First of all - Ortigia is a historical center on an island - a very unique situation. Therefore, like most Italian historical centers - it is a restricted traffic area (ZTL - zona a traffico limitato) as parking space is extremely limited. Street parking in Ortigia is reserved exclusively to permanent residents with permit. So do not expect to find parking easily and for free. On the island of Ortigia there is no free parking.
The apartment DOES NOT OWN any parking and PARKING is NOT the RESPONSIBILITY of the apartment. But to make your arrival and your stay easier, we will list here the available options.
From Monday to Friday from 8PM to 2 AM, Saturday from 5.00PM to 2AM, on Sundays, public holidays and days before a public holiday from 11AM to 2AM the island of Ortigia is closed for car traffic (ZTL), only permanent residents with permit are allowed to cross the bridges. You will know, if you are allowed to enter, when the info board at the "Santa Lucia" bridge (end of Via Malta) shows "ZTL NON attiva".
During the ZTL hours UNTIL 9.30PM, you can cross the OLD BRIDGE, PONTE UMBERTINO, but exclusively to reach the BLUE short term parking areas TALETE and RIVA NAZARIO SAURO at €1,50/h - see blue P on the map. There are ticket machines nearby.
Outside Ortigia you can park at MOLO S. ANTONIO Parking (€ 1.50/h) and the white lined parking spots.
An easy way to park is near the apartment in the parking "La Mesa" at € 20 per day for small cars (max 4 meters long), € 25 for bigger cars (4 meters or longer). Clients of the private garage can enter at any time, even when the traffic access is restricted during ZTL (the garage sends a list of all their clients cars to the police every night, number plates are registered upon arrival at the garage). Reservation in advance is necessary, availability is limited.
The garage is open from Monday to Saturday from 7AM to 11PM, on Sundays and public holidays from 7AM to 11AM and then 6PM to 11PM. The address of the garage is Via dei Mergulensi 14 and their telephone number is +39 0931 196 5516.
To avoid misunderstandings: the parking La Mesa is not linked in anyway to the apartment nor do we take any kind of commission. This is just to give you a complete information.
