Top neighbourhoods in Syracuse

A historic waterfront with a stone bridge, illuminated buildings, and a calm water body.

Ortigia

Ortigia's ancient limestone streets tell 2,700 years of Mediterranean stories through every weathered stone. Greek temple ruins stand beside a stunning Baroque cathedral, while the 13th-century Castello Maniace guards this tiny island's tip. The mystical Fonte Aretusa freshwater spring creates a papyrus grove right beside the crystal-clear Ionian Sea. Waterfront trattorias serve fresh seafood and Sicilian classics while you watch fishing boats bobbing at sunset. The compact 1km island is best explored on foot through narrow medieval lanes. Historic palazzos converted to boutique hotels offer authentic stays with sea views from wrought-iron balconies.

Neapolis

Step back in time at Syracuse's Neapolis, where ancient Greek and Roman civilisations come alive through remarkable ruins. The Greek Theatre carved into limestone hills offers stunning harbour views, while the Roman Amphitheatre reveals gladiatorial heritage. Don't miss the Ear of Dionysius cave where whispers magically amplify, or the Paradise Quarry gardens blooming with Mediterranean flora. Getting around requires walking on uneven ancient paths, with limited bus service connecting to Syracuse centre. Pack a lunch or visit the small café near the entrance since dining options are minimal. The archaeological park closes at sunset, so plan your visit during daylight hours to fully experience this extraordinary outdoor museum.

Santa Lucia

Santa Lucia delivers an epic history lesson with every step through its honey-colored streets. The ancient area showcases Greek ruins, the legendary Tomb of Archimedes, and the stunning Church of Santa Lucia alla Badia with its soaring dome. Colourful fishing boats bob in Porto Piccolo while the Ionian Sea provides a sparkling backdrop to centuries of Mediterranean heritage. Traditional Sicilian trattorias serve fresh seafood along the waterfront promenade. Stone-walled boutique guesthouses and converted palazzo B&Bs make perfect bases for exploring this walkable historic quarter. The limited public buses mean you'll mostly discover Santa Lucia's treasures on foot, which is exactly how this ancient place should be experienced.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Syracuse

  1. Book for the cheapest times: For travellers on a budget, visiting Syracuse in January, February or November could be a fantastic idea, as hotel prices may drop to lower prices during these months. Exploring the city’s historical landmarks, monuments, archaeological sites, and cultural attractions such as cafes, cathedrals, ruins and areas for walking and sightseeing offers great value for money. A stay of at least 3 to 4 days is ideal for immersing oneself in the rich history and culture of Syracuse.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: When planning a trip to Syracuse, you may discover attractive hotel deals by visiting the DealsOpens in a new window section on Hotels.com, where discounted rates for hotels could be found. The Last-Minute Deals area enables travellers to view potential savings on hotels close to their travel date, and you’re more likely to see flash sales via email alerts or push notifications. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool, available via the app, allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you’re informed of any changes in availability or price reductions.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can vary depending on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and time of year, so having flexibility with your dates may help you save on your stay at a Syracuse hotel. For those seeking a distinctive experience, boutique hotels can offer a more personal touch and occasionally better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we will inform you if the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average, and if it appears to be on the higher side, we might suggest more affordable dates to help you find a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels in close proximity to the city centre usually tend to be more expensive, but with Syracuse's superb public transport connections, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further out that remains well connected. For those keen to explore alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even some lesser-known nearby towns, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
