Excellent

Slightly stressful to drop of luggage - one way alley - but otherwise great stay.
If you are in a shoulder season trip, the HVAC is centrally controlled, so you will have to adjust to Sicilian temperature preferences ( i.e. on the warmer side).

Liked: Room comfort
Convenient location in Ortigia. Room was average size for the location and price. Included breakfast was typical. Sheets and pillowcase were stained, but were changed the next day. Wifi didn't work for most of our stay.
We booked a “Superior” room as it cost only a few extra Euros/night but ended up with a standard room (smaller and zero view).
They gave us a discount on departure but make sure you get the Superior if you book Superior. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Well managing the logistics of arrival when driving a car, good job in coordinating in advance the parking and valet service. The breakfast was very good and the location of the place superb
Overall a charming and very welcoming little hotel. The breakfast was a simple but adequate one. No tea/coffee making facilities in the room was a bit unusual. Wi-Fi was very poor. Shower room was basic. That’s the main negatives dealt with. Overall, it’s a beautiful old building which is perfectly situated right in the middle of Ortigia. Everything is within easy walking distance (if you don’t lose your bearings!!) and given its rating as a three star hotel, it’s fair value for money. I expect we will return to Ortigia sometime and would be quite happy to make Hotel Gargallo our base once again.
