This property is in the PERFECT location for exploring the main sites of Catania, including the main squares, via Etna and the fish market. The host was super helpful and available via WhatsApp whenever needed. It's not a luxury property but the room was big, the bed was comfortable and it was fantastic value for money.

Perfect location

Perfect location right in the centre of the old city. The rooms are on the first floor and there is no escalator, so a short climb up with your luggage is unavoidable. We did the check-in on our own and throughout the 2 nights that we stayed there, we haven't sighted any reception staff.

Some highs and lows. AC unit leaked all over the spare bed but worked just fine. It was hot in town, so it was nice to have. The room was good, lots of towels. Smell of cigarette smoke in the hallway was really strong despite the rooms being “smoke free”. Great location, 10/10, very walkable. Host was responsive and offered many suggestions.

We recently had a wonderful stay at Palazzo Bicocca Rooms in Catania, Italy. The location is absolutely central—perfect for exploring the city on foot, with plenty of restaurants and eateries just steps away. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by our friendly host, who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. Check-in was smooth and hassle-free, and we really appreciated the personal touches and attention to detail. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Catania—great hospitality, unbeatable location, and a truly pleasant experience.

My stay here was beyond delightful. Staff was sooo helpful, from helping me book an airport transfer to helping me find stores and restaurants nearby. The response time was 24/7 and so fast. I can’t recommend it enough. The palazzo is BEAUTIFUL and so so so nice to just walk around and admire. Only thing is there are lots of stairs so be prepared. It wasn’t a problem for us at all though. It’s quick and easy to access the property. They also have complimentary espresso! Which is lovely for the morning before heading out to the town.
View when you enter the palazzo.
