Came from Taormina to stay a night before our flight back the next day. And honestly we’ve made a right choice. We’ve got to experience Catania for a night and it was amazing. Location is a at heart of downtown, with all the beautiful buildings you want to see just a couple minutes away. The view from our balcony was incredible. Highly recommended for a night or two stay.

I would highly recommend this place. It is near the heart of activity in the historic area. This gives you easy access to not only the Cathedral of Saint Agatha and other nearby landmarks, but also great restaurants and bistros. The streets are a little rough but I always felt safe. The elevator became a little comical with guests forgetting to shut both sets of doors upon exiting. We heard people on floor 2 discussing whether to intentionally leave the doors open. Thankfully they did not. The room was beautifully decorated. The bed and linens were very comfortable and luxurious. The staff was extremely helpful and gracious. They really made us feel cared for and helped us figure out an alternative travel plan when our flight out of Catania has been canceled due to airport closure. We will always remember the kindness of the staff and their driver. I would highly recommend this B&B as a great place to rest, relax and restore after a busy day out in Catania.

The property was spacious with a lot of character as expected being a 200 hundred year old palace. The staff was truly great and helpful. Ms. Oriana and Mr. Massimo (the owner) went beyond the limits to make our stay comfortable. The only draw back was that we felt security around the property could be improved. That being said as long as you are vigilant and carry all necessary documents and house keys with you, your stay should be very enjoyable.

The location was very central to the main areas of Catania. Access to the accommodation was via an old lift or four flights of stairs. The size of the room was huge, as was the spa bath, which was also very relaxing. The staff were very helpful and responsive. An air conditioning issue we encountered on a Sunday was fixed immediately. I would recommend this accommodation.
