Fodor's Expert Review Algilà Ortigia Charme Hotel

It's hard to say what's more charming about this boutique hotel: its location overlooking the sea on the edge of the old town, or its delightful interiors, including guest rooms done up in country-chic style, with a mix of modern amenities (Bulgari toiletries, free minibar) and antique touches (wood-beamed ceilings, hand-painted tiles in the bathroom). Many rooms have small balconies overlooking the water, and the nicest feature Jacuzzis on a private terrace. The breakfast buffet is bountiful, and free wine, tea, coffee, and snacks are offered throughout the day.
