Reviews
We booked a Prestige Double Room with View. That evening, our room never dropped below 24.3°C (76°F). The hotel controls the A/C centrally and said rooms aren’t allowed to cool below 22°C—which would’ve been fine, if ours had actually reached that. Despite calls at 6:30 and 7 PM, and an in-person request at 8 PM, nothing was done. At 10:30 PM, I brought someone to the room—they tried adjusting it both in-room and from the lobby, with no success. We were finally moved at 11 PM.
The next morning, we were told our room didn’t include rooftop breakfast, despite what we were told at check-in. When I verified that it was included on our booking confirmation, they eventually let us stay—but made it feel like they were doing us a favor.
The low point came when the hotel offered to waive the €22 parking fee—but only if we signed a confidentiality waiver. That felt less like an apology and more like an attempt to suppress honest feedback. We declined.
They did adjust my booking at no cost when I mistakenly selected the wrong date—and that’s the reason this is 3 stars instead of fewer.
This wasn’t a terrible hotel—but it was inconsistent, overly controlled, and indifferent when it mattered most. We won’t be returning.
We saw a sign for the rooftop bar on the street and got curios. The hotel reception staff were very helpful and showed us the way up. What an amazing place we had discovered! A truly beautiful terrace with the most amazing views over the city and mountains Etna in the background. It was lunchtime and not very busy which suited us. The staff were very friendly and efficient. The drinks were great and we had some snacks also. Would definitely recommend to go there!
The room itself was spacious, thoughtfully equipped with all necessary amenities, and maintained to the highest standards of cleanliness throughout our stay. The breakfast offered was of very good quality, with a satisfying selection to start the day.
Overall, this experience far exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend it without hesitation.
Catania’s a vibrant place and this hotel really enhanced our trip.

Great views great location fantastic rooftop restaurant with bar both indoor an outdoor seating, which was terrific becauseit was quite chilly for a couple of nights I stayed there
