Full of character (with a museum in the basement). Close to restaurants and other sights (the cathedral/museums etc...). Self catering in rooms is basic - better to eat out. About 120 Euro taxi ride from Catania airport. Reception is not 24/7 so arriving out of hours needs some advance planning. Reception staff are very helpful. Ortigia itself is tiny and you can walk everywhere. Don't forget your afternoon siestas.

Las fotos de la propiedad son una mentira. El cuarto estaba en pésimas condiciones, enchufes rotos góticos fundidos, la secadora de pelo rota colgando. E papel de baño lo ponen sobre una silla oxidada, las llaves de agua y la regadera están oxidadas, solo alcanza el agua caliente para una persona. Llegamos a abrir todas las ventanas por el olor a humedad y aromatizante. Hay un tapete que se te pega a los pies de lo sucio que está. El patio que sale en las fotos es un cuchitril lleno de basura Muy mal la verdad.

This is easily one of the most charming and wonderful hotel stays that we have had in years. We would not only stay here again, but highly recommend it. We chose and paid more for room 12, which I highly recommend. It felt like am apartment with three rooms rather than just a hotel stay - it had ocean views from two rooms. The location is A .

Room was spacious and well equipped in an ancient villa like atmosphere (used to be the Jewish public baths still visible in the ground floor). At night (no staff to refer to) we could never figure out how to heat the room, so spent a rather cold December night.

We had a great stay at Alla Giudecca. It's very well located and had a nice ambiance. Breakfast was great and communication easy. The concierge helped us figure out parking and upgraded us to a larger room because it happened to be available. The beds are rather firm, but the spaces are charming and the hotel is just steps away from the water and many of the sights and restaurants. Highly recommend taking a tour of the Jewish baths on site if you have the chance.

My room was so far from the front desk down an alley with limited wifi. I asked them to move me the 2nd day. The bathroom had mold in the shower and the kitchenette needed updating. The blowdryer was broken and the mirror was old. This has a great potential for a hotel but needs updating. The room was big and could have been 2 rooms.

If you like rustic and history, this is undoubtedly the place for you. We loved it. Your neighbors are local people and you feel completely immersed in the local experience. The jewish baths were a plus, although we felt the charge for a 20 minute dissertation seemed a bit steep ( 7 Euros) The buffet breakfast was worth the convenience, light but pleasing enough. Our beddings and pillows was like lying down and smelling down feathers! This is how we sleep at home, and never, ever get down beddings in any hotel or bnb. The staff, especially Jess were very helpful. They let us check in early and put us in a room that didnt require climbing steps, since my husband had a fairly recent knee surgery. I would absolutely stay at this place again! There are restaurants near by and everything is in walking distance. Wear comfortable shoes. Ortigia is mostly old cobblestones.

I wouldn't recommend this place. It's an apartment, the rooms and bathroom are in the second floor, which has a very low ceiling, if you are 1,75m or more you can't walk standing up straight without hitting your head! The shower had no effectively box, so all the bathroom gets wet. The external window of the main bedroom was broken, and there was no black-out curtain, so we have sunlight in very early in the morning. The breakfast could have more fresh fruits once it's a hotel in Sicily! Also the bread was over 9h20 and there was no refill! They call this a hotel, but the reception is there only for a few hors a day and they can't help you even to call a cab!

Bursting With History And Charm
On our 7th visit to Ortiigia we could not book our usual preferred hotel and I remembered a friend had stayed here and so we booked. A converted Palazzo built around a courtyard it also houses, in a basement, what is probably the oldest Mikvah in Europe. The rooms are large and airy, ours was a small suite with a living room, compleate with a stone fire place, and terrace with views across the rooftops to the sea. Very clean and comfortable, the whole building oozes charm and history. Two things to remember: There are no lifts (stairs are quite steep) and the property cannot be approached by a car. The nearest point to be reached is about a 50 meter walk. Service is polite, friendly and with a smile and we will certainly return.
