Only 7 minute walk to the cathedral, main square, restaurants, shops...feel like the locals as you walk the streets, everything is within your reach. Silvia at the reception was so wonderful, she went out of her way in helping four ladies get to their rental car. Silvia is a gem !! Thanks from Marissa,Ana,Nancy,Linda

We had a huge appartment with a balcony with etna view and a kitchen. Nice hosts, good recommendations for dinner. The b&b is very central close to a very nice piazza, sometimes it can be a bit loud during the night.

We stayed in two different apartments for a total of 3 nights (only booked 2, but decided to stay an extra night, that's how great it was!),... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay here. We attended the Federico II language school and this was a convenient location, not only for the school, but for sightseeing. All of the attractions in Catania were within walking distance and the staff was very helpful with recommendations for dining and attractions. We took advantage of the wonderful and unique daily...

This B&B is ideally located just a short walk from all the major sites in the centro storico. We had some trouble finding it as it was our first trip to Catania, but someone from the B&B came out to find us and guide us in. We were welcomed with a cup of tea and an introduction to the city.... More

Located within a five minute walk from La Piazza Duomo, B&B Globetrotter made for a perfect base camp to explore the gorgeous city. Surrounded by the vibrancy of the Catanesi markets, the Globetrotter is equally as colourful and unique, filled with beautiful old art books and a bright décor. The bathroom and kitchenette were clean and the beds quite comfy.... More

We stayed three nights at the B&B Globetrotter in Catania and had a very pleasant time. The B&B is very nicely set and decorated and located right next to the city historical center. The staff that welcomed us was extremely friendly and spoke several languages. They called the owner of the Palazzo Biscaro so that we could visit it, they... More
