Hotel del Centro was our first stop in Italy after a very long flight from Australia. Checkin was somewhat confusing as the apartments are situated within a building with other businesses / occupancies. Once located (level 4 from memory), the reception staff were very friendly and accommodating. Although you could get a lift to the reception, you then had to walk 2 flights of steep stairs to your room. The room was fairly spacious for 3 adults but not very modern. Bathroom was presentable and beds were reasonably comfortable. The hotel was within walking distance of the old town near the port where there were many options available for dining. Parking was an issue as there is very limited and unsecured on street parking, but we eventually found a secured parking area within walking distance for $25EUR for the night. Yes expensive! Paid breakfast was available but we had to leave early next morning so we didn't opt for that. For an overnight stay, our overall experience was good. With more research, we may have found something more convenient an inexpensive.

Quaint hotel.
It is a very well kept quaint hotel. You could say it's vintage. The front desk service was outstanding. The room is large enough and the bathroom was okay. I wished it had a kettle for tea or a refrigerator, but to no avail.

After reading reviews I guess I expected more from this hotel. The rooms were ok. The rooms were very warm as they turn the air off when you leave every time because you have to give them your room key. Being it was July we would look fwd to going back to a cool room and it was hot. I know Italy isn’t big on Ac but all our other hotels had great AC

Reporting the news…
There are some things you should know that are uncommon with this hotel: 1) There is air conditioning, but you have no control. The front desk turns it on and off at your request. It is cool, but not cold. 2) The front desk keeps your room key when you leave the room. I never learned why. 3) The elevator is very European (very very small) 4) Parking is at the central train station. You will want to park here. It is safe but expensive. Street parking technically exists, but very erratic and chaotic. No car? No problems.

Hotel Del Centro Stay
This hotel is tired but functional. Pro - Well located close to the station and in walking distance of lots of handy places. Room was large and airy. Reception staff 24/7 and all I encountered were pleasant. Cons Very basic. The bed was an old, soft mattress and rickety frame. Air con had to be requested on/off via reception and could not be controlled from the room. The noise was significant - I was woken more than once, including in the morning by staff. My room was next to the cleaning facilities room/cupboard; the team start early and noisily. Hot water was inconsistent. Room keys had to be left with reception whenever you left the hotel - didn’t necessarily bother me but I have never encountered this before. Fine for a short stay but I would be disappointed if I was spending more than 2 nights here, likely wouldn’t return for longer.

This hotel is in an excellent location if you like to walk to the historical sites. And there are many. But for the hop/on:hop/off buses and trolley trains it’s a hike. I really wanted to go to the catacombs but it was a 38 minute walk. This is an older building so furniture and bedding are old and uncomfortable. You have to ask for air conditioning or they keep it off. 5euro breakfast was nice but since it was all pastry, cereal, ham & cheese it should have been included in price. My room was very dark so I had to keep overhead lights on. Be sure to ask for a large window if you decide to stay there

Friendly and super clean. 8-10 min to train and bus station. Across the street from market. The rooms are older and there are a few steps as older blogs but there is an elevator to second floor after nice lobby with 5 steps. Staff 24 hr. Marco and Salvatore front desk welcoming and helpful. They opened microwave for us to warm snack. There is bkfst 7:40-20:40a that looks good but our schedule didn't match. Easy walk to the Mercado foods and to Quattro canti and Massimo opera. Went to every place trapani and Cefalù and Montreale and museums as so close to station. They held bag while we went to Taormina and returned to stay more night. The only misfit is that bus Roma has a homeless lady but maybe that will change. It is safe and parallel to marqueda so one can walk around

At the outset, yes, I would stay here again. On the plus side, it’s conveniently located close to the station and a short walk from much else. The staff was very nice and someone is at the desk 24x7. One the downside, the hotel’s one-time grandure is history and there’s nothing “nice” about it. If you’re OK with that, then you’ll enjoy a nice, functional stay.

Great location and loved the classic rooms with high ceilings. Could walk almost everywhere and convenient to train station when we needed public transportation and airport access. Staff was very attentive and helpful. The low rating was due to minimal connectivity via WI-FI, extremely small shower with mold, and air conditioner that worked but had to call front desk to turn it on/off. They did not leave the control in the room. Happily it was not extremely hot when we were there.
