What guests say about this property..."Our apartment in Ortigia was more than we could ask for.  It was so modern and spacious and the location was perfect!  It was convenient to everything — affordable restaurants, cafes, the markets and the rocky beach.  It was also easy for us to get to the Autostrada for our day trips. We were able to visit the ruins in Siracusa, Noto and the nearby beaches, and Taormina.” — J.B., Metairie, LA

History meets comfort in this spacious, newly renovated flat in the center of beautiful Ortigia, a lovely little island that is the historical heart of Siracusa. Its narrow streets are lined with crumbling baroque palaces and ancient churches. Everything is within walking distance — shops, restaurants, cafés, a picturesque harbor, and the Piazza Duomo, considered to be one of the most beautiful squares in Italy.

Casa Aristotle is located on the second floor (no elevator) of an ancient palazzo in a small alley just 50 meters from the legendary Fountain of Aretusa, one of the most famous and most photographed monuments of Ortigia. The apartment was recently renovated so it combines the best of old and new. The living space is unusually large for a city flat. Original wood-beamed ceilings and stone walls blend with a combination of modern and ethnic styles.
