The hotel is in a great location just down the street from the main square. It is in an older building - the pictures on the site accurately depict what it looks like. The rooms are large and clean. The staff is lovely, and the breakfast is a nice perk. The front desk is open 24/7 which makes coming and going super easy. Very close to all the main sights in Catania.

Hotel stay
Checked in to hotel which was kinda hard to find, since its entrance was down a side street. Have to find the hotels name on the buzz in and the let you through the big wooden doors. Nice inside the courtyard you have to follow the signs to get to the front desk up three flights of stair. (No lift available) checking in was easy and the room was very nice with really cool architecture on the ceiling! Breakfast was great and free so that was a plus. Bad part no late check out past 11am. So up and out. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

Lots of pros, a few cons
No worries re cleanliness, or friendliness of staff. Julia and Oscar particularly worthy of mention. Breakfast is truly amazing. Variety and quality superb. It’s not easy to access (not well shown once you get there), and the stairs are a real killer. Our room was ok but very unpreposessing. Short walk to Via Etnaea and several reswtaurants. Also very cdonvenient for the airport bus stop (60 paces!)

68 steps
very friendly and helpful staff. Big room. Uncomfortable bed. Fairly easy to find. 10 minute walk from the station.Airport bus picks up across the road. Close to shops, eateries and attractions. 68 stairs from the street to reception and no lifts. Entrance is behind a locked (after hours) external street door and we never found out how to enter the hotel out of hours, we simply didnt go out at night. Staff had limited English

Lovely Central Hotel
The hotel was lovely and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Just be aware, although the hotel says it has a bar, it doesn't, there is a fridge in the foyer where you can grab a soft drink and pay at the desk, but this is it. I also think you can get coffees from there, but each time I asked,I was told the bar was closed! Overall, the hotel was lovely and the breakfasts were amazing. Would definitely return to this hotel.
