Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Catania

Stefano House is a room with a separate entrance in a private residence, just outside Catania city centre. The room is in a large garden, with a silhouette of the beautiful city of Catania. The host was very attentive, even asked us what we wanted to eat in the morning. There is a free parking space for your car or motorcycle in this gated property. And there is an automatic door at the door of the Villa. A secret gem in Catania...

The property is situated in a beautiful area and parking is so close by the room. The host always prepared fresh homemade breakfast which was delicious.

Easy parking on their private property Nice well kept rooms Quiet location quite central in Catania Efficient check in and great hosts

Daniela the host was absolutely fantastic nothing was too much for her. On arrival she made us a lovely cup of tea despite it being very late.

beautiful property situated few kilometers away from the centre. peaceful and ideal for a short break

The location of the Hotel was really great, close enough to the centre but not super busy or loud. Breakfast was fine, if you take a typical Italian coffee and croissant for breakfast. Pool was nice to have, although we did not make use of it due to weather and other factors. Water tank and coffee available at reception is great.

Excellent location in the heart of Catania, the pool is small but clean, staff is very helpful and friendly, breakfast was good.

Clean comfortable room, The parking and pool make it very convinient!

it’s in great place, near to Villa Bellini which is beautiful & on the airport bus route so really easy & cheap to get to the rooms are spacious the staff are very welcoming & the coffee/tea & cool water ‘on tap’ in reception was so welcoming & also complimentary so we were very hydrated the pool area was really good for Catania & there was an outdoor shower & the swimming cap & towel were loaned by the hotel the breakfast was included & we had quite a bit of choice as two people who can’t eat gluten or dairy products

Nice pool area, free cold water dispenser in the reception, rooms were clean and conformable for a reasonable in a good location, very close to the airport bus stop and a short pretty walk into the centre. Also hotel is very close to the botanical garden which are free and very pretty.

Just perfect! We came on the spot because our B&B appeared to be awful. So we switched and were happy with that. The reception was big, the room had brand new renovation, was clean and modern. There was a greeting card on the table, glass bottled water and traditional cookies on the pillows. The room had everything we needed: slippers, robes, all hygienic staff you can ever need. The hotel had a partnership with (or included) spa. We had no time to go there, but the prices were really good. The breakfast was more like in Florence and it was the best cuisine we managed to try on Sicily. The next day my friend left early in the morning, and I had my flight in the evening. So I left my luggage on the reception and went to the excursion to Etna in the first half of the day. When I came back i was not sure what to do. I wanted to swim, but I couldn't take a shower after. The receptionist gave me a voucher for the free entrance for Lido and told me they have jacuzzi pool on the roof, and I can rest there and have a shower after. I followed their plan and it was great. When it was time to leave I ordered prosecco and they gave me antipasto (snacks). Actually one of the snacks was a bowl of pasta and a lot of staff in addition. For me it was a dinner))) P.S. When we called to the reception at night and asked for water, the guy looked like a butler from movie "Home alone 2"=) And all the staff were nice, clean, uniformed and polite.

Excellent by all measures. Great location within a 5 minutes walk of the Cathedral and main town square (piazza). The hotel bar on the rooftop was a bit of a night spot but for guests who want a peaceful environment the rooms are very well insulated and quiet. The breakfast was excellent as well and included both warm and cold items, fruit, as well as a good variety of pastries and coffee any way desired. Very nice bedding and large flat screen TV in the room and the bathroom had a nice big shower. The restaurant is very nice. The evening we ate there was with a group and set menu and the pasta course was typical Sicilian and absolutely superb. There is also a very good seafood restaurant about 50 meters up the street. Catania itself is a vibrant active city. The side streets away from the center were covered with graffiti however in the 3 days we were there we didn’t see any incidents of “bad behavior”, felt totally welcomed by the locals and have a great impression of Catania and Sicily in general.

From the moment I arrived at Palazzo SanGeorgio I knew I was in for something special. The property reflects impeccable taste and thoughtful design. The elegant modern interiors create an atmosphere that strikes a perfect balance between luxury and comfort, making you feel instantly at home. What truly sets this hotel apart however, is its exceptional staff. Every staff member I encountered was warm, professional, and genuinely eager to ensure our stay was enjoyable. From seamless check-in to helpful local recommendations, their attentiveness and kindness made every moment of our stay feel personal and memorable. The breakfast spread was nothing short of sumptuous, featuring everything from artisanal pastries created on site and fresh seasonal fruits. The presentation was exquisite, and the flavors were as delightful as the service. I’ve stayed in many hotels around the world, five in the past ten days, in three different countries, however this hotel exceeded my expectations. It’s a place where luxury meets heart, and I cannot wait to return. A heartfelt thank you to Gabrielle and the entire team for creating such a beautiful and unforgettable experience. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What a beautiful hotel, much nicer than I even expected. It’s brand new and we were honoured to be among the first guests, we checked in 8 days after the official opening! The rooms were very tastefully decorated and the bathrooms were AMAZING! So much marble and so modern! Loved the lit mirror in the room. The bed was so comfortable, I didn’t want to check out!! The only feedback we have is that there should be some towel hooks in the bathrooms, and perhaps a soap dish for the bathrooms with bowls. We booked 4 rooms and each was uniquely decorated with bathrooms a bit different. One only had a large marble tub and no walk-in shower, tub may be a bit awkward. Breakfast was excellent, great service, quality and selection. Location was great, within short walk to the Duomo Piazza. Thank you for making our stay in Catania very special! The staff was amazing. Congratulations on opening this beautiful hotel.

I really loved this hotel. I found Catania to be gritty and dirty, though it had some good food and the area around the Duomo was somewhat magical at night, but the hotel was a comfortable and quite refuge. The room size was comfortably ample (not huge), though with a small closet. I really enjoyed the design, with its stone walls and modern bathroom. The service was very good. Having said all that, the breakfast was probably to best part of our stay; it had most of the Sicilian specialties I had on my list, aranccini, cannoli, stuffed zucchini flowers, cassata. They usually serve granita for breakfast too, but they had just stopped the week before for the season. I am very happy I chose to stay here.

Overall amazing experience at this hotel! The front desk service was impeccable as the 3 rotating greeters were all attentive to our needs offering us water, a cab if we needed or help getting to other towns or around the city. Location was a little further from city center but not by much and it was nice to be outside the hustle and bustle but not too outside where you felt in the middle of nowhere. Our room was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed as I was not expecting it in such an old city like Catania. The hotel lobby was great for hanging out in and taking a much needed break from the heat. The courtyard was nice to have and when in our room we barely heard the noise from the street. I never once felt unsafe as the staff always made me feel right at home. If I had to be picky on a few things I would just say the water pressure of our shower was not the best and the breakfast had options but not many and most options that were hot were an extra charge. Still we enjoyed what was there and out every morning and the workers could not have been friendlier. Beds and sheets were super comfy and the AC was working perfectly and a life saver in the heat of July which we much appreciated. Not too pricey so if you want the luxuries of a hotel as opposed to an Airbnb I highly recommend!

I chose to stay at this hotel based on the positive reviews - and as compared to the many other hotels in the city. Liberty Hotel really delivered! I have to say, I was uncertain about what we would experience when we arrived as the general area seemed a bit rough with plenty of graffiti and unkept streets. But our experience was fabulous. The hotel is actually in a very safe area and despite some street noise from time to time, the hotel is very quiet once inside. We stayed in a room on the main floor at street level. I was concerned that it might be noisy but it was not. The room was incredibly quiet, well-appointed and very comfortable. The beds and linens made for a lovely nights sleep. The bathroom was clean and had plenty of towels and toiletries. Breakfast was included and was typically what you would expect. It was very good with a variety of tasty selections available. We took advantage of the wonderful weather into the evenings and sat in the courtyard area (just beyond the lobby). It was ideal and felt very private. The staff at Liberty Hotel were absolutely fabulous. They were helpful, engaging and knowledgable. They really made our stay amazing. If I was to return to Catania, I would absolutely stay at the Liberty Hotel.

From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay truly special. Every member of the team was not only professional and courteous, but genuinely warm and attentive. Whether it was offering helpful local tips, assisting with last-minute requests, or simply greeting us with a smile each day, their availability and willingness to help made all the difference. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble – they were always present, proactive, and eager to ensure we had everything we needed. Their care and attention to detail created a welcoming atmosphere that truly set this hotel apart. It’s rare to experience such consistent kindness and efficiency across the entire team. A heartfelt thank you to everyone – your dedication and hospitality did not go unnoticed. We will absolutely be returning, and recommending this hotel to others without hesitation.

What a hidden gem, we stayed here for 2 nights and were greeted by Silvio - who is an asset to the hotel. He was so passionate about ensuring we knew the places we should visit and where we should eat, very knowledgeable and accommodating staff that take pride in their work. All staff took the time and care to ensure you had everything you needed, Salvatore was at recpetion the 2nd day and was also very welcoming and ensured we had everyhting we needed. The rooms have so much character and the hotel itself is like a time capsule. Check in and check out was so easy. Central to all city centre attractions, you can get everywhere by walking. Will stay here again 😀

If you are looking for Sicialian Old World charm, this hotel has it in spades. It is quiet, elegant and tucked away in an unlikely setting. The surrounding buildings and street do not vibe with beautiful hotel. Although it was a short walk downhill to the Roman amphitheater, the uphill climb is not for someone who would rather not exert themselves. The restaurants close by are fair, lacking the ambiance and sophistication of more upscale restaurants. The staff at this hotel were fabulous- attentive and informative. Valentina and Antonio gave us great recommendations for sightseeing and places to eat. The breakfast was excellent, again with wonderful waitstaff. We felt very cared for by everyone at the Liberty Hotel!!

We had a great nights stay at the Airone. It was the end of our trip and we needed a hotel for a night before flying home. We were able to check in early afternoon time and spent a lovely couple of hours by the pool. Pool towels provided. Super clean and air conditioning throughout. We had dinner in the bar which only had a small menu but the food was really nice. Breakfast selection was great. Our room was a great size for a family with two single beds made up in the living room and another separate bedroom area with a super king bed. Huge big bathroom. We thought the range of free drinks in the mini bar was a really nice touch. Staff were lovely and so welcoming. The only negative is the location. It’s not in the greatest part of town and you will need a car or taxi to get in to the centre. This didn’t matter for us as we’d already visited Catania at the beginning of our trip and just wanted somewhere quiet with a pool for our last night.

Lovely clean hotel with exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Very pleasant and relaxing pool area and outside patios to have meals or just chill out. It should be noted that the picture of the pool in the brochure was definitely taken using a wide angle lense to make it look bigger than jt really is. BUT it is a nice pool and a welcome sight after a hot day exploring. Breakfast was ample and fresh, and the lunch/dinner menu was limited but adequate, depending on your dietary expectations. My wife is a vegan, and the staff were more than happy to adjust the salads to suit her requirements. The rooms were spacious and comfortable with aircon in every room (we were a family of 4 and booked 2 rooms)

We really enjoyed our stay in this modern hotel. The room was comfortable, adjustable, spacious and equipped with minibar included in the price. The main bed was super cosy and the additional bed for two kids was really good. The air conditioning was superb chilling immediately even on hottest days. Both hotel and the room were spotless at all times. In addition to breakfast, the restaurant serves light dinner / sapper and variety of drinks. The pool isn't big, but comfortable with a small waterfall. It is placed in a way it is in shadow after 3 p.m. in August. It has never been crowded and there was always a plenty of free sun beds available at the pool. The underground car park worked well and even the hotel was full there was always where to park. The location is also good with quick access to main roads. But the biggest asset is professional and friendly hotel staff acting swiftly to help both in everyday and extraordinary situations.

Perfect hotel for our last night in Sicily. We wanted somewhere with a pool where we could relax after arriving in catania by train, and before our flight out the next day. Our room was large and light with direct access to the terrace. Bed was comfy and towels were fluffy, especially the pool towels. Shower was a teeny bit small but otherwise powerful. We only had to walk 10 mins to a good local restaurant; very fresh fish and great pasta. Breakfast was plentiful and lovely to eat on the terrace. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A great find!

I liked every thing. Staff, food, pool, and room. But im gluten free i asked them if they had gf beer. They said no but offered to get some. I jokiingly said peroni if they could. When i got there there they had ice cold peronis in the fridge. Also the gf selection at breakfast was lovely. Room and pool excellent! I recommend this hotel. Ive been a chef for 36 years so ive stayed and worked in a few hotels. This one was very good!❤️🇮🇹

clean wuth a great view and really nice pool area. easy acccess to beach and town.

Hotel Trieste is in an amazing position, in the historical centre near the opera house and only a few minutes walk from the main sights in or near Piazza Duomo (Cathedral square) and Piazza l'Universita (lively square with music). Street food eateries of the pescheria as well as the restaurants and cafes in the heart of Catania are also only a few minutes walk away. It is a quiet and safe area during the day and at night. Rooms and entry to the hotel are very secure. Bus stops are a minutes walk away and the airport bus stops nearby. The train station to go further afield is a 15min walk away. The room was superbly clean and serviced daily. An especially nice touch is that water is provided in the mini fridge daily. I stayed in April and the weather was cold at night, the air con system allows you to cool or warm the room as needed. Breakfast was an excellent continental breakfast which was slightly different each day. A nice mix of pastries, bread, yogurt, cereal etc. Everyone at the hotel is very friendly and helpful and they are all genuinely lovely people- a real asset to Hotel Trieste. I highly recommend Hotel Trieste and hope to visit again in the future.

The place was not stylish but was clean, practical, and well-located, and owned by a husband and wife of the finest character. I arrived after an extremely stressful, long and tiring journey after a tour bus mixup resulted in me hiking over 10 miles in the sun with insufficient food and water. I was stressed out, emotional and exhausted. The owners were kind, compassionate, and reasuring, and sent me to freshen up, rehydrate, and get some rest. In the morning they helped me to reconnect with my daughter who had gotten stuck in the airport overnight and send us off to a local place for a delicious meal, some light sightseeing, and with instructions to have some relaxation and fun - with minimal exertion (no long hikes) for at least a day or so! The place lacked sophistication, but I wouldn't have stayed anywhere else. You can't put a price on kindness, caring, and true hospitality.

On the bus going from the Catania airport, I left a bag with my meds and insulin for my diabetes. Marco the owner of the hotel was kind enough to go to the bus station on his scooter to see if he could find it. 20 minutes later he came back with the bag. He literally saved my life. The room was spacious and comfortable and the location was fantastic, right in the center of the city, walking distance to almost all the attractions. As if Marco wasn't kind enough already, one morning we were having breakfast at the same cafe was and he paid for our breakfast. Overall Catania and the hotel was a great experience.

We really liked this place, simple, very clean, good shower and hot water and in a very central location. The owners, Alice and Guiseppe are hard-working, good, friendly and helpful people. They both speak good English, and German and I think some other languages too. Ask them for where to eat out etc., their advice was perfect. The Internet was a bit problematic sometimes but that was not Alice and Giuseppe's fault and they were very helpful resetting the router. To find the hotel, ask for/ get to the Bellini opera house. Facing the theatre from the Piazza, go through the left hand arch next to theatre and the hotel is 25 metres on your left.

I loved everything about this hotel. The service and attentiveness at the front desk was the best I have experienced in Sicily (and I have been traveling here for a decade). Pier, at the front desk, welcomed us like he had been waiting all day for us to come. The young lady (I can't remember her name) the next day also was very kind. It was my birthday, they made sure we had an early check in - we had a room upgrade to a slightly larger suite with a balcony. We had reservations which we made ahead time at the Etnea Rooftop. I HIGHLY suggest it. We also took advantage of the rooftop breakfast the next day. Our friend had an early flight the next day, and they packed her a to-go breakfast and arranged a driver to take her to airport. The hotel is in the one of the prettiest part of Catania with all of the shopping and several sights in walking distance. I often stay one night in Catania for airport purposes, but used to stay near the airport. From now on I will take the time to go into the city centre to return to Hotel Una!

This was our second stay. We enjoyed our wedding anniversary prior to a flight out of the Catania airport. We booked a dinner on the Etnea Roof Bar and Restaurant. Dinner was even better than last time (which I cannot believe). The service both in the hotel and restaurant was amazing. When we arrived to the hotel a huge group of people from a tour bus had arrived and were checking in, but Rita at the front desk did not miss a beat. She kept organized who was with the tour and who was not, and checked us in quickly. They also remembered it was our anniversary and made us feel special. We used valet parking and they had our car waiting at 6:15 a.m,. as scheduled with a breakfast packed to go to the airport. It takes less than 15 minutes to get to the airport. The Palace Una is on one of the prettiest streets in the city.

First time stay in this hotel. Booked directly through the hotel, and got an upgrade. Also, our request for connecting rooms was met. So our children could sleep on the adjacent room. Hotel staff were very friendly. The hotel itself is a very nice building. A bit dated, which you can hear by creaks and cracks or water flowing through pipes at night. But it most certainly had an atmosphere. As part of our upgrade, we had breakfast on the terrace overlooking Etna. Unfortunately, it was a bit foggy. But nonetheless the sight on this majestic volcano was very impressive. The valet parking is very convenient. We could leave our car as long as we wanted the next day, so we could explore Catania on the afternoon.

We had another fabulous stay at this hotel. The roof top terrace with the view of Etna is not to be missed! We had a really nice breakfast on the Terrace and Bina, the lead waitress was so kind and helpful. We also had a nice surprise when a woman from the housekeeping knocked on our door and gave us some almond biscotti. The reception team were also super helpful and organised taxis for us and allowed us to leave our bags so we could explore the city as we had arrived early for check in. Our room was perfect, totally clean, comfortable with AC. We will definitely visit this hotel again!

From the moment I arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always available to help with any request. It’s clear they take great pride in ensuring their guests have the best experience possible. The accommodations were equally impressive. My room was spotless, spacious, and beautifully designed, with all the amenities I could have asked for. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I appreciated the thoughtful touches, like [specific amenities, e.g., a welcome note, high-quality toiletries, etc.]. I highly recommend staying here if you're looking for excellent service and a comfortable, relaxing stay!

The staff went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and valued as a guest from the moment I set foot inside the door. I visited Catania 14 years ago and stayed in a teeny apartment over in the old town amongst the bustle of the markets and restaurants, but Hotel Centrum offered me a much more grown up and relaxing experience as a 40 year old woman travelling alone, who wanted to be near to the transport links for easy travelling. Upon arrival, I was offered an early breakfast, because I was leaving to catch a bus before 7:30am. As promised, at 6:45am they made me a huge jug of americano/ling black coffee (offered either cappuccino, espresso, americano etc)and let me just let me into the breakfast room to fill myself up with the delirious food on offer. The spread included: homemade cakes, tortes, freshly prepared and whole pieces of fruit, cereals, yogurt, tiramisu looking cream puddings, salamis, cheese, bread, cooked items, bruschetta…the list goes on! It was presented so beautifully and thoughtfully (unlike chain hotels clinical buffet arrangements). There were carrot and blood orange juices to refresh yourself with too. The room was spacious and very clean ( and cool with the AC!). I had a sweet little balcony to sit out on and enjoy a lovely cold drink on whilst gazing out at a fab view. I would highly recommend this hotel to everyone anyone!

WOW !!! Excellent stay here. This was our first trip to Sicily and so glad we did. Hotel Centrum is ideally located and easily accessible to the Bus Termini and the Train Termini and a short walk to the main street in the city which is generally closed to traffic and packed with people walking. We walked our suitcases from the hotel to the train station to go to Taormina and we also did a day trip to Siracussa from here and highly recommend both those towns. Back to Hotel Centrum, room was a good size, bathroom was great, very clean and comfy. There are shutters and double doors to the balcony which kept noise and light out for a good nights sleep. There is a lift to get bags upstairs, you can can use all the time if you need to. It has charm and friendly and helpful staff 24/7 at the entry door. The breakfast downstairs is reminiscent of how a hotel should be, the spread of food was amazing. Guests are seated and offered coffe and then help yourself to juices, fresh fruit, hot eggs and bacon, bread, meats, cheeses, pastries, cakes and the list goes on. You won't leave hungry. They went out of their way to suply gluten free food for me including a large almond chocolate cake. I would definitely stay again.

Our 8 night stay at Hotel Centrum was fantastic! All of the hotel staff were helpful, friendly, spoke English, and gave great recommendations on where to get bus tickets, restaurants, etc. They were able to arrange reliable taxi service for us. The location was walkable to both the central tourist area near the cathedral & the bus/train stations, and easy access to a pedestrian walkway to Bellini Theater to avoid walking busy narrow streets. The hotel & room were clean & we had one of the best bathrooms in Europe for a hotel this size (big & well lit). There was an elevator. The wi-fi worked well, it was quiet, comfortable temperature, had a refrigerator, there was plenty of light, space for luggage & clothing, and the TV was fine. The BREAKFAST was OUTSTANDING ~ a variety of homemade pastries, Italian cheese & cold cuts, savory quiche/appetizers, scrambled eggs, breads, cereals, fruit, juice & choice of expresso, cappuccino, hot chocolate or tea. They gave us some pastry & beverage prior to a very early taxi pick-up to the airport. One night after a long tour, the staff made a room service salad & beverages for us to have with some of our leftover pizza/sandwiches in the breakfast area & put the charges on our room.

I stayed for 4 nights at Hotel Centrum Catania in August 2024. On booking, I asked for a room on a higher floor not facing the main street. Upon arrival, early, I was given a room exactly as requested (no 405). Despite not a big hotel (a boutique I should say) it is very good value for money. The room was a double, very fine and fairly large by Italian standards. The bed was large, good pillows, I slept very well. Big plus: minibar, safe, cable TV. AC was well placed (not facing the bed) and worked very well. Bathroom was large by any standards, although strangely enough the shower cubicle was small. Very good water pressure, good quality towels. Both room and bathroom were kept very clean by daily service. Breakfast was absolutely exceptional! The “dolci” (the sweet part) are homemade, varied and delicious! The service needs mention as all the receptionist I engaged with (3 + the landlady) were competent with recommendations, smiling, accommodating, helpful in any way possible. All these makes any stay a joy for the guest. Special mention to lovely Giuliana who recommended Trattoria del Cavaliere! Whenever in Catania I will gladly stay again at Centrum Hotel.

This hotel was in a great location-within walking distance from trains & bus and at the edge of the tourist area. The area closer to the bus station is a little sketchy but this hotel was in a safe area, 2 blocks from Theatre Massimo and about a 15-20 min walk to the Duomo, Catania fish market and many excellent restaurants. The hotel always has a manned staff and for added security, the door is locked and they buzz you in. The best thing about this hotel is the staff. They are super friendly and helpful. We enjoyed talking to them daily as we came and went. We had a decent sized room on the 1st floor, a comfortable bed, good AC and a great shower. There is an elevator for upper floors but you do need to walk up the stairs to the first floor. This wasn't an issue for us but if you can't climb stairs, be sure to request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floors. Breakfast was also included and had plenty of pastries and other options plus great coffee! I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends.

A lovely hotel in the centre of Catania (it’s about a 10 minute walk from the main square). There are a few stairs to reach the top level of the building where the hotel is located. The room was spotlessly clean and the air conditioning was lovely. We had a delicious breakfast buffet on the terrace watching the sunrise over the rooftops and a smooth checkout. Of note, it’s about a 10 minute walk to the hotel from the station area and if you are going to the airport, it really can’t be beaten, the ALIB bus to the airport was just across the street! Oscar was very helpful at reception coming down to help with our bags both in and out. Well worth a stay here and we’ll definitely stay here again if we come back to Catania.

The hotel is ideally situated in the historic heart of Catania, housed in a beautiful old building. Our room was expansive, adorned tastefully, impeccably clean, and the amenities were top-notch. We arrived early from Taormina, typically too soon for check-in, but our room was already prepared and the staff extended a warm welcome. I had made some inquiries about airport transfers prior to our arrival, and the responses were consistently prompt, detailed, and helpful. The breakfast was superb, offering a variety of options, and it was delightful to enjoy it on the hotel's beautiful rooftop terrace. The hotel's charm and the staff's extraordinary kindness and hospitality together crafted a unique experience for us as guests. Should we ever return to Catania, Hotel Biscari will undoubtedly be our choice again. Grazie mille!

Loved this place! The staff were so friendly and helpful (Vincenzo when we checked in was fantastic), the location is super central and the breakfast on the rooftop terrace with a stunning view was superb. We also went to Etna parkrun in the morning and they very kindly let us change in the facilities when we got back at 10:30, even though we had already checked out! Really phenomenal and personal customer service. The bed was really comfy, room was huge and air con was brilliant. The shower also had much better water pressure than we've had elsewhere. The decor is simple and traditional and we loved it, especially for the affordable rates.

The room we got was really spacious, very clean with good AC and small french balcony. Everything was just as it supposed to be. It is an old style hotel in an old building - but! it's not worn or underequipped! On the other side - it's comfortable and really nice! Breakfast - on the roof top - excellent experience! Staff was also really nice - helpful and smiling. We loved our stay and would recommend the hotel to anyone. There are stairs - hotel is on a second floor but it's nothing for a normal person, we were with 3 kids and luggage and managed ;)

Excellent location, very close to the main attractions and churches within walking distance. The room was spacious and clean with a very good air conditioner for a family of 4 with kids. The shower was good . The owner was super helpful and friendly, he allowed us to keep our luggage after checking out. Oscar does care about making sure that his guests are welcomed . Great breakfast on the rooftop. Best of all we did not worry about parking in the street, for 10 euro it was parked in the hotel. I definitely recommend this place.

The location is perfect. Right in the middle of Corso Umberto, the main shopping-dining street. We booked two rooms. My son stayed in a single room, we stayed in a double. Both rooms were basic but very sufficient. We had a balcony, which was fun. The breakfast was very good with many options. Pastries were always fresh. The guys sitting at the reception were all very helpful and nice to chat with. Taormina is built on steep hills. I'd recommend to book a hotel close to Corso Umberto since you'll spend a lot of time in restaurants, bars, cafes. Booking a room down the hill, close to beaches, is tempting but you may end up going up and down throughout the day.

Our third time on Sicily and this was definitely the best hotel so far. Completely new. We had zero views from the windows, but the room was VERY spacious and quiet, practically equipped, the aircon wasn’t a freezer operating on a volume level of a food processor but a normal modern machine, the bathroom was well lit, the bed was comfy, pillows ergonomic and like new - hence, if you’re looking for a centrally located comfort, not shabby Catania chic, this is definitely the place to go.

The front desk staff were particularly friendly and helpful. It was really great that I could leave my bag before checking in so I could explore the city and then again after checking out. They answered all my questions and were very helpful and communicative. The room was spacious and comfortable with everything I needed. Breakfast was tasty and a good selection. Great location within a short walk of the main streets. Thank you!

B&B Hotel Catania City Center is a great hotel. Good location in the centre of Catania, only minutes away from main shops and plenty of restaurants. Hotel was clean and contemporary and a good size for a city like Catania and we felt safe at the hotel too. Staff were very helpful and welcoming. We opted to have breakfast elsewhere, many choices close by for an authentic Italian breakfast!

The hotel is great at every point. Location's top, near the city centre, walking 2 mins to the nearby market, bus stop (bus to the airport) 100m from the entrance of the hotel. We were feeling safe during out stay in this location. Rooms are brandly new and clean. The bed was very comfy. We enjoyed our stay, definitely a good choice for a few nights in Catania.

I stayed here for 4 nights at the end of September. It was a very pleasant stay. The staff were all very pleasant and spoke English. The hotel is situated on a side street off the Via Liberta. The hotel is a 10 minute walk from Catania Centrale Railway station and the Giovanni XXIII metro stop. There is a breakfast room in the hotel but no restaurant. Also the hotel does not have a bar. There is a small minibar in the room however. My room was on two levels with a double bed upstairs and a double bed on the lower floor. There was a decent sized shower/wc ensuite. There was plenty of storage for clothes. There was a TV with a wide range of channels and also tea and coffee making facilities. It's a hotel that I would certainly stay at again if visiting Catania.

everything! it is well-located, just 5 mins walking distance to the central station and the main bus stations to Syracuse, Taormina, etc. it is really clean and the room is very well cut, bed was in like a maisonette. breakfast was also good, sortiments are not bad to start the day. and the best part is that every staff member was really really, helpful, approachable and always smiles. we had a great stay here and would be happy to stay here again when we get lost to Catania in the future. we highly recommend this beautiful small hotel.

Room was big, having two floors, a couch, table and bathroom at the first floor and the bed at the upper floor as specified in the description of the room. Breakfast was ok to have something to eat before starting your day, The staff were very nice and helpful, giving us a lot of information about the city and what to do when we have checked in. The location was very close to the train and bus station(6 minutes of walking). You could also reach the old city center in about 20 minutes of walking.

What a nice hotel! The staff is friendly, polite, and incredibly helpful. The hotel is clean and has all you need. The rooms are spacious, and the bed is comfortable. We used Catania as a base and took day trips - there is parking you can book via the hotel just about 100 meters away. There are places to eat around the hotel and the centre of town is about 15 mins walk - super easy to get to. If ever in Catania again, we will definitely stay here!

I chose Art & Jazz because of its proximity to the bus and train stations. In the end a group of 8 of us gathered at the hotel and they arranged some cars to take us to our resort in Siracusa. Everyone was friendly. I shared a spacious two level room, with a big bathroom. Breakfast was nice, and they brought us cappuccinos in addition to the American coffee on the buffet. The staff sent us to an amazing restaurant around the corner for dinner.

This hotel is amazing! The staff was very nice. Our flight was diverted from Catania to Trapani so they waited for us to arrive until 5AM. The apartment was very spacious, it had everything you might need, it was super clean and the beds were very comfortable. Also the small yard inside the hotel is super cozy and quiet. The hotel has a perfect location, it’s five minutes away from everything, and it’s in the city center. I recommend Dimora De Mauro strongly!

Sadly we only got to spend 1 night at this fantastic hotel. It is located less than a 10 minute walk from the main square in Catania. The room itself was immaculately presented, the reception staff were very helpful, both in our booking and during our stay at this hotel. The only negative was in actually finding the hotel, we walked straight past the entrance to the hotel without noticing the sign.

We had the two bedroom and it does require a lot of stairs, but you are rewarded with a private terrace. Plenty of space and A/C in bedrooms and living areas. Very quiet for sleeping but a short walk to all historic sites. It does have slanted ceilings so you need to be careful on perimeter of rooms, especially if tall. Excellent location.

beautiful place, an authentic Sicilian house nicely renovated , great views from the balcony and sitting area , we had an upper floor apartment , very comfortable and spacious. perfect location. great stuff with a warm welcoming suggesting us nice places (we arrived little late at night)…. perfectly for a week stay …(we just had one night … but could’ve stayed more … really nice place)

Nice big apartment It was spotlessly clean. I liked the courtyard and first floor terrace which was very well laid out and peaceful. Staff were excellent and always available WiFi was good. You are about 30 mins walk from bus and train. Good little cafe across the road for breakfast or a snack.

Central hotel in centre, very pleasant, good lobby bar and terrace (the gentleman who was working Saturday, Sunday 7th, 8th, 9th June very patient and friendly he should get a mention!). Reception staff very helpful. Breakfast quite good cold and hot available and nice pastries selection. Weekends until 11am Rooms fairly standard size, big bathroom but shower leaked all over the floor couldn’t prevent it, don’t think glass shower door really met the floor. Toiletries okay. Room service 24hour (they will come in room to set it out so be dressed!!) No pool/spa but a gym Key card has to be in room to charge so if you only have one key you can only charge stuff overnight

Absolute gem in Catania! I’m surprised why this hotel is rated 4 stars when the service and amenities are surly 5 stars! Upon arriving, we were instantly greeted by a surprise upgrade to a junior sweet (room 721) with clear views of Etna volcano. The entire hotel is impeccably clean. Modern inviting furniture and ambience. The whole hotel smelled heavenly that I had to ask what kind of perfume diffuser they were using! Staff are so welcoming and speak multiple languages. Hotel is very centrally located. It’s a 5 minute walk from the city center with multiple restaurants nearby. Breakfast was adequate. The only thing missing is a live omelette station. But they provide scrambled eggs or hard boiled eggs among many other choices. They gave me the excellent option of checking out online without having to pass by the front desk. But I checked out the old-fashioned way and was gifted a bar of Modica chocolate which I think was a very thoughtful gesture. I had privately arranged for a taxi to pick us to the airport. But it never showed up. The hotel arranged for the a taxi for me which arrived in literally two minutes. I’m grateful for the save! I totally recommend this hotel and will be staying here again!

This is an excellent hotel which is located about a 15 minute walk to the central historic area of Cantania. My wife (Tracey) and I (Mick) stayed at the hotel for 11 nights and enjoyed each one of them. The staff are very professional with a fun and friendly manner. A big thanks go out to the front desk (reception) team who went above and beyond in helping us find our way around the city, especially assisting me get to the ground of local football team Cantania FC to watch them beat their local rivals ! My wife Tracey has to follow a gluten free/vegetarian diet, which to be honest is a little difficult in Sicilian restaurants. But the restaurant team did great in providing her with a decent meal. Many thanks go to the kitchen team. Our room was cozy and of good size plus having everything we needed and spotlessly clean It was a nice touch to be supplied with daily complimentary water and biscuits. So would we stay here again ? Well yes we would and have already recommended the hotel to family and friends. Plus I bring good luck to the local football team !

I particularly appreciated the ‘4 star’ services which enabled me to make up for the late arrival (24hrs) of my luggage, and the extremely helpful staff who were attentive to the well-being of every single customer. Special mention should be made of the receptionist, Pietro, who really helped me to collect my luggage by telephoning the airport, and the express courier service to speed up delivery. Some people who are used to 4-star service will find this normal, but I particularly appreciated his concern, his willingness to help me find a solution and his mischievous smile in the evening when he told me to ‘look in your room, you'll see if there's a surprise waiting for you... or not’. Thank you so much! ------------------- Caro Pietro, Non ho avuto modo di ringraziarti di persona il giorno della mia partenza. Spero che avrà l'opportunità di leggere il mio ringraziamento speciale su TripAdvisor. Grazie a tutto il team per la qualità dei vostri rispettivi servizi durante il nostro soggiorno. Dico sempre che “un grazie non costa nulla, ma può significare molto”. Vi auguro un buon fine settimana, Michaël

I would like to compliment the staff on duty upon our arrival! Micol and Paolo were at the front desk and after checking in our fight crew they easily handled all of our questions for going to Taormina. They called hotels, restaurants, made reservations and more. Then they gave suggestions of where to go and what to see in Taormina. We were only there for 24hrs and were going out immediately. Micol and Paolo were so sweet and caring and took very good care of us. They also got us train and bus schedules. We were even offered an espresso while we waited! I’ve been in many NH hotels all over Europe but these 2 staff personnel were exceptional at customer service. Compliments also to NH for hiring such wonderful and competent staff. Thank you Micol and Paolo for making our trip to Taormina so fantastic and memorable, especially since it was the last trip before retiring one of our crew! Oh and by the way the hotel itself is great! Mille grazie! Michelle

We stayed for just one night at the end of our holiday before flying out from Catania airport. The hotel is quite a challenge to find even though there are many signposts around the city. Our room was comfortable and had all we needed for a short stay. It was only a few minutes walk from the city centre and about 30 minutes drive around 8.30 am to the airport. There was a kettle and tea/coffee in the room but we had to ask for milk which came after a short wait. Would stay here again. The reception staff were very helpful with maps and directions and the breakfast on offer was comprehensive. We used the hotel garage overnight for our car. It is just across the street and cost 9 euros.

Excellent service from staff, value for money and amenities more than compensate for the slight disadvantage of being a little distance away, up a slope, from the center of Catania, For physically fit, though, it is only a ten minutes walk. Special mention should be made of Stefanie, in reception, who went out of the way to help us to plan our tours tp Taormina , Etna and Syracuse. The buffet breakfast is very good value for money, for 4 Euros a person, and is paid at the end of the stay. No record is kept and they depend your honesty to charge. Highly recommended.

The hotel was situated 10 mins walk from Via Etnea, the centre of Catania. The room was excellent and the bed extremely comfortable. We had a balcony which was a nice touch and the electric shutters ensured the room remained pitch black when required. We also had full Sky TV with every channel imaginable which was good for catching up on the football highlights! The breakfasts were superb. A fantastic variety of sweet and savoury and some great coffee. The staff spoke great English and were very helpful whenever we had a query. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

Highly recommend to everyone who want to stay at Catania as it was really value for money. The room was very cozy and the bed was the most comfortable one that I had stayed during the 17 days at Sicily. Also, the bath room was clean and the shower was the best. Convenient location as just 15 - 20 minutes walk to the historical city center and Via Etna. Breakfast was good with lots of variety and fresh fruit was available. Also, the staff was helpful and nice too. You won't be regret if you choose this hotel.

We would definitely stay here again if returning to Catania. The hotel is a little away from the main area but close enough to everything. Our room was spacious as was the bathroom and spotlessly clean. The plus point was having a small balcony and a kettle in the room. However the tea tray wasn’t replenished properly each day. A wide variety of food was available for breakfast. All the staff were friendly and efficient and after check out we were able to leave our luggage to collect later in the day.

The location of the hotel as well as its atmosphere were amazing. I can say that the people from the staff - Massimo, Giuseppe, Jessica, Stefania from the breakfast area, and everyone else of these amazing people were the most helpful I saw in my trips. For example, they arrange the things when I came very early in the morning with my son, when the standard check in was at 3 PM. They managed to give us our room at 9.30 at no additional cost! Thank you very much dear team! Your attitude is more than a welcoming and all of you are such a great persons! I can write many more things that I was impressed of about this hotel, but my review became very long anyways, so: I strongly recommend this hotel for a beautiful stay in Catania! Thank you, people!

Excellent communication with the property via email before I arrived. As a solo traveler, I booked a single room. It was perfectly adequate to my needs - a twin bed, large window, desk and end table, and large bathroom. The room was clean and came with plenty of towels. The wifi signal was strong throughout the hotel. Excellent location, within easy walking distance of many must-see tourist sights and perfectly safe after dark. Also convenient to the metro. Staff at the front desk (which is staffed 24-hours) were very helpful. A wide variety of sweet and savory food offered for breakfast, plus fresh coffee, with the option to eat outside on the terrace. The hotel is on the fourth floor but the elevator works great. Overall, it exceeded my expectations and I would definitely stay here again.

The staff was excellent! Manuela, Jessica, Giuseppe and Massimo were all so helpful with any questions we had. They were always pleasant and very accommodating to our every need. Stephania, our breakfast hostess was amazing! She was so friendly and sweet! The location was perfect! Located right in the historical area, so we could walk to restaurants, shopping and sightseeing! Parking is available right on the property which was definitely a plus for us since we rented a car and took a couple of day trips. We loved it and would stay there again!

I can't say enough about this place. It is so well located that we were able to walk to everything. It is located in what was once a palace and the decor reflects that. The staff at the front desk, especially Gessica, were amazing. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The breakfast had quite a good assortment of foods. In particular the cakes and tortes, handmade by Stefania, were truly delicious and special. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone staying in Catania.

I loved absolutely everything about this hotel! It is located in the centre, easy to find and comfortable walk from the station. Everyone was welcoming, friendly and helpful and the breakfast was fresh and just about perfect to start the day with. I stayed in their flat - spacious and beautiful, with a nice view of their courtyard- could not have asked for anything more for my first experience in Catania! Would definitely stay there again if I return!

We were here for just one night with a tour. Centrally located. Upon entering, the interior is bright and light limestone. The gentleman at the front desk spoke English and was efficient and helpful. All the rooms are different. Even though ours was near a staircase. It was quiet. Our room was large and modern, clean and had a comfortable bed. There was even a small foyer. The bathroom was well laid out, it had hooks ( which seems unusual in Sicily). Amenities included wifi, safe, refrigerator, and wall mounted bathwash and handwash (Feel WEllness brand). There is also a small gym with Technogym equipment. +, and small outdoor deck. Note: There is no a/c in the gym. There was only one outlet in the room under the desk. The room is showing it's age. Part of the fabric by the headboard was missing and there were some stains on the little loveseat by the entrance. Breakfast buffet was included with our room. It included make your own waffle or pancake/crepe machines. The highlight for me was a Huron juicer. They had prepared items for you to press: cucumber, fennel, carrots, ginger, and lime. There was also a good bar in the hotel, but it closes early.

Amazing hotel from moment checked in were given a room upgrade and the man on reception helpfully described some places we might want to visit whilst in Catania. The room was definitely unique but spacious, comfortable and clean and well maintained throughout our stay. The location is centrally located and close to main things to see in Catania and near bus and train station if visiting Syracuse etc. Breakfast was amazing they literally offer every kind of breakfast you could want from Prossecco to pancakes or even some local options highly reccomend. The gym was functional (though the treadmill might need a service) and a great space to get some exercise after so much pizza and pasta! All in all a wonderful stay, really friendly staff and couldn't reccomended more highly.

This is a terrific hotel in a historic building but has recently been remodeled to be quite modern. The rooms are quite large especially for Europe and the breakfast is excellent. The bartender Antonio made very good drinks and brought an amazing array of snacks to enjoy...and was very friendly. The breakfast staff was very prompt with coffee options and kept all the selections well stocked. The hotel is perfectly located as well as it was an easy 10 minute walk to the city center where most of the sights are and you stroll down the main pedestrian shopping street Via Etnea. Parking is easy in a lot just a few blocks away.

The hotel is within easy walking distance of the airport bus stop if you haven’t much baggage. It’s very close to the metro station which is one stop from the train station. This was very convenient for me since I used Catania as a base to explore Taormina and Siracusa. It is around 15 minutes walk from the duomo and main tourist sites. The restaurant behind the hotel had live music outdoors but it was quiet by 11 pm. The breakfast buffet was very good with a fine array of choices. Management was very prompt in replying to queries on WhatsApp. Highly recommended.

The hotel was beyond what we expected. Their happy hour with Antonio behind the bar was a Sicilian experience that words could never describe. He suggested the best drinks during and after happy hours. We got an unexpected upgrade to a room that was so beautiful… it felt like a room for royals. The comfort level was way above what we had booked. The front desk was always helpful. I need to mention that we had a bathroom door that was unique to Catania and its historical significance. We loved our stay here. Highly recommend the hotel, and the bar 😍

Clean, good breakfast, staff professional and friendly. Location is good in that it’s close to main shopping area and tourist attractions. Relaxing courtyard area. I didn’t check out the pool .

For a last minute booking I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the booking was. I was only there for a very quick turn around to catch an early flight and the staff could not have been more accommodating. They knew because of my early departure I would not get the included breakfast so the morning desk clerk made me a coffee and allowed me to get a biscuit with jam. That was very unexpected, but much appreciated. As for the room, it far exceeded my expectations. Very high quality with shower amenities included. The water pressure in the shower was the best I've ever experienced. I would definitely stay here again.

Although a little off the beaten track (which had its advantages) the hotel was well situated for exploring the city. Local restaurants, a lovely gelato bar and the fascinating market were all close by. The staff were welcoming from start to finish, the food and drink great and breakfasts first class with a wide selection of fresh Sicilian delights which varied every day. If we came back to Catania (this was our first ever visit to this part of Italy) this is where we would stay...

lovely property, perfect for what we needed. we were out and about a lot but this was only a short walk to the train station and not far from the busy town streets. Hotel beds were so comfy slept amazingly. breakfast in the morning was yummy, selection of croissants :) all staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. our room was always tidy the cleaner did a wonderful job and we had a balcony with a lovely view.

The location was good with easy access to the bus stop to get to and from the airport. It was a short walk to the centre of town. The staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfasts had a good selection of food and in the evening there was a bar and restaurant with good food on offer. There were plentiful sitting areas in the communal areas. Our room was spacious and comfortable.

The reception areas and welcome were first-class. Advice on parking and checking-in were straightforward. Our room was a good size, with a very comfortable bed and good facilities. We'd booked the rooftop restaurant for an evening meal and the view was great. Too late and cold to be outside but it was very cosy and ambient inside and the wine and meal were delicious! The terrace adjoining the restaurant was a very welcome suntrap for a great breakfast the next morning.

Loved this hotel as bookends for our 10-day trip to Sicily. Luxurious, spacious room with a balcony was perfect. Great shower! The staff was welcoming and easy to communicate with. They arranged taxi service to the airport, and it was 25 euros. Delicious breakfast included on the rooftop with nice views. Great location. We walked to the market and explored the city easily. Took a day trip to Mt. Etna from here using a private tour guide.

Hotel was very nice and clean! Staff were helpful and complimentary breakfast on the rooftop was beautiful. I would totally stay here again. Only suggestion I have to make the hotel better is to not make the room doors slam when people enter/exit their rooms. My wife and I were woken up 3-4 times because room doors were slamming after 11pm and midnight.

So glad we picked this hotel. Beautiful property and very nice and helpful staff at desk. We could walk along the seaside, great restaurants, so nice and safe. The excursions we did picked us up at the hotel too. The rooftop bar was a great addition too.

Hotel is very clean, rooms are quite big and comfortable, stuff is very friendly and helpful, breakfast was nice. Good price for two young friends. You have nice beach club right opposite of the street.

I like quirky, bijou hotels. This one was perfect. It isn't hard to find on Google Maps, but it does hide behind a big, (to some perhaps uninviting) street door where you buzz for access. Walk down the passage and take the stairs to lift. The hotel is on the first and second floor of the building. Once through the door, you enter another world. The receptionists Simone & Anastasia speak several languages and all the staff are really lovely, friendly and helpful. All the walls - bedrooms, corridors and public rooms feature original artworks. It's as if you are a private art gallery. Bedrooms have ornate, high ceilings which have been beautifully restored. The rooms are fine, beds were comfortable but remember this isn't a hotel where you are going to spend your day. Continental breakfast had a good range of choices and could be eaten indoors or al fresco on the terrace with the Jacaranda blossom. We were leaving on a very late flight and the hotel was happy for us to leave our luggage, relax on the conference room settees and use their facilities for a wash after checkout while waiting for our departure. It's well situated on bus routes including the Alibus to the airport. There are plenty of opportunities for food and drink close by. I'd book again if returning to Catania.

Location: Ideal for exploring Catania! Right next to the Chiosco della Musica, 5 minutes’ walk from Piazza Stesicoro and about 10 minutes from Piazza del Duomo. Surrounded by great restaurants and attractions. It’s also just a 20-minute walk from Catania Centrale train station if you prefer walking instead of taking a bus or taxi. Staff: The receptionists were exceptional — kind, friendly, and always ready to help with tips on what to see and where to eat. Their hospitality made my stay feel very welcoming. Room: Spacious, clean, and well-equipped with more amenities than I needed. Even the bathroom was roomy, which was a big plus. My room opened onto the common balcony, yet it was quiet and peaceful — I slept like a baby every night. What could be improved: The elevator is the traditional old-style kind, with an extra inner door. It can be a bit unusual at first, especially with luggage, but it’s totally manageable. Since I was on the second floor, I mostly enjoyed using the stairs and only needed the elevator for my bags.

I stayed here for 3 nights and found the hotel room very comfortable and spacious. The rooms are very typical of Italy set in an old historic hotel. The hotel is on the main road (via Etna) and next to Bellini Gardens. The hotel itself is on the first floor. You need to buzz the intercom from the main road for the reception person to let you into a foyer which then leads you to stairs to go up to the hotel. it is very secure. There are lots of restaurants and shops near by and the hotel is not far to walk to the main square. There is also an excellent market close by. I loved the outdoor patio at the back of the hotel where the breakfast area is set up. The breakfast itself was great and plenty. The staff are very friendly. This hotel was definitely good value and close to everything. I would stay here again.

Hotel is well positioned with easy access by public transport from either station or airport. It has an unassuming street entrance and a call button to gain entry. Don't be put off! Take the lift to reception and enter a different world. The staff are all very helpful especially Simone & Anastasia in reception. Breakfast has good choices and there is plenty. Eating it on the terrace with the trees in blossom is idyllic. The photo is accurate. The rooms are all airy with beautifully decorated ceilings and throughout the hotel there is interesting art work; it's like being in a miniature gallery! This hotel is a hidden jewel.

I had a good impression of the hotel. I stayed for just three days. The biggest advantage is the location and the price. The hotel is conveniently located for getting to the main attractions, there’s a lovely park nearby, and a Lidl within walking distance. Yes, the room and the bed are small, but I only came back to the room in the evening, so it didn’t affect my overall experience. The bathroom was clean, the air conditioning worked well, I kept it on overnight and closed the windows to keep the mosquitoes out. For my short trip, this hotel was a perfect fit.

I had the pleasure of staying at Etnea Boutique Hotel and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and comfortable experience in the heart of Catania. The location is simply perfect: situated on the central Via Etnea, it allows you to walk to the city’s main attractions, such as the Duomo, Teatro Bellini, and Villa Bellini. Despite being right in the center, the hotel guarantees peace and relaxation thanks to excellent soundproofing in the rooms. The rooms are tastefully furnished, with a modern style and elegant touches of Sicilian tradition. Every detail is carefully curated: from the warm colors of the decor to the impeccable cleanliness. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom spacious and fully equipped. Another great strength is definitely the staff's kindness. Welcoming, professional, and always available, they were ready to offer advice on restaurants, excursions, and hidden local gems. Breakfast is varied and abundant, with fresh products, traditional sweets, and savory options as well. A perfect way to start the day.

We stayed at Etnea Boutique Hotel for a long weekend in Catania, and it turned out to be a great choice. The location is simply perfect: right in the historic center on Via Etnea, just a short walk from everything – Piazza Duomo, the fish market, restaurants, and public transport stops. The hotel is set in an elegant historic building, with high ceilings and preserved frescoes that add charm, while the rooms are modern, well-furnished, and above all, very clean. Our room was spacious, with a comfortable bed, newly renovated bathroom, and effective air conditioning (very welcome in the Sicilian heat!). Another highlight was definitely the staff: kind, helpful, and professional. They welcomed us warmly and gave us great recommendations for places to eat and things to see nearby. Breakfast was good, with several options even for people with dietary restrictions. It could perhaps include a few more local specialties, but overall it was more than satisfying

The hotel was better than we had expected. Large ceilings in the rooms and a balcony overlooking the streets. The location was perfect for a 2 day short stay in Catania. Within walking distance of the main sites and shops. The staff recommended a nice restaurant our 1st night called Curtigghiu, and we stayed close by after the meal and had a few beers until the early hours, all of which was within walking distance of the Hotel. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean. Breakfast room decor was really good and the omelettes were a satisfying meal to start the day and for the hot weather. Felt safe in Cantania and there was a good bit of police presence. Would certainly recommend the Hotel.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the historic Palazzo San Demetrio (hotel location is on second floor) with a balcony overlooking the lively Via Etnea. Our high-ceilinged room was very comfortable, and the reception staff very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast room overlooks the Piazza dei Quattro Canti at the corner of Via Etnea and Via Sangiuliano. The hotel location could hardly be more central. Croissants fresh from the oven, a buffet of Sicilian sweet and savoury breakfast choices, excellent coffee, and a great selection of made-to-order dishes (omelettes, scrambled eggs, pancakes) got us off to a great start in the morning.

Thoroughly enjoyed our 7 night stay here at the Etnea Boutique Hotel. The staff are amazing, so kind and so helpful. The breakfast room is full of tasty delights plus an option of freshly cooked breakfast items. The food is delicious and the breakfast room is gorgeous! Spotless and spacious rooms. Love the high ceilings in this former palace. The street noise did require the use of ear plugs much like any hotels located in a noisy city. The location is excellent. Everything in walking distance. Felt very safe and cared for at this hotel. I would definitely stay here again.

I was pleasantly surprised at how quiet the room was, especially since it is RIGHT NEXT TO the Duomo. Amazing location! Unbeatable view right over the piazza to the cathedral. It was an easy walk to the bus station to go to Palermo too. The staff was very friendly and kind and helpful, both the front desk staff and the cleaning staff I encountered were very kind and made me feel welcome and comfortable. Wifi was good. Beds super comfy. The room was large and clean and smelled nice and again, SO quiet! I can't imagine going anywhere else when I return to Catania.

I think I got lucky! Because I booked a hotel room for the night at a very good price! The view from the window was unbeatable! The staff was friendly, check-in and check-out were quick. The room was clean, the mattress and pillows were comfortable. Staying in the heart of Catania is a special atmosphere! Close to other attractions, as well as the Alibus bus stop, if you plan to get to Catania airport that way!

I really enjoyed my stay here. Very near the Elephant Fountain in the Piazza del Duomo, the location was perfect for my adventures. The staff at the 24-hour front desk were all friendly and welcoming. I planned many activities while I was in Catania so it was nice to come ‘home’ to a comfortable bed and quiet room.

Location couldn't be better, right next to the Cathedral and the main attractions. Hotel is a bit outdated, but the bathroom had been modernised which we appreciated. Staff was really kind and helped us carry our luggage through the stairs to get to our room.

Great location- the Piazza Paolo Borsellini made out day trips to Syracuse, Noto, and the adjacent beach villages much easier. All sights are at a walkable distance so we could go back to the hotel and have some rest. The staff is helpful and friendly!

We visited Stesicorea Palace for 4 nights last July and our stay at the hotel was amazing. On the day we arrived, we were greeted by Orazio at the reception. We were a bit lost since we arrived on a Sunday and the city in the morning was a bit quiet but Orazio showed us our room and were can go during our stay. The room was spacious, always clean and clean towels were supplied everyday. When we were unsure where to go in the morning, the reception staff were always so helpful. The location couldn't be any better as it is in the city centre opposite to where the markets are every day. And it is also close to the bus station so it was really easy to travel. We also booked our transfers to Etnaland and back to the airport from the hotel and at a cheap price compared to other taxis we asked during our stay. Sice our flight back was really late we checked out in the morning but the hotel staff offered to keep our luggages till we head back to the airport. Breakfast was also very good. :)

Surprisingly great location, yes it has character and the room we has had 1 queen and 2 single. Very clean, crisp linen and towels. High ceilings Very spacious, a balcony with the view of the PLAZA. I love the buzz of the people and cars below as I felt very European. Walking distance to the shops and restaurants, definitely need a car to Mt Etna but you can see it from 10mt from the hotel. The host with a beautiful name Archangle was extremely welcoming and friendly. Although this building looks old but so is Catania so there is no lifts but the walk up was ok.

The location is very close to the city center, port, and bus station There are many shops, restaurants and cafes near the hotel There are also tour companies near the hotel The price compared to the location and room size is considered very cheap and economical The building is considered historic and staying in it takes you back to the seventies and eighties The hotel is family run and the staff were friendly and generous

Very nice place and very, very kindly people. Stesicorea Palace is located in historical center of Catania. Very easy to find. Bus stop to the airport is infront of the hotel (Alibus in every 25 minutes). Highly recommended the hotel! In the heart of Catania! I booked a room with a parkview, they give us a room with a view to the Piazza Stesicoro which was great! (10/10)

The property is in an excellent place to go to especially if you would like to visit the mercato and the shops around, it is in the central. The place was very clean and at a well standard. Thank you to one if the employees Orazio, for being so patient and helpful to us, he’s very kind person and down to earth.
