Surrounded by citrus trees, Villa dei Papiri offers a peaceful setting for your stay in Siracusa, 6 km from the historic centre. Each room has a patio overlooking the gardens. Parking is free. Dating back to the 19th century, this grand villa is located in the Riserva Naturale Ciane & Saline, the nature reserve surrounding the River Ciane, where you can take boat trips. Every room and suite at Villa dei Papiri is spacious and air conditioned. All accommodation features a TV, fridge, and original 19th-century furniture, such as four-poster beds. Each morning a large buffet breakfast is available in the elegant dining hall. A selection of gluten-free food is available upon request.
