The best available hotels & places to stay near Catania

August 7, 2022 Rosalyn Ihle

Catania has been a prize of many empires over the centuries, from Greeks to Romans to Arabs to Normans to Spaniards (to name a few). But its citizens have a more dangerous enemy right in their backyard—Mount Etna, Europe's largest and most active volcano, which destroyed the city with earthquakes and lava flows in 1693. Look closely at the baroque buildings dating from after the eruption—you'll notice a creative use of lava.

Great hotel for our 3 day trip. Staff were very helpful and gave us some good recommendations for places for dinner. Room was a good size, well presented and we had a sea view with a balcony. Breakfast was very nice. On the first night we enjoyed a drink in the roof top bar and on the second night we dined at the roof top restaurant. The food was very good, the staff were very informative and helpful when navigating the menu which was in Italian and advised what i could have while pregnant.

Hotel liberty is in a residential area some 5 to 10 minutes away by foot from the largest Plaza in Catania. We stayed one night. We found our hotel room to be clean, quiet, and the amenities were of nice quality. The continental breakfast consisted of fresh fruits and juice, an assortment of breads, and other breakfast food. We found them all to be of good quality. You may also get specialty coffees such as a cappuccino. The food was delicious. Our interactions were very good with all the staffers. A shout out to Valentina who arranged a self guided walking tour and an excellent seafood restaurant. The website pictures are accurate.

The hotel is centrally located with rooms that are big, modern and clean. Breakfast was very good too, varied with sweet and savoury options. The owners are helpful in every way from the day I wanted to book till the end of our stay. We were a big group, thus it was not easy to accommodate all of us but they made sure our requests were honoured. Thanks ...we will be back!

Very nice hotel, desk staff were very helpful. Location is great, lots of food options nearby. Nice area for walking around. Do not like the continuous tinkling of piano music in the public areas. View of Etna from the balcony was unexpected and fabulous.

The great experience

Reviewed By Dusan S

The most amazing and helpful staff we’ve ever met. While the hotel isn’t at the prime location, the amenities, cleanliness, and the service offered by the staff were superb. The way they handled our issue with the rent a car agency exceeded our expectations. They are truly devoted to the customer experience to which they delivered at each front. We will be back.

The friendliest hotel I’ve ever visited

Reviewed By 252jills

This place is something special when it comes to customer service and experience. I can’t say enough good things about this hotel. Arguably the friendliest staff I’ve /ever/ encountered when traveling through Europe. Breakfast was amazing and delicious. On my final day, I left very early for the airport and they not only helped secure a taxi, they also set up breakfast early so I could get food before leaving. If I ever find myself in Catania again, I’m 100% staying here.
