Great location. Our room had 2 small balconies with one of them looking down on the Temple of Apollo ruins. We liked the room which was quite spacious with high ceilings and the bed was comfortable. The couple that owns the place were very nice and always willing to help. There is a community kitchen available for use. The continental breakfast was all set up and ready to go on a community dining room table. We've seen all kinds of breakfasts during our travels and this one falls in to the adequate but not special category because less options were provided than some others we have encountered.

The breakfast on the first day leaned towards the sweeter Italian-style breakfast and was a little too sweet for us. They adjusted and on subsequent days, we were served more savory items such as hard-boiled eggs, cheese, salami, and sun-dried tomatoes which were very good. My advice is to state your preferences when you get there, they are happy to accommodate.

Best location to visit Ortigia. As we are in our 70's everything was within walking distance, even the busstop is right across the road. If you are looking for an authentic Sicilian experience Casa Cristina is the place to stay. Its decor is retro Sicilian with some modern amenities like a private bathroom an aircon and a lift to the 2nd floor where the B&B is located. Don't expect a modern touristy establishment, this is the real thing. The breakfast is sweet Italian. The hosts are warm and wellcoming with a smile and a hug. We thoroughly enjoyed our 4 days at Casa Cristina.

Wish we could stay longer. Ortigia is beautifull and spotlessly clean

The location is phenomenal, absolutely in front of the Temple of Apollo, providing an incredible aerial view of the monument and a fantastic night view, it also provides a very beautiful small view of the sea. I loved the fact that it was very close to everything on the island and at the same time not far from the train and bus station. The space is very cozy and beautiful, classic old and well maintained. The breakfast is excellent, varied and the host is very friendly, helpful and friendly.

As it is in the center of the island and in front of one of the main tourist attractions, it is a little noisy at night.

The location is amazing although also loud in the evening, but it's double glazed window/ door so if you keep the door closed, you can try to sleep, however no air. Wonderful view over the Apollo temple and close to walk to ortigia or train/ bus station. Continental breakfast is included however it's literally outside your room, so it can be a bit loud in the morning, there's a kitchen adjacent with a fridge you can make use of, which is great.

The beds are small but comfortable mattresses, we booked a room with a double bed but it wasn't available - the owners were very apologetic and overall accommodating, also with the suitcases we could leave till late afternoon after checkout, but make sure you specify your bed needs when booking.

I had a beautiful room overlooking the Temple of Hercules which is in a lively piazza. Probably the best location in Ortigia. From the balcony you get an 180 degree view of the sea. It’s an old fashioned apartment with antique furniture. My room had old black and white tiles on the floor, like a Vermeer painting. The ceiling was very high with painted decorative garlands of flowers. Tall windows with shutters to keep out the light and noise outside, a lovely old desk to work on, soft double bed. The room was cleaned every day and fresh towels were given. The bathroom is en suite. Guests can also use the kitchen to cook and make their own meals. You are given your own shelf in the fridge to keep food and water. There is a lift the apartment which is on the second floor. It is a safe, central area. A short walk to the sea and bars where you can sit and watch the world go by.

The breakfast is rather thin and you would have to make your own tea or coffee. I didn’t realise there was cereal. There are often home made cakes in addition to a fruit yoghurt, fruit juice, bread, biscuits, crisp bread, and a chocolate sweet. But it is all very charming.

Casa Cristina is the perfect location- right over the small bridge connecting Siracusa to beautiful Ortigia. Sergio, the proprietor is a gem- kind, helpful, friendly and generous. He left us a breakfast bag because we were leaving so early. Very happy with our stay + there is an elevator

Can’t think of anything

The location was outstanding! Amazing views from two balconies of the sea and the ruins! Room was spacious with a beautiful historic feel. Breakfast was sufficient with choices of cereal, croissant, cake or the like. A nice bonus with an olive assortment. Kitchen and refrigerator was available at any time. Host lived nearby.

The location of Casa Christina on Ortigia was excellent. It was in the heart of the sights, near the market and many restaurant options. Also an easy walk to the bus and train stations. Sergio was a welcoming host and ensured I was comfortable.

Location front of piazza , I think this town it’s self almost all over is good location already , you can walk all over easily all most everywhere,

So poor breakfast , we went out for having coffee and flesh breakfast, We had reservations for two bed already pay for full price before we checkin, they had asked for extra charge for second bed, when we were there no no we had paid enough,

The owners were delightful. The breakfast was simple but a guest has full access to the kitchen and designated space in the refrigerator. The location was great.

The owners control the timer on heating the room. The heat doesn’t go on until 7pm. Bundle up if traveling off season!
