Everything was spotless. Staff is very attentive and nice. They can speak multiple languages and try hard to make your life very easy. The recommendations for touring the island and the rest of Siracusa was perfect.
Everything was better than expected

Location
Extremely noisy / poor sound insulation. Woken up every morning by breakfast buffet noises and moving chairs

The Grand Hotel Ortigia lived up to its name. The staff was friendly and helpful. The common areas were very attractive. The terrace restaurant had good food and commanding views of the harbor. The room was well appointed. The only drawback was the small shower located too close to the bidet.

Great location.
Old school charm? I found it kitsch and interesting; arguably it looks a little outdated.
Private parking opposite the hotel is helpful given the nature of the town.
The staff aren’t that friendly. Front desk is professional but a little cold; at least one of the guys running the dining room was consistently grumpy.
The breakfast feels very store bought. Maybe we had been spoiled by a few smaller boutique hotels where the breakfasts were mostly home-cooked.
Generally had a vibe of a hotel that will always be full based simply on its location, and so the motivation to provide excellent service isn’t really there.
