    We received a warm welcome, checked-in early, and had a lovely host. The building and rooms were charming and perfect for a romantic stay. The staff was attentive and the breakfast service was nice. Easy access to transportation options.

    Nothing to complain about at all.

    This Hotel was a short stay for us after a late arrival from Malta. We arrived late and left early - it was very convenient to walk to Hertz car rental from here. I loved the high ceilings in the room. Felt like a palace.

    The breakfast was mediocre.

    Receptionist on arrival was very helpful and informative. On second day when we had a prearranged pick up and transfer to Milazzo that didn't show we had the help of the receptionist to organize another car. The decor of the hotel was old but charming. The location was next door to train line for Mt Etna.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at a charming hotel in Sicily. From the moment I checked in, the staff made me feel like a part of their family. They went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. One particular receptionist even helped me with car hire issues, showing a level of service that was truly exceptional. The hotel's attention to detail really impressed me, with beautiful frescoed ceilings in the rooms and a cozy, historic atmosphere throughout. Additionally, the location was perfect - situated near the city center, I was able to easily explore all the main sights. And let's not forget the delicious breakfast that was served every morning, a great way to start the day.

    No improvements needed, everything was perfect!

    Very cozy and charming little hotel that offers a great atmosphere and comfortable rooms. Conveniently located close to public transportation and just a short walk away from the city center. the staff is extremely friendly and helpful, providing a great service that truly makes you feel at home. On top of that, the breakfast is delicious and the coffee is excellent.

    The bathroom is quite small and could use some updating, but it still serves its purpose. the Wi-Fi signal in the room could be stronger, as it was a bit spotty at times.

    Great hotel! Just a few meters from bus and Metro station. Located on one of the main streets of Catania. Easy access to city center (15 min walk or 5 min by bus). The room was not very bug, but it had a really high ceiling which gave a nice spacious feel. Staff was very friendly and helped with all our requests. The breakfast was good.

    Shower cabin was small and a bit dirty. The bathroom could use some improvements as the walls are quite old.

    The hotel was full of character, with beautiful antiques and lovely paintings on the ceiling. The staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The location was great, with easy access to public transportation and lots of buses running up and down the street. We also loved the breakfast, which was basic but lovely with great coffee and a good variety of food.

    The only thing we disliked was the parking situation, as it was tricky to find parking in the city. However, this was not the fault of the hotel and we managed to find a spot eventually.

    The hotel's location near the main city sights was a real advantage, making it easy for us to explore and experience the heart of the city. The staff were incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home, going above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in the rooms was noticeable, with modern amenities and a quirky decor that added character to the space. The breakfast selection was basic but satisfying, and the freshly made coffee was a delightful start to our day.

    No major issues.
