The bathroom had a leak bubbling up from beneath the tile floor and your feet got wet if you went in there. We told someone and they did nothing to solve it. The wifi was very poor. And, the beach they show is miles away and closed for the season.

Hotel is very good and the staff and amenities are excellent. Great rooftop restaurant and bar with a great view. Our room was rather small and the bathroom was barely manageable because it was so small and they crammed in the bidet and shower. But, that is probably our fault as we booked a basic room. The wifi also was very weak and not effective most of the time. Breakfast was very good and parking was very convenient.

Okay but not sure about 5 star

Nice view for breakfast, but besides that it wasn’t really a 5 star hotel, the room was very small for the cost, the bed wasn’t very comfortable and the breakfast wasn’t the best, for a 5 star hotel. Location is great and the staff were lovely though.

Beautiful hotel right on the waterfront with parking (paid) just in front. Excellent service and breakfasts. Room elegant with high ceilings but would benefit from air conditioning for the summer months. Easy walking to seafront and around Ortigia.
