The situation is just perfect! Ortygia is so small, you can reach any place in minutes from anywhere.The big advantage of this hotel is its situation at the sea and the look from the balcony. This quoted in May - I suppose that you cannot open the balcony windows in summer! Breakfast is a mixture of Sicilian (sweets and tarts)... More

Hotel Livingston is centrally located in Ortigia--perfect for walking around the charming town, and it's right next to the sea so the views are just wonderfu! Rooms are very comfortable and elegantly decorated, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet is also delicious and served in the rooftop restaurant with amazing views of the sea and... More

Professionally run hotel with staff who go out of their way to be helpful. Eg produced specially baked gluten free croissant, cakes and bread for my breakfast - all dished up in rooftop restaurant with sea sparkling in the background. Perfect seaside location -Ortygia has great charm and hotel is well placed for wandering.

Stayed for 5 nights here to explore the beautiful city of Ortygia. Central location but then again Ortygia is small so pretty much anyplace there is walking distance from all the attractions, shops and restaurants. Room is a bit small and dark but comes with reasonably good amenities. We had a view of the sea from the balcony of our... More
