Casa Cristina is perfectly situated in the historic center of Siracusa with a magnificent view of the square with the Tempio di Apollo. It is a very touristy place, so you are in the midst of the hustle and bustle of Siracusa. Still, we were not bothered by the noise outside. Once the doors to the balcony are closed, it is quiet with maybe some slight background noise. The room was spacious and clean (the mattress needs to be replaced though), the shower was good and Sergio is a very friendly host. The breakfast was typically Italian with primarily sweets and pastries, so not exactly our Dutch bread and eggs taste, but all in all I would very much recommend Casa Cristina.

The host (Sergio) was very attentive and provided all the relevant information, like where to park, how to use the keys. We felt very safe and secure. His home has a Nonna vibe, which is especially charming.

Wonderful b&b in the heart of Ortigia. Our room had a view over the Temple of Apollo! Very friendly owner who takes good care of you. It's an old building in the cemetery of town so there is some street noise at night, as you'd expect. To us, it was worth it for the unbeatable location.

In the beginning we came for two nights and decided to stay for longer. Super warm hospitality of owners. Sparkling clean. Comfortable sleeping beds. Apartment has special unique atmosphere, it is wonderful to be inside, explore this historical place, its tiles on the floor, ceiling. Enjoy breakfast and try marsala wine. Thank you, Sergio and Rita! We would be glad to come back

Charming, basic & very good value for money.

Very, very central. Great hosts. Very good value for money but basic, especially breakfast. Single use plastic cups at breakfast rather than glasses, so bad for the environment. The breakfast has tiny, tiny portions and the meat is mixed with the cheese and olives, so bad for vegetarians. There are so small chocolates and cake, plus some cheap bread and jam. Skip breakfast and go to Borderi / a cafe instead. The bed is comfy but very bouncy so not great if you partner moves a lot in the night.

Ottima posizione, host gentilissimo e tutto come descritto. Se proprio si vuole trovare il pelo nell'uovo: il letto matrimoniale e formato da due lettini singoli. Esperienza eccezionale.

Ma la posizione è fantastica, la camera ha una vista direttamente sul Tempio di Apollo. A piedi è possibile raggiungere tutti i punti di interesse più importanti di Siracusa. Lost è stato super gentile introducendoci anche le attrazioni da vedere al nostro arrivo e rendendosi disponibile a qualsiasi necessità. Quindi consigliatissimo, anche per il prezzo.

Detta härliga BnB ligger mitt Gamla stan och är otroligt mysigt. Frukosten som ingår är italiensk, dvs skorpor, marmelad, kaka och kaffe. Paret som har den är charmiga, hjälpsamma och väldigt gulliga. Som sagt, mitt inne i stan med närhet till allt. Väl värt ett besök,

Great location, but...

Great location. Pleasant, helpful host. But the room, although large and well furnished, was very cold. Minimal heat early morning and at night, which could not be controlled from the room. Basic pre packaged breakfast. Some traffic and construction noise, along with the room temperature, detracted from our stay.
