There are many charming elements such as an old fashioned elevator with red velvet seats and beautiful painted ceilings. You can walk to the main piazza. There is a municipal parking lot very close by. Let the owner know you need to park your car and she will send you the exact name. There is also a large park with a fountain and playground right next to the parking lot, less than a 10 minute walk. There is also an open air fruit/veggie market there too. The area right around the hotel is a bit run down but we felt very safe walking with our toddler and it’s such a quick walk to the piazza. The owner was very kind and helped us with some questions. We loved our room, it was spacious and the air conditioning worked very well! The ceiling was painted beautifully. We would definitely stay here again. ##### Vanessa Stayed 1 night in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### james Sep 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Exceptional property, with a fabulous pool ##### james Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Michela Jun 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities It was very loud since it was on a main road and our SC ##### Michela Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Amazing staff I only stayed for one night but Ester and everyone made me feel so welcomed and well taken care of.

The room seemed to be clean and had all that was needed. The building was interesting. We left before breakfast. Parking was within walking distance away and the ariport was a short drive away. The only negative was the street and entrance seemed shabby and the men "helping" with street parking for a fee were annoying. ##### Joseph Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elina Oct 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 10-2024 Mainio sijainti, kävelymatka tärkeimmille nähtävyyksille. Vilkkaasti liikennöidyn kadun varrella, tosin kaupungissa harvoin on hiljaisia katuja, meitä ei meteli härinnyt :) Huone siisti, kaunis stukkokoristeinen katto plussaa. Omistaja ja henkilökunta erittäin ystävällisiä. Myöhäinen check-in onnistui sekä taksikyydit lentokentälle sovitusti. ##### Elina Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Olivia Aug 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is very centrally located and the AC works well. ##### Olivia Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Boris Oct 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The hotel claimed it offers transfers from the airport for surcharges. In reality, when I requested the transfer to the airport, they called a taxi for 22-25 Euros. I also needed a transfer from the airport to the hotel after I have dropped a rental car, and they advised me to take an unfamiliar bus in an unfamiliar city. So, I had to take a taxi again. The conclusion is that this hotel DOES NOT offer the transfer. Also, for those traveling by car: you will be lucky if you find a parking space on the street near the hotel. So, I do not recommend this hotel, especially to those traveling by cars. ##### Boris Stayed 1 night in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alfonso Aug 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ottima posizione centro, personale gentilissimo ##### Alfonso Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Justin Sep 28, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Nice old building.

The bed and breakfast is ideally located, at 2 min walking to catania's heart. The building is very old and charming. Our room was decorated simply but functionally. Everything was clean and the bed very comfortable. ##### Valentina Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Charlie, Corpus Christi, Tx Nov 18, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely cute place..very happy with the management and owner. Nice comforting bed with lovely ceiling decorations, nice breakfast and the location is very close to the city center. I will definitely stay here again.. ##### Charlie Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Aug 25, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Room comfort #### charming, but underwhelming At first glance, I wanted to love this authentic-seeming B&B for it's good location (very close to the Duomo and the main historical center) and it's charm (painted ceilings, adorable sitting room...). But I was quickly disenchanted just a few hours after our arrival. We arrived at noon, and were welcomed by the owner (friendly, warm welcome) and told our room wasn't ready, but we could leave our luggage and return in one hour. So we had a quick lunch, and at 1:15 pm, our room still wasn't ready, and we were invited to wait in the sitting room. We waited for nearly another hour before we could finally go to our room. The room itself was clean and the bed was comfortable, the A.C. worked well. However, the bathroom was nothing short of a disaster. As this B&B is in an historic building, the plumbing had to be adapted to install bathrooms in many rooms using a sort of pump system connected to the toilet that was supposed to carry sewage and shower/sink water out of the room. The pump system was not working well: as soon as you start the shower or run to water in the sink, the smell of sewage fills the room, water also backed up in the sink and was very slow to drain, after taking a 5-10 minute shower, the pump box thing appeared to be leaking and there was water over half the bathroom floor. Flushing the toilet also proved slightly problematic (sometimes needs up to 3 or 4 flushes to flush everything). ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller May 6, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Amenities Posizione buona ma accesso complicato dalla necessità di avere molte chiavi poteva essere utile L a convenzione con qualche bar per la colazione ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Apr 29, 2019 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nicht zu empfehlen Die Unterkunft liegt sehr zentral, sodass man zu Fuss in wenigen Minuten bei der Kathedrale ist und die Dame beim Check-in war sehr nett. Aber das Bett war unbequem und es hat bei jeder Bewegung gequietscht. Durch die Türschlitze kam auf allen 4 Seiten Licht, sodass Schlafen unmöglich war. Der Lärm von der Straße hat seinen Teil beigetragen und kurz vor Mitternacht läuteten noch neue Gäste bei der Unterkunft, mit welchen sich die Besitzerin (?) der Unterkunft bis 2 Uhr im Wohnzimmer vor unserem Zimmer (zu laut) unterhalten hat. Das Badezimmer wurde in das Zimmer nachträglich eingebaut, da aber das Gebäude sehr alt ist, wirkt das Bad aber auch alt und nicht sehr einladend. Wenn man beim Waschbecken das Wasser aufgedreht hat, blubberte es in der Dusche und ein eckeliger Kanalgeruch machte sich breit. Wir würden die Unterkunft nicht empfehlen, obwohl man ja nicht weiß, wie es sonst so in dieser Preiskategorie in Catania ist. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Villa Sant'Andrea, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina Mare](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-Villa-SantAndrea.h889626.Hotel-Information) > > [San Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four Seasons Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-San-Domenico-Palace.h54173.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Plaza Manhattan Times Square](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-RIU-Plaza-Manhattan-Times-Square.h60677495.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton Edmonton Intl Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Suites-Edmonton-International-Airport.h1848963.Hotel-Information) > > [Ortea Palace Hotel, Sicily, Autograph Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Syracuse-Hotels-Ortea-Palace-Luxury-Hotel.h17825841.Hotel-Information) > > [Rocco Forte Villa Igiea](https://www.expedia.ca/Palermo-Hotels-Rocco-Forte-Villa-Igiea.h1671.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Piazza Borsa](https://www.expedia.ca/Palermo-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Piazza-Borsa.h3401456.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Hotel Palermo Quattro Canti](https://www.expedia.ca/Palermo-Hotels-BB-Hotels-Hotel-Palermo-Quattro-Canti.h972880.Hotel-Information) > > [Casa Nostra Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Palermo-Hotels-Casa-Nostra-Boutique-Hotel.h39551911.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Politeama](https://www.expedia.ca/Palermo-Hotels-Hotel-Politeama.h1427364.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hotel Palermo Centro](https://www.expedia.ca/Palermo-Hotels-Mercure-Hotel-Palermo-Centro.h1145743.Hotel-Information) > > [Canad Inns Destination Centre Health Sciences Centre](https://www.expedia.ca/Winnipeg-Hotels-Canad-Inns-Destination-Centre-Health-Sciences-Centre.h6058287.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Timeo, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Timeo.h889634.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Palermo](https://www.expedia.ca/Palermo-Hotels-NH-Palermo.h17957.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Isola Bella](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-Hotel-Isola-Bella.h1476673.Hotel-Information) > > [The Parlour Inn, an Ascend Collection Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stratford-Hotels-The-Parlour-Inn-Ascend-Hotel-Collection.h1060926.Hotel-Information) > > [NH Collection Taormina](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-NH-Collection-Taormina.h2601418.Hotel-Information) > > [Mazzarò Sea Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-Mazzaro-Sea-Palace-VRetreats.h983846.Hotel-Information) > > [La Plage Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-La-Plage-Resort.h1723708.Hotel-Information) > > [The Honeyrose Hotel, Montreal, A Tribute Portfolio Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Montreal-Hotels-The-Honeyrose-Hotel.h91267863.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Ontario](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Ontario-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d11178-tCheapHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Lloydminster](https://www.expedia.ca/Lloydminster-Hotels.d3995.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Omak](https://www.expedia.ca/Omak-Hotels.d9214.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels.d178245.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel Villa Paradiso](https://www.expedia.ca/Taormina-Hotels-Hotel-Villa-Paradiso.h1134809.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Dublin (DUB)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/dub/montreal-to-dublin) ### Packages > [Canada Agriculture and Food Museum](https://www.expedia.ca/Canada-Agriculture-And-Food-Museum-Civic-Hospital-Experimental-Farm-Central-Park.d6072515.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Niagara Falls Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls.d602721.Destination-Travel-Guides)
