We are Andrea and Maria Giovanna, a young couple with a 14 year old daughter, Elsa, from whom our business, Elsa d'Ortigia , takes its name. Our experience in the tourism industry began about 13 years ago when, thanks to friends who ran a B&B, we started offering our support and discovered our passion for this field. Since then, tourism has become more than just a profession for us it is a true passion. Our philosophy is based on the joy of meeting people from all over the world and connecting with different cultures. Being sociable people, we love building genuine and lasting relationships. Our motto is: Arrive as guests, leave as friends.

Our guesthouse is equipped with all the comforts to ensure a pleasant and relaxing stay. The property features four rooms, each with a private bathroom. The spacious showers are designed to provide a comfortable experience, thanks to the optimal water pressure ensured by the presence of a water pump. All rooms have balconies overlooking the main street and are carefully furnished, featuring an independent air conditioning and heating system for maximum comfort in every season. Guests also have access to two common areas: a fully equipped kitchen and a cozy lounge, perfect for relaxing and socializing. Our guesthouse is located on the second floor of a charming three-story building, offering a quiet and private atmosphere—ideal for a rejuvenating break in the heart of the city.

Our hotel is located in the heart of Ortigia, the historic island of Syracuse, one of the gems of the Mediterranean. The centre offers unmissable monuments such as the Cathedral, the Fountain of Arethusa and the Maniace Castle. Piazza del Duomo, the seafront promenade and the local cuisine based on fresh fish complete a unique experience where history, culture and natural beauty meet.
