Enjoyable, liked central location, good breakfast.
Pros:

Good choice of items at breakfast, replenished quickly, if required. Staff were helpful, friendly and answered any queries we had. Although room looked out into the square it was not noisy. Lovely view over the rooftops.

Cons:

Bathroom in the room was tired, particularly the shower, could do with an update.

Our stay was made truly memorable by the outstanding hospitality of the staff!
Pros:

What I liked most about our stay was the incredible hospitality provided by the hotel staff. Everyone was welcoming and exceptionally accommodating.
A special note of gratitude goes to Giuseppe, who immediately addressed a concern we brought to his attention. We also thoroughly enjoyed our mornings thanks to the breakfast host, Stefanie, who was consistently warm, hospitable, and attentive. Excellent service truly made our trip memorable!

Pros:

Ho soggiornato più volte in questo hotel in un palazzo storico in posizione centralissima. Stanze pulitissime, possibilità di prenotare il posto auto interno, che vista la zona è una grande comodità, personale gentilissimo e disponibile. Colazione, varia e di ottima qualità, in terrazza. Una menzione speciale a Stefania, che in sala colazione ha sempre un sorriso e una bella parola per tutti.

Cons:

La stanza in cui ho soggiornato ha solo due prese, in posizione molto scomoda (lontane dal comodino).

Per il prezzo pagato potete fare di più
Pros:

la cortesia della cameriera Stefania addetta alle colazioni e la freschezza dei prodotti proposti.Alla Reception rimarcabile la cortesiia di Jessica e Giuseppe

Cons:

i piccioni che infestavano il terrazzo durante la colazione, l'impatto negativo dell'ingresso all'hotel che sembra una entrata di servizio.Il letto aveva un topper di materiale "impermeabile" ma che non traspirava

En dehors d'un petit incident, hôtel parfait
Pros:

Accueî 24h/24.
Très bien situé au cœur de Catane
Garage

Cons:

Le retrait bancaire a été effectué sans accord du client sur le montant de la facture. Cette facture ne prenait pas en compte une modification dans la réservation. La responsable a proposé une compensation convenable pour le trop payé.

Pros:

מיקום נהדר, צוות שירותי, ארוחת בוקר טובה

Cons:

רמת ניקיון נמוכה מאוד ולא מתאימה למלון. האמבטיה הייתה מלאה בעובש והיה לא מעט אבק בחדר.
בלילה הראשון קיבלנו חדר שפנה לכביש ראשי, בניגוד להזמנה שעשינו של חדר שאמור להיות לחצר פנימית. הרעש היה בלתי נסבל לאורך כל הלילה. בבוקר שהתלוננו הועברנו לחדר אחר שהיה שקט מאוד, אבל כאמור מלא עובש במקלחת.

Lacklustre
Pros:

Good location and friendly staff, however …

Cons:

Desperately needs a refurb. Bathroom was shabby, the superior room noisy, the bedding flimsy with a little synthetic blanket that kept slipping off. I’m surprised about the positive comments. Breakfast was almost depressing apart from the coffee. I would not recommend this hotel.

カターニャを十分満足。
Pros:

街の中心部にあり、レストランに徒歩で行けた。また、スタッフが大変親切、親身になって旅行スケジュールの相談に乗ってもらった。朝食もおいしくスタッフもフレンドリー

Cons:

せっかく、世界遺産　Palazzo Manganelliの中にあるホテルなのに、外壁に落書きがあるのは残念。
