Aci Castello hoteles

Ventajas: It was a beautiful facility with warm and welcoming staff. Breakfast was included, with a beautiful breakfast room, but we unfortunately had early tours to leave for each day, so never ate in there. But the staff, delivered us a very early breakfast each of the two days we were there, putting a very personal touch on our stay. Also, we were set to go on an Etna tour early one AM, had our breakfast delivered and were dressed for it and then the tour was cancelled and rescheduled for the next day due to weather., and the staff knew about it and worked to come up with a different tour for us, an hour away where the weather was better. We had a patio with a breathtaking view of the city below and the Mediterranean Sea.

Desventajas: Really have no complaints. It was fabulous. If you were trying to visit Catania, this Hotel is in Aci Costello and wouldn't be convenient. And even for Aci Costello, one had to drive into town both for the distance and the safety of the walk on streets without sidewalks. But if this wasn't true the view wouldn't be fabulous! The parking was free on site, but not easy to navigate from the location on a blind curve and the dimensions of the gated entry. But it is Sicily and driving is NOT like it is in the states!

Ventajas: I Puppi, es todo lo que uno espera de un B&B y más, nos alojamos en la habitación Castello, una habitación cómoda y limpia, con un balcón grande, un baño amplio... y una vista espectacular!!!! Peppe, su dueño más su personal, hacen la diferencia. Él es un apasionado de su trabajo, disfruta sirviendo y explicando sobre comidas típicas sicilianas, lamentamos sinceramente no haber podido pasar más tiempo allí.

Ventajas: Increible trato de Pepe y Sofia. Habitacion muy limpia y estuvieron todo el tiempo pendientes de que no nos faltara de nada. Sin duda repetiria estancia con ellos.

Desventajas: El acceso a la casa esta en una curva de poca visibilidad y para entrar con el coche se hace un poco complicado

Ventajas: The host is very warm and friendly. Shared with us tips where to eat and what to see. I felt more like visiting a friend than staying in b&b.

Ventajas: Clean, very friendly, good breakfast, beautiful view to the sea, easy to park with the car. Pepe is the most friendly host I've ever met. Thanks for all ❤

Ventajas: The friendliest and most helpful hosts. Best breakfast in Sicily. Beautiful ocean view. I would like to come Pupi Catania Etna B&B again.

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: Good place to visit the Etna mountain, Syracuse & Taormina. Beautiful view on the sea. Staff is very kind and helpful.

Desventajas: Nothing.

Ventajas: the owner and the staff were very helpfull and created a friendly atmosphere. The Italian breakfast was perfect.

Ventajas: Everything was excellent, from our first day the staff went out of their way to help us. They even let us check in before the expected time. Peppe is a wonderful host, preparing breakfast which was extremely delicious, surprising us everyday with sicilian specialities. The room was very clean and the garden relaxing, with a spectacular view! A great place to stay!

Desventajas: nothing everything was very good!

Ventajas: extremely friendly staff and host. Beppe was charming throughout and helpful with hints and tips, local restaurants and places of interest. Breakfast was healthy and attention to detail of products offered which was amazing to see. Would have been even better if tea/coffee facilities were available in room. Overall keep it up Beppe and team! would visit again, highly recommended!!

Ventajas: Very friendly owner. We were there only one night but its very kindly place. The Best view to Aci Castello. Free parking was very important for us. Thanks

Ventajas: I'd like to say big thank you to Peppe for excellent stay, his hospitality, delicious breakfasts and highly recommend his B&B. Ideal location, if traveling by car, absolutely stunning view of the sea and cyclopean islands. Room was everyday clean, with very comfortable bed and everything is perfect done to make you feel at home. Peppe is the great host and always happy to help.

Ventajas: el trato personal y la habitación muy correcta.

Ventajas: El desayuno super bien, no me gusta mucho el dulce y les pedí salado y me pusieron un plato con jamón. El descuento para el lido de enfrente, que esta genial, El personal, muy amable

Ventajas: Friendly staff. Location was right across from the beautiful Mediterranean Sea. There are 2 very good restaurants across the street in walking distance from the B & B. Just a 10-15 minute taxi ride to Catania City Center.

Ventajas: The owners are very friendly and they do everything to help you.

Desventajas: I like everything.

Ventajas: La ubicación de Villa Ortensia es excelente en los alrededores de la ciudad de Catania, cuyo centro para la circulación y aparcamiento es realmente difícil para quien no está acostumbrado al tráfico de Catania. La zona de Villa Ortensia es muy tranquila, con vistas muy bonitas y con un personal muy amable. Aparcamento gratuito en el recinto de la Villa (en los alrededores el aparcamineto es de pago todo el día, incluidos días festivos). Hay una pequeña cocina disponible con una gran nevera, lo que es una gran ventaja si se pretende liberarse de la comida de restaurantes de vez en cuando. La relación calidad/precio me parece excelente.

Desventajas: Sería de agradcer disponer de un microhondas en la cocina. El transporte a Catania por autobús es muy problemático, sobre todo por la falta de información. Lo mejor es ir con el coche y aparcar en la Plaza de Europa... y uego a pie. Eché de menos algo de embutido en el desayuno.

Ventajas: Very nice place, but need some things to develop. The breakfast didn't include salty staff like eggs, ham, etc. There were tons of sugary things like cake, jam, cookies. It can be boring and unhealthy after few days so I suggest to put some salty into the breakfast (salty things can be requested +5 euro). The bed was not so comfortable it creeked every time I moved a bit. We arrived on sunday and the beach was very noisy (there was a dj). Luckily the weekdays are quiet. The landlady should be available on phone, we had some poblems to call her but we got a discount which was a nice thing from her.

Ventajas: Wonderful villa and very nice people. Flexible and helpful! Very nice garden and terrace. Good views from balcony. Excellent that you can park in front of the house. Perfect location for the good Lido.

Desventajas: Not much to say: Maybe the kitchen could be a bit better equipped with a few additional tools (like mugs, wineglasses, microwave, salad bowl)

Ventajas: everything

Desventajas: nothing

Ventajas: Staff and a villla is nice condition.

Desventajas: Bed was little bit uncomfy

Ventajas: We liked everything. It was one of our best vacations. The family, I say family because they were like family, made our stay so very comfortable. They really go above and beyond. We are making our plans for April to go back. We would go back sooner but jobs get in the way. I can´t say enough to ensure anyone thinking about choosing the villa for a vacation, will enjoy every moment of their stay.

Desventajas: our stay could have been longer.

Ventajas: Excelente la atención por sus dueños,

Ventajas: The accommodation was so fantastic, the room was so nice, exactly like the pictures. The host was so kind and friendly.

Desventajas: The location of the accommodation is good, in 50 meters there is a rock beach ( the entrace cost is 10euro/person), but the transportation is not so good in this area. The local bus is rare, so its better to rent a car to discover the island.

Ventajas: La ubicacion excelente. El personal muy amable.

Desventajas: La doble altura de la habitacion es incómoda porque el acceso al baño a media noche resulta una aventura. El aire acondicionado resulta insuficiente para refrescar los dos niveles de la habitación.

Ventajas: El personal muy amable, Alfredo es un encanto. Nos explico donde ir en la ciudad y como movernos

Ventajas: Suites Etna es un pequeño hotel en una avenida importante de tiendas de Catania y del centro histórico. El cuarto con techos altos, caja pequeña de seguridad y aire acondicionado. Baño muy amplio q fue muy bueno porque somos 5 de familia. Todo a pie. Tiene recepción y desayuno muy bueno incluido. El personal muy amable.

The breakfast was really nice, good juices, cheese etc. The lady serving it is also very hospitable. Overall, it is a cool place and I am happy to have started my journey in Sicily with Eco. I enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere after a long journey.

Desventajas: The booking process: I saw that the price included all taxes and charges, and on arrival was asked to pay the city tax. Also, the whole issue with room categories and number of beds is somehow misleading. And the bathroom is not in the room, it is next to reception.

Ventajas: Desayuno completo.

Desventajas: Había pulgas o chinches. Encontré dos de ellas en la cama. Higienicamente. Muy mal. Tengo muchísimas picaduras.

Ventajas: Extremely nice environment with an amazing common area, a lot of facilities like table tennis, video games, board games.

(visitar el refugio cittelli y hacer algunas de los senderos que alli empiezan). Grazie Raffaele!

Ventajas: La ubicación con diferencia. Está en la calle principal del la ciudad. Se puede ir andando a cualquier lugar.

Desventajas: La cama no era muy cómoda y salía algo de agua de la ducha.

Ventajas: The B&B is very centrally located. That is all the positive thing I can say about it.

Desventajas: 1. The owner changed the address of the facility but never informed us. It took us (both sixty plus) almost two hours with two large suitcases to find the B&B facility. The actual B&B where he made us stay was named differently (B&B Catania Etna) and was located at a different address (via Etnea, 198) than the address provided through 'booking.com'. A photo of the property front is attached here. 2. The owner does not accept any credit cards for payments. 3. The room was stuffy and the a/c didn't work properly.

Ventajas: The location it was perfect and reachable for shopping and restaurants even for the public transport.but from the booking.com the hotel address is writen 290 via etnea but they told us that 3 years ago moved to same street but the nbr was 196.so if you please arrange it .I,m very satisfied for my staying in b&b massimo

Ventajas: La situación es perfecta,y está en pleno centro,tiene un baño con hidromasaje y está muy limpio,el trato es bueno,

Desventajas: La dirección no es la que pone,ni tampoco el nombre,tuvimos que llamar para que nos indicaran,las llaves se recogen en un edificio y la habitación está en otro,había muchos mosquitos y pican,el desayuno lo cogimos como buffet y no lo es,te lo dan en el bar de abajo y solo un café con un bollo pequeño,para los que les gusta desayunar bien es escaso,en el baño no había secador y ponía que si

Ventajas: Location

Desventajas: Mosquitoes in the room and the host didn't even react to do something about it.

Ventajas: Nice staff, breakfast was okay, nice room and view.

Desventajas: Wrong adress on the booking so we had problems with finding the b&b.

Ventajas: Very quiet room tucked off the busy street. Hosts were excellent when flight was severely delayed and waited up until very late at night for our check in. Spacious and comfortable room.

Desventajas: Bathroom was a little bit dirty/mouldy. Bath/shower didn't drain very well.

Ventajas: You get good value for money. The room is very small. There is no coffee corner. Breakfast at a nearby coffee shop, coffe and croissant only. Excellent location. Small room.

Ventajas: A highlight of our trip to Sicily! Beautifully, almost luxuriously, furnished and extremely friendly staff. Wish we had more time to spent there.

Desventajas: The location is a bit off the center of town, but not too much. It the decorations more than compensate for this.

Ventajas: Very quiet and comfortable

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: The immediate surroundings are perhaps typical of some of the back-street areas of Catania, however, the Liberty Hotel is an absolute real GEM. It offers tranquillity, with a wonderful welcoming and restful ambience. Having said that, the staff are so friendly, helpful and personable, who take 'service' to another level. Around the corner within just a few minutes walk are excellent local restaurants serving great fresh food and hospitality. The main square for buses, - inc. Airport bus is just 5 minutes walk away, - with many of the sites also being in reasonable walking distance. The hotel is quite exceptional for what it offers, and our stay exceeded expectations and was a wonderful bonus to our holiday!

Ventajas: Breakfast was good and staff friendly and very helpful. We were upgraded to a bigger room so that was a nice surprise.

Desventajas: I would have expected an iron and coffee making facilities.

Ventajas: Lovely hotel with fantastic staff. The breakfast was great. The rooms are decorated in a fabulous style. I enjoyed the cocktails we had in the lobby after a hot day of sight seeing

Ventajas: The staff were exceptionally kind, corteous and helpful.

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: La atención de Silvio

Desventajas: Nada

Ventajas: El conjunto (habitación + servicio) estupendo. Personal muy amable y resolutivo. Enhorabuena

Ventajas: Very helpful staff. Very clean and quiet rooms. I was fortunate to be upgraded to a suite. Very nice! Breakfast was nice.

Ventajas: Location

Desventajas: Nothing. Everything was great

Ventajas: Lovely location and beautiful service.

Ventajas: Staff is super competent, kind and proactive; at my request, I had gluten-free food for breakfast. Candied orange peels and sugar coated almonds were a great local plus!!! Ambience and furniture (in Liberty style) made the atmosphere special. Gorgeous jasmin berceau outside!

Ventajas: El hotel estaba ubicado en un palazzo reformado al lado de la Piazza de la Universita y del Duomo. La habitación era muy espaciosa, recientemente reformada, sencilla y con buen gusto. Carmelo, el dueño, muy simpático nos recibió personalmente y hasta nos subió las maletas y hablaba un español muy bueno. Sólo estuvimos un día, y nos sorprendió la belleza de Catania y su historia, así que esperamos volver, y a ser posible a este mismo hotel

Desventajas: El baño no estaba a la altura del resto.

Ventajas: Todo! Localización, trato, instalaciones! Perfecto.

Desventajas: Nada

Ventajas: Mr. Carmelo and his brother with the staff Christian were very helpful and nice. The location of B&B is more than perfect ( city centre) . With all my heart we recomend this accomodation.

Ventajas: The friendliness of the host. Carmelo was very welcoming.

Ventajas: the location is great and the owners very friendly and helpfull

Desventajas: The breakfast could be better.

Ventajas: Carmelo fue muy amable y un excelente anfitrión. La casa rehabilitada con mucho gusto y cuidado. La habitación preciosa, cómoda, limpia y muy bien aislada de los ruidos. Reperiamos sin duda!

Ventajas: Great location. Lovely room in an old Palacio but with modern facilities. For breakfast you get a voucher to use in a v nice cafe 50 meters away. . Coffee, juice, brioche.

Ventajas: Located a block away from the University square!! Book this B&B and you will not be disappointed!!! Our group stayed in 3 of the four rooms available. Each room can comfortably fit 5 people and maybe 6 if one person uses the foldable cot. The rooms are like a “loft style”. If you have small children just make sure they don’t climb the stairs to the upper part of your room. Bathroom is clean. There is a refrigerator but make sure it’s plugged in as they don’t plug it in 24/7 to save energy. Check in was easy even if we arrived in the evening. Beds are firm but still comfortable. Parking is on the street - we had problems with this but our host accommodated to help us! Food options and restaurants are just a few steps away. Fun fact: Bellini, the music composer, worked in this building!!! Our host told us this fact... Very cool!

Desventajas: There’s no elevator so if you have big luggages, you’d have to bring it up 3 flights of stairs.. the B&B is located on the 2nd floor.

Ventajas: Carmelo greeted us and helped carry our suitcases up the stairs. It is on the 2nd floor. He was so lovely and welcoming. I stayed with my husband and 6 year old son and we felt the room was big enough. It had double windows that block out any street noise. It is in the best location with everything right outside your door. The room was so clean! It was absolutely spotless. I was so impressed because I am O.C.D! Not a spec of dust to be seen. Breakfast was good. Got a pastry, juice and coffee per person and it is at a cafe just down stairs in the square. Would highly recommend and if we are ever in Catania again we will be back for sure!! Thank you Carmelo

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: The Hotel is in the ideal spot exactly in the heart of Catania; very close to all shops and amenities. The host Carmelo was very nice, available at all times and very efficient. Room was clean and tidy with daily cleaning routines. Christian was very gentle and assisted us when we needed. Thank you. Keep up the good work.

Ventajas: Excellent location, and noise reduction windows extremely efficient. The bar for which we received vouchers for breakfast was excellent (delicious pastries and good coffee).

Desventajas: We found the bed and pillows extremely hard and uncomfortable. I had back-ache after 2 nights. There is a coffee machine in the entrance, for which capsules need to be bought at reception. This was not indicated, and it was lucky I noticed the machine and asked at check-in. Guests should be informed of this option at check-in.

Ventajas: Great owners, very friendly and dedicated to the guests. You can count on them in every matter. Super breakfast, great location. Greetings for the owners. Next time in Catania we would stay at your B&B for sure!

Desventajas: Everything was great!

Ventajas: La habitación cuádruple es un palacio.. impresionante

Ventajas: La habitación estaba muy bien y los chicos eran muy agradables

Desventajas: El edificio está fatal. Daba hasta algo de miedo. Está céntrico, pero el barrio es chunguillo

Ventajas: Convenient location between the city center and the train/bus station, near to an airport bus stop. Rich breakfast buffet in a spacious terrace. The single room was spacious with a great bathroom. Rosario was very kind and helpfull.

Desventajas: Very old building although with a special character. The matress was a bit uncomfortable. The cleanliness needs something more.

Ventajas: Fantastic b&b, with a great host who couldn’t do enough for us. Five minutes walk from the railway station and one minute from the centre.

Desventajas: Nothing.

Ventajas: Around 10 mins walking from the main bus/train stop from where all buses go. Inside the b&b area everything seems to be very nice and cosy, good internet connection, lovely and helpful staff.

Desventajas: The neighborhood is not really clean, pretty dirty even the building itself is not looking very nice, but once you get inside, you feel like you re in a different place.

Ventajas: The staff was really helpfull, room was good decorated and new when you consider with the building age. Breakfast was really good. Short walk distance to train station.

Desventajas: The surrounding area was not that great :) also the building is too old and no elevators.

Ventajas: The host Christian was charming, and took the time to tell us some very interesting history about Catania in general and the b and b in particular. The room was very large, and although modern, had a high decorated ceiling that made one feel as though sleeping in a palace. The breakfast was wonderful!

Desventajas: The exterior of the building and stairway to the b&b are in very poor condition and the street outside reflects the poverty of parts of Sicily.

Ventajas: Staff was very nice, they waited for us because we were late. Room looked new and was clean, breakfast was absolutely OK. Hotel is located close to the downtown, just few minutes walk.

Ventajas: The guys who work there are very nice, breakfast is super ok, the rooms nicely renovated, cleaning done daily, if the building itself would be eventually renovated it would be lovely. Not the fanciest neighbourhood indeed, the other buildings need a bit of renovating as well, but the people seem ok, we've had no incidents . :)

Ventajas: Comfortable modern rooms

Desventajas: Probably not suitable for children

Ventajas: Staff was excelent! Very helpful Room was very nice, clean and quiet. Location is good, 10 minutes walking to the historial center. 7 minutes from the central station if you are coming with the bus from the airport.

Desventajas: Surroudings and the building are a little bit odd. Felt some kind of insecurity there. Better if you go with people and not walk during the night. But, Catania is decadent and most of the neighborhoods are the same, so no need to worry in excess as is just a perception and nothing really happens.

Ventajas: The location of the Room is excellent. İt was realle hard to find the hotel. But they need to say near MC donalds than easy. The place they serve breakfast is really nice. But the location is excellent. You can make a city tour by walking from hotel.

Ventajas: Location was perfect, the room was ok and ac worked perfectly.

Desventajas: Towels not changed, not cleaned, wifi not working

Ventajas: if you want to be in the centre of town this is the place to be. Very close to restaurants bars and shops. There is a small shared kitchen where you can cook a meal or make coffee.

Desventajas: Parking on the street is a crime. You can park your car a five minutes walk from the appartment. This is a secured parking.

Ventajas: That is in the centre

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: Excelente ubicación. Muy cerca de lo q hay q ver de Catania y muy cómodo para llegar a la Estación central de trenes

Desventajas: Q son 2 pisos por escalera y el edifico en general no está en muy buenas condiciones.

Ventajas: Excellent location...very friendly and very willing to help ...would come again and again!!

Desventajas: Nothing to complain about!!!

Ventajas: Centre

Desventajas: It was.fine and easy to reach my goal

Ventajas: Nice place and big room. Perfect experience

Ventajas: very good location.

Desventajas: i had asked in advance if it was a problem when we arrive at 1am because our plane arrived late and was told it was no problem. when we arrived we were asked to pay 14€ "city tax" by the receptionist. we saw online that city tax was only 1 to 1,50€ per person, so we didn't want to pay it, because we weren't told about that in advance. the receptionist was very insistant and then called someone (the owner?) because his english was better, who said the 10 euro were an extra fee for our late check in and only the 4 euro was city tax. but that there was a problem with the water so we could talk about that in the morning. in the morning someone had texted me on whatsapp if everything was ok. at the reception they again wanted the money from us and then we again talked on the phone and were told we only had to pay the 4 euro because of the problem with the water (that was leeking out of underneath the shower). after we had left he asked me to leave a 10 point review here, which unfortunatly i cannot. long story short: if you charge for late check in, please put that on your website + inform your guests about it before they arrive, espically if they ask you if a late arrival is a problem.

Ventajas: the staff messaged me everyday to see if everything is oki

Ventajas: Ubicación

Desventajas: Escaleras de acceso

Ventajas: Location, kind host, cleanliness

Desventajas: Noise from the street

Ventajas: Great location close to the main sights and restaurants Also very comfy bed

Ventajas: Breakfast was okay and the staff was very helpfull. But a little bit less enthousiast would be nice. They kept talking in the morning while we wanted have breakfast quietly.

Desventajas: The beds are not very good: one was to hard en the twinbed was to old: my husband has pain in his back as result of this bed.

Ventajas: Very friendly and helpful lady, Antonella. When in Italy I try to speak some Italian - I am a guest - but Antonella spoke such good English, I gave up! The flat was comfortable, clean, and the bedroom was nice and light, when the curtains were drawn, with a high vaulted ceiling. The flat opened out onto a substantial courtyard which was a real treat. Breakfast was very good.

Desventajas: Wi-fi. A real problem. It worked well in the courtyard, but in the flat - forget it

Ventajas: Excelente atención del personal! Muy linda la habitación!

Desventajas: Tres pisos de escalera, si vas con equipaje pesado puede ser algo incómodo.

Ventajas: Feels like at home. Very kind service with Beatrice and Janny! Would come back!

Desventajas: -

Ventajas: Many thanks for your hospitality. Both Gullia and Lucia are very nice and helpful. Very clean and comfortable room, with an air conditioner, clean bathroom with shampoo and hair dryer. Good breakfast with tasty espresso!!! Excellent!

Desventajas: Pillows were horrible!

Desventajas: We had a hard time finding parking but we eventually found a spot

Ventajas: Friendly host. Clean room. Near airport. Great pizzeria Vicolo at 500 meters, giant pizzas (1 is enough for 2 persons!), very good.

Desventajas: B&B is simple but sufficient for 1 night, not more. Bed is just a few wooden pallets with matrass. Very simple breakfast.Catania center is a disaster, heavy chaotic traffic, not clean, very narrow streets. B&B difficult to find. Free parking between 20-8.

Ventajas: Lovely kind helpful hosts. Excellent breakfast. Good value for money. We found street parking outside easily. The hosts explained how to pay for the parking.

Desventajas: The walls are super thin so first might a Sunday was very noisy. Next two nights it was fine.

Ventajas: The room was very clean and the staff very kind people!Our stay was very nice!

Desventajas: Everything was great!

Desventajas: There was no free public parking in the neighborhood.

Ventajas: La atención muy buena, muchas recomendaciones sobre los lugares para visitar

Desventajas: En general el área y el edificio es ruidoso

Ventajas: La situación, cerca del centro. El desayuno está bien. Personal amable.

Desventajas: La cama. La habitación era más pequeña de lo normal y oscura.

Ventajas: The location is good, 10 minutes walk from the main street in Catania with lots of shops, restaurants and bars.

Desventajas: When I reserved the apartment it was noted that the check in time ends at 9 pm, however what was not noted anywhere was that the later check in after 9 is additional 15 euros! I was informed about this later in an email although the booking was not refundable otherwise for more than 60 euro for a night I would have stayed in a hotel. [ I wrote the check in time during the booking and I received an email 2 days later ] The pillows were really really hard and we had trouble sleeping whole night. Although it is written that there is a free parking, if you arrive with an evening flight as us, you wont be able to find one because it is a public parking on a street.

Ventajas: The receptionists were all friendly and ready to answer any questions, including giving advice on where to spend the day. The place is clean and the rooms are a good size.

Desventajas: There is practically no sound proofing so it can be loud, depending on how many people are in the b&b at the same time. It's also quite far from the centre on foot, and even further from the train and main bus station.

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

Desventajas: Nothing.

Ventajas: 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.

Desventajas: The AC was not very strong in the rooms or the gym. The gym was also very minimalistic. Only one treadmill and one bike.

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

Desventajas: It was too noisy in the early morning. There was noise from the nearby building

Ventajas: We wanted a nice place that was fairly close to bus/train stations as we intended touring a bit. The hotel was perfect for this, BUT, it is a leisurely 15 minute walk to Etnea Street and city centre. We throughly enjoyed our stay there - would have been great if there'd been a plunge pool/jacuzzi in the relaxing area to cool off in the heat.

Desventajas: As stated, a plunge pool or jacuzzi in relaxing area would have been fantastic. Staff were great, breakfast super and it just had a good safe vibe.

Ventajas: It was an amazing experience overall! Modern design of the rooms, really nice breakfast and the staff really friendly and helpful. I’ll definitely stay there again if I go back to Catania.

Desventajas: If you have a car, there is no parking space provided but that was not a problem in our case.

Ventajas: La atención del personal fue muy buena, nos dieron muy buenas recomendaciones tanto sobre sitios turísticos como de restaurantes. :)

Ventajas: Everything else. All the hotel, the staff, the room, the breakfast. Everything was amazing and beautiful! We would love to stay more time to really enjoy the place.

Desventajas: Lack of parking but that's all

Ventajas: The English speaking staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms were clean but thin walls so depending on what room you have it can be quite noisy. Hotel is easy to reach from the airport via Bus, the stop is just around the corner.

Ventajas: Lovely friendly helpful staff. Very convenient location for trains and buses. Loving the decor!

Desventajas: Tea and coffee making facilities in the bedroom? (But they were available in the reception so not really a problem)

Ventajas: It is near the central bus and train stations, the staff was very friendly, the breakfast is good. It is very lovely decorated and the room we were in was on two floors. The bed, tv and a mini bar are upstairs.

Desventajas: The bathroom needs good cleaning because of the scale in the shower, but everything else was (looked) clean. They change your towels even though you didn’t leave them on the floor. The pillow was very hard, but that is just my feeling.

Ventajas: The location, the staff and the room was great

Desventajas: More salted choices on breakfast.

Ventajas: The staff were friendly and helpful. The split-level double room was really nice and spacious. The shower was great. Breakfast was well presented and plentiful. Great location close to the bus and rail stations.

Ventajas: confy

Desventajas: noises from.other rooms

Ventajas: El personal, no solo fueron amables, siempre dispuestos a ayudarnos, sino que también hablan español muy bien. El WIFI en todo momento fuerte y sin cortes. La habitación limpia, atendida todos los días, incluso el domingo. El desayuno, suficiente y muy bien atendido. Definitivamente regresaría.

Desventajas: No tenemos quejas ni sugerencias. Todo perfecto.

Ventajas: Very friendly staff. Nice and comfortable stay. Clean room and stable internet.

Ventajas: The B&B was very good. Our flight was late arriving so we got a taxi from the airport which cost €32. Christian was waiting for us and gave us directions where to get something to eat. The area itself is not the nicest but it is in fact only about a 5-7 minute walk to the center which is very nice. It was dark and we got a bit lost but to simply, turn left when you go out the front door, take the next left at Panifico and it is straight down to the main street. You can actually walk through the park. Christian allowed us to leave our bags the next day while we looked around the city and we picked them up later. I would highly recommend this B&B for good value and proximity to the centre.

Ventajas: It was clean, spacious and in a good location

Desventajas: The bathroom was not very well maintained. And it was across the corridor.

Ventajas: Todo estaba muy limpio y el personal del hotel es muy amable. Excelente relacion calidad/precio

Desventajas: nada

Ventajas: La localizacion, perfecto para aparcar si tienes coche y cerca del centro

Desventajas: La cama malisima y los desayunos pobres

Ventajas: The host Christian was amazing and exceptional. Friendly. Made me coffee on arrival. Helped me with parking. Thank you!

Ventajas: The room was extra big, we found parking place in front of the hotel on the street without any problems (on a Monday in September at 7 PM). We have chosen the place, because we wanted to overnight next to the Trattoria(s) at the corner of Via Plebiscito and Via Lago di Nicito (TRY THEM! Especially the horse meat balls!!!). There is a bakery with friendly stuff under the hotel. I recommend this hotel.

Desventajas: We didn't like the coffee in the morning (compared to the coffee elsewhere in Sicily). The host was a friendly guy, and we understood everything we needed, but don't expect a big conversation in English.

Ventajas: La cama extragrande lo mejor....

Desventajas: El lavabo era muy pequeño, todo lo demas correcto.

Ventajas: Nice property, decent location.

Ventajas: Comfortable bed. Close to city center. Pleasant staff.

Ventajas: Great big room with a lovely balcony. The B&B is a 12 min walk from Bellini park and Via Etna, one of the main streets.. The area is nice and quiet and the hosts are very helpful. Stayed 3 nights Really liked Catania, plenty to do and see

Ventajas: It is a geat place with caring stuff, they will help you with everything . There is personal care and touch from stuff before arriva by textl , making sure that you are ok . I didn't come across it before. I highly recommend the place . The location is so Central as well.

Ventajas: The place way perfect - close to city centre and very close to transportation (train, bus, taxi). The staff was perfect - kind and helpful.

Ventajas: Breakfast could be a bit better and more differential.

Ventajas: Everything was fine, we had a good stay here. :-) The staff is very polite and helpful, the rooms are nice and clean, the breakfast is acceptable. You can park your car for free in the nearby streets, as long as you keep of the places marked with blue lines.

Ventajas: Ubicación y personal

Desventajas: Habitación de dos plantas con camas individuales separadas. El desayuno poco variado, sin fruta. Se oía mucho ruido de una puerta de emergencia al cerrarse por la que no dejaba de pasar gente... Al final llamamos a recepción y bloqueó la puerta.

Ventajas: Las habitaciones eran muy amplias y el desayuno buffet abundante

Ventajas: Good location fairly close to train and bus stations (walking distance), and close to great restaurants. Good value for money. Large room.

Desventajas: A little noisy from guests internally.

Ventajas: Kind of cleaning service every day. Good towels:) Air-conditioning is really good!

Desventajas: Breakfast - we stopped going there after the 1st day. Coffee was really bad for Italy :) Croissant was undercooked, no choice at all. Don't waste your time going there. There is a nice place called Di Dio just 5 min from the hotel. There were no hangers in the 1st room. We asked, then we had to go for them to the reception. Noone could bring to the room? In the 2nd room there was only 1 hanger.. For a toilet paper when it's finished we also had to go to the reception..During cleaning they didn't put an extra one :d The shower holder was broken but noone fixed it neither before, nor during the say. The cleaning lady couldn't not to notice that it needs to be fixed.

Desventajas: Faltan más productos en desayuno y también gluten free.

Ventajas: Very helpful staff. They sorted out a problem when one of our party had forgotten to bring their passport. They gave us good advice on nearby restaurants. They ordered us a taxi and kept our luggage safe after checkout but before we left the city.

Desventajas: All the scrambled eggs and bacon were gone because we got up too late for breakfast!

Ventajas: Ubicacion, amplia habitacion, muy limpio y la atencion del personal de 10

Desventajas: Nada de malo. Todo muu bien, atencion, servicios y limpieza, por poner un pero el desayuno muy escaso en variedad, pero eso no es algo tan malo

Ventajas: Amazing room

Desventajas: Breakfast to sweet

Ventajas: La limpieza de las instalaciones

Desventajas: Que estaba un poquito alejado del centro.

Ventajas: The room is amazing. I wish I knew it was a jacuzzi room cause I would of had that set up before I arrived. Best room that I have stayed in this entire trip. Walk out and right into the pool.

Desventajas: Hard to find a place to eat that is open before 7pm. Location isn't the greatest, but it is very close to the airport.

Ventajas: La atención fue muyy buena atentos y muy familiar

Ventajas: Frederico is the best host ever! Warm-hearted, attentive, humorous and always ready to please his guests. His family members are also nice, only I wish I had learnt more Italian phrases before my travel. ;) Also a big plus, Frederico is a good cook, his evening snacks and meals are delicious. The clean, neat room - however not big ones - and beddings are over our expectations. :) The garden pool is a pleasure, as well as the huge terrace with beautiful view of the sea. So thanks a lot for your hospitality! - Gyöngyi and Sanyi from Hungary -

Ventajas: This is a beautiful seafront property with private parking.

Ventajas: I appreciate the hospitality of all the people working at the place. Is the most beautiful place of the first line beach in Aci castello, you can move around making base there. If you want to be in peace, with a amazing view of the sea: you have to go to La terraza. Cecile, from Argentina

Desventajas: Without comments

Ventajas: Frederico was so helpful and willing to organise trips and suggest places to visit. He even invited us to his family bbq.

Desventajas: I would have liked a little more choice for breakfast.

Ventajas: The host Federico was lovely and very helpful, advising us on things to do in the area. The place is in between 2 small towns so lots of options for eating. The sea is beautiful and the beach bar across the road is very handy. You can rent sunbeds for around €6 per day there.

Desventajas: It would have been nice to get a drink around 5/6pm. The pool bar isn’t open til 8 and there is a nice terrace overlooking the sea but nowhere to buy a drink. We could have taken our own of course. Our room was on the small side for the price but it was nice and comfortable.

Ventajas: the property has a pool, a gorgeous terrace and the view is stunning. It also has private parking, and the breakfast was extremely nice.

Desventajas: The overall feeling of being graced with the possibility of sleeping there, and not being treated as a paying guest. At one point, I was asked if we smoked in the room (which was 5m from a terrace where you could smoke freely), for absolutely no reason, as nobody entered the room or had any suspicion we would do that. I felt accused for no reason. I really didn't like this constant feeling of remarks, expecially when rules are not clearly stated. The room was extremely clean, but very small, and the door offered no privacy whatsoever as it was directly next to the kitchen and right next to the terrace, and there was a one cm space between the door and the floor.

Ventajas: Vistas al mar desde la terraza comunitaria. Parking gratuito. La señora que lo lleva es atenta y te sirve un buen desayuno.

Desventajas: La piscina no tenía bar, era una barra con cuatro botellas que nadie atendía. La piscina poco cuidada. Habitación pequeña y un poco anticuada.

Ventajas: Small friendly Family run B & B close to the town centre, walking distance to great restaurants. Very nice pool area, sadly the bar did not open until 8 o’clock, when on holiday it’s nice to have a drink before dinner...Frederico and his Brothers were lovely always happy and smiling

Desventajas: Breakfast was the usual sweet pastries, nothing amazing...

Ventajas: Breakfast was very good with beautiful sea view. Federico and his mom were friendly and helpful. I reccomend this place.

Ventajas: I was looked after as part of family.The family I met was very lovely and friendly.Federico gave me a little tour around Catania and his little village on my pick up trip to his bed and breakfast.I loved every min I spend there.I felt safe on my own.

Desventajas: I didn't like little cafe where they sold me not nice cofe and wasn't clean.I didn't like how was my trip organised by excursion agency to Etna.But it's nothing to do with bed and breakfast I was staying

Ventajas: La piscina y el salón del desayuno fantásticos.

Ventajas: La habitación y las instalaciones de 10 muy recomendable

Desventajas: La ubicación sería la única pega

Ventajas: Everything

Ventajas: It was quite

Desventajas: We had a specific room booked and was given to others

Ventajas: Great facilities, nice hotel ground with amazing views. Has plenty of car park spaces , friendly and informative staff.

Desventajas: A bit away from the town and through winding roads, but worth it for the views.

Ventajas: It was very nice to have a bar and restaurant on property. Also, there was a large field nearby for my dog.

Desventajas: I thought the dinner was much more expensive than it should have been. Prices were too high all around. However, it was convenient.

Ventajas: Good breakfast, clean rooms, free large parking at the propriety, outside pool , nice view, value for money !

Ventajas: Perfect location to get some rest and relax!

Ventajas: The rooms were very nice and comfortable. The views of the coast were impressive. Pool area was nice.

Desventajas: Based on other reviews I expected the breakfast to be really good, but I was left disappointed. Especially as I had a better breakfast the following day at a B&B for a fraction of the price. I had a lunch on the afternoon I arrived, which was nice, but very expensive. With it, I ordered a glass of orange juice, but got orange fanta, which cost 5 euros! The WiFi was really unreliable also.

Ventajas: La habitación, la piscina y el transporte gratuito al pueblo/ playa Muy bueno el bizcocho del desayuno

Desventajas: La ubicación, el camino sin iluminar y mal asfaltado para llegar y poca variedad en el desayuno

Ventajas: La piscina espectacular! Muy profunda!

Desventajas: Mala ubicación, poco transporte mal acceso. En las habitaciones las almohadas eran muy delgadas.

Ventajas: La habitación amplia, confortable, luminosa,agradable, la cama muy cómoda. Las vistas espectaculares. El personal atento.

Desventajas: El desayuno podría ser un poco más completo, todo y que había variedad.

Ventajas: Room was quiet with windows to the courtyard. I don't know about street-side rooms (if there are any). Air-con included and worked very well. Breakfast was ok and included hot foods as well (scrambled eggs and cheap sausages). Location and price was why I chose this hotel. I arrived late and was catching a train the next morning. Just a stone's throw from the railway station with 24h reception.

Desventajas: No complaints, all good.

Ventajas: El desayuno es excelente. Con variedad de productos y para todos los gustos. En mi caso gusto mucho de comer omelettes y si bien no son ofrecidos, no tuvieron ningún inconveniente en preparármelos especialmente. El personal es super amable y atento a todas las necesidades de los huéspedes. Te recomiendan lugares para conocer y donde comer. Hablan varios idiomas lo que facilita la comunicación. El hotel está muy bien decorado y ambientado. Las habitaciones bien equipadas con todo lo necesario para una estancia sin complicaciones.

Desventajas: Me gustó todo. Sin dudas volvería a este hotel en un próximo viaje.

Ventajas: Hotel muy bien ubicado a 100 metros de la estación de tren; ideal para conexiones; habitación limpia y cómoda; buen desayuno; un patio hermoso lleno de verde; y Francisco (que estaba en recepción) nos atendió muy amablemente; muy recomendable!

Desventajas: No tengo objeciones

Ventajas: Almost everything about the hotel was excellent. Our room was amazing - period furnished, like the rest of the hotel, with perhaps an over-the-top sense of humour which we enjoyed. We had a view across the busy road and railway line but through tree tops to the sea. Double glazing on the windows was excellent so the traffic noise did not bother us at all. And the air con worked - even in July. Breakfast in the internal courtyard was very good and a pleasant shady environment despite the heat. The hotel is just across the road from the railway station and bus stop for the airport.

Desventajas: The area in which the hotel is located is the seedy end of town, with few enticing eateries within say a 10 minute walk. And the urban area between the hotel and town centre was down-at-heel, in poor repair and graffitied, and so unpleasant to walk through.

Ventajas: Nice hotel, good breakfast! Close to Railway and Bus stations.

Desventajas: Wi-Fi not very good worked(((...

Ventajas: La atención de Fina, la señora que me atendió en el desayuno, todos los muchachos de la recepción. Nos llamo mucho la decoración del hotel. Hermosos jardines. Hay aire acondicionado en todo el hotel

Desventajas: No hubo algo particular q me desagradara.

Ventajas: Very good environment and a variety of selections of breakfast on the patio. Very close to central train station and central bus stations.

Ventajas: Personal del hotel, las instalaciones.

Desventajas: Un poco apartado del centro, pero no mucho. Las almohadas.

Ventajas: En realidad el hotel tiene una ubicación muy buena si lo que deseas es facil acceso a la estación central de trenes y buses o facilidad para el trasporte hacia el aeropuerto. Si lo que buscan es estar cerca de la playa, este no es su hotel, o si desean tener una localización más central recomendaria uno más cerca al centro historico, aunque en realidad no está muy lejos de este. Las instalaciones son excelentes, muy comodas, y el servicio es muy bueno. El desayuno es también muy bueno.

Desventajas: Si hay alguna mujer que viaje sola le recomiendo preguntar muy bien que calles no tomar para llegar al hotel. En la recepción me dieron un mapa con el centro historico marcado y las principales calles, sin embargo, de regreso al hotel desde el centro historico tomé una calle donde se situan todas las prostitutas y la población que vi no es la mejor (no me sentí segura). El sector donde está el hotel puede parecer un poco solitario y no muy amigable para una mujer sola despues de las 6pm.

Ventajas: Helpful staff Parking available

Desventajas: Location- good for train station A bit rough in one direction - dirty streets Room facilities need refurbishing

Ventajas: La atención de todo el personal. Mención especial merece Francisco que fue todo amabilidad y puso todo de su parte por hacer nuestra estancia sumamente agradable...Recomendable sin lugar a dudas. Volveremos. Grazie mille, Francisco!!

Ventajas: Fantastic hotel - great staff. We were upgraded to a very grand room. Francesco was amazing, so polite and helpful. Assisted us with mt Etna tour booking & anything we needed. Breakfast was good.
