9/10 Wonderful! (38 reviews)

Check-in/ check-out was easy. Staff were very helpful and sat down with me to discuss suggestions for sightseeing and restaurants in the area…which was helpful. Location was 3 blocks from the train station which brought us directly to Catania airport in an hour. It was about a 10-15 minute walk to the bridge crossing into Ortegia.

We had a wonderful stay! At first we encountered a few hiccups that the staff immediately took care of to make our stay amazing! The spa is INCREDIBLE. It's a little bit of a walk into Ortigia but we loved getting our steps in each day. We highly recommend this place!
