I had a lovely stay at this hotel, with a great location right on Via Etnea and close to many restaurants and attractions. The rooms were generally comfortable, but I did notice a lingering smoke smell. The service was excellent, with friendly staff ready to assist. Dining options were nice, but I'd have enjoyed more variety for breakfast. Overall, it’s a solid choice, but the smoke issue was a bit disappointing.

I had a pretty good time at this hotel, located right in the heart of Catania. The rooms were interesting and fairly comfortable, and the staff was really friendly and helpful. On the downside, the narrow staircase was a bit inconvenient, especially when carrying luggage. The breakfast could also use a bit more variety, but overall, it was a decent place to stay for the price.

I had a decent stay at the hotel, with clean and comfortable rooms and a super friendly staff. The location was excellent, making it easy to explore the area. However, the dining options could use some improvement, and I found the room overlooking the main street a bit noisy due to traffic. Overall, it’s a good value for money, especially with the welcoming service.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location is fantastic, right in the city center and facing a beautiful park, but the noise from the restaurant below made it hard to get a good night's sleep. The rooms were clean and comfortable though, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The breakfast options could use some improvement, as they felt a bit limited. Overall, I think it offers good value for the location, but be prepared for some noise.

I had a mixed experience during my stay at this hotel. While the location was fantastic, right in the heart of Catania with great dining options nearby, the noise from the courtyard was quite disruptive at night. The service was excellent and the staff were very friendly. Unfortunately, the room comfort was let down by the noise levels and this was somewhat disappointing. Overall, it’s a decent place to stay if you're planning to explore the area, but don’t expect a quiet retreat.

My room was comfortable and decorated with elegant artworks, although the street noise could be a bit much at times.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, thanks to its great location just 500 meters from the Stesicoro Metro station and close to many tourist attractions. The rooms were decent but a bit noisy due to traffic, and it would have been nice if there were more power outlets and a better TV. The staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, which really enhanced my experience. While the breakfast was good, it could use a few more options for variety. Overall, it offers good value for money, especially considering the superb location.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, which is nicely situated right in the heart of Catania, making it easy to explore the area.
