We had a large, clean room. The staff was consistently helpful. The breakfast was outstanding. For those arriving by train or bus, it is an easy, under-10-minute walk away, and it is another easy, under-10-minute walk to Ortigia (and just a bit more than ten minutes back up to the archeological sites.

Great location 5-10 minute walk to Ortagia and train station. 25 minute walk to Archeological Park. Hotel was a complete surprise with a couple of terraces to sit out on, courtyard style. On the main road but rooms at back of hotel so very quiet. Continental breakfast with plenty of choice.

Everything is fine except the WIFI

Quite a bit of noise from the courtyard from other guests, most of the time.

Central location, clean and comfortable stay, friendly staff, superb breakfast

Nice couple who runs the B&B Hotel in a central location in town. There are restaurants in the main shopping street a few steps away and it's a10/15minute walk to the old town center. On and off with the car is ok and a municipal parking is available for overnight parking, 5 minutes walk from the hotel.

A family house converted to small hotel about 20 years ago. High decorated ceilings in the house, bedrooms are in a newer wing. Very clean all through, very friendly staff especially Annaliese(?), very helpful all round. Hotel in on the main road towards the island of Ortigia, about 400 metres away which is the old part of the city full of narrow street and alleys with dozens of cafes and restaurants and the usual gift/souvenir shops. Everybody enjoying themselves and no-one pushy which was nice. Great city and excellent hotel in just the right location.

Nice, clean and friendly staff. Good breakfast by Italien standard.

A good budget hotel that provides a sound overnight experience but no more. The only peculiarity was breakfast started at 8 because that was when the staff arrived back at work which meant no one was at the desk earlier than 8. I had to leave the key in the room when I left before 8. The main door was also shut at 8 in the evening although you could let yourself back into the hotel with a key. But I liked the fact that unlike a lot of these small budget hotels, Piccolo had a courtyard where you could relax on sofas rather than have to sit in your room if you didn't want to go out every night. Staff OK, and breakfast the usual passable fare you always get from this type of budget hotel.

Near the littel beach de Ortigia but you have too take a bus to get to a real beach i

This hotel is in a great location for visiting the Greek ruins and old, historic centre. There is also shopping and free street parking nearby. The staff were very kind and helpful, and it was lovely to eat our breakfast out on the pretty terrace.

This hotel is situated in a hystoric palace, it's so suggestive. The position is strategic, because it's near Ortigia and near the train station. The zone where is the hotel is central and quiet. The staff is very kind and professional. I hope to return here as soon as possible.

A nice old hotel central to all the sights and restaurants with a cheap (€5), delicious breakfast. You can relax in the cooler central courtyard. My only critiscism is that it is difficult to find a free parking spot close to the hotel, otherwise it's a great place to stay.

A quiet hotel very close to Ortigia. Reasonably priced rooms for a great location. Lovely helpful staff and nice breakfast served in elegant dining room. Free Wifi with excellent signal. Rooms off courtyard are quiet with a seating area.

The Hotel was good value for the money .. Quiet spacious and within a 500metere safe walk of the main tourist areas ..

Siracusa is a very popular town for tourists so you're not going to get the same value for money here as elsewhere. The hotel is well located just 5 minutes outside the old island. Unfortunately, there's no acoustic separation between rooms beyond the plaster board. I could hear furniture moving, footsteps, toilets flushing, etc. The room was a little dated, especially the bathroom.

Great stay. Great location. Quiet and cool air con.

Ortigia is lovely to walk, lots of twisting narrow streets with little Café bars and Trattatoria. The famous Puppet theatre is among the lanes and is great fun, book a show. Everyone seems friendly and lots of people have some English. There's a great food market and public transport is easy to use. Bus and Rail terminal is ten minutes walk from the hotel. A trip the the Catacomba di Santa Lucia was easy and interesting with a quided tour. The Parc Arciological was a waste of 10 euros (each) the Greek theatre being converted into a modern theatre with lighting banks, modern staging and the original seating covered with temporary wooden seats. The Tomb of Archimedes was inaccessible as was much of the site. You couldn't really wonder about. Great boat trip across the bay and round the caves.

Perfect small hotel. Nice locationBreakfast was unbelievably good with huge selection of meats and pastries. Very tastefull decor .very helpful staff.

Stayed in Standard Double room. Bed was actually Queen size by Australian standards. Plenty of room for two. Bathroom facilities were fine. Only downside was we had 30deg days and the AC did not cope. Breakfast had good menu range. Good WiFi signal. Staff were helpful. Several pleasant outside sitting areas. Great location for walking around old city of Ortygia. To get there on public transport it's an easy 10 minute walk from bus terminus or central train station. Overall we thought this was excellent value for money.

The hotel is charming. It is a beautiful old building and has lots of character. It is well situated to be able to walk to the roman and greek ruins and also to Ortygia. The room was spotless - although the fittings in the bathroom are a little tired (which does not detract from the overall experience) and the owners were very helpful and charming. We would happily stay here again.

A charming hotel, quiet and very welcoming; nice breakfast. Rooms very clean. We liked the pot plants on the balcony.

I enjoyed my 4 night stay at Casa Mia, which is very good value. It is convenient for exploring Ortigia (a 10 min walk to the East), the ruins of Neapolis (a 20 min walk or easy bus journey to the North) and for making day trips by train from the rail/bus stations which are a 5 minute walk to the West. Although on a main road, the rooms all face internal courtyards and my room was very quiet. My room (for single use) was in fact a double on the first floor. It was large, with a high ceiling, and a long narrow bathroom (with not much space to put things). Furnished with a traditional wooden wardrobe and an ornate and impressive bed headboard, there was disappointingly no chair in the room, nor any desk or table at which one could write (although there were 2 circular bedside tables). The double bed comprised 2 single mattresses on a metal frame which clanked a bit whenever I turned. The room got very warm: there was an air conditioning unit which was only moderately effective when it worked, and it broke down on my second day. I reported it and it was fixed but then it broke down again. It was comfortable sleeping with the window open, but this would have been a bigger problem in the summer. There was an external shaded terrace with tables and chairs which I used to write etc. I almost gave a '5' rating overall, but the minor room problems narrowly tipped it to a 4. I recommend day trips by train to the wonderful baroque cities of Noto and Ragusa.

Great location, well run very welcoming B&B. Very good service, we had an apartment. Great restaurant nearby La Spigola, a must for the best meal & great value. Lovely local lavanderia helped us out, run by American couple. Close to Ortigia and about 20 mins easy walk to ruins north of town. A must stay B&B. Highly recommended.......Massive bathroom!!

Good location, very close to the Ortygia area (10 min walking distance). In-room free Wi-fi was very good - fast and reliable. But the toilet was too old and not properly cleaned so that smelt a bit.

pros - very convenient; short walk from the bus terminal - about 5 min. Walkable to the archeological area (amphitheatre and ruins) - about 20 min, and to the main town, Ortygia - about 10 min. Spacious room. Lovely character to the place; breakfast can be inside or on the terrace. Computer with internet access available for guests to use. Lovely staff. cons - bathroom has modern facilities but feels a little dated. Would definitely recommend staying there.

The price is reasonable and can't wait to go back
