I loved everything about this property! Everything was perfect. The hotel is beautiful as are the rooms. The staff couldn't be more gracious. We truly enjoyed our stay and would happily stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is perfectly clean with beautiful furnishings, flooring, et cetera. There is no lift which is a major negative. The location is perfect practically attached to the duomo and on the main square. The breakfast buffet was one of the smaller ones I've seen in Italy or Sicily. The staff was helpful and friendly enough perhaps a little bit aloof. My classic room had no view and I looked into a tiny unkept courtyard, although there was a banana tree out there. The AC fan had an annoying sound like there was a wind storm going on outside. So a clean beautiful building and rooms but I found it a little sterile and the negatives of no lift and light breakfast would cause me to choose a different place next time. As for the view, other rooms had balconies on the Piazza so that would be good, but my room felt too isolated and was at the top of 3 flights of stairs straight up, then you had to walk down a few additional stairs to reach the door. This is just my honest report of the plusses and minuses.

Dear Edward, thank you for expressing your opinion. The hotel, as you may have understood, is made up of 2 historic buildings and this means that one side of the hotel cannot be equipped with an elevator but has access to the rooms only by stairs. But this is a characteristic of the palace and identifies its historicity. For the rest, we will take into account your suggestions that will help us to improve the services we offer. We look forward to having you as a guest again.The Management

Nina

Great location- very difficult to access.
Hotel Roma is very difficult to find, but it’s in a great location in the city. The only way to visit with a car is really to use their valet service which is 30 Euros per day. The rooms are small for the cost, but clean and comfortable. The staff is friendly, but slow to respond to requests (safe malfunctioned in room, bath towels were not left after cleaning). breakfast was excellent, but it’s difficult to get service for coffee (yes, multiple America cups) on the patio. The dinner menu is very limited, and unless you plan to order dinner, expect some push back for having a drink on the patio, regardless of the time. Dinner menu is quite limited, but there are so many other options that it’s not an issue.

Dear Nina, a hotel like ours located in the historic center of Syracuse, certainly has some difficulty to reach it, but it is precisely the location that leaves our guests speechless, since the hotel is attached to the Cathedral of Syracuse. Thank you for expressing your opinion and we take your words into account to improve our services. We hope to have you again as a guest.The Management

Staff went above and beyond. Parking - valet for 30 euros a day, which was a great price considering. Very hard to drive to hotel through tiny streets and Google Maps lead us astray. Staff packed us a breakfast for our early departure. Comfy room and bed.

Stu

A beautiful thoroughly modernized hotel in an older structure at the heart of Ortigia, steps away from the Piazza del Duomo. No more than 10 minutes walk to anywhere on the historic end of the island, and mostly closer. We had a 3rd floor east-facing room with a view over the rooftops of bits of the nearby ocean; sunrise photos of the roofs and skyline were great, albeit with a talker building blocking the sun for a bit until it rose higher. Top floor - 4 would have a better view but probably still blocked.

Hotel Roma in Siracusa is top shelf; This hotel was the best find on our Italia trip. In the centre of Siracusa Ortigia Hotel Roma is steps away from all things Ortigia, Apollo’s Temple, Statue of Diana, Duomo & Cathederal and the Castle Fortress on the Island’s point. Siracusa & Siracusa harbour are close and easily walkable - for the more challenging, walk to the archeological park Greco ruins. Hotel Roma will take care of your needs; staff are terrific and the facility outstanding.

Fantastic hotel - great staff & excellent location
We had an outstanding stay at Hotel Roma during our visit to Siracusa. The staff went above in beyond by contacting us ahead of time to arrange transportation to the hotel. The hotel restaurant was fantastic with seating out on the plaza for people watching and enjoying the surroundings. The room was perfect for my wife, son & me - with a separate bedroom area for my son to sleep as opposed to sharing the same bedroom space with mom & dad. The location is also right in the heart of historic Siracusa so getting anywhere was convenient. Would definitely stay here again given the chance.

This hotel is gorgeous
This hotel is spectacular in every way, the rooms are beautiful, the staff is super friendly, everything is about as perfect as it could be. It’s a little tricky if you have a car, because the street that the hotel is located, says pedestrians only. But I parked the car, went and talked to the hotel staff, they said, just bring the car down the street and it was permitted for hotel guests. So I used the valet parking service and had no issues at all.

Our rental car booking didnt work out and we called hotel late and last minute and sent us their shuttle right away to pick us up from airport.
