8/10 Very good

we had a one night stay in the Manganelli Palace. The staff were exceptionally helpfull and friendly, which made up for the rather run down internal condition of the room and some of the corridors. My bathroom in particular was in need of a refurbishment as there was black mould around the bath. It was clean but run down. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast good. I would stay here again because it is so centrally located and the staff were so lovely.

Street signs do not help to locate the property. The entrance does not look even close to the picture you show. Front desk personnel was helpful, especially Jessica. Very unfortunately at our next stop after 4 days at this facility we discovered items missing, specifically money. We did not go back to complain; we had no extra time. Live and learn I guess.

Great location!

But in a very torn down city. Rooms are old and toilets need a refirbish. Wonderful staff and breakfast.

Fine location for a night

Location was fine, close to the city center. The staff was very friendly and accomodating. The facilities are on the older side. The view from the room was straight toward a wall on the single window we had.

Thought the location was excellent, within easy walking distance to the attractions. The only downside was that the parking was a bit of a challenge. There’s not much available close to the hotel and you have to be lucky to find a decent spot.

8/10 Very good

Superb location for sightseeing a few minutes walk from Via Etna, actually street was a bit scruffy, though that’s a thing in Catania. The breakfast was really good with a nice selection and lovely lady doing the coffee and replenishing supplies. The roof terrace was gorgeous at sunset. But our room was run down and the bathroom was mouldy and the bsthroom floor was constantly drenched, even when we arrived and hadn’t touched a tap.

Excellent costumer service, Reception staff were very warm , welcoming, helpful, and very comunicative. Cleanness was excellent too . The ladies , always with the smile in their face . The breakfast section felt very homey , simple but fitful. Stefania has an excellent costumer service skills. This hotel definitely deserves five stars for all the beautiful staff . Definitely will come back again.

With a bit of more maintenance.....

Staff very helpful and professional. The structure lacks of regular maintenance, high level of humidity and some stains here and there. Lovely small rooftop usable more in Spring and Summer though. Possibility of parking the car providing you book the slot in advance. Very central.

May be for one night

We had room at 3rth floor and my opinion is based on that room. Locatiopn is very good but that's all. One night hotel, not two. I can't imagine to stay in summer because the air condition blow air directly to the bed. Wc didn't flash, and of the story!

Staff, location (including outdoor patio & sitting room), and breakfast were all wonderful. Bed was comfortable & bathroom well-appointed. Only criticism is that our space would have benefited from some updates to replace worn, soiled carpet and remove mildew & discolorations in the bathroom.

6/10 Good

Room was okay, and breakfast was very good. A really nice terrace for breakfast. Our bed was rather firm, and the design of the shower in bathtub made it very difficult to shower without water getting all over the floor. The elevators were small and required one elevator to get to the lobby on the 4th floor, and a second elevator to get to the room on the 3rd floor. You had to then go up to the 4th floor and switch elevators to leave the hotel.
