Check in was perfect, they let me drop my bags off early so I didn’t have to carry them round. Check out on the other hand, I needed to check out at 8am and there was no one on reception. It is supposed to be staffed at 8am. I called the number on the door and got send to voicemail twice, in the end I missed my bus and had to wait at the bus stop for forty minutes for the next one

Was just in Catania by myself for one night as my travelling companions had earlier departures. Was looking for a safe, clean, conveniently located accommodation and Gattopardo House perfectly fit the bill. Check-in/-out were quick and easy and the room with private bath was updated, clean and comfortable. Well situated right off the pedestrian zone with short walk to airport direct shuttle bus service. Great stay, would reccommend.

Great location
Great location, in the center of Catania, within walking distance from major attractions, shops and restaurants. The building is from the 18th century, so don't expect anything modern. The rooms are clean, big and in fairly good condition.

Excellent location and comfort with more authentic charm. We had plenty of room in the spacious room we rented for 3 nights and 2 days. It was easy to navigate around the city with this location being so central.
