The property is in a beautiful old building and is right next to the magnificent cathedral. Two hostesses are very gracious and accommodating to our needs. Our unit for three people is very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast room is beautiful, overlooking a charming street outside. Ample choices for breakfast and they are all very tasty. We spent 3 night there and will be very happy to stay there again.

The rooms were spacious, clean and fresh, but the entrance to the building was dirty and undesirable. Parking requires a complex shuttle arrangement and a walk. Gracious and helpful staff.

Beautiful Ortigia is busy, bustling and offers an abundance of interesting, enjoyable diversions. What a joy to begin and end each day at Maeco B&B! Tucked in an historic palazzo, Maeco is calm, cozy and welcoming. Rooms are spacious and beautifully designed and provide conveniences such as bedside electrical outlets for charging our many devices. The owner and her marvelous staff provide concierge-level assistance and helped us find memorable meals and terrific tours. Maeco is an easy walk from the Siracusa train station and is easy to find in the old city. The Duomo, castle, marina, beaches and epic daily market are no more than 15 minutes by foot. The breakfast buffet is substantial and we enjoyed meeting other guests and comparing travel notes each morning. Truly, our stay at Maeco could not have been better.

We liked EVERYTHING in our stay, it was a highlight of our Sicily trip. 1. Clean spacious room with high ceiling and window open into a quiet street. 2. Updated super-clean bathroom. 3. Beautifully decorated property in a historical building. 3. Excellent breakfast. 5. Location right in the middle of the Ortigia historical area, 2-minute walk from the Cathedral. 6. Friendly and super helpful owner and staff. They answered all our questions and made our stay pleasant and comfortable. 7. Private parking option - comes very handy in a historical city with lots of traffic and restrictions for travelers with a car. 8. Everything was well-organized: check-in and check-out, communication with private parking, etc. Next time we are in Sicily will definitely stay here!

Central location in Ortigia near numerous shops and restaurants. The room was beautiful and surprisingly quiet given it’s central location but there was a slight sewage smell in the bathroom throughout our stay. The building was going through a large renovation so this might have contributed to this issue. We opened our window and this helped. The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was good with the option of fresh eggs made to order daily. The hotel does not have parking so you need to park in a public lot and walk a bit to the hotel.

A very well maintained set up with modern amenities right at the heart of Ortigia. Walking around, coffee shops, shops and restaurants are all within minutes from the Maeco.

Great hotel and close to everything

Hyggelig og behjelpelige ansatte, god frokost, veldig god plassering til alt. Vi ble 2 netter og prøvde 2 rom, som var stilfulle og flotte begge to. Behjelpelig med parkering, som ellers er vanskelig og dyrt. Anbefales og vi hadde valgt dette igjen.
