The staff were beyond friendly and amazing! From giving us restaurant recommendations, helping us with parking, to making the most delicious breakfasts with unlimited cappuccinos. Our stay in Ortigia was fantastic!
Michelle
Location was perfect. Right in the centre of everything. Staff was friendly and helpful, from Stefania at the front desk to the breakfast crew and cleaning staff. Could not have asked for a better stay! Would definitely go back!
Anthony
A very charming and personalized B&B steps away from one of the most beautiful squares in Ortigia. The staff is friendly and helpful. Loved my stay - would highly recommend.
Josh
Stefany and the staff were absolutely phenomenal! We loved it and will be back!
theodore
Maeco is a gem - perfect location - will stay again
Jeffery
Stephanie was most helpful in arranging tours and taxis for us. She also gave us some excellent restaurant recommendations. We appreciate her help very much.
Adarsh
Centrally located is this wonderful B&B run by Martina with a delightful team of staff. The location is ideal for walking around the entire island, with abundant choice of restaurants within minutes. The dining room overlooks the street which makes adds to the vibrancy. The room was comfortable and a spacious bathroom with all amenities including a lovely waterfall shower. Breakfast was a highlight and one of the main reasons I would book this place again - fresh selection of bakery products, cooked eggs options, homemade antipasti. Really useful tips for roaming the island from Martina and Steph with good connections with locals e.g. boat trip, shows. I really thoroughly recommend this B&B.
Jennifer
Great location! Friendly staff! Amazing breakfast! Stefania even bakes special treats for the guests.
Walter
An oasis in the middle of an old city of Ortigia, comfortably and tastefully decorated rooms and common space. Classic and artful at the same time. Excellent breakfast and an opportunity to meet fellow travelers. Martina and her staff are very helpful making the stay pleasant and memorable.
Darren
This B&B is in a very central part of Ortygia. The staff were super helpful and it it very much felt like a family run business. There gave us a lot of attention, and the room had everything we needed. Breakfast was simple but good.
Elizabeth
Lovely property near everything. Delicious breakfast and very friendly and helpful staff. Thanks!
george
The breakfast menu was very diverse. Things were fresh and tasty. All varieties of coffee served. The people serving were exceptionally welcoming in hospitable. It was a wonderful place to start the day having a delicious breakfast.
The property was wonderful one of our favorite places to stay during our three weeks of travel around Italy in Sicily Martina, who first greeted this was so thoughtful caring suggested places to go for history also places to eat, even where to get our laundry done she has an excellent Host and made the day id. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The staff were so friendly and welcoming and the rooms really comfortable and so clean. The whole place was warm ,which was a benefit as the weather outside was distinctly wet and cold.( It was March) The breakfast was all you could wish for and the communal table was an opportunity to meet and talk to people from all over the world. Highly recommended.
Eric
The staffs are all friendly. The room is clean and spacious. The location is super. I would highly recommend it.
Christine

Lisa

Tammi
Beautiful B&B
Sherri
Nice quiet place in the center of Ortigia. Only thing is the sign for the location is not super noticeable at first. Small sign on the wall. Had to look twice.
Joanne
Wonderful property, clean and beautiful. The owner was very helpful and helped us with whatever we needed. We highly recommend.
Deirdre
Central location in Ortigia near numerous shops and restaurants.
The room was beautiful and surprisingly quiet given it’s central location but there was a slight sewage smell in the bathroom throughout our stay. The building was going through a large renovation so this might have contributed to this issue. We opened our window and this helped.
The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was good with the option of fresh eggs made to order daily.
The hotel does not have parking so you need to park in a public lot and walk a bit to the hotel.

A very well maintained set up with modern amenities right at the heart of Ortigia. Walking around, coffee shops, shops and restaurants are all within minutes from the Maeco.
The breakfast served is hearty and of high quality.
We were in Ortigia for four nights and Martina and her crew made it even more special.

Great location in the middle of all the main sites in Ortigia - loved the proximity to everything via walking. Hard to find and not easy to get to from parking, but once there, great stay all around!
Antony
Excellent location in centre of Ortigia surrounded by beautiful architecture. Wide range of restaurants just outside and right next to Duomo Piazza. Despite this, no noise disturbance. Very well appointed and spotlessly clean room. The B&B staff were fantastic - so friendly and helpful and accommodating. Excellent breakfast. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.
Samra
Beautiful property, amazing location, superb staff.
Sylvie
Lovely B&B in the heart of Ortigia. Our room was spacious and the bed comfortable. Breakfast was simple but fresh and plentiful. It was also quiet even if facing the street with restaurants and stores. The owner and other ladies working and running the place were very nice and helpful. I would not hesitate to go back to this B&B if returning to Ortigia.
Larry
Beautiful Ortigia is busy, bustling and offers an abundance of interesting, enjoyable diversions. What a joy to begin and end each day at Maeco B&B!
Tucked in an historic palazzo, Maeco is calm, cozy and welcoming. Rooms are spacious and beautifully designed and provide conveniences such as bedside electrical outlets for charging our many devices.
The owner and her marvelous staff provide concierge-level assistance and helped us find memorable meals and terrific tours.
Maeco is an easy walk from the Siracusa train station and is easy to find in the old city. The Duomo, castle, marina, beaches and epic daily market are no more than 15 minutes by foot.
The breakfast buffet is substantial and we enjoyed meeting other guests and comparing travel notes each morning.
Truly, our stay at Maeco could not have been better.

Catherine
This was a beautiful hotel in the centre of Ortigia. So convenient for restaurants and shopping. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. The room was lovely and the air conditioning worked well. I loved this bathroom! Overall, a great stay and location. I’d definitely go back.
Alan
The Maeco B and B is right at the centre of Ortigia and convenient for easy walking to restaurants, shops and all the beautiful sites that the island has to offer. We were welcomed by Alisia who was very helpful and gave us a guide to all the places to see. The next day wee met Martina the owner who was also very welcoming. The Maeco is very tastefully furnished blending traditional fitting's blended with modern things like plexiglass chairs. Our room was very spacious with a well appointed bathroom. Breakfast is a mix of pastries, cold meats cheese, bread fruit, yoghurt etc and eggs can be cooked to order. The staff are very friendly and obliging. I would thoroughly recommend the Maeco for its first class facilities and hospitality.
Manuel
Back in time with al the comfort
XVII century palace with grand stairs and beautiful room over looking a baroque church. All this run by the grand daughter of the palace her self
Isabela
Wonderful modern B&B in a historic building in the middle of everything.
Monica
Excellent location in Ortigia, inside a palazzo, with a peekabo view of the Med. Beautifully appointed rooms, comfortable beds, soft, warm linens, amply sized bathroom with rain shower and excellent water pressure.
Our room faced a quiet alleyway, so despite being at the center of everything on a weekend, our room was blissfully quiet. Breakfast is lovely with homemade pastries and juices.
Parking is very difficult, but Martina and staff helped us arrange. A note that Ortigia itself is not a very accessible destination, we parked as close as was possible and still carried our bags across a town square and down a couple streets. There is no elevator, and entrance to the palazzo requires lifting bags over a door lip.

Everything around this bnb is simply lovely. The building is authentic, right there in the main piazza , the cleanliness is astonishing, and the service is beyond, owner was attentive to my needs, she agreed to serve breakfast earlier, she guided my thorough every step of check in, made sure I had recommendations of the city, she was fantastic, breakfast delicious in a beautiful dining room. Best bnb in all my trip around Italy.
Michael
Have stayed in many B&Bs in Italy and elsewhere and Maeco is one the very best. Martina extends a warm welcome, has excellent taste and runs a superb operation. The location couldn’t be better and the B&B’s modern amenities are integrated beautifully into the impressive historic building.
Pamela
I had a wonderful stay at Maecò Ortigia B&B. My room was really nice, confotrable and quiet. The breakfast was terrific. Also the two women who manned the front desk were very helpful. They gave me terrrific restaurant recommendations. They also set up a boat ride around the island and a taxi to the bus to the airport in Catania.
The B&B is in a great location. It is on one of the main streets with lots of restaurants and stores. It is also very close to the Duomo and the Piazza Archimede.

Fantastic location in the heart of old town Ortigia. Large room and bathroom with beautiful decor. Excellent breakfast with good selection of fresh, quality products. Martina was very calm & helpful when we got lost trying to drop our car so it could be parked. It all worked out in the end! Loved the communal breakfast table where we met fellow travellers from around the world. Definitely recommend Maecò Ortigia
Antoine
La localisation de la propriété est exceptionnelle. La propriétaire Martina est attentionnée et a de bons contacts dans la ville. Le personnel est souriant. Le déjeuner était délicieux. Le seul petit point négatif est l'odeur dans le hall d'entrée menant à la propriété.
Oliver
We loved our stay and would recommend this place to anyone planning on staying in Ortigia

Eden
This B&B is simply 5 stars. Its location is right in the centre of Ortigia, so perfect for dining, exploring and shopping. Quiet at night in our room despite being located in a main alleyway. Breakfast was superb & Martina (the owner) was amazing. Lovely experience
Andrea
Fab property, lovely interior and really helpful staff
Dawn
The property is in a beautiful old building and is right next to the magnificent cathedral. Two hostesses are very gracious and accommodating to our needs. Our unit for three people is very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast room is beautiful, overlooking a charming street outside. Ample choices for breakfast and they are all very tasty. We spent 3 night there and will be very happy to stay there again.
Randall
I had my doubts when I saw this place's facade and made my way upstairs to reception, but then everything changed! The place is wonderful--completely updated, modern, and spotlessly clean! The staff members, especially Martina, are very helpful and friendly. My room was spacious--at least as nice as many of the rooms I've stayed in at hotels that cost much more.
Michelle
Maecò Ortigia B&B was our favourite hotel on our 12 day trip. Martina and her staff were very welcoming. The rooms are beautiful and location in Syracuse - perfect!
Mikhail
We liked EVERYTHING in our stay, it was a highlight of our Sicily trip.
1. Clean spacious room with high ceiling and window open into a quiet street.
2. Updated super-clean bathroom.
3. Beautifully decorated property in a historical building.
3. Excellent breakfast.
5. Location right in the middle of the Ortigia historical area, 2-minute walk from the Cathedral.
6. Friendly and super helpful owner and staff. They answered all our questions and made our stay pleasant and comfortable.
7. Private parking option - comes very handy in a historical city with lots of traffic and restrictions for travelers with a car.
8. Everything was well-organized: check-in and check-out, communication with private parking, etc.
Next time we are in Sicily will definitely stay here!

A delightful stay, perfect for seeing the fascinating centro storico Ortigia. Our hosts were extremely helpful and welcoming, we wanted for nothing. This boutique hotel is finished with high quality fixtures and fittings.
Breakfast was a healthy delight.
Would certainly return to this oasis of tranquility

ray
Very nice place in central location. Fredericka was a huge asset/help. She helped coordinate parking which I was a bit concerned about prior to our arrival. Cost was 25 euros per day, a bit steep, but was worth it.
We should have stayed longer than one night, my mistake. Lovely around the island.

A beautiful boutique B&B with a fantastic location right in the centre of Ortigia. Spacious clean room with everything you need. Fantastic breakfast and very helpful staff who helped with restaurant recommendations etc. Definitely recommend and would love to go back.
John
The rooms were spacious, clean and fresh, but the entrance to the building was dirty and undesirable. Parking requires a complex shuttle arrangement and a walk. Gracious and helpful staff.
Luisa
I lived that was an antique building. Great location! Federica and the whole staff very professionals and friendly.
Holly
The Ritz Carlton, the Four Season…of the B&B with deep roots of history. Your hostess, the family you didn’t know you had. This is an old castle but done so so well. Spotless and clean. You don’t want to leave. However, the memories LIVES on forever and evermore!!
Lee A
Location was fantastic placing in the middle of Ortigia. The facilities were spot on; very clean, fresh and hospitable.
Alexander
Urin soaked and feces lined entrance
The B&B itself is very centrally located, making it a great choice if you just want to walk around the historic part of the city.
The B&B is inside another building and you need to take the staircase to get in. The staircase is absolutely disgusting, reeks of urine and had actual feces when we arrived. When we asked the receptionist about it, she pretended to be oblivious about it. This is unacceptable.
Do not stay at this B&B unless you want a very unpleasant experience every time you enter and leave it.
For Covid-19 reasons, the place does not serve breakfast at the moment. You get a voucher for a coffee and pastry at a cafe around the corner with a view of the Duomo.

For Covid-19 reasons, the place does not serve breakfast at the moment. You get a voucher for a coffee and pastry at a cafe around the corner with a view of the Duomo.

This was one of the BEST B& Bs I have ever stayed in. Not only is the location perfect but the cleanliness, beauty and helpfulness of the staff were truly outstanding. Special thanks to Simona for her wonderful help with everything and for making sure my stay was a great experience!
