Some streets just get you where you need to go, while others force you to stop and explore! Via Crociferi is one example. Linger a while at this hot spot with locals and other tourists.

This public thoroughfare is one of the top free attractions in Catania City Centre. If you're in the mood to explore beyond Via Crociferi, we can also recommend Catania Cathedral, Ursino Castle and Palazzo Biscari.

8.4/10 Very Good! (467 reviews)

The hotel was just OK. Pretty dated and not sure if it was damaged because of the storm or they were just doing it up but wasn't great. Pancrazio was really nice in the bar but only really breakfast served in terms of food. Not an issue as we wanted to eat out but dont expect much in the way of food at hotel. Overall the hotel was just ok, paying mostly for the location which to be fair is very good as long as your mobile. Please don't book if you cant make it up and down the very steep hill from the road to the hotel entrance. Fine for us but I can see how people could struggle.

9/10 Wonderful! (144 reviews)

The property is great. Located near Mt Etna and wine country. The rooms are very nice and the restaurant is exceptional including all of the restaurant staff. If I had one observation to improve it would be the attentiveness of the front desk staff. They are not always available and do not always respond ti email.
