Catania hotels near Roman Amphitheatre

Pros: Extremely central location vlose to many restaurants and bars and just outside of the main square.

Cons: The room was so hot we couldn't sleep. The AC in the room was set up to 16 degrees throught the whole night but it felt like there was no cooling at all and we could barely sleep due to the heat.

Pros: Everything was great! Carmelo is great! He helps with any issue, gives great advice, tells history, and take care of his guests! Hi recomended!

Cons: A little bit hard for parking, but Carmelo helps. Just ask!

Pros: Thank You Carmelo.

Pros: Very central location, near all of the main attractions. Anyone good on their feet can easily travel about Catania from this location. If you have a car Carmelo is excellent at helping you find a location to park. Carmelo gave out his personal contact information so that you could reach him for help at any time.

Pros: Mr. Carmelo and his brother with the staff Christian were very helpful and nice. The location of B&B is more than perfect ( city centre) . With all my heart we recomend this accomodation.

Pros: Location super central! Extremely professional and welcoming owner. Clean and large room and bathroom with personality. Good price. Very quiet aircon that you control yourself. Cool UNESCO listed building. Lots of charm.

Cons: Very noisy - old building, could hear neighbour's every word, and the fan, flush, footsteps etc. from rooms adjacent and above. Also people coming and going outside my door. A few times it was so loud I thought somebody was actually IN my room. But street noise was really limited, and with earplugs you would probably be fine.

Pros: Excellent location, great communication with Carmelo, room was in nice sicilian style :)

Cons: Although double window, I heard noises from a bar, which is located very close.

Pros: The size of the room was great and the location of the room couldn't be any more central. The bedding was ever so comfortable.

Cons: Be ready for 2 flight of stairs. The planks of the bedroom platform were squeaking all night as soon as you moved in your bed. The shower enclosure needs some maintenance

Pros: Man on reception was exceedingly helpful in sorting out my problematic onward booking.

Cons: No balcony, even though this was promised in my booking confirmation.

Pros: Clean comfortable and staff friendly

Pros: Really cheap, staff is excellent and helpful. Cheap self-service laundry (1.5 EUR for washing, 1.5 again for drying).

Cons: Location a bit sketchy. Rooms are college dorm rooms, with old furniture and lots of use. Breakfast not great, but to be expected for the price.

Pros: Nice interior and rooms comfortable. Seems it is a student residence / hotel in holiday season

Cons: Location- its in a very run down area and didn’t feel safe outside however it’s very convenient for the airport and just 15 Min walk to the historic old town.

Pros: Very spacious room with separate room for the kids.comfortable beds also. Good location, close to city center. Friendly staff also.

Cons: Very Pour breakfast.they tried to avoid refilling what was finished.also, we had to ask for fresh fruits and boiled eggs.the excuse was that the had run out of many things and the next replenishment would be 3days later!!! also the gym needs renovation because many things were out of order.

Pros: Super clean, super friendly, good location, good breakfast.

Pros: I came here after bad experiences in other places. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly from the beginning to the end. Especially one gentleman with glasses and the lady. The room was quite modern with security locs, air climation and the bathroom was very clean. Good wifi connection. There is a gym and breakfast included. I could finally do my laundry there too.

Pros: The staff are very helpful

Pros: We selected Katane Palace because it was close to the main station but turned out to be much better than we expected. It is actually a classy hotel with very nice staff, a great bar, excellent restaurant. There is also a beautiful internal courtyard. Room was very comfortable and tariff includes a sumptuous buffet style breakfast. Highly recommended.

Cons: The air conditioning in the room wasn’t very effective - had to keep the window open and brave the mosquitos! In room tea making facilities would have been welcome.

Pros: We had a lovely stay. Everyone was very friendly and provided great recommendations on how to spend our limited time in Rome. Will definitely stay there again.

Pros: Great location. Friendly staff. Beautiful building. Great lobby and courtyard. Great room cleaning.

Cons: Breakfast was poor. Bed wasn't comfortable. For the price there was a lack of amenities like boiler, tea, coffee. Bar food was overprized and not fresh enough. Our room was above the entrance and the elevator was noisy and kept us up most of the night.

Pros: Great location and good breakfast!

Cons: The beds and pillows were not comfortable

Pros: The indoor garden and the help and kindness of the reception.

Cons: We would be happy with some vegetables for breakfast.

Pros: Breakfast was very good. Hotel premises and facilities are outstanding.

Cons: Only not so positive aspect was distance of hotel to places of interest, and difficult parking.

Pros: Breakfast was very good. The staff were very obliging and kind to us when we arrived very late due to a delayed flight. They directed us to park our hire car and took good care of watching it.

Cons: Nothing to complain about

Pros: breakfast average, staff ok

Cons: mattress is too hard

Pros: Location, room space

Cons: Some small renovation works should be carried on in the rooms to bring the hotel to the next level (I.e. painting)

Pros: Personal was nice.

Cons: Extremely bad window isolation. You can hear everything from the street. I booked breakfast, but then they told me it is not included.

Pros: location

Cons: the hotel is almost run down. It desperately needs to be renovated

Pros: At the breakfast time you can get free glass of cava. Kept our luggages free of charge because of the late flight Staff while complaining putted some efforts to fix it Felt safe even the homeless people were sleeping almost by the door of the entrance of it

Cons: I have booked the room with the mountain Etna view and a balcony. I have payed more money just to have exactly that room for the very special occasion. They have upgraded me for the suit, but it was just a room with the ugly street view, just a bigger than regular. If I would have a chance and I would just cancel it. Beds were absolutely uncomfortable and the wallpapers were falling apart. Room carpets seems were cleaned properly long time ago and I started having dust allergy (I have small asthma). I am not even talking about dusty curtains. Reception - absoltely useless. When we have asked for the nice beach close by we were guided to some black sand beach with big waves, which is 15 min away. We have walked around 2 hours searching, but the ones around were just rocks or just kinda sandish with a fresh fish seller and come cats around. After making a pit stop at the coffee place and checking google we figured out that the nice one is 25 min drive from where we were. If you ever decide to stay in here just know that reception doesn't know much or doesn't really care. Breakfast for the value of money was absolutely dissapointing as for example coffee of one of our days was finished (more than 1 hour before the breakfast has been finished) as some other things. The staff was just relaxing and having their breakfast just by the side of the guests. Not a good selection of vegetables, just 4 kinds - two types of low quality letuce, worse ever seen tomatoes in Catania and something more what I don't remember. Even boiled eggs were not fresh!!! A bit of fruit, some juice, wafles and so on. No avena flakes, just kellogs style stuff. Looks good from far away. Would highly recomend places for food around the hotel. You will be surprised how good it is comparing to what you are getting in a hotel. Shower in a room was barelly alive as no water preasure and it takes some time to regulate it, sink was clogged.

Cons: Room condition not very good - mainly wall coverings peeling off, worn and just a bit 'tired". Breakfast very good, dinner was very poor. Bar service excellent.

Pros: Spacious room, bathroom comfortable, breakfast good, all staff very helpful. Great Location and car parking and guest pick up access was very convenient. The overall hotel building was quite grand however,generally needs restoration throughout.

Cons: Carpet and furniture throughout was very dated and threadbare. Elevators not safe, due to door closure not sensitive to obstruction either by a person or object. Room/Door was squeaky, Light fittings were loose and coming away from the walls. Again, the building is quite grand and is in dire need of updating to it's former glory.
