The Domus Mariae Albergo was an exceptional find! The staff was friendly and extremely helpful in finding parking (an issue in Ortigia), recommending sites to see as well as authentic restaurants patronized by the locals. The room was clean, the linens crisp and bathroom well appointed. We will stay here again when next in Siracusa!

Beautiful ocean view, very clean and spaciousroom! Easy to drive to, but also close to the town center. Most helpful staff! Thank you!

I had a lovely stay at Domus Mariae, the hotel is charming and conveniently located. Be sure to book a room facing the sea, the view was spectacular. Cinzia was an extremely welcoming and accommodating host. Overall I highly recommend a stay here.

Great location, but very average accommodation. The bed was comfortable, but there were no real amenities like coffee or water available in the rooms.

Beautiful hotel with a great staff. Be sure to book a room in the water side

Very nice staff. Comfortable and clean rooms. Lovely ocean view.

Lovely staff. Great view. Good location.

Nice location and good sized room. The staff were kind and helpful. I didnt take the breakfast so can not comment on that but there are lots of lovely places to take good breakfast close by. My room could have been cleaner and I informed the staff so hopefully they will ensure it is better in the future.

The shower was terrible. Too small like a phone booth. Drain was slow. Floor in bedroom was not clean. Sand and hair on the floor. Cat or cats live in the office area . Not good for someone with allergies.

Just left a wonderful stay in Ortigia. The hotel was amazing! Friendly, sweet staff.. very helpful. The room was quiet, clean with a little balcony. The entire island is walkable in every direction. 15 mins max from one side to the other. 3 mins from fresh food market for fresh spices, seafood, veggies and fruit, and much much more. Restaurant choices are endless… and all authentic and marvelous. You will love your stay!

On hotels.com website, they said they has elevator. But they don't. The front desk is on 2nd FL and our room was on 4th FL. The staircases are narrow and slippery. The ceiling above the staircases are low and must bend head to pass. Otegia is a small island. This hotel is far from all the atractions and restaurants. Its name include doumo. I thought it must be very close to catherdral. But it is quite a walk. The amenities in the room is very basic, nearly to none.

Balcony view inimitable.

Staff was very accommodating. Quieter area. Older rooms needs updating but comfortable.

The staff was so helpful, the location was quiet and convenient to restaurants and sites. The room was very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend.

Great hotel, perfect location. Swimming spot right outside in ocean with safety rocks to keep large sea life out. Lovely views. Friendly staff, comfortable beds and nice price. Don't miss this gem.

Great hospitality. Very clean and staff very helpful. Enjoyed our stay very much.

Very helful and friendly staff, good location with a lovely sea view room. Breakfast is taken in the partner hotel opposite, which was nice. Parking is available in the nearby car park (very difficult to enter)

This was the nicest place we stayed in Sicily. The staff was absolutely the friendliest and best. They gave us free complimentary breakfast each day. Make sure to ask for an ocean-view room with balcony - absolutely stunning vistas, and you can go out and swim in the crystal-clear warm blue waters or sun on the rocks. Hotel is in Ortigia, the trendy island that was ancient Syracuse, walking distance to wonderful restaurants, shops, outdoor cafes, gelato, and all the important archeological sites of Syracuse. This place was a gem! Parking was available nearby. One small warning: no elevator, and rooms are up two or three flights of stairs, but they carry luggage up stairs to you room for free. They also help with getting a shuttle or cab, tour reservations and recommendations. They even have free bicycles you can use to explore the city.

Close to the shore.
