Manuela is amazing! She made our staff incredibly comfortable, provided a lovely breakfast each morning, and answered any questions. She even gave us some guidance on things to see and do. I would absolutely stay at this charming B&B again!
Caitlyn, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This property is lovely and the location can’t be beat for exploring Catania. It is just a few steps from Ursino castle and a couple of blocks from the amazing fish market. The room is spacious and beautiful. But what made it truly exceptional was the amazing care and hospitality of our host, Manuela. My daughter arrived before me and she looked out for her and really helped with check in and communication throughout. Highly highly recommended!
Rachel, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Host was so friendly and gave us many recommendations on what to do for our stay in Catania. We arrived before check in and asked to store our luggage until check in. To our surprise she got the room ready and we were able to check in early. They had breakfast every morning and coffee and water available in the lobby 24/7 which was great. The rooms were spacious and airy and very clean. I would stay here again.

This was a gem of a stay! Although it is a small and intimate space, our room was large and beautiful, with great attention to detail, and a family-style breakfast table. Manuela & Dario, and their on-site colleague, were an absolute delight.

Book this place!

We had a wonderful stay in an amazing room. Book room number 1! Large and very nicely appointed with three Juliette balconies a sitting area and amazingly comfy bed. Breakfast was very good and the hotel is located within walking distance to all the historical sites and very good restaurants. (Photo is of the ceiling in our room)
Leah, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Gorgeous rooms in older building. Spacious, well appointed, beds and bath very comfortable. Fabulous high painted and decorated ceilings. Good breakfast and helpful staff. The entry way is older and plain but delight ensues as soon as you open the door to the second floor. Very helpful getting a cab for early morning flight.
