Hotels Near Piazza Universita in Catania

Good centrally located rooms and the airport bus stops right across the road. All of Catania's attractions are within walking distance. The room (a triple) was spacious, clean and well-decorated. Breakfast was more than adequate with a selection of savoury and sweet options. Fresh coffee is made to order. Do not let the external entrance put you off -:once inside it is a modern and comfortable place to stay.

I cannot say enough good about this hotel. Everything was super clean and just perfect. The ”blackout” shutters on the window were perfect to keep out the heat, which this summer was intense. Anderson, the concierge, was amazing, incredibly knowledgeable, and speaks English as well as Italian. Breakfast was wonderful . We spent 6 days here, and took day trips to other nearby cities. The location was perfect, access to busses just across the street. Hoping to return soon!

Very welcoming and well located! The very kind owners, always careful to please their guests. The room is spacious and very clean, the breakfast rich and varied with fruit, sichokes, yogurt, cakes and biscuits. I highly recommend it

The hotel is perfect for enjoying the sea and is very comfortable in the centre. The structure is new and very clean. The price quality was excellent. The rooms are well furnished and with the refrigerator. Also very recommended for a varied and abundant breakfast. The staff, all young, is innocent. The windows of the first floor are very small. I liked it and I hope I'll be back soon.

- Breakfast for Italy was oookay - Far away from the center, a city bus comes once in hour, which in terms of Sicily - never. But okay. - The hotel is on the sea side, but it does not have a beach [one should use a public beach 10-15 minutes away] - In my room, in the bathroom every morning I had water coming from the ceiling from the higher floor. Told at reception. They did not solve it for a few days before i left. - air conditioning was super noisy I had to stop it before going sleep - the swimming pool was open from 9-19hh, thus leaving for a work duty around 8 and coming back around 7,the pool was not useful for me - The hotel is used to rent its own restaurant next to the pool to different events, so, especially on weekends there is loud music until super late. The reception was not able to stop the music then I asked around 1 am.... this is strange - they let some external people to party loudly till late at the expense of their guests

First of of all I want to thank Vincenzo and Claudia C at the reception. They are a very good asset for the hotel, always very prompt to help with excellent service always with a smile. Our room was very clean, I thank Giusi, at the first floor of the hotel ,she really does her job very well with attention to detail, most of the times you rarely find even in 5 star hotels,she is an other asset. The hotel is very comfortable, good position, very clean and has great safe private and secure parking. Definitely will revisit when in Sicily.

Hotel 4 stelle??? Non credo! Sembra un grande hotel invece ho avuto una bruttissima esperienza. Solo la vista mare è carina. Camera sporca. Capelli a terra. Stanza piena di zanzare. Cuscini scomodi. Dicono di avere Sky ma non è vero. Alla spa non ti permettono di prenotare. Accedono solo gli esterni. Cassaforte non funzionante. Colazione non più di cornetti e uova insomma una grande delusione

What I liked: - The hotel boasts two lovely pools. - The on-site restaurant serves some of the best food I've had in the area, though it is pricey. - Breakfast is simple yet delicious, featuring eggs, frankfurts, bacon, cheese, pastries, fruit, juices, and wonderful coffee. - You are allowed to enjoy drinks by the pool. - 90% of the staff were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. - Free parking is available on site. What I disliked: - The room's air conditioning was not adjustable and only blew in one direction, making both the bathroom and bedroom uncomfortably warm. - I had to sleep on the pullout sofa as the bedroom was too hot. Thankfully, the sofa was available; otherwise, I don't know what I would have done. - The spa seemed expensive for a hot tub and sauna, so I didn't use it and can't comment on its quality. - There is an incredible rooftop with views of the bay and Mt. Etna that goes unused, which feels like a wasted space. - The location is very remote, situated in a residential area with nothing within walking distance except for two restaurants and a golf club affiliated with the hotel. - While you can walk to the bay, there are no pathways and the return trip is steep and uphill. - The hotel provides taxis, but they are quite costly. - There is an extra charge to use the kitchenette, which was not communicated beforehand. Additionally, no tea or coffee replacements were provided, which is unusual for a hotel of this caliber. **Tips:** - If you are checking in past 10:30 PM, be sure to call the hotel to ensure someone will be available to check you in. - Renting a car is essential for getting around, as without one, your travel options will be limited and expensive. - This hotel is perfect if you want to relax by the pool and do occasional excursions. However, if you're looking for more activities, you may find the location too remote.
