    Unfortunately our room was above a bar in a laneway that played loud music on a Thursday night until midnight. The shower didn’t have a screen at front so water spilled over the floor.

    All of the staff were so welcoming and helpful. Communication was superb from well before we arrived. We were able to store two suitcases for 5 days while we toured Sicily which made our medium sized hire car more manageable for 4 people. Thank you Antoine who assisted so kindly. The charming gentleman on reception in the evening gave us a great suggestion for a nearby family run seafood restaurant and he was nice to talk to (English) when we took the E25 shuttle to the airport. The breakfast was amazing with eggs, toast, ham, cheese, cereals, cappuccino or latte. Many thanks especially to the lovely girl in the breakfast room -so kind and welcoming. The room was absolutely beautiful in traditional style, high ceilings and gorgeous patterned tile floor.

    A good place to stay if you want to be close to the main tourist attractions.

    It was not obvious to find the private parking on arrival and a bit stressful, as there is no way to park even just for a minute in case you get lost. The parking is located in a narrow one way street with regular traffic and requires someone from the hotel to open the gate. We got a room just next to the reception, so it was a bit noisy at times. A rather small shower and breakfast room, but perfectly fine.

    Very friendly and welcoming staff, all without exception. Excellent location, easy to reach all the main Catania attractions on foot. All you need was available, including a private parking, which however is not strictly necessary as it should be possible to find a parking in the nearby streets. Via Santa Filomena just a couple of blocks away with many restaurants. A special thanks to Marcello for helping us out with the parking entry/exit!

    The floor has no carpets, so it's cold to walk on without slippers. Spring mattresses could be more comfy but are good enough. I couldn't get hot water in the shower at around midnight, which would have been very appreciated, since this is when I was able to arrive. With the room being big enough, same cannot be said about the wardrobes. It would be hard for more than 2 people to put their stuff away. I booked 2 rooms, the other one was a single room, around 4e cheaper, but was way smaller and contained a double bed, so even for a single person it covered a lot of space and my friend couldn't comfortably put away stuff and move around the room at the same time.

    Breakfast was good. I wanted eggs and meat, which is probably not common in Italy, but this hotel got enough choices. Also the caciocavallo cheese was a nice addition. My room was spacious, the corridors have nice paintings to look at. Staff is very friendly, I could get as much espressos for and after breakfast as I wanted. All in all it was comfortable enough, and very clean.
