Great spot in Siracusa and easy walk into Ortigia. The staff was friendly and Alessandro was a great help to us and answered our questions in English and Italian. Plus who can resist the refreshingly delicious free granita.

We stayed here for a few nights and had a great experience from start to finish. The room was very clean, the staff was welcoming and helpful whenever we needed anything, and the breakfast had plenty of fresh options each morning. The air conditioning worked flawlessly, which made the room especially comfortable after a long day of sightseeing. I'd definitely stay here again and would recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

The hotel is very central in the main town of Siracusa. Plenty of good restaurants on the doorstep and only ten minute walk from the station. Ortigia only a 15 minute walk away. The bathroom facilities and room decor are slightly old fashioned but all working fine.

A nice, spacious room. Excellent breakfast service and food. Good location a short walk from Ortigia. Also within a longer walk of the archaeological area Neopolis. Reasonably priced. Our second stay.

Good location

Perfect location - easy walk to/from the Siracusa railway station and to Ortigia. Nice restaurants (Agape recommended) nearby. Very good breakfast. The main road was very very noisy - Get a room that is not facing the main road. We were 1st floor - could be quieter higher up?

I very much enjoyed my stay at this wonderful hotel . The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast staff was impeccable and the breakfast was excellent ! Housekeeping made sure all your needs were met. The location was perfect. I took the Interbus from Catania Airport and got off at there last stop which was a short and easy walk ( with 2 pieces of luggage ) . Ortigia was also a short walk over the bridge to explore. Many walkable things to do in opposite direction as well. Plenty of restaurants nearby ( must try the Indian restaurant across from hotel ) . Definitely recommend staying at this Hotel.

4/10 Fair

I would not agree with the 4 star rating. This hotel is centrally located just outside Ortiga old town, the breakfast was good and the rooms were spacious but that is where the positives end. The hotel is tired with peeling paint in places throughout. The patio area in front of the main doors is now used to store garbage and recycling. There is no bar or restaurant despite what the website states. The experience was like a B&B. The central open-air patio has plastic furniture but without any cushions so you cannot comfortably relax anywhere but your room. I tried sitting there but it seems to be used just as a smoking location for visitors. The rooms appear to have central aircon but we were told it was not operational so the room temp was +25c by mid afternoon making sleeping very difficult. Due to the location right on the main road it is too noisy to open the windows. Very disappointing experience and would not stay again.

All of the staff were wonderful - kind, helpful and welcoming from the moment we arrived. A special mention must go to the glamorous young woman on reception with the most incredible eyeliner. She was so friendly and approachable, and her English was fantastic (certainly far better than my very basic, poorly spoken Italian 😅). Sadly, I didn't catch her name, but I hope she recognises herself. When we arrived, she kindly checked with another member of staff to see if our rooms were ready, luckily we were able to check in early. She then showed us our location on a local area map and gave us excellent recommendations on where to eat, drink, and visit, along with helpful tips on how to get around. On our last evening she was more than happy to arrange a taxi to the airport for us the following morning, which was greatly appreciated. The rooms were very clean and spacious, with fully working air conditioning. One of the rooms also had a small balcony, which was a lovely added touch. ( The road can be a little loud if you have the window open but we wore earplugs at night so no problem for us). The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of options, including pastries, fruit and yoghurt, cereal, bacon and eggs, olives, cheeses, sun-dried tomatoes, and more - plenty of choice for me as a vegetarian. We would highly recommend the Grande Albergo Alfeo and would happily stay here again. Thanks again from Leanne, Freya & Louise.
