Plussat: Fantastic location. A really beautiful hotel. Great staff and the roof top restaurant was exceptional.

Plussat: The hotel was perfectly located in the center of Catania on the main shopping street. However, having now traveled to Catania, I wouldn’t recommend staying in this city for more than 1 night.

Plussat: It is one of the most beautiful Hotels my husband and I have ever been to.

Plussat: Stayed here overnight between flights from Rome to Catania. Arrived late and left early to no opinion on the area.

Miinukset: Uncomfortable bed

Plussat: Good breakfast, eapecially for 3 EUR Friendly staff Great value for money

Miinukset: Elevator was super slow and old Air conditioning in the room was not so powerful

Plussat: Nice room, great breakfast and helpful staff

Miinukset: Definitely noise, I was on an inner courtyard so no street noise but you could hear everything in the next room then the bathroom Awful

Plussat: The breakfast was amazing and the best part of the stay

Miinukset: All was good!

Plussat: Friendly staff, hotel on a walking distance from monumental and shopping areas. Lots of fun places to have dinner and a drink nearby. Very clean and in well condition. For a fee, you can get your car in a private parking. Good breakfast selection.

Plussat: The room was spacious and the bed comfortable. A tiny bit of street noise outside that seemed to fade at a reasonable time. The check in and staff were friendly and helped set up a taxi at fixed rate for our airport trip the next morning. He was also keen to inform me about Best Western discounts and points in future. For a small hotel and breakfast room the breakfast was really great with the added bonus of Sicily's classic fresh granita with brioche. I would have lingered longer in there if we had the time. The price was excellent value, perfect for one night stay or more, depending on your needs.

Miinukset: It was great to have coffe/tea making in the room with kettle, however there appeared not to be any milk packets amongst others such as sugar and honey. The other thung that appears common in Sicily is the excessive use of plastic. The cups offered for the hot drinks were styrofoam which is unpleasant to drink from and wasteful. The plastic spoon offered had begun to melt in my tea as I stirred in the sugar. Please offer real cups for coffee/tea and metal spoons and help to not make more waste in your island and country. For some reason we had trouble with the safe in the room. Staff came to help and then it worked. Of course when they left and we tried again, it didn't work. Who knows why. Unlucky. There was no iron in the room but I'm guessing they would find one if needed.

Plussat: A nice little hotel in a quiet location. The most extraordinary feature of this hotel is an excellent breakfast for a mere 3 euro!! Clean and quite spacious room with a big balcony. Comfortable bed. Very helpful and smiling staff. Highly recommended.

Miinukset: that I had to leave so soon ;)

Plussat: Hotel is quite great, location is good. Easy to reach "must see" places. Breakfast is good and staff - willing to help

Miinukset: We had lots of troubles with wifi quality, so hotel is not so suitable for business travelers, who don't have their own internet. Also it is not so convenient, if you want reach beach by foot

Plussat: The property is well located close to the city centre with a secure parking garage - therefore it is great for those travelling with a rental car. The rooms, although a little dated were clean and comfortable with the balcony providing a nice touch in the evenings before heading out for dinner. The reception staff were very helpful!

Miinukset: The breakfast waiting staff looked thoroughly unenthused and were not very forthcoming... it took several attempts to wrestle an espresso out of them! The rooms are basic and felt a little old however all things considered this was a good hotel for the price!

Plussat: Breakfast was great as well as the location.

Miinukset: Change the old carpets.

Plussat: Very good staff. Friendly people

Plussat: Great old building , nice room.

Miinukset: Breakfast

Plussat: Location was very central. The double rooms (which I requested even though only a single person) were huge and bathrooms good.

Miinukset: Rooms overlooking the main street of Catania are noisy. The first room I stayed in had very little hot water in the evenings. The breakfast was ok but I did not enjoy it that much. We ordered a taxi for the airport when departing and it was provided by the hotel, meaning we were driven to the airport by someone from the hotel. I believe he overcharged us considerably for that journey.

Miinukset: The queen beds are single beds pushed together... it is not a queen and they tend to separate in the middle of the night. The breakfast is very very basic.

Plussat: Lovely staff, excellent location. Such good value as well.

Plussat: The location is central to many spots in Catania and the rooms are adequate for the price. Internet was free but, not unlimited as a key had to be obtained every other day.

Miinukset: Staff does not speak English and did not go out of their way to make any accommodations, communication overall was poor and there were last minute shuffling of rooms which, was annoying. Staff seems to be unclear on some basic pricing policies set out in rules set by their 3rd party booking agencies.

Plussat: Nice staff and helpful . comfortable bed.clean everywhere.very central

Miinukset: Bathroom didn't have shelves to put personal things

Plussat: Cleanliness. Location. Building lovely

Miinukset: Breakfast very basic. Shower: hot water sporadic.

Plussat: I liked this hotel a lot, the room was great.

Plussat: Great location, smiling staff, spacious rooms, very interesting building.

Miinukset: Very poor breakfast; a lot of dust in the bathroom, especially on some hard to reach places; the staff do not know English.

Plussat: Excellent location, walking distance to the main square, markets, restaurants, 1 minute walk from the Airport bus. Breakfast included was delicious. The room had a balcony with views. The room was very spacious and comfortable. Will go again and highly recommend.

Plussat: Good breakfast excellent location

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Great location, very nice staff

Miinukset: slightly small bathroom

Plussat: The hotel is very beautiful and the rooms are clean and spacious. We enjoyed the friendly staff, the tasty breakfast and the good location in the old city center. We fully recommend this hotel and we will definitely stay here again when we come back to Catania.

Plussat: A central location and a nice building

Miinukset: The staff... Not everyone at the front desk speak English which created problems for us. For example, we called down to get our car and they ordered us a private transport.... When we came down form the room and realized this there was not really a que at the reception ( on guest who took her time - which is no problem for me) but the other girl working there didn't even want to come up and ask if she could help since she clearly did not understand English well enough. When the woman was done the man behind the desk instantly wanted to help an older woman who just came down to reception rather than me; could it be that she had a designer bag and fancy clothes rather than me in my trainers and shorts? (it felt like a "Pretty woman"-moment..!). It was now almost 40 minutes since we should have been on our was out of Catania for an excursion but since we didn't have our car and they keep the keys - we had to wait. When we finally got to talk to someone I weren’t given my key even if I said that I could get the car myself (they just park them further down the street on the side - not so safe considering the small narrow roads..!), but I was not given the key. They insisted to get it. Frustrated and late i followed the guy and when he had unlocked the car I took over and drove off from there. That’s just one of many issues. Your breakfast was another HUGE disappointment! There was nothing. No fresh vegetables at all, some dry bread, yoghurt in packages and coffee from a machine (not a good one either..!). The staff for breakfast seemed to hate people - no smile, no good morning, nothing - unless you were Italian of course..! Then she changed were somewhat polite. The last days we decided to eat breakfast out (even though we had paid for breakfast). I bet for the money you pay here - you can find something much better else were! Then there is one more thing that just seemed mad. They have an amazing roof top terrace - that they don't use!?

Plussat: Rauhallinen vaikka keskellä kaikkea. Ystävällinen palvelu. Hyvä aamupala.

Miinukset: Huone kaipaisi päivitystä. Kylpyhuoneessa hometta.

Plussat: Big hotel near the city center of Catania. Our welcoming was fine, the room was also fine. It's a short walk into the city center and Catania is a lovely city to explore! The reception helped us with choosing our transport back to the airport.

Miinukset: Before we arrived, we received an e-mail about reviews. I understand the meaning of this e-mail, but to receive it before you even arrive at a hotel, feels a bit strange. It had me doubting whether I should even write a review, but I still did. I think it would be better if the meaning of the e-mail was explained in person, at the reception for example in stead of by e-mail.

Plussat: Perfect location, nice staff

Plussat: The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. They organised a taxi for us and we could go to the airport with no worries.

Miinukset: The breakfast was decent.

Plussat: It was close shops. Staff were very helpful.

Miinukset: Booked this for my parents who are elderly and the step in shower was just a bit difficult for them minor issue. All was good.

Plussat: Staff very helpful Attractive ambience

Miinukset: Breakfast options bad. No good fresh fruit when surrounded by it in the streets outside. Coffee from machine horrible. Scrambled egg and Bacon, mushrooms and tomatoes greasy and tasteless. Did not fix malfumctioning television and blown light bulbs when requested

Plussat: Close proximity to the centre

Miinukset: The organised car to pick me up at the airport did not arrive so I caught a taxi and got ripped off. The hotel apologised but it put a damper on my stay.

Plussat: Location is perfect. Staff very friendly & room was well appointed and clean. Great value.

Plussat: Male front staff service was welcoming and more...

Plussat: Professional, discreet and what any experienced traveller requires, Bravo!

Miinukset: Personal, hotel tour guide, facilitator for ones movements around Catania: local consultant...social, cultural and business.

Plussat: The staff was very skilled and able to improvise regarding parking and more. breakfirst fine too.

Plussat: Beautifully situated in the centre of Cantania with very high standard of rooms

Plussat: Charmingly decorated, room spacious, staff friendly and helpful, location excellent.

Plussat: Ystävällisestä henkilökunnasta. Turvallisuuteen oli kiinnitetty erityistä huomiota.

Miinukset: Ei

Plussat: Very friendly staff, helpful and competent. Breakfast rich and good. Position of hotel is good and room was quiet. I am looking forward to spend my time once more in this hotel.

Plussat: Excellent location, Luigi on the reception desk was exceptionally helpful and even arranged to send on the clothes I'd left to our next hotel in Taormina! We were offered a choice of room and selected a small but well equipped and comfortable room with delightful french windows and balcony. We were on the side of the hotel and this turned out to be quiet. I'd advise you to avoid the front of the hotel at the weekend unless you are going to be out yourself partying late (it's a bit of a gathering place late on in the evening).

Miinukset: The breakfast service was not replenished - we went there half an hour before it closed and it was pretty sparse to say the least, but the coffee and croissants were excellent. It's probably best to get their early. Our bathroom was a little on the snug side which may be a problem for some, but then we did have a choice of larger rooms had we wanted them.

Plussat: Central location, friendly staff, great room.

Plussat: Very friendly staff. Room excellent. Breakfast not too impressive - but italians don't do breakfast like brits.. Location fine for catania sightseeing etc.

Miinukset: No. It was good and we would stay again. Really liked the place.

Plussat: Good central location with highly efficient and professional staff.

Miinukset: A few problems re noise from nearby bars on the Saturday night!

Plussat: Great location; friendly staff; clean facilities.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Very nice and helpful staff! I need theirs advice and they have the patience and professionalism to give us. Understanding for a late check out, maps and information offering, flight tickets listing. I remembered only a name of receptionist, Mrs Annarita, but the same her colleagues are very processional. Congratulate for management! The breakfast good, with a large kind of products. The rooms clean, good conditions for long time staying. Parking in front of hotel!

Miinukset: Everything was perfect!

Miinukset: The receptionist somehow could not write the company information correctly on the bill and She also said that she can't make changes to the system afterwards

Miinukset: The front desk staff, both night and day, are unfriendly and like to comment on you a lot and also to laugh lightly at you after you leave. I can say that with certainty because I understand Italian and also French. However, they have believed that I only spoke English. I would not return even it was for free.

Plussat: Staff very helpful and polite room was spotless beds great.

Miinukset: Not having longer there as it was quick visit.

Plussat: location

Miinukset: stayed in a standard weared out room at the 2nd floor. Staff looked tired and was not really welconing.

Plussat: Staff were very helpful and friendly-

Plussat: Staff were very nice

Miinukset: Building was tired, rooms were remarkably small

Plussat: This is a business style hotel in a very convenient location (airport bus in front of the door) and close to the city centre. Good facilities as expected from a 4 star chain hotel. Good stay. 24 hour reception for early departure/late arrival!

Miinukset: All good
