This hotel is perfectly located near public transport (train, bus) and the city center at a quiet city square. The staff is extremely nice and helpful (tips about the highlights of the city, etc.) and breakfast was amazing! I highly recommend.

A really lovely place to stay for a couple of nights in Catania. Comfortable bed and big bathroom. Breakfast was delicious and there's a lovely terrace too. A really friendly welcome and definitely recommended.
Verified review

8/10 Very good

Pleasant b&b on the 1st floor of an old building. Although our room overlooked the noisy street, the French windows and shutters kept the room pretty quiet. Away from the heart of the tourist area, it is only a 5 min walk from the airport bus stop, and 15 mins from the excellent 1943 museum.

Emanuele went well above what any other hotel manager typically does. As a first time visitor to Italy/Sicily, he helped me coordinate transportation and gave me recommendations for things to do while I was in Catania. He and his staff made an excellent breakfast and cappuccino. I highly recommend this hotel.

The host is incredibly kind and helpful. The room facilities are flawless; the bed is spotless and very comfortable. The breakfast is abundant, and there is an elevator. Just turn left downstairs and walk a short distance to reach the main attractions. Great value for money, with the only minor drawback being the lack of an exhaust fan in the bathroom. Highly recommended!
