5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 December 2011

We didn't book, simply turned up. No problems - the owner was friendly and welcoming, advising us on good places to eat. The room was spacious, well equipped, quiet and stylish. Really liked the single piece of marble used for the shower tray. Very comfortable bed. Totally relaxing,

We've absolutely enjoyed our stay at B&B Itaca. Great location in the middle of Ortigia, park your car for free on the "mainland" and make the 5-10 minute walk into the city center. Giuseppe is a very kind host who will try to help you find the places of interest and really nice restaurants, although his english is limited :)... More

We stayed here for 3 days in July 2011. We found it to be utterly charming, grande, and more than we expected (we were coming from Paris, where we'd spent the same Euros for a one-room hovel.) No surprise. The host doesn't speak English, but he does his best to insure that guests have what they need. Our laptop converters... More

We spent quite a bit of time researching to find a reasonably-priced hotel in Ortigia. We were lucky to find B&B Itaca as the price was right and the room was one of the most comfortable of our 17-day trip to Sicily. It even had a small kitchen in addition to the king-sized bed and lots of storage space. When... More

B&B Itaca is located on the central square of Ortigia - Piazza Archimede. Our room overlooked medieval buildings and an early 20C statue and fountain - delightful! The room was bright, airy and spacious and the host, Guiseppe was very helpful as everyone says - though he's better in Italian than English. His restaurant recommendations were superb, especially the amazing... More

Good location in old section of Syracuse. Clean, large double room, good features. Near restaurants. Staff not available during most of day. Minimal/no English by staff. Breakfast at adjacent cafe was minimal i.e. one pastry and coffee.

I accidentally made our reservations for the wrong night! We showed up and noone was waiting on us. Luckily, the owner happened to be sitting at the cafe next door and he asked if we had reservations. We said yes and he looked confused. He took us reception and informed us our reservation did not start until the following night!... More

We ended a nine day stay in Sicily with two days at B&B Itaca and we loved it. The location is great. Our room was spacious and immaculate clean. The host, Giusseppe, is delightful – exceptionally helpful, warm and a great source of advice on everything local. We would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended.
