Built in the early 1900s, it seems to have been created to host people who appreciate its exclusive qualities. It stands out for its intimate atmosphere, typical of an environment deliberately kept intact (although perfectly in line with the latest trends), with all the flavor and charm of an ancient and prestigious house.
The rooms are equipped with all comforts: hairdryer, minibar, Smart TV, iron and ironing board, drying rack, kettle and coffee machine. A few steps from the structure, guests can relax on a small free beach.
Located a few minutes walk from the splendid island of Ortigia, therefore in the heart of the city. The building has a garden directly overlooking the sea and a few steps away guests can relax on a small free beach.

We had a great stay. The rooms were beautiful. We appreciated the attention to detail for guests: courtesy umbrellas, herbal teas, coffee and water available, an ironing board and iron and, above all, the kindness of Mrs. Luisa. The breakfast at the bar very close to the B&B was excellent. In short, five stars.

We spent two days at Gli Specchi di Archimede. The location is excellent for reaching both Ortigia and the archaeological area. The breakfast at the bar next door is excellent and very, very plentiful!

The room is not very big but has everything one needs, it is comfortable, modern and clean. The lady is very kind and helpful, as is the staff at the bar where we could enjoy breakfast, which had a good selection of both sweet and savory items. The location is strategic for visiting Ortigia and part of Syracuse; the quality/price ratio is very good. In conclusion, we were very satisfied with the choice we made.
