Antares Bed and Breakfast

I highly recommend this place, it is very clean, has a very good standard, and is very well situated, near the Ortigia island, bus stops and the train station. It is therfore a great starting point for visiting other places in Sicily. The host was very friendly and helpful. Everyday we would get bus/train schedules and maps of places we wanted to visit. It is the perfect place for foreign tourists, as the host was fluent in English and offered a lot of support, and made our stay very pleasant by making us feel at home 🥰

Pleasant. The coffee was wonderful. I appreciated the kindness of the owner for getting me vegan croissants.

Hospitality Unlimited We were greeted by Gaetano and Giuseppina, the Son and Mother who are the owners and who treated us like members of their family. Great hospitality extended daily with special breakfast requests. Room and bath was met with all levels of approval except a small recommendation on replacing the mattress sometime soon. Terrific location steps away from the main upscale shopping street of Corso Gelone and a nearby city bus stop that can take you to the B&B or back to the main Catania Airport for any connection. This area is walking distance to the heart of the city for special eateries in Ortigia and open markets just over the walking bridge. Don’t think twice about staying anywhere else but at this B&B in lovely Syracuse.

We had a great time at this B&B in Siracusa! The host, Gaetano, was incredibly knowledgeable about the city and made sure we didn’t miss any of the main attractions in Siracusa, including Ortigia Island, which was just a 10-minute walk away. When we mentioned that our next stop was Catania, Gaetano went above and beyond by printing a map and highlighting the main attractions there too. My wife caught a stomach bug just before we arrived, and Gaetano was a lifesaver. He not only showed us to the nearest pharmacy but also advised on what she should take for her symptoms, which was extremely helpful. The breakfast provided was delicious, and I particularly enjoyed the pistachio croissant! Highly recommend this B&B for anyone visiting Siracusa.

Camera e bagno un po’ datati ma tutto pulito e funzionante. La posizione del b&b è buona all’incirca a metà strada tra Ortigia e il teatro greco e l’area archeologica. Da rivedere secondo noi il servizio colazione che c’è sembrato sia organizzato male che misero nella disponibilità e nella quantità. Proprietario comunque disponibile e molto gentile ma organizzato in maniera poco professionale.

Four of us spent two very comfortable nights at the Antares Bed and Breakfsast in Siracusa, Sicily. It was very clean and very centrally located. Gaetano, the host, was fantastic and he couldn't do enough for us. He even helped us out temendsouly, when we had a flat tire on our rental car. Thanks Gaeitano!
