"Built in the early 1800s in liberty style, the Grand Hotel Ortigia, located on the island of Ortigia, overlooks the picturesque and historic Syracuse harbor." Full review
"An elegant, fantasy-inspired design prevails at this venerable institution, which has enjoyed a prime position on the Porto Grande at the base of Ortygia since 1890." Full review

"Originally built in 1905, this is the best located hotel in Syracuse, with a very appealing mix of modernity and old-world charm" Full review
