Hotel Centrale Europa

Catania City Center Catania|0.11km from University of Catania
The website clearly doesn’t reflect reality. This is NOT a place we would ever enter willingly again. The rooms are nothing like advertised .From the reception where we were handed a room key and an air conditioner remote ( yes - and don’t ask me why the remote is not left in the room with the air conditioner!) through the narrow steep stairs ( there is no lift) and corridors that smelt of stale food, to what was touted as a room for 4 people with mini bar and balcony, things only declined. The room was awful. And that is putting it kindly. Green walls with a weird “ damp effect” that makes it look like the walls are peeling, dirty looking green bedcovers and matching curtains and furniture that looks battered and grey. The sheets at least seemed clean but one of the bedcovers had a hole it it - a cigarette burn. An awful bathroom where the flush didn’t work and you had to put your hand INTO the flush by lifting the cover and putting your hand into the mechanism to manually lift the lever...No fridge, no balcony - instead a window that overlooked a fire escape with a view of a red bucket and a a broom... Can it get worse? Yes, because the rooms stank of cigarette smoke.....and don’t start me on the lighting - dull and grey. An utterly depressing miserable room.... We spent 15 minutes in the room, got onto the Internet ( and I have to say the WiFi seemed to work well) and booked a fabulous set of clean,, joyful COVID compliant rooms exactly a 4 minute walk away. And left. We paid 84 euros ( yes you get what you pay for) for spending 15 min in this place and the pleasure of knowing we will never return. So unless you are someone who just needs a place to sleep, don’t worry too much about sanitized spaces, couldn’t be bothered about a loo that doesn’t works and don’t mind cigarette burns on your bedcovers and the smell of stale cigarettes, this place may not work for you.....And don’t ever go with kids. Mine are pretty hardy and have travelled around the globe - but this place got them depressed in minutes. Escape was a joy.

I really wanted to enjoy this hotel/bed & breakfast but I cannot recommend to anyone. I've waited a week before writing this review - I booked through ******* who funnily enough won't let me write a review...is it because there are known problems I only stayed 1 night out of 3 without any goodwill refund! There was no welcome checkin ust call a number and send over your passport info in exchange for a pass code to gain entry - very impersonal - also told to leave tourist taxes money on the side in my room (not likely as no receipt!) The place is clean but it's also very dark the room has ensuite but the step is double the normal (building regulations) height which is dangerous for anyone well or afflicted in anyway there was Breakfast food in the room but only coffee and water to drink no tea! There is a TV which dominates the room but worst of all the bed faces the door so your feet point outwards to the door VERY BAD sleeping position and finally the door handle came away in my hand on arrival prior to even entering the room! BUT this was fixed before bedtime. I cannot recommend this place to anyone - I expect the owner who had other matters to tend with instead of welcoming guestswas happy to meet me on my departure but reluctant to refund the remaining two days stay which is understandable as it was booked through ******* whom I do not trust anymore as they don't vet their properties so whats the point! There needs to be someone to welcome guests -there needs to be light in the place to make it welcoming and the bed position needs to be reviewed and most importantly the step to the ensuite is danpgerously high. I wish I didn't have to say all this but its true. I see that previous reviewers of this place have endured the owner wrath in response - but I'd like to say take the reviews as an opportunity to learn and improve the property not as a personal attack.
Liodoro Catania B&B
4.4/510 Reviews
Catania City Center
CAUTION. Unrecognizable from photos. Summary: very unpleasant experience - we literally ran away. First, it is located in a bad neighborhood of Catania, which is very dirty and shabby. There was nobody on site to welcome us, but piece by piece, we received silly instructions to enter the building via WhatsApp, requiring us to check our phone every other minute. The building was very old and shabby (see pictures), had a gigantic container of construction rubble in front (see pictures) and the staircase to the second floor was dirty and disgusting. Room Lavica (which they call a “standard double” room) was a shabby, old, poorly lit room, with poorly working air conditioning. Immediately, we noticed a horrible stain on a pillow (see pictures). When we asked to change the pillow - everything via WhatsApp - we were told that somebody would come to change it. They did come at one point and put another pillow in a common room on a table. Again, nobody was available to talk to. The light was very dim and flickering the whole time. The window opened a view on the shabby courtyard with horrible dirty pipes. One could literally hear everything the other person does in the bathroom, because the windows of bathroom and living room are adjacent and positively do not close. There were ants in the bathroom, which was shabby and old as well. The mattress was completely creaky and the whole bed was making noises. There were multiple smudges on the wall, and the frame of the door to the room was not properly fixed to the wall, so you can see the corridor outside (see pictures). It is likely not secure. In the room, the floor was dirty (dusty and dirty footprints - see pictures). Upon complaining, we received angry communications, trying to invalidate our very horrible experiences. For Catania, where 77 euros is a lot of money, the room was incredibly pricey and for that money one can get a beautiful room with high hygienic standards. Finally, there was no breakfast available on site, and everything they provide is a card for a business that they subcontract the breakfast to. I want to repeat that the photos on “booking” are highly deceptive, portraying an instagrammed version of this very old, dirty, and literally disgusting place. In the end, we decided to get another hotel in the city. I advise everyone not to repeat our mistake.
B&B Gisira

B & B Gisira was a fantastic place to stay for our family of 7, in December 2023. We stayed for 6 nights, wish we could have stayed longer. The host was great, anything we needed she’d help us out. We were close to everything, shops, cafes, fish market, attractions and bus stop. We had a triple room and my brother had the quad, the rooms were spacious enough and we also had a balcony, which was great. Loved having the shops right on our doorstep. Highly recommend B&B Gisira.

Duomo Suites & Spa
4.3/581 Reviews
Catania City Center
The hotel is great, the most central part of Catania, in the middle of the church and Elephant Square, but very quiet and private. The whole hotel has a good smell of aroma, simple but not simple, the bed is very comfortable, sleepless every day. The staff is very good, the English is OK, there are a lot of delicious people around, they will also give you advice. There are homemade toiletries, carefully crafted with Sicilian fruit, great. There is a private spa room on the first floor, you have to book in advance, the technique is very good ~ cost-effective. The room is very spacious, Italy has lived the largest room, hahaha
Il Principe Hotel Catania

Because the hotel I wanted to book was not booked, I chose this one blindly on the day. The room can watch the sunrise, and it is romantic. The breakfast was good and full! The only drawback is that some parts of the facilities in the room are loose, so troublesome hotel repairs are perfect!
