A luxury, boutique hotel in the center of Catania

A luxury, boutique hotel in the center of Catania that excels at service. As a frequent visitor to Catania, I have stayed at countless hotels there and this hotel has soared to the top of my list.
The breakfast is a real treat!
They add whimsical art to a historic palace that also has many original pieces.
Great views of the piazza from my room and rooftop views that are among the best

Wonderful artsy palace

Loved this place. Funky art-filled restored palazzo. Very friendly and helpful staff. Delicious generous breakfast. Location is just off a pretty plaza, easy walking distance to the sights and restaurants. Wish we had more days here.

My stay was fantastic! It's a stay in a modern art gallery! I was greeted with smiling faces, graciousness, and helpful information. After check in, I was given a personal tour of the property and the artwork, which I loved! My room was beautiful with a great view! Breakfast and caffe were delicious! I had a welcoming glass of wine on the rooftop, which was lovely. If the sky is clear, you can see Mt Etna from there. The hotel is centrally located, making sightseeing very accessible. If/when I return to Catania, I will be staying here!

Los productos de tocador de gusto exquisito, la atención muy buena y el desayuno fenomenal. Sin embargo tenían el smart TV del hotel bloqueado cosa que es bastante molesto porque no puedes conectar tu Netflix ni hacer screen mirror desde tu teléfono, estás obligado a ver televisión italiana lo cual puede ser frustrante si no hablas el idioma.

The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. They helped us with the parking apt. We arrived early and were check in immediately. The property is very upscale with unique art everywhere including our room. The bedroom and bathroom were very spacious. The bed was very comfortable. The amenities included a great breakfast and manager cocktail event. The building terrace on the top floor had spectacular views. We shared a bottle of wine and pizza there. The location was in the old section so it was within walking distance to all of the sites and restaurants. Parking is difficult but they had a spot for us once we arrived even though we didn't use it. Catania is a must see city and Asmondo Gisira is the place to stay.

Most original and cool hotel where we’ve ever stayed. The staff was top-notched, very helpful and gracious. Location was excellent—next to the food and fish markets and walking distance to lots of main sights, restaurants and shopping. We stayed the night before a planned tour and liked it so much that we returned for a night after the tour and before flight home. During the second stay we heard some noise from goings on outside, but the first night’s stay was so quiet that we overslept our check-out time! Oops. Would have loved more time to enjoy the public spaces. Highly recommended!
