It is to date my favorite traveling experience! this beautiful hotel is historic and central. I had an amazing view with my large, clean room.

We travelled with a one year old baby, (which in italy, especially sicily is like having a passport to excellent service). The hotel arranged a pick up from the airport for a reasonable fixed rate (contact them beforehand, as they have an arrangement with a local firm). The hotel is tucked away in the old town, next to the old... More

Hello. We enjoyed the location of the hotel, it's quite central in Catania to get around. We wish the first person we spoke with at the hotel had given us better directions around. However, the rooms are rather dingy and run down. The shower had mildew everywhere so it wasn't exactly clean. I got the impression the hotel used to... More

So while the hotel itself is perfectly adequate -- nice olde world feel; a good-sized guest room that could have used a fresh coat of paint; fine (and standard for other Italian hotels we've stayed...

The hotel itself is located very close to the heart of the historic centre of the city (central duomo can be reached within 5 mins on foot) and abt 20 mins by car from... More

It had a kitchenette (which I didn't use) and full bathroom. It was very clean and open. Breakfast was typical Italian and had lots... More

We have just returned from a lovely holiday in Siciliy where we stayed for the whole time at the Vetreria residence. It was just perfect for our holiday where we wanted the possibility to stay close to the city center, and this hotel is five minutes walk from the main street; via Etnea. The hotel also collabotated with one of... More
