Convenient, clean and comfortable though a little soulless and hostel-like. The breakfast room was very busy and quite noisy. Beautifully located for exploring Ortigia on foot. Short stroll to the waterfront or the many lovely shops. Nice to have a small balcony and a sea view. Good restaurants nearby.

Excellent location, easy to find (on foot only, can park in Talete car park then walk 10 mins). Check in easy, staff friendly, offered good advice on local area. Room functional. A bit run down, some sockets not working, beds variable comfortable (main bed too soft). Bathroom also not glamorous but fully functional, plenty of hot water for shower etc.. Breakfast basic affair but staff friendly and offered hot drink repeats etc Overall a very well located, perfectly reasonable base for Ortigia, devoid of glamour, but makes up for it in functionality and convenience

Had a warm welcome from Maison Ortigia, and lots of help with parking and logistics. Very smooth experience to park in the old town with their help, easy check-in, nice clean room and fabulous location. Not a 5* hotel, but for a B&B a truly excellent experience. Thanks to the team for a lovely stay.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location is truly the only positive thing I can say about this place. The building has other residences, and there is a strong smell of smoke throughout. The walls are extremely thin — you can clearly hear people in the rooms around you. The bed did not have a fitted sheet, only a top sheet, which exposed a very dirty mattress. The bed and pillows were extremely uncomfortable, and overall the room did not feel clean. I would not recommend staying here.

Good beach and other swimming spots, with Clearwater and beautiful scenery, unique to this area of Sicily. Sunset is just beautiful, old castles, and forts, if that is something you like! A lot of food options. You can check out the whole island pretty much in a day by just walking. Beware of parking constraints. We paid €20 for paid parking for one night! I highly recommend secure paid parking if you’re driving through. Hotel was simple, a good value. Breakfast was good.

Don’t waste your money, this hotel is absolute garbage and the customer service is horrendous. I could not possibly recommend it any less. We had booked 2 rooms for four people in late April 2026, when we arrived in the early afternoon, we realized that our bathroom was dirty and hairs all over the bathroom tiles and had a very bad smell came from bathroom. We agreed in a friendly manner with the reception that they would fix it while we went out for some food. When we came back in the evening, they had not cleaned the room, we wanted to leave, but it was late in the evening so we had no other choice but to stay and all night we had to open the windows to ventilate the room due to smell coming from bathroom. We complained at check out the next morning, but was met with very arrogant attitude young woman and a man. Cleanliness: towels and sheets are stained, dirty and smell musty, toilet seat that moves continuously; broken toilet paper holder, broken or defective shower door and consequently water leaks onto the floor with every shower The only positive note is that it is 10 minute’s walk to central, I chose this place for the location, and that's the only plus

the location is fantastic however, be warned, there is no parking and if you manage to get a spot under ground it is 20Euro/day. The hotel room was big and the air conditioning made it cool. We had a kitchen and bathroom which were spacious. There was an awful smell on our floor which we commented on but weren't able to change rooms/floors.

Had the most sickening and terrible smell in our room. We were told that Ortigia has trouble with their drainage system, but we had a relative staying in another room and he had no bad smells. We were told they would have somebody check the problem and when we returned that afternoon we found they had put some "blue Loo" freshener/ dye into the toilet bowl, but obviously that was gone on the first flush. As they were fully booked they could not move us to another room. Made for a very unpleasant stay. .

Unappealing building with small, creaky lift to 3rd floor Reception. We had booked a deluxe room with balcony with a view of adjacent historic buildings, but we were allocated a small, plain standard room with a grim view of a grimy small interior courtyard with barred windows opposite . Resulting complaint satisfactorily resolved by Expedia. Location was excellent- all historic sites were within a short distance, together with bars and restaurants. Breakfast adequate, with cold eggs and an unreliable coffee machine. A machine nearby Reception was available for 2 Euros dispensing water, beer and soft drinks. For those with a hire car, streets are very narrow and parking is very limited.

This is basically holiday apartments, rather than a Hotel. The location is convenient in the historic heart of the city (although driving/parking would be a nightmare), but the rooms are scattered around a fairly unappealing modern block with a particularly creaky lift giving access to the tine Reception on the 3rd floor. We had booked and paid for a Deluxe double room with balcony for 4 nights, but on arrival were told that no such rooms were available, which the Manager blamed on Expedia not passing on our request and payment. Our standard room was very basic, with a dreadful view of a grimy interior courtyard with a barred window opposite. The included breakfast was also basic with an unreliable coffee machine, but acceptable. A machine dispensing water, soft drinks and beers (2 Euros) is also available. In summary, "Maison Ortigia" scores on location, but little else, and its failure to honour our Deluxe room booking is now the subject of a formal complaint.

Personale molto gentile e disponibile anche se la reception c'è solo in determinati orari. Posizione eccellente proprio al centro di Ortigia. La nostra camera avrebbe avuto bisogno di essere rinnovata sia nell'arredamento che soprattutto nel bagno perchè la doccia non offriva temperatura costante. Tuttavia considerando l'abbondante colazione consiglierei la struttura per l'ottimo rapporto qualita/prezzo.
