This is not a typical hotel. We were met at the front of the building by front desk person and escorted to the second floor where their hotel floor is at. The staff member was very friendly and helpful. He actually saw my friends, leaving to the cathedral and walked with them and told them where to go, which was very nice. The location is fantastic. There is a bar /cafe on the first floor and they were very nice. Lastly, the hotel arranged for a transportation to the airport and it went off perfectly. I really enjoyed Catania and when I go back I will stay here again.

Nice hotel close to everything.

Nicola was fantastic and was extremely helpful and responsive. Gave us info on places to go and places to avoid and made our stay a great one by always being available for assistance. The place is very nice, however, if you plan on cooking like me it could use pans, chopping board and there’s not a lot of counter space. Otherwise I highly recommend. Close to everything.

A Unique and Stunning Stay

My university friend and I had once embarked on a miniature Interrail trip together, and now, with my daughter all grown up, this was the perfect place to reminisce about those adventures. From the moment we stepped into this beautifully designed space, it was clear that every detail had been carefully thought out. The standout feature? A stunning circular bed that was as comfortable as it was aesthetically pleasing. Whoever the architect was, they truly outdid themselves—this place is a masterpiece of design and functionality. Beyond the incredible interior, the location couldn't have been better. Just minutes from the Duomo, we were able to walk everywhere, making it the perfect base for exploring the city. The cleanliness was impeccable, and the attention to detail in every corner made the stay feel luxurious yet welcoming. Sitting in this stunning space, sharing stories of past travels, and creating new memories made for an unforgettable stay. A perfect blend of style, comfort, and prime location—I would return in a heartbeat!

This is an amazing hotel nestled in on a side street in the center of Catania. It’s closed to everything you need. I had an amazing dinner steps away from my room last night for Christmas. Nicola is an incredible host. He made sure that all my needs were met. After being in Rome for 5 days I needed a break from the hustle n bustle of a big city that’s very noisy. Well here at this hotel there is no outside sounds to be heard from my room besides the beautiful church bells ringing time to time. Very soothing. My travel plans changed due to weather and Nicola insured that I had an extra nights accommodation by moving his scheduled guests around. I can’t say enough about this hotel and Nicola. I rate this stay as a 30 out of 10!! To the moon and back. Don’t miss out on this wonderful little corner of paradise at the Dome! Grazie!

Nicola was amazing. From checking in to check out he was a pure professional. Very concerned with my well-being making sure everything was OK. I had a change in my travel plans due to weather in central Sicily and Nicola was able to move things around to accommodate me two extra nights. He was just amazing. I read this property as one of the best I’ve ever stayed at considering it’s in a city and if I had a rated out of 10, I would give it a 30 that’s how good this place is you cannot go wrong.
