This was an extraordinary hotel in the heart of Catania. Across the street is a La Rinascente. (Italy’s Major Department Store) Max Mara and Foot Locker are on the first floor before you enter and Sephora is across the street. The rooms are spacious, with an amazing bed and deep soaker tub. The price tag is a steep, I was fortunate that I had Expedia Credit, I will say if I was not on a budget I would easily stay here and pay the price. It was worth every penny!

We really liked this property. Very convenient to shopping (higher end and tourist items) and the historical sites. excellent restaurants at different price points also. The bed seemed firm initially, but my back and hip discomfort went away after the first night! Makes me rethink my sleep options back home! Highly recommend.

A first-class hotel in the Centre of Catania, the staff were professional and friendly in all areas of the hotel. Our room was amazing, and the breakfast was great in the lovely dining area. The hotel is located in the centre of town, so expect the usual city noises. We would definitely return to this hotel with no hesitation.

A hotel gem

The location in Catania is ideal - at the beginning of Via Etnea, the main shopping street, within a short walking distance from the Metro. Rooms are large and comfortable, the rooftop restaurant has excellent service and great food.

I had a great stay at this hotel. Rita did an absolutely outstanding job at check-in. She was extremely welcoming and spent extra time recommending dining options in the area. The room was clean and spacious. The view - amazing. The location couldn't be more perfect - it's right on the main pedestrian street with easy access to everything. All the staff were courteous and pleasant. If I ever come back to Catania, I would stay here again.
