Perfect stay

The stay at Dome was the best of our trip, and overall the best in a while. Nicola is truly the perfect host - everything went super smoothly from booking to check-in and service during the stay. He is so helpful with everything one might need. The room was new, clean and stylish. The AC worked wonderfully and the location was perfect for exploring (and a good night’s sleep). Truly a perfect stay!

Beautiful rooms in a great location!

The rooms were very clean and modern. Big shower, good bed and a good mini bar selection. The location is fantastic. Near the cathedral (I could see it from my balcony) and Via Etnea. Hosts are very friendly and helpful and it's easy to get in touch with them using WhatsApp. I will definitely return!

Breakfast-to-order was delicious. The room was beautifully designed and appointed. What was most superlative, however, was Nicola's kind and helpful attention, and coordination of transportation, to get me across island to Palermo airport to reclaim my lost luggage. He saved our vacation!

This is not a typical hotel. We were met at the front of the building by front desk person and escorted to the second floor where their hotel floor is at. The staff member was very friendly and helpful. He actually saw my friends, leaving to the cathedral and walked with them and told them where to go, which was very nice. The location is fantastic. There is a bar /cafe on the first floor and they were very nice. Lastly, the hotel arranged for a transportation to the airport and it went off perfectly. I really enjoyed Catania and when I go back I will stay here again.

We had an excellent stay at the Dome in Catania. We were warmly greeted by our host, Nicola who gave us tips and suggestions. Our room was wonderful. The bed was cozy, the water pressure perfect and our AC felt so nice after a day out. This definitely has been one of the best stays we have experienced. We highly recommend a visit to the Dome when in Catania. Thank you so much Nicola!!!
