It was a really nice stay with good value for the price

It is in a really central position, really close to the bus station that goes to the airport. We had a nice elegant room, it looked like a palace room with a dome ceiling. Nice design and comfortable, and the price is really affordable, and there was a breakfast included. Also the staff was super friendly and helpful in giving advice about catania and the surroundings.

Esperienza deludente ma buona posizione

Purtroppo confermo alcune osservazioni già lette in altre recensioni. Al mio arrivo ho chiesto chiarimenti sulla richiesta di lasciare i dati della carta di credito al check-in, esprimendo qualche perplessità, soprattutto quando mi è stato proposto di inviare una foto della carta tramite WhatsApp - modalità che personalmente non trovo molto sicura. Purtroppo ho ricevuto risposte sgarbate e un atteggiamento piuttosto maleducato, che ha reso l’esperienza meno piacevole del previsto. Alla fine, il check-in è stato completato in presenza, e la carta è stata fotografata con il telefono del personale. Anche se l’intenzione era probabilmente quella di velocizzare la procedura, avrei preferito modalità più formali e rassicuranti. La camera era spaziosa, ma all’ingresso si avvertiva un odore sgradevole, simile a quello delle fogne. In compenso, l’hotel è in una posizione ottima, comoda per spostarsi. Infine, ho contattato il servizio clienti Expedia, che mi ha confermato che quell’hotel può richiedere una carta o un deposito cauzionale al check-in (di cui non si sa l’importo). È comunque lecito porre domande in modo educato e aspettarsi lo stesso tipo di risposta. Un plauso invece al servizio clienti Expedia che è stato molto disponibile, rapido, cortese, risolutivo e professionale.

The location is absolutely perfect. You can reach the hotel directly from the airport by taking the Alibus to the Bellini stop, which is right in front of the property. The place was spotlessly clean and wonderful throughout our entire stay. It’s within walking distance of all the major sights in the city. A special thank you to our hosts, Domenico and Marco – they were incredibly kind and always ready to help with anything we needed. I highly recommend this place!

Salve, Siamo arrivati e il ragazzo della struttura ha preso i documenti e in più ha voluto i dati della nostra carta, andiamo in camera e sommersi dai dubbi dato che mai nessuno ha preso i dati così privati, sono tornata da lui chiedendo spiegazioni, dato che con dei dati così privati si possono anche fare acquisti extra (cosa che anche lui mi ha confermato) ma mi ha detto che questa cosa la facevano per tutelarsi dai danni, con tutta l’esperienza che ho nel settore e viaggiando spesso ho evidenziato che era per noi la prima volta che qualcuno prendesse queste informazioni private poiché c’è EXPEDIA che tutela sia loro che noi, quindi ho chiesto di cancellare questo dato sensibile e lui ci ha detto che o sottostavamo a questa loro folle regola o potevamo andare (scortesia!, non si può dire così, cosa potevamo fare prendere le cose e dormire sotto i ponti? Comunque troviamo l’alternativa del pagamento caparra in contanti e così abbiamo fatto. Dopo essere usciti torniamo in stanza, avremmo voluto fare una doccia ma fortunatamente prima mi sono accorta che mancava il phon (c’era scritto che bisognava richiederlo alla reception) ma ovviamente era chiusa già a quell’ora, comunque decidiamo di andare a letto e basta. Stamattina andiamo per fare colazione e il ragazzo mi ha aggredito gridando e prendendomi per stupida per aver comunicato tutto ad Expedia. Io per altro Donna incinta. È STATO VERAMENTE VERGOGNOSO, sempre urlando ci ha detto di andare subito via! NO COMMENT

Charming boutique hotel in historic Catania

Small quiet hotel with personal attention from the staff, Domingo and Marco. The Alibus (airport) bus stop is conveniently located on the next block down the street and runs about every 15 minutes. The hotel is in the historic part of Catania with many restaurants and historic places in easy walking distance. Marco also offers small group tours of nearby sites such as Mt. Etnea for a reasonable price. He describes the history and local culture in great and fascinating detail.

Outstanding hosts, comfortable stay.

What really stands out about our stay at Etnea is the staff. Paola was very helpful to message with over WhatsApp, and it was truly a pleasure to meet Marco. He was kind, thoughtful, energetic, passionate, friendly, and just a fantastic host. For instance, we got there late in the evening and, correctly guessing we were hungry, he immediately upon check-in offered to take us in his car to a restaurant nearby that he recommended: Trattoria Da Peppino. The restaurant was very good and very reasonably priced considering the quality of the food, ambiance and service. Otherwise, the room was nice, it was clean, the beds were comfortable, breakfast was perfectly serviceable... It was a great stay overall.

  • I have two very minor complaints. The first is that there was no way to acquire bottled water late at night (drinking from the tap is discouraged in Sicily), so perhaps think of buying a bottle during the day/evening. The second is that there were no paper maps at the front desk. We were told this is to save on paper, which I guess is fair enough, but it's really valuable to be able to talk about the touristic locations and activities with a paper map on hand. Google Maps is great, but paper is easier to take notes on and to show other people than a smartphone. Thankfully, Municipio di Catania has some free paper maps of the city with the major landmarks listed.

Perfect! I recommend this hotel to all travelers for their stay in Catania

The location is excellent, the hotel is easy to find because it is in the very center of the city. The rooms are very clean, and the best thing about the hotel are the hosts! They are very friendly and open to all questions and advices (and we had a lot od them).

Not at all recommended

I asked for late check-in and they charged me 60€ just because they sent me an email with instructions. No employ was waiting for me to justify this amount. They also offered to charge me 50€ if I would pay in cash (is this tax evasion or what?) The place is the usual old building lightly renovated to pretend that it's a hotel and charge this ridiculous price, for the level of the accommodation. Terrible mattress, small uncomfortable bathroom, too noisy toilet flush refill. The breakfast was awful. Not at all recommended. There are a lot more nice places in Catania.

Hospitality was super. Marco & Domenico welcome us make us feel like we are in our home. Moreover, Marco was a perfect tourist guide, with all these details that we learned about the country we love Catania. The girls from Greece ............

Hotel viellot. Chambre tres sombre peu confortable et tres froide situe en etage avec ascenseur...en panne. Note que la reception parle plusieurs langue faux il ni a qu.un monsieur qui ne parle que l.italien et ne comprend que vous ne comprenez pas sa langue. Bref je suis partie plus tot que prevu.

In the middle of the city center and very safe even at night. The price is reasonable and the hotel itself is very antique and has a nice view. The host is very kind and generous. Enjoyed staying there.

  • The host was rude, intrusive, held on to our passports overnight instead of returning them asap creating tension in the morning as we had to check out early to get a bus and we're not sure whether we would get the passports back in time. The location is great. The rooms, while ornate and old worldly are very dark and impractical to get normal things done like packing your bags

The place is located 10 minutes walking from the Piazza del Duomo. In fro t of Villa Bellini. But the best part of this place is Domenico! This guy is the soul of this place!!! And his recommendations are priceless (best seafood in Catania) ❤️
