Built in the early 1900s, this unique residence embodies the essence of charming hospitality, preserving the allure of a historic home while embracing contemporary comfort. The atmosphere is intimate and refined, a refuge to escape from daily stress. Located just a few steps from the historic island of Ortigia, in the vibrant heart of Syracuse, it offers easy access to an unmatched cultural heritage.

The property features a garden overlooking the sea, where guests can enjoy the sea breeze and the view of the small harbor. Just minutes away, a small public beach invites relaxation and contemplation of the crystalline waters. The rooms, carefully designed with attention to detail, are a corner of comfort and serenity, equipped with hairdryers, minibars, Smart TVs, irons, and coffee machines, ensuring a worry-free stay.

We spent two days at Gli Specchi di Archimede. The location is excellent for reaching both Ortigia and the archaeological area. The breakfast at the bar next door is excellent and very, very plentiful!

The room is not very big but has everything one needs, it is comfortable, modern and clean. The lady is very kind and helpful, as is the staff at the bar where we could enjoy breakfast, which had a good selection of both sweet and savory items. The location is strategic for visiting Ortigia and part of Syracuse; the quality/price ratio is very good. In conclusion, we were very satisfied with the choice we made.
