“This family-run hotel occupies an 18th-century building, placing guests in the heart of Catania near the vibrant market and metro. While some rooms show their age, the central location on Via Etnea, with views of Mount Etna, is a definite draw. I think it's a solid option for travelers who prioritize location and a family-friendly environment.”
