Stay at Gelone B&B Syracusa
The location is good, 20-30 minutes walk either to the Greek ruins or to Ortygia. You have to announce your arrival one day in advance in order to make arrangements for accessing the apartment. I have not anticipate it and when we phoned at noon, arriving from Syracuse, the owner was unfortunately not available to let us in until 5-6 pm. The parking during the day might be a problem, the owner has access to a parkade 3 blocks away for the amount of 5 $/day. Easy parking in the street at night. The breakfast was simple, the owner made efforts to make our stay pleasant.

This was a good stay!
The mattress could be thicker, but I managed. The proprietor was super good, attentive and trie to be helpful, despite our language incompatibility. Another couple was checking out as I checked in, and they were obviously pleased.

An enjoyable stay at Gelone B & B
The Gelone B & B is located almost opposite the Corso Gelone (street) bus stop. A 15 min walk from Greek and Roman archaeological sites and a short bus trip to the beautiful Ortigia Island. The owners were most welcoming and helpful who recommended two good local restaurants ( Osteria re Pititteddi a few minutes walk away and The 8 O'Clock Trattoria a 15 minute walk away, each of whom allowed a discount to Gelone guests. The owners Sabastian and Maria are lovely people.

Great location
Great location to walk everywhere of interest. Good information from our host Sabastian. Missed not having WiFi. Would have liked a kettle for tea making. Sabastian found us a car park on the street outside and we walked all the time.

Super dejlig overnatning hos Gelone Siracusa
Vores oplevelse med Gelone Siracusa kan kun bedømmes som helt i top. Vi meddelte stedet vi først kunne være fremme omkring kl 24.00. Og da vi kom var det fruen en huset der tog imod os, på trods af hun ikke kunne et ord på Engelsk følte vi os mere end velkommen. Vores 2 børen Marie og Viktor på 6 og 3 år fik begge kæmpe krammer og vi blev vist frem til vores værelse lyne hurtigt. Og næste morgen var der en dejlig morgenmad med alt hvad vi behøvede og også her her en fantastisk og dejlig service. Så helt klart et super god oplevelse.
