I loved Lanterne Magiche Ortigia. The staff were patient and kind and gave me advice for exploring Siracusa. If you need a taxi to the train station, they’ll book one for you! My suite was comfortable and clean, and I enjoyed the rooftop terrace on several evenings.

Thought it was fab. We were there off-season (Nov. 25) but still liked our stay. I even went for a swim at the bottom of the staircase leading down to the water a block from the hotel. We stayed in Room 9 which has an attached balcony with water views. Fantastic.

Beautiful Ortigia
A fabulous hotel in the center of beautiful Ortigia. We had a lovely room with a terrace view of the sea. The staff were friendly and helpful. Their recommendations for restaurants were outstanding. We loved the food at Clandestino and aLevante—truly works of art & taste.

The staff was very helpful, nice and accommodating. The room was large and comfortable. The location is very central. Parking was available but driving in Agrigento like in all the Sicilian cities was a challenge. The value was very good for the money spent.

Large, comfortable rooms. Wonderful breakfast. Perfect location. The hosts/staff are just absolutely impeccable!! Okay, lets get down to it. Ortigia is an amazing place to visit. Laterne Magiche is located on a gorgeous, quiet pedestrian street. It is just one block over from some magnificent cafes and restaurants. Ask your hosts about them, they will not steer you wrong. When there are lines of locals waiting to eat, then you know it's good. The island is very walkable and the hotel is perfectly situated. If you are visiting Siracusa, this is the place to stay!!
