Rossana, you are as delightful as your welcoming property. Unfortunately I came to Syracuse because of an unresolved health problem, but what will remain in my memory is your enthusiasm, your cheerfulness and your great helpfulness. I recommend it to everyone.

I had a wonderful stay at this B&B and can only recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect mix of comfort, hospitality and tranquility. The property is cared for down to the smallest details, very clean and tastefully furnished, creating a warm and relaxing atmosphere from the first moment. Breakfast was a real treat: plentiful items served with kindness and attention. Mrs. Rossana was extremely helpful and always smiling. The location is ideal, quiet but at the same time convenient for reaching the main points of interest in the area.

This property has the best host I've ever encountered. I've been to many places in Greece, Europe, and the United States, where I am a resident, as well as to many Caribbean islands. This host named Rosanna was the best.

silvia

A stellar Bed and Breakfast, starting from Rossana, the owner, to the cleanliness of the structure. Breakfast personally prepared by her every morning. On the last day, a tray of typical sweets and Sicilian gadgets kindly offered... and excuse me if it's small. Our point of reference in the area. I highly recommend it.

stayed from 05/31/2024 to 06/02/2024

The answer from the host:
Grazie, sono contenta che vi siete trovati bene. Spero di potervi ospitare ancora. Alla prossima.

andrea

The apartment is located in the city center. Parking with the car is possible within the residential complex. The hostess, Rossana, is very kind, helpful and provides her guests with useful tips. She prepares breakfast daily for the guests and personally takes care of the cleanliness and order of the apartments. The pictures speak for themselves. I can only recommend it. 5 stars for everything. Thank you Rossana.

nilde

I highly recommend this property, Rossana is a magnificent host attentive and caring. We felt like family also because we had breakfast in her kitchen and what a breakfast, there was everything. A mention to her almond granita. PS: In front there is the Coop with the salami maker Roberto who makes super sandwiches. Another positive note is the car parking and a few minutes by car you can reach Ortigia.

The Dolce Sorriso B&B is brand new and well maintained. Clean and comfortable. The owner, Rossana, is a very pleasant, kind, and welcoming person; with the guests she is very precise, attentive to details, discreet and at the same time available for any need. The B&B's location is excellent, easily accessible from the highway, and close to the main attractions of Syracuse (Greek theater, Neapolis, Sanctuary of the Madonna of Tears, the catacombs, the archaeological museum, etc...). Another noteworthy aspect is that the structure is located a short distance from the bus stop (free!) that takes you to Ortigia. Very convenient, it operates from Monday to Saturday from 5:00 pm to 2:00 am and on Sunday from 8:00 am to 2:00 am. The breakfast is also really appreciable, very rich and tasty: definitely try the almond granita, accompanied by the inevitable brioche with "tuppo"! Recommended!
