Byssus Suites

Booked this property blind from those on offer, what surprise. Fantastic room, huge lounge area, huge toilet and shower room, large comfortable bedroom ( bed dipped slightly in centre otherwise very good), plus we had a steam room attached. The restaurant attached (Odna Blu) is a must visit for those who like seafood as it was of the highest quality due to the fact they have the seafood distribution for the area. Staff super friendly and place modern and spotless.

This accommodation offers a convenient location within walking distance of Ortigia, and the rooms are spacious. However, cleanliness falls short of expectations. The corridors' carpets are noticeably dirty, and the rooms are not thoroughly cleaned, with previous guests' hair, dirty door handles, and unclean light switches. Additionally, the bathroom had a slight odor. On a positive note, the breakfast offers a good variety and is paired with friendly service. Overall, the experience was average, and I would not choose to stay here again.

We recently stayed at Byssus Suites. Wonderful say, clean and very modern suites. Great breakfast and they accommodated our request for gluten free items. Accommodation is about 10 minute walk to Ortigia so close to everything. Lots of dining options . An excellent accommodation Would highly recommend

We had a one night lovely stay at Byssus Suites. Lovely staff and very beautifully decorated and comfortable rooms. A short and flat walk to the centre of Ortygia and we enjoyed being a little out of the centre as we could enjoy less "touristy" dining options too and from the hotel. Hotel has free parking behind which was a bonus for us with a car but you first need to pull up out the front so they can direct you to parking (this can be easy or difficult depending on the time you arrive). Breakfast is at next door restaurant and was lovely with freshly squeezed orange juice. Highly recommend.

We stayed at the Byssus suites for 3 nights at the end of Oct and highly recommend the hotel for luxury accommodations at a slightly softer price point than hotels in Ortigia. We found the accommodations comfortable, well located between Siracusa landmarks and Ortigia, with friendly helpful staff, and a wonderful restaurant too. We stayed in a classic suite which had a lovely sitting room and a separate king bedroom - it was wonderful to have the space to spread out in at the of the day. The breakfast was next door in the restaurant/fish market Onda Blu (we missed the option that they offered ala carte breakfast items) but the buffet was plentiful. Dinner at the Onda Blu was delicious - make sure you try the muscles which is the foundation for the operation. The 5-10 min walk to Ortigia took us through a local neighborhood with many restaurants that felt alive and safe when walking even very late at night, and there was a great Gelataria next door. Ortigia was amazing, but it was nice to retreat to a quieter location at the end of the night. We highly recommend this hotel for those seeking comfort, a larger room, and personalized attention.
