We had a great stay recently at this hotel, and would reccommend it to many people. One thing that bothered me was that the queen sized bed was really 2 twins. It might not seem like a big deal, but when youre trying to get your groove on, and you have a bit of a gap right in the middle.... More

Catania is less hyped than many parts of Sicily. But as the authors of The Blue Guide note that is probably one of its strengths. So discover the city for yourself but if you want somewhere really central to stay, where they will park your car for you (whist you recover from your 'driving into a big Sicilian city' experience)...

We stayed 5 nights here. This hotel is 'tucked away' on a quiet street but within minutes of the main square, Bellini Villa and Via Etnea, the main shopping street. It is a 15 min drive to the airport and a 5 min drive to the main bus and train depot. Our room was spacious and well-appointed. The breakfast was... More

If you want to be IN the historical centre, but not have to worry about parking the car: Il principe is the best choice. When you reach the hotel, your car is taken over by the staff, who park it for you and take care of all luggage. The room was comfortable and spacious. In the evening there was some... More

Everything you'd want to see in Catania is within 5 minutes walk of this hotel. Our room was comfortable and quiet (at least from Monday to Thursday - so we can't comment on the street music and noise reported over the weekend in previous reports). Good breakfast and friendly English speaking staff. Free and strong Wifi. Parking is E15 per... More

We spent five nights here for our visit to Sicily. The hotel is smart and stylish and our Confort rooms were comfortable, clean and well looked after. Our room on the second floor had a high ceiling which made it seem bigger. The hotel is in a central location so access to the main squares and places to visit is... More

We spent two nights here at the start of our visit to Sicily and liked it so much that we came back for another night at the end. The hotel is smart and stylish and our executive rooms were spacious and comfortable, breakfast is good too. The central location is really important for a short stay and we really enjoyed... More

After 3 weeks in Sicily and hotels of various qualities this was a great way to end the Sicilian adventure. Il Principe Hotel is in a very central location and I was delighted with my room. It was quiet, which is a luxury in Sicily, yet was only minutes to the centre of the action. The staff were delightful and... More

I stayed in this hotel as part of a tour of Sicily. When I arrived in the bar, prior to a tour briefing, no staff were on duty. When a barman arrived, he then had to open the till, get change and restock some of the drinks needed for the evening. Subsequently, the service was slow. It was as if... More
