Algila Ortigia Charme Hotel

Algila Ortigia Charme Hotel, located on the 14th century Mastra Rua street on the Sicilian island of Ortigia, has been faithfully restored into elegant accommodation. Original features have been conserved to breathe new life into this ancient noble residence.

The bedrooms have been refashioned to evoke the home’s original atmosphere, and feature authentic antique wooden furniture and fittings. The traditional allure is complemented by luxurious contemporary touches, such as spa baths and steam jets in some of the suites. All overlook a courtyard or the sea.

Algila Ortigia Charme Hotel offers free Wi-Fi, and a 24-hour front desk. Private parking can be arranged for a supplement.

The hotel’s restaurant makes for an atmospheric setting for dining, thanks to its old stone arches, wooden ceiling and antique chests, as well as its tasty seasonal Sicilian dishes.

There is a wealth of attractions to visit within a ten-minute walk of the hotel, such as the Diana and Aretusa Fountains, Piazza Archimede, Apollo’s Temple and the Duomo cathedral.
