Stayed Jun 21, 2025A very characterful property bedecked with artistic reminders of the owners; very convenient for a stay in Syracuse and with a local delicatessen/ supermarket a few hundred meters away . the stairs to the roof garden are a bit steep but worth the climb and the shower was small for someone of 110+ kilos but otherwise perfect. Please note that the description fails to mention that they have air conditioning in the living room and a fan in the bedroom which was essntial during the heatwave.

Stayed Apr 28, 2025If you prefer to stay in a place that genuinely feels lived in versus a sterile hotel room you would enjoy staying here. It’s a bohemian atmosphere filled with art and located in a residential neighborhood with the sounds of families nearby

Stayed Mar 24, 2025We liked everything about this place - the narrow alley walkway lined with plants, the location - close to most everything, the apartment itself with a very well stocked pantry, art everywhere, a charming, plant filled roof top terrace. And Marco, the host manager was extremely helpful. We felt so fortunate to experience life in Ortigia there for a few days.

Stayed Sep 30, 2024We loved our stay at Casa Sophia--as others have mentioned, it has a sweet quirkyness to it. We enjoyed dinner on the terrace and loved the location--so close to everything you want to see and experience. The checkin and checkout process was super easy. We highly recommend this property.

Stayed Mar 28, 2022The property is right in the middle of the historic Ortigia Island in Siracusa and near all the sites. It is beautifully arranged and has lovely personal touches, even a bit quirky! There is a roof terrace with planting and steep steps, but as it was fairly cool on our visit we weren’t able to make best use of it. The welcome was outstanding and friendly and helpful, and they kept in touch with us during our stay. I thoroughly recommend this property.

Stayed Oct 7, 2019It was an old, quirky and charming apartment full of character and interesting pictures and objects. This made it feel cosy and lived in, like you were staying in someone’s home. We had a very helpful check in with tips and advice on where to visit and eat out. The apartment was in a great location, down some back streets, but near shops and cafés. Ortigia was a great place to stay, packed with history and great places to eat. Highly recommend!
