Great stay, great location, & great staff! They were very helpful

Breakfast was amazing and the staff was absolutely lovely

The staff were incredibly warm, friendly and very helpful (including helping to carry luggage up the stairs!), b/c there is no lift. We were very disappointed that there was no simple coffee maker in the rooms to start our day (especially considering the caliber of the hotel) - this is considered a very basic standard these days even in 2 star hotels. In room #205, the drain in the shower was clogged and water backed up while showering. The toilet seat was also loose or broken and tilted one way or another when sat on. The glass doors on the showers are also very awkward to open and get in and out of the shower. That said, the hotel is very conveniently located to many sites and the historic center, as well as near the sea.

The hotel felt a bit dated, with old rugs, artificial plants, and a lot of religious decor. We didn’t love having to leave our key at the front desk every time we went out. There were numerous small notes around the room, but they weren’t particularly helpful—clearer instructions (like which switch controls the bathroom light) would have been much more useful. So many switches but none in the bathroom. The TV didn’t work and was confusing to operate, with two remotes that didn’t seem functional. The windows were set very high, making it difficult to enjoy the sea view, especially for someone shorter like myself. On a positive note, the bed was comfortable.

The hotel location is extremely close to everything, but what makes the hotel exceptional is the front desk receptionist Cinzia. She is what gives the hotel its beauty. Will definitely come back

Awesome boutique hotel with cats and nuns—great views of the sea from some rooms. If you’re looking for a 3-star hotel in a superb location with very kind staff, you can’t go wrong here!

I was welcomed so warmly. Great staff who went out of their way to make it a great stay. The room was a bit old, the shower was a bit unusual, but it was very charming and the view out over the water was amazing! Close to everything but also off to the side to be quiet enough. Would definitely recommend

Highly recommend this cozy waterfront property. The staff made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. We received beautiful upgraded seaview rooms. The rooms were clean and modern with 24 hr front desk attendants. If you are travelling solo, you will feel very safe here. Shout out to Cinzia! She recommended local restaurants, all of which were excellent. Parking is available at a private parking garage nearby for €25.00/day which includes valet pick up and drop off. We will not hesitate to book this hotel on our next trip to Ortigia.

Beautiful Otigia! Most helpful staff!

Breakfast was fresh and the service was wonderfully. My balcony over looked the sea. They helped me with my bags and were very friendly. They spoke English which helped a lot.

Myself and my girlfriend stayed her for a short (a few days) trip in Ortigia, and the experience was great. The location is amazing, right on the beachfront near everything, and the staff go above and beyond. We weren't the easiest guests im sure, we had many small, but persistent requests and the staff were consistently friendly, and more than happy to meet our requests with grace and enthusiasm. Our stay in Ortigia was enhanced by the staff at the Dorus Mariae Albergo. I can't comment on breakfast, as we opted to have brunch at a nearby Bistro, but this is in no way a comment on the breakfasts at the hotel; this is simply how we like to holiday. Overall, a wonderful experience here, with wonderful staff in an absolutely beautiful location.

Lovely staff and unbeatable location!

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.
