The beds were really old, like you laid in a hole. The warm water came after at least 5 minutes in the shower. The breakfast was really nice and the service during check-in was perfect.

The hotel is in a great location just down the street from the main square. It is in an older building - the pictures on the site accurately depict what it looks like. The rooms are large and clean. The staff is lovely, and the breakfast is a nice perk. The front desk is open 24/7 which makes coming and going super easy. Very close to all the main sights in Catania.

The hotel was lovely and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Just be aware, although the hotel says it has a bar, it doesn't, there is a fridge in the foyer where you can grab a soft drink and pay at the desk, but this is it. I also think you can get coffees from there, but each time I asked,I was told the bar was closed! Overall, the hotel was lovely and the breakfasts were amazing. Would definitely return to this hotel.

Super helpful and nice staff. Oscar was awesome - at the front desk, helping with the car and being available. Nice breakfast. Huge room. Walkable to almost everywhere. Small shops for backery and deli goods right on the msin street. Bus to the airport almost at your doorstep.

A bar just downstairs and so noisy even at 2am. Try to avoid unless you are someone wanna party all night long. And prepare to bring your luggage up to third floor.

No worries re cleanliness, or friendliness of staff. Julia and Oscar particularly worthy of mention. Breakfast is truly amazing. Variety and quality superb. It’s not easy to access (not well shown once you get there), and the stairs are a real killer. Our room was ok but very unpreposessing. Short walk to Via Etnaea and several reswtaurants. Also very cdonvenient for the airport bus stop (60 paces!)

Checked in to hotel which was kinda hard to find, since its entrance was down a side street. Have to find the hotels name on the buzz in and the let you through the big wooden doors. Nice inside the courtyard you have to follow the signs to get to the front desk up three flights of stair. (No lift available) checking in was easy and the room was very nice with really cool architecture on the ceiling! Breakfast was great and free so that was a plus. Bad part no late check out past 11am. So up and out. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

The hotel is old but clean and very convenient to all the central areas of interest. The staff was great especially Angela! She was the most helpful and friendly person I met this vacation. Always a smile and volunteered to carry our luggage (in fact insisted) up the 70 steps to the room. She helped park our rental car in the courtyard and answered all our questions. I can not remember meeting a hotel staff member this friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good and served up on a rooftop terrace. The room was simple ( we did only book a basic room) but the shower stall was very small. You could not bend over to pick something up! They had daily cleaning and 24 hour reception which was nice. This place is not for someone who doesn’t like going up and down steps as there are a lot. The tv had mainly shopping network stations and nothing in English and I was not able to hook up my Roku that I brought from home. If it wasn’t for Angela I would rate it much lower.

8/10

very friendly and helpful staff. Big room. Uncomfortable bed. Fairly easy to find. 10 minute walk from the station.Airport bus picks up across the road. Close to shops, eateries and attractions. 68 stairs from the street to reception and no lifts. Entrance is behind a locked (after hours) external street door and we never found out how to enter the hotel out of hours, we simply didnt go out at night. Staff had limited English

Fantastisk service. Jättefint läge. Vackra rum. Det var många trappor utan hiss. För oss gjorde det inget, men kan vara svårt om man har mycket packning eller små barn.
