Ortygia hotel rooms a the Independent

"The rooms are stunningly decorated, comfortable beds, great air conditioning, very clean. The common area are also breathtaking. The staff are also amizng and helped us book transportation and arranged a beach club day. This location is also close to all shopping and great dinning. The included breakfast was also great. "

"Close to the shore. "

"It was our second time visiting. A fantastic building, great view, roof-top swimming pool... Exceptional staff, perfectly balancing formality of a high-end hotel service and relaxed vacation atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to help us locate and retrieve our lost luggage on the way from the airport. They showed they truly cared."

"This was a beautiful hotel that was centrally located. Staff were friendly and amazing assisting with accessing the property given that this hotel is located in a pedestrian zone. Two staff members stood out Andres and Roberto. These two individuals were very helpful and responded promptly to any response that we made. Excellent customer service!! "

"We did have a small challenge finding the hotel front door (hahaha). Once we got inside, the hotel is beautiful. It does have an elevator, which is great with luggage. We used the valet offsite parking, which was GREAT. The breakfast was delicious. We did a walking tour of Ortega from the hotel. Great food options around as well. Highly recommend the hotel."

"Had a wonderful time in Syracuse and Ortigia"

"Unique room with a skylight and terrace. Located right near the water. We also parked in the paid lot right there- not cheap but worth it for the proximity to the hotel. Breakfast was delicious- I awoke to the smell of fresh baked goods. The highlight was the innkeeper- a friendly, funny gentleman and I enjoyed our conversations. "

"Great location. Friendly and helpful staff. Great breakfast area with view. Nice room. I had a terrace with table and chairs. Wonderful"

"Beautiful hotel right on the waterfront with parking (paid) just in front. Excellent service and breakfasts. Room elegant with high ceilings but would benefit from air conditioning for the summer months. Easy walking to seafront and around Ortigia. "
