Wonderful hotel in the very centre of Catania. Breakfast is terrific (with fresh orange juice). There is a Michelin restaurant at the hotel. Location is very convenient, it's only a short walk to the main attractions. Reception staff speak perfect English and are very helpful with itineraries, direction and so on. Catania tip - do not use the city taxi.... More

For a 4 star property, this hotel is perfectly adequate. The location is central within Catania, however the address shown on the hotel website and booking confirmation was incorrect causing our GPS to take to the wrong place - not good at night in an unfamiliar city. However, once we found the hotel, checking in was done efficiently. Free car... More

We didnt find Catania to be a very clean or interesting town, but had to stay there for a stop-over for 2 nights as our flights were in and out of Catania ariport. Stepping into the hotel was like stepping into an oasis, airconditioning, friendly smiling staff . The rooms were spotless and tidy, and room service very efficient. The... More

Very nice staff, always a smile on their faces, cosy and warm room, with a balcony. Good choice of food at breakfast, freshly squeezed orange juice was a nice touch. Free parking, free minibar, what more could you wish ! More

I felt in love with this hotel from the first sight! Great staff, cozy interiors, plants and flowers, spotless, spacious and functional rooms. In addition, the breakfast was just incredible - fresh bread, fruit, pastries, coffee, etc. The location of the hotel is also very convenient. I've spent 7 nights in Katane Palace and would be happy to prolong my... More

I was extremely impressed with the soundproofing of the windows, since although it's a fairly busy street outside, I could hear virtually no traffic noise with the windows closed. I've encountered my share of hotels on busy streets where the traffic noise comes right through, so this is a big plus in my book. The hotel itself is grand, with... More

Stayed two nights at Katane Palace with our Jolly Sicily Tour. The hotel is down a very narrow street so the porters had to make several trips from the bus to deliver the luggage. Entrance is majestic in that although the hotel is old, the surroundings are decorating in beautiful wood and regal French baroque furnishings. Our room was gorgeous;... More

Catania itself is a wonderful city, but a little shabby - so don't be put off when you see the street the hotel is on, it's not a dodgy part of town. In fact, it's very near the main shopping streets. Staff could not be more helpful, they have a garage and valet parking (parking is a problem in Catania).... More

We arrived in the pouring rain which didn't help the impression of the place, which is situated in a none too pretty residential side street. The hotel lobby is pleasant, but the rooms are in need of a refurbishment as they seem very dated. The staff weren't very helpful; the buffet breakfast wasn't replenished, the capuccinos they made for us... More
