Antico Hotel Roma 1880

Antico Hotel Roma 1880 is the oldest and most central hotel in Ortygia and the only one in the world to be adjoined to a Greek temple, the Doric Temple of Minerva, now converted into the Cathedral of Syracuse. Founded in 1880, the hotel is framed on two sides by the cathedral and the archbishop's palace and overlooks Piazza Minerva, which leads to Piazza Duomo along the ancient Doric columns of the temple which line the square, and Syracuse's most central street, Via Roma.
