Camera con Vista is a beautiful bed and breakfast. We had a beautiful view, exactly like the one shown in the photo. The furnishing in the room were restored antiques and gave the room a lovely charm. The room was spotless and cleaned daily. Valentina was most helpful and friendly. She was very kind in helping us in planning our... More

Cameraconvista was a very comfy place with a spacious room with high ceilings and charming antique furniture and art work on walls to lend a bohemian arty feel. Lovely view of harbour with French doors. Valentina and her colleague were very friendly and nice and served a nice buffet breakfast. Located a short walk to everywhere in Ortygia and shuttle...

We stayed here with our 2-year old and his holiday would have been perfect staying in watching the boats all day! The rooms are fine and the views are wonderful, but it can be a bit noisy, especially at the weekend. The seaview rooms are on the second floor and there is no lift, so carrying bags and a toddler...

Our first mistake was not piping up when Valentina, the proprietor I'd been emailing with, took us into a B&B just next door to the entrance to Cameraconvista. We've stayed in auberges in Europe before where the main place uses satellite rooms nearby for space, but I get the impression from having read these glowing reviews before booking that the... More

I guess it was a nice enough B&B. The room was very large with lovely views. Unfortunately, the name of the B&B is not anywhere on the outside of the building and they don't give instructions on how to find it. We spent two nights there and had a very nice time. There was a very large nightmarish picture of... More

I stayed here in November for 5 nights with my son and his partner. We had two spacious, very nicely furnished rooms, both with french doors onto balconies with wonderful views out over the bay. Loved watching people stroll along the promenade and listen to the rigging on sailboats below. The staff were very helpful and pleasant and we were... More

Our stay at Ortigia's CameraConVista was superb! The view was a total visual delight, with many hours of our 5 night stay spent sitting on the balcony enjoying all the sights and sounds of the bay with its boats, people, and birds. The room was large, very clean, and well appointed with a very good bathroom. Angelo was gracious and... More

Perfect location in the heart of Ortigia - just round the corner from the Cathedral. We were delighted with our room. It was very spacious and clean, with lots of character and a wonderful view from the balcony over the sea and harbour. The B&B is in a quiet location right next to the sea and is a perfect base...

We are a danish family of four who have stayed twice at the Camera con Vista. It has a perfect location, directly in the centre of the wonderful city of Siracusa, but still it's a quiet place with a remarkable view of the harbour and the city. Rooms a spacious and nice. If we ever visit Siracusa again we are... More
