Area immediately around property isn’t much, but the hotel is centrally located to be walkable to nearby sights, shopping, and restaurants. Hotel is pretty dated, so rooms are not modern. Steam room is/was down during my stay. Staff was amazing, very helpful. Overall, decent stay.

Great location and excellent staff. Hotel rooms were nice but were obviously ageing, peeling paint and poor quality shower heads. That being said, was still worth staying for a day or so, but would be difficult to stay here for days on end. Otherwise a great experience.

If you want a good location above quality of property this is the one for you. Otherwise, it’s like stepping into the 70s. Tired, worn, in places dirty - bath doesn’t drain when having a shower. Staff refused to let us have two additional pillows, only allowing us one to supplement the thin single pillow given each. Definitely no service with a smile either - but that’s Catania generally
