The hotel is very good, very clean. Fantastic view from the breakfast room on the fourth floor. The service is very polite. I appreciate the freshly squeezed orange juice. One thing that surprised me was that when checking out, I was told that I had used the mini bar, which was not true.

We only stayed one night (to catch our early flight back to the US). The hotel was immaculate, and the rooms were spacious. The have a very nice restaurant on the 6th floor with excellent food. The staff was fantastic. When they found out we has to leave very early in the morning, they had packed breakfast snack bags waiting for us at the checkout desk.

So glad we picked this hotel. Beautiful property and very nice and helpful staff at desk. We could walk along the seaside, great restaurants, so nice and safe. The excursions we did picked us up at the hotel too. The rooftop bar was a great addition too.

Hotel was very nice and clean! Staff were helpful and complimentary breakfast on the rooftop was beautiful. I would totally stay here again. Only suggestion I have to make the hotel better is to not make the room doors slam when people enter/exit their rooms. My wife and I were woken up 3-4 times because room doors were slamming after 11pm and midnight.

The room wasn’t bad, enough space for two guests and the balcony was a nice touch. That’s where the good stuff pretty much ends, the restaurant staff were rather friendly and helpful as was the gent on reception but the hotel is tired and it’s covered up with odd decoration. The rooms are so poorly sound proofed, if you are even close to a light sleeper, you’re not going to enjoy your stay. Also, Friday night, the restaurant / bar in front of the hotel turned into what could only be described as a night club and I didn’t manage to get to sleep till 3am. The breakfast was good, thankfully but I wouldn’t consider returning to this hotel. Admittedly, it’s on the outskirts of Catania city but that is a good thing, Catania isn’t just a little rough and still raw in most places, it’s ugly, heavily littered and smells horrible on every street! Catania desperately needs a rebuild and a government to help them tidy it up in the hope to keep it tidy. Catania is not for the faint hearted of travellers, people aren’t kind or approachable and neither is the city. Traveller be aware, it is not for everyone and this hotel might look great to people who have just been through the city, however, looks are deceiving… it’s not a thorn on a rose bush but it’s not a flower either. I wish you a more pleasant experience if you choose Catania.

Wasn’t a good choice. The biggest problem is noise. Mainly from the corridor, rooms above and next. Door opening and closing all day and night. Breakfast was basic but pretty good. Amenities in the room very basic.
