The staff was so friendly and capable. Old time luxury. Needs a bit of a facelift but it’s worth every penny (or euro). Beautiful view!

This is a small seafront hotel in the old town of Syracuse. The staff were very friendly and helpful, but perhaps its top feature is the breakfast room not on the ground but on th4 top floor, with excellent views both out to sea and over the old town.

Lovely hotel in best possible location
Lovely hotel in ideal location on Ortigia (Siracusa.) The staff is outstanding, especially Francesca. Breakfast is a bountiful buffet, on a terrace overlooking the sea - just beautiful. The hotel is elegant and comfortable. The bathrooms are particularly nice.

We were greeted on arrival by a staff member who provided free valet parking for our car, not a small thing given the available parking in Siracusa. We had a large, lovely room overlooking the sea. The included breakfast was very good.

Amazing Property. Best Location and Views in Ortigia. The property really needs to Brag about the Amazing Location with breathtaking views. Service was impeccable. The breakfast was top notch. The rooms were comfortable and nicely decorated with top quality appointments. This is a true standout.

The oceanfront location is fantastic, especially during a historical scale storm. The island is not big, all attractions are within walking distance. The rooftop deck is another plus for viewing the surroundings. The staff at reception are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is also impressive. I found the hotel itself becoming part of the scenery when searching thru Google picture of Ortigia island.

A great place to stay on Ortigia
Great location on Ortigia. Staff extremely helpful. Valeting parking if you request this in advance. Be aware parking on Ortigia is hard to come by so avail yourself of this ! The room was spotless, excellent Jacuzzi shower. Breakfast good quality and plentiful. There is a roof Terrace with amazing roof top views over the historical centre. We would certainly recommend

My first thing to say is, do not book this hotel, look elsewhere. We booked this hotel based on there being a pool and a roof terrace as are listed in the description and shown in the images - both of these are closed...I paid more expecting these and feel completely misled. The location is nice, so just book another hotel nearby where things aren’t falsely advertised. The breakfast isn’t good, and a huge concern is the cleanliness of the property. Go elsewhere.

The Hotel Livingston is a wonderful place. Right on the sea wall with spectacular views. Whilst the room we booked wasn't available, the room we had was extremely nice with a small balcony. The staff were terrific with special mention to Theressa, who resolved our room change issue, and Paulo who was fastidious in his arranging the limited parking. Thank you for a relaxing 3 night stay - we plan to return.

Had a water view room...amazing! Older hotel that had a few minor room issues, but overall a very pleasant stay. Great location. Some reviews speak of parking issues. We pulled up next to hotel and had a valet take the car to park within minutes. No additional cost for parking. Would stay again.

I could fish from the room, it was that close to sea. Nice sauna facilities. No good TV or internet in room. Good size room with balcony, superb bathroom. Disappointing food in Sicily...small shrimp, bland sauce and flavors, salty, fishy tasting seafood. My wife sent everything back ! She makes much better Italian food !

good location and very nice and upgraded. The reception staff should place the customer first and get off the computer or talking to other staff when a guest approaches (1-2 minutes is too long). Breakfast was good but they ran out of items and didn't replenish, even when we brought it to their attention. A bit noisy at night.

Well situated on Ortigia next t to the sea. Probably grand at one time, now tired but adequate. Our safe was broken, they said it required a technician, but we were there for 4 days and it remained broken. Parking was free and they parked for a us which was terrific. Breakfast was adequate. They could try to improve their rooftop to make it more usable.

This was our 5th visit to this wonderful hotel which is positioned close to the sea on the island of Ortigia. The rooms are large, the beds comfortable and the bathrooms well appointed. Our favourite room 9s 303 as it has a small balcony running down one side giving a nice view of the sea. Unusually for Ortigia, parking is available and the wonderful Paolo is always there to carry your bags and make sure your car is safely parked.

Breakfast was really bad - coffee was terrible. Overall cleanliness of the property very poor. Restaurant was not open neither was the spa. We booked the junior suite as a treat and were so disappointed we could hardly see out because the windows were so dirty! Will not be returning.
