Michelin Guide
"The rooms are furnished with elegance and the terrace has nice ocean views. Run by Ursulioe nuns."
DK Eyewitness
"The hotel has a small library, where guests can dine during part of the year (the dining room is not open to outsiders). It all adds up to a pleasant and tranquil stay."
Fodor's
"On Ortygia's eastern shore, this hotel, in an unusual twist, is owned by Ursuline nuns, who help to make the mood placid and peaceful—but the elegant accommodations are far from monastic."
