstig. Da es im Erdgeschoß liegt, ist es für Leute mit Gehbehinderung ideal (keine Treppen). Nachteil ist eine gewisse Lichtarmut: Einzige Quelle für Tageslicht ist ein in die Tür integriertes Fenster, das aber aus Gründen der Privatheit immer durch einen Spannvorhang verhängt sein muß. Das Apartment ist sehr ruhig – allerdings gibt es einen Hund im Hof, der gelegentlich wild bellt. Die Einrichtung ist ziemlich neu, die Ausstattung gut, der Sanitärbereich in Ordnung. Ein negatives Detail: Zunächst fanden wir kein Besteck! Es befand sich in einer Schublade, die weder einen Griff hatte – so daß man probehalber ‘mal hätte ziehen können – noch beschriftet war. Eine lästige Nachlässigkeit! Wir hatten schon Ersatzbesteck gekauft, ehe wir nach Tagen das eigentliche Besteck entdeckten. Das Personal, das wir erlebten, war freundlich. Allerdings war die Erreichbarkeit ein Problem: Wir hatten nur eine Mobilfunk-Nr., aber die Handy-Kommunikation von Syrakus über Deutschland nach Syrakus ist schwierig. Eine Adresse in der Stadt oder zumindest eine Festnetznummer wären hilfreich. Negativ war der Service. Es war wöchentliche Reinigung zugesagt. Stattdessen kam während unserer zwei Wochen niemand, keine Handtücher wurden gewechselt, nichts … Monieren konnte man nicht, siehe „Erreichbarkeit“.
• Verified traveler (8/5): - Great location. Comfortable space. Good A/C and Wifi.
• Angelo (8/5): - Ottimo loclae in una delle viuzze di ortigia, nulla da dire semplicità, e gentilezza dei gestori. Posto incantevole e dalla posizione eccezzionale per vivere al meglio la città. Unico inconveniente un'umidità un pò elevata nel locale, ma irrilevamente mantenendo ccesa l'aria condizionata.
• Susan M (8/5): Modern apartment, perfect location - Check in is arranged by calling the manager as no staff on site. Brand new apartment, beautifully decorated and well equipped. Excellent location. I couldn't get the air con to work but in fact the room was really cool. Neither could get the TV to switch on. No response to my SMS and it wasn't an important enough issue for me to phone
• Verified traveler (8/5): Lage sehr zentral, - alles vom Besten, gute Lage, saubere Zimmer, zentral gelegen.
