Maison des Reves is ideally located in Syracuse. The Archeological Museum is across the street. The Greek and Roman ruins are just a few blocks away at the end of the street that runs in front of the hotel. In the other direction, the street ends at a seaside monument. We used the 5€ red hop on/hop off bus almost every day during our 8 day stay. The bus stop is just a block away. Everything is super convenient. We got the big room, although we only booked the junior suite. It is a corner room, so the room has 2 balconies. That makes for a lovely cross breeze, but the AC unit in the room worked perfectly. Everything was spotlessly clean, modern, stylish, and in perfect working order.The owner, Giancarlo, went above all expectations of what we expected from a host. There is a too extensive breakfast spread in the morning, including the owner and his father making perfect coffee and cappuccino drinks. It is both hot and cold foods. Freshed squeezed juices are a real treat. There is an elevator, but the hotel is not wheelchair accessible. There are about half a dozen stairs from the street through the courtyard and onto the elevator landing.

OK to the price - very good breakfast.

Everything was good except the pillows provided for use by guests were too firm for us.

Good breakfirst good location...............,.,,..

Discovered antz in our original room. Got relocated after a complaint, with complemantary drinks, which was nice service. Simple breakfast, but lovely staff. Far from the old town. Terrible public communication.

Very pleasent place. Value for money.. Easy to get to centre and enjoy the town.

Only in Syracusa for one evening and morning, arriving by bus and dropped fairly nearby, we positioned to visit Ortigia (a 15-min walk south away for those willing enough) around sunset then the archeological park (5 mins to the west) next day, which worked out beautifully. We chose this B&B not only for these logistics but to avoid the fashionable prices on the peninsula. We were very well received and treated by the family, who were charming. The room was smart, bathroom also, balcony a welcome bonus. Breakfast space was small, but the offerings very satisfactory and well presented. As for the locale, ordinary city streets suit us as well in terms of atmosphere; the building itself nondescript but not unappealing, with its old-fashioned lift. All told, very happy to recommend.
