The ancient city of Syracuse has some incredible historical landmarks, and many of them will be on your doorstep if you choose this smart apartment in the Città Vecchia. On the island that's the city's historic centre, it's got a top location and a stylish, modern interior. The home is part of a typical period building, and although it comes with the tall ceilings and the little balcony you might expect, it's been fully modernised to create a comfortable, home-from-home feel. The living room is bright and colourful, with a comfy sofa bed and an arching lamp, while the kitchen is newly fitted and equipped for cooking at home – if indeed you spend any evenings in. Right in the heart of the city, you'll be surrounded by historic architecture and narrow, cobbled streets. With shops and cafes just outside the front door and the stunning Piazza Archimede at the end of the road, you couldn't be any better placed for exploring Syracuse.
