Great location, love the quirky style of the hotel, great shower and really great staff. Hats off to antonella and katie, and the lovely lady at breakfast.
My one negative was that there was no variation at breakfast and after 4 nights it was a bit boring. But this did not distract from our stay.
A small reasonably priced hotel in a quiet neighborhood, just a short walk from the train station. Lovely decor and very attentive staff.
Hotel très confortable, décoration recherchée ; personnel empathique, Petit déjeuner copieux dans un cadre moderne . La situation géographique à 600 m du metro ( une station du centre historique), des gares routiere et ferroviere facilite les déplacements.
The quirky decor and size of our room. The staff were very friendly and breakfast was good and the hotel was convenient for the station.
It was further from the centre of town than we'd realised and the locality is a bit run down. We were advised to take a bus to the airport which was ridiculously slow compared to a one-stop train journey.
Toll gestaltete Zimmer mit Kunst- und Filmmotiven, sehr nette und zuvorkommende Mitarbeiter: innen
Leider schwierig einen Parkplatz zu finden
L accueil avec 2 personnes formidables, souriantes et serviables…bravo mesdames
Les oreillers trop durs
The rooms were comfortable and clean. Breakfast was great.
The area seemed a bit run down
Camera, posizione
Che non c'è parcheggio privato
The staff here are wonderful, we received a very warm welcome after a long travel day. Our room was spacious and secure with a great renovated ensuite. Close to the station and an easy walk to the Duomo and surrounds. Good restaurants near by. The breakfast is excellent. The artwork is interesting! Don’t let the surrounding streets put you off, this is a gem once inside.
Direi tutto
Gutes Frühstück mit für italienische Verhältnisse mit grossem Angebot.
Nichts
Hotel muy moderno y bonito. El personal muy atento. Está a 5 minutos de las estaciones de autobús y tren.
El ambiente del barrio. El hotel está a unos 20 minutos del centro y hay mucha suciedad en las calles y el ambiente da sensación de barrio deprimido, aunque sin ningún problema. Hay que tenerlo en cuenta.
Everything
Very different. Rooms were multilevel but very comfortable. Katty at the front desk was excellent and very attentive. We were 5 mature couples traveling together and there were gazebos with the outdoor furniture outside to hang out in
It wasn’t really in the thick of the central area
The room was clean and nice, the bed was very comfy. The staff was very welcoming - let us leave the bags after checkout until we had to go to the airport, as well helped with all the questions we had. The breakfast was good but nothing special. Location of the hotel close to bus and train station.
Tout : bon accueil et hôtel confortable. Personnel très avenant. Excellent petit-déjeuner.
Rien.
Personnel accueillant et sympathique. Hotel propre , bien placé. Petit déjeuner copieux.
Difficulté pour garer sa voiture, presque une obligation de payer un parking (15 euros _jour).
Très bel endroit pour notre première des 16 nuits en Sicile. La pièce où est servi le petit-déjeuner est d un très bon goût.
Very clean and cool and breakfast was great
Little side street a bit dark at night
Közel a pályaudvar. Tisztaság.
The accommodation was so helpful and communicative, especially as our flight was delayed 24 hours due to the volcano. Bed was very comfortable and the room was spacious. Breakfast was really good. The location is about a 10 min taxi ride and cost about 15 euro.
Nothing to dislike
Gli spazi dell'hotel in generale sono molto ampi. La camera era molto ampia, con soppalco. Il letto e i cuscini comodissimo. Il personale gentilissimo ci ha fornito molte informazioni. La zona è comoda per i mezzi e alcuni edifici dell'università ma non è centrale.
In estate la camera con soppalco può essere molto calda, anche se si utilizza il condizionatore. La colazione sotto le mie aspettative.
B’fast was fantastic and the hotel has a quirky vibe. staff were very friendly and knowledgeable
We had a very enjoyable stay. The staff were exceptional and genuinely couldn’t do enough for us, we really appreciated how friendly, welcoming and helpful they were throughout our stay. Our room was spotless, spacious and very comfortable. The location was central and convenient for getting around. Breakfast was fairly basic, but perfectly sufficient and had everything we needed to start the day. Overall, a lovely stay, made especially memorable by the wonderful staff.

L'accoglienza e disponibilità alla reception, la signora è vernete moto gentile
La colazione potrebbe essere un po' più curata, meno industriale e con qualcosa di preparato sul momento
Dipendenti molto gentili e professionali
Da migliorare la colazione. Un po' povera
Le calme, la proximité de la gare et surtout la gentillesse du personnel qui nous a donné plein de bons plans pour manger.

Ļoti elegants dizains, numurs divos stāvos, gaismu ieslēgšanai un izslēgšanai četri slēdži visā numura apdzīvotās telpas teritorijā (var ieslēgt/izslēgt no jebkuras vietas.

Nice breakfast
Many steps including in room. Door not open and have to wait for staff to open which can take time
Lo moderno y limpio
Un poquitito lejos del centro
A képek a falon
Nem volt a reggelkk között granita
La struttura è carina e in una posizione comoda al centro storico
Purtroppo si sprofondava nei letti a causa dei materassi troppo molli.
员工和酒店都非常棒!工作人员非常热情友善,也尽力满足我们的各种需求。因为中途需要去锡拉库萨,我们提前将行李免费寄存在酒店,给我们的行程带来了很大的方便。早餐很棒,房间宽敞舒适,地理位置也很好,距离火车站很近,步行大约10分钟即可到达。整个入住体验都非常愉快,非常感谢工作人员的热情招待!🙏
目前没有,感觉一切都很好。
Liked · An oasis ìn a simple, quite backstreet of Catania, away from the bustle but within easy walking distance of the historic centre (15 minutes or so). Also, local neighbourhood full of character, and slowly being redeveloped - feels completely safe at night, good lighting. Wonderful local family restaurant just around the corner - Osteria dal Panda - mainly locals, good food especially seafood, and prices, and excellent service. Hotel rooms are creatively designed, split level, comfortable, and restaurant is a spacious, airy restored interior of the historic site, opening out onto a sunny private courtyard. Breakfast offers full choices. Room includes a kettle, fridge as well as effective air.con. The charming host has created an artistic environment, and is an engaging advocate for the cultural life of Catania, in which she has played an active role as a jazz singer. Hotel is just five minutes from waterside regeneration cultural complex in repurposed sulphur factory : an arts venue, with performances, cinema museum, and museum of the WW2 allied liberation landings. Airport shuttle bus stop just three minutes away (it does a loop around the town centre, and tickets good for 90 minutes), and rail, bus (- long and short distance) and subway stations under ten minutes away. Who needs a car in Catania!
Car parking might be a problem - street parking possible - but for me arriving by train and leaving by airport shuttle not an issue
L'accueil est parfait. Le petit déjeuner était très bien. La chambre spacieuse et confortable.
La amabilidad del personal tanto de la recepción que del comedor .cerca de la estación de autobuses y trenes.con el metro una parada y estás en el centro .limpio sea áreas públicas que las habitaciones.
La calle donde se encuentra pero eso no significa que no sea segura solo que uno no se lo espera.
emplacement adapté non loin du centre-ville
La proximité de la gare routière , belle chambre grande et confortable, propreté, bon petit déjeuner , personnel agréable et disponible

Zentral gelegen.

Polecam Hotel 😊 spędziłam tam 3 noce i byl to bardzo przyjemny pobyt. Uroczy, pomocny personel, śniadanka dobre. Dobra lokalizacja. Chętnie wrócę
Nie ma takich rzeczy
Uno de los mejores desayuno que hemos comido
The inner part of the hotel is big, charming
The location. It is 15 mins walk from centre but in a rather ruined area
Clean facilities,friendly staff very helpful
It is a 15 minute walk to the main square and it felt unsafe at night. We opted to use the taxis to get around.
Alles hat mir gut gefallen! Das Personal war sehr nett und ließ uns gratis einen early Check-in machen. Die Zimmer sind sehr gemütlich, alle Annehmlichkeiten funktionieren gut (Fernseher, Kühlschrank, Wasserkocher, Klimaanlage). Das Badezimmer war groß, schön und sauber. Das Bett war sehr kuschelig besonders die Bettdecke und alles hat frisch gewaschen gerochen. Kunstliebhaber kommen auch voll auf ihre Kosten. Über jedem Bett ist die Tapete ein anderes Meisterwerk, welches auch auf einer kleinen Broschüre beschrieben wird. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig und hat keinen Wunsch offen gelassen, außer vielleicht eine Eierspeis. Getränke aus der Minibar waren auch nicht teuer. Alles war wirklich wunderbar und wir waren sehr zufrieden.
Nichts. :)
Außergewöhnlich tolles Hotel! Sieht von der Straße nicht so aus, aber überrascht aufs Positivste im Inneren. Personal sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Frühstück tolles Angebot. Zimmer sehr großzügig, sauber und dem Namen des Hotels entsprechen gestaltet.
Beautiful room, spacious and comfy. Super clean.
Great hotel located very close to the central station, making it perfect for a 1-night stay before traveling further. The room was surprisingly large and comfortable. The breakfast is simple, but features really good coffee and delicious croissants.
The neighborhood isn't the nicest, but it's completely fine for a short transit stop
Oda dubleksti, gayet rahat ve temiz bir odaydı gönül rahatlıkla kalınır.

La stanza era perfetta, impeccabile e super pulita. Tutto curato nei minimi dettagli e lo staff è stato davvero gentile e disponibile. Ci siamo trovati benissimo! Consigliatissimo!
Location ottima vicini a stazione di treni e autobus, personale gentili, colazione ok.
Gentilezza e kit di benvenuto
Siamo stati una notte.ho prenotato 3 camere e pur troppo solo una era poco meglio. Di cui una era pessima.con letto sopra e sotto e sopra nn si respirava dal caldo che faceva. L'aria sopra nn arrivava per niente. E poi era piena di formiche.la signora ci ha dato un spray ma io nn devo occuparmi io.e poi piena di capelli per terra. Mi dispiace ma nn tornerei. Un po di pulizie meglio potrebbe fare. Colazione basico.....

Mycket trevligt rum. Trevlig och omtänksam personal.
Mycket enkel frukost utan något varmt alternativ. Saknade bättre utbud av bröd.
A lovely spacious clean hotel, with a great outside space for relaxing. The staff were friendly and helpful. Good breakfast selection. Very close to the train and bus station. 15-20 minutes walk to the centre.
The location is quite run down with lots of rubbish and dog poo every where.
Sembra di essere a casa. Staff disponibile e gentilissimo, camere pulite, buona posizione e colazione ottima e super abbondante
Lokalizacja
Ograniczone śniadanie. Trochę słabo jeśli we Włoszech zabrakło pomidorów na śniadanie i owoce są podawane na drugi dzień te same
Not much but half hour late checkout was appreciated.
1) We arrived very late and were given a room with two major problems: First, our original booking of a standard double room was cancelled three days before due to a 'plumbing problem' and replaced by this split level room which, inconveniently, had the bathroom on the lower level. Second, and even worse, the air conditioning was completely inadequate for the room which made sleep virtually impossible due to the heat. 2) The night receptionist insisted on us paying but we had already paid through Booking.com. This was unnecessary hassle considering we had arrived at midnight. 3) Breakfast was of low quality and lacked choice.
Half hour late checkout appreciated.
1) Room not very attractive with an awkward arch in the middle. One end of each of the curtains had come loose from the curtain rail. This let in light in the early morning but, worse, it shows poor attention to detail by the management. The toilet seat was also damaged. 2) Breakfast was poor. The quality was not good and the choices were very limited and mostly unhealthy.
Very near the railway station and several museums. Great decor and friendly staff. Breakfast was plentiful and the breakfast area was clean. Room was clean with a powerful shower.
The smoke alarms flashed continually, not a problem in the day but at night it lit up the room like strobe lighting!!!
L’emplacement. Gare centrale juste à côté.
Personale presente alla reception h24
Le stanze mansardate al 2° piano nonostante il condizionatore sono troppo calde.
Hotelul e la 5 minute de gara si de autogara. Accesul la autobuze e foarte facil. Camera a fost curata si dotata cu tot ce era nevoie. Micul dejun a fost in stil italian, dar suficient. Doamnele de la receptie au fost extrem de amabile si ne-au ajutat cu sfaturi sau recomandari de excursii. Per total am avut 4 zile minunate.
Nu exista nimic negativ.
Spacious room like a bungalow in the middle of the city
More plug sockets would be perfect
Sehr hübsches Hotel ca. 15 Minuten fußläufig zur Altstadt. Saubere Zimmer, bequemes Bett, klasse Dusche, täglich frische Handtücher. Gratis Wasser zur Ankunft. Sehr hilfsbereites Personal an der Rezeption und beim Frühstück. Toller Cappuccino. Arrangement (20 €) mit einem Lido am Strand mit Transfer, was wir gern bei der Hitze in Anspruch genommen haben. Konversation in Englisch war prima.
Es fehlte etwas Herzhaftes zum Frühstück. Der Schrank in unserem Zimmer war kaputt und ließ sich kaum öffnen. Aber wir sind klar gekommen.
La ubicación cerca de la Estacion de tren y bus ideal si te mueves en transporte público. Cómodísimo para ir al aeropuerto. Del centro un poco más alejado aunque nosotros íbamos caminando. La amabilidad del personal es exquisita, especialmente la persona que atiende el desayuno y las de recepción. La limpieza muy buena. La habitación silenciosa ideal para el descanso.
No puedo decir que haya algo que no me gustó. Sí puedo sugerir que estaría bien un mini bar en la recepción que está abierta 24/7, ya que en los alrededores no hay muchas opciones para hacer un café o refresco.
Hübsch und geschmackvoll eingerichtet.
Das Zimmer besteht aus zwei Ebenen, wobei das Bett und Badezimmer nur über eine steile Treppe zugänglich ist. Die Zugangsstraße ist sehr schlecht und in einem tragischen Zustand.
The room, and the hotel itself are beautiful. The room was also very quiet. The staff was very accommodating-they opened breakfast 15 minutes early so we could eat before our tour.
The area around the hotel is rough. Don't be put off by it - the hotel is great.

Le quartier
Tutto bene comoda anche la struttura convenzionata per parcheggiare autovettura
Trevlig och omtänksam personal. Fint rum, häftigt med etage. Enkel men lagom frukostbuffe.
Le personnel très accueillant, la chambre confortable et bien équipée et les espaces communs agréables
Tout était parfait ! Rapport qualité prix excellent ! Personnel à l’écoute ! Petit déjeuner à partir de 7h ! Quand on a un avion à prendre c’est appréciable alors que la plupart des hôtels le propose qu’à partir de 8h !
Très bel hôtel, beaucoup de charme.
It was quiet, clean & had some of the best quality linen I’ve come across on the beds. We loved the mezzanine level bedroom & the wall art. The breakfast was amazing, as were the staff. They were so approachable & helpful. The lift was an unexpected plus too! It is close to the bus & train station, which was great when traveling by public transport.
The surrounding neighbourhood was a bit tired & unkempt, but easy enough to navigate through.
Rescato el personal excelente, su buena ubicación, aire acondicionado bien y desayuno correcto.

Near central station. we were in for just one day
Kleines Hotel in unscheinbarer Lage. Das äußere täuscht erst einmal. Alles gut zu Fuß zu erreichen. Nettes freundliches Personal. Für einen Kurzaufenthalt zu empfehlen. Parkmöglichkeit in der Nähe vorhanden.
I really enjoyed my stay. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, I needed to do some work while there and there was a desk and chair separate from the sleeping area that was perfect. The vibe was super charming, I loved the posters and photos and all the nods to my favorite movies and shows.
La struttura era pulita e accogliente! Lo staff molto gentile e professionale.
L'hôtel est très bien situé proche de la gare et des bus, il est tres agréable et le personnel est aimable et tres serviable. Le petit déjeuner est varié et excellent les confitures locales sont extraordinaires le capuccino également.
Il manquait une ampoule dans la salle de bain qui de fait était un peu sombre.
Voor ons was de locatie belangrijk omdat we het hotel boekten om de dag erna met het openbaar vervoer naar de luchthaven te gaan. Hiervoor is de ligging echt perfect. Dichtbij en toch weg uit de drukte. Nette, geen te grote kamer maar je hebt er alles wat je nodig hebt. Vriendelijke ontvangst en receptie die 24u / 24 geopend is. Verrassende binnenruimte met ruime ontbijtzaal. Ontbijtbuffet.
Személyzet udvarias segítőkész, tisztaság rendben volt naponta takarítottak. Reggeli szokásos,de finom.
Túl távol volt a strand, ahová busszal mentünk, viszont haza sajnos nem sűrűn járt a busz és túl zsúfolt volt.
Close to the railway station
2nd bedroom upstairs very hot and stuffy.
Great place to stay and close to train station and the city centre. Staff are amazing, very friendly and professional in the same time. Our every question was answered. Big rooms abd nice restaurant for breakfast. Very artistic and special place.

The staff was exemplary! Helpful, knowledgeable and friendly. The breakfast was generous with fresh fruit, cereal, pastries, cold meat and cheese and made to order cappuccino.
It was a on a small side street that was not well known. But it was definitely lovely. There are stairs in some of the bedrooms
L hôtel se trouve à proximité de la gare, quartier populaire, pas de grande activité le soir se trouve à 20 minutes à pied du centre touristique de Catane. Personnel très sympathique. Petit déjeuner simple
Améliorer le petit déjeuner et que la Clim soit moins bruyante
Great location and decoration. Breakfast buffet was excellent.
Hotelli oli ihan siisti sisältä ja luotettavan vaikutelman saimme. Aamupala oli ihan ok. Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä.
Ympäristö, jossa hotelli sijaitsi oli jotenkin kovin ränsistynyt ja epäsiisti. Matka keskusta-aukiolle oli melko pitkä.
Posizione vicina punti strategici della città. Camera spaziosa e pulita. Staff disponibile e molto cordiale
Hôtel calme et confortable avec de grandes chambres . Idéalement placé près de la station des bus
lit confortable,grande chambre,salle de bain grandeur confortable(moyenne)salle du petit dejeuner vaste,Pres de la gare et gare routiere 8 minutes
semble plutot motel qu hotel,
Geräumiges, schönes und sauberes Zimmer, große, gemütliche Gemeinschafterrasse, sehr nettes Personal, gutes Frühstück (nicht nur, wie in Italien üblich, süßes Gebäck, sondern auch Brötchen, Eier, Wurst und Käse), super Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis!
Molto curato nei particolari
Per la colazione ci aspettavamo qualche prodotto tipico
