My friend and I stayed here for 4 nights. The location is just brilliant, and we had a room with a view over the harbour. Fiora our hostess couldnt have been more helpful and the breakfasts were amazing. Ortigia is a nice esay place to find your way around and even the bus station and the railway is within walking...

Last year I spent a week at L'Approdo delle Sirene, and it was so wonderful that I returned "home" this year to spend 11 nights there. Glad to report it was as wonderful as ever. Of course, the amazing breakfasts start the day, with owner Fiora baking everything, and offering fresh oranges for juice, yogurts, cheeses, crostata, etc. And as... More

wonderful location on the water; quiet yet within easy walking of anywhere you might venture in Ortygia. The owner is a fine chef and oversees the excellent breakfasts. A bonus is their restaurant (Piano B) a few blocks away. It is mostly pizza and salads but of excellent quality; only sorry I didn't go there my first night instead of... More

What a delightful place - comfortable room, with kettle and tea-making facilities, splendid location, marvellous views from roof terrace, great breakfasts, helpful and friendly staff - a place to relax as well as an ideal base for sightseeing.

Nice little hotel with an excellent home made breakfast and very friendly staff. The location is good but unfortunately that week end there was a kayak polo championship in the waterfront and was a bit noisy. Otherwise the location is excellent.

I've stayed at the Approdo several times, and each time has been outstanding. Public areas and rooms -- though fairly small -- were spotless, the aircon worked perfectly, and the breakfasts, as everyone seems to agree, are among the best I've had anywhere, five star hotels included! I was quite shocked to read the negative reviews from Nov 2012. I... More

Booked 3 nights at the B&B in a double room with balcony and sea view. Family run and unlike the other B&Bs we encountered in Italy, the owners are on site and available to assist. The family members are all friendly and will assist with reservations and any questions. Parking is easy, free of charge and right out the door... More

The B&B is in a great location and Fiora is an excellent hostess. She kindly agreed to return our Avis car for us as we were leaving before their office opened and she bakes a fabulous apple cake which was part of a really good breakfast served on the rooftop terrace. My only gripe was our room-#1- which was really... More

Have to start this review on a good note as the over all standard of this b&b was good. So the breakfasts were very good the owner very pleasant but our room was not great. To be fare we maybe should have mentioned it at the time but being British we were far to polite, conversely the problem should have... More
