At first glance, the outside looks nothing special, but push open that heavy front door and you are in another world. Very elegant surroundings. Extremely friendly staff who go out of their way to help, Valerie and Santo get a special mention, no least for putting up with our dodgy Italian. The rooms were of a good size, beds very... More

This hotel is run by very helpful people who are interested in making your stay their most important agenda. We had them reconfirm our airline reservations and book seats for us since we had trouble with them. When it was time to leave...at 4:15AM..they made sure we were checked out and our car was ready for us out front. Our... More

We only stayed one night in this hotel in a doubleroom which was spacious enough. The bathrrom was nice too. The stuff was friendly and helpful. The breakfast offs a huge choice: cereals, fruits, different teas, cheese, prosciutto, salami, jam, differrent cakes, croissants, etc. Unfortunately we did not sleep,well in this hotel at all as throughout the night we were...

Our room had a balcony, and all the usual features you would expect. A nice touch was the free soft drinks only mini bar that... More

We did not expect more than average from this hotel, after having read the comments on it. But we were surprised, initially by the competent staff at the reception desk and further on by the relaxed atmosphere in the house. Most of all, we were overwhelmed by the quality of the restaurant Il Cuciniere, which servings are classy and original... More

Decided to drive from the airport, this was like a James Bond movie. Narrow streets, crazy traffic, crazy Sicilian drivers, major challenge. Don't do it without a GPS. The Hotel was a saviour, a sea of calm in a world of pain. Staff were very welcoming and charming, room was comfortable, modern and very clean. Bathroom was also clean and... More

Really good area located next to everything. Nice room. Friendly staff. The lady at the front desk recommended Salvia for Arancino, it was packed so I ended up going next door, the Arancini was amazing. Places in Catania can be very hard to find, i noticed this is a problem on a lot of reviews. I went through similar problems... More

We booked this as our last night, close to the airport for an early flight - mistake. Took an age to find due to complicated one-way roads and poor signs Stopped to get directions from a policeman, raised eyebrows and a warning to keep our doors locked, including the boot in case traffic stopped and we would be 'burgled'.
