Pleasant Stay
Although the reception is not at street level, the staff are friendly and helpful. I will miss my capuccino served with a smile in the morning and the warm croissant. The hotel is well situated with a nice view of Etna.

Catania stay
Hotel was good, decent location. The bed was good and firm, shower was fine, breakfast basic but decent. Staff really pleasant. There was a lack of sockets for charging and the wi-fi wasn't great. The room had a small balcony and the building was lovely.

Stay away
They could not find our reservation. I have booked a triple room for 74 €, we got a double for me, my wife and our teen daughter. It cost 80 € for one night. It is cold everywhere in this "hotel", the guests had breakfast with their jackets on. The breakfast is ridiculous, you'd better eat somewhere outside. The shower was a disaster, the only good thing there was plenty of hot water.

The hotel entrance is so wild – guests have to ring the bell for door to open and then go upstairs with a very small elevator; the rooms that face the main road are terribly noise. Breakfast is too basic – the same every day. No extra socket in room to charge phone/computer. The property needs major modernisation.

Worst breakfast ever. Long life milk. No fruit or cereal. Just packets of biscuits, processed ham cheese, sliced white bread. I had a yoghurt. Room was large but smelt of smoke

Central hotel, very near airport bus stop and principal shopping street. Lots of good restaurants nearby in all price ranges. Hotel is old fashioned in a good way but breakfast is no more than acceptable.

Family run charm
The location of this hotel is ideal. Many cafes and shops nearby also a beautiful park. The very lively food + more market is at the end of the street. Also the stop for ALIbus to & from the Airport is very close. This is a family run hotel and they make you feel right at home.

Cute but a little tired
The hotel is fine, if a little run down. The night clerks were quite friendly and recommended a good restaurant nearby. The room was big but the toilet made a very loud and long moaning sound when flushed. The high and ornately decorated ceiling was a highlight. The WiFi didn’t really work for me.

A welcome holiday!
Hotel is very clean, and its location is excellent as it is near all that is needed during a holiday: bus terminus, train station and to the shopping centre. I gladly recommend this Hotel to who intends to visit Catania I would gladly make use of it again myself.

beautiful hotel but be aware.
Hotel and service was great. Only two things made it unpleasant. 1. WiFi service was the worst I've experienced in Italy. 2. I was overcharged one day but couldn't communicate that to the lady and was late getting to the train station. I even pulled up my confirmation on my phone showing the daily rate and total. Not pleased.
