La Foresteria Garden Boutique B&B

The hosts were amazing, couldn't have been more helpful. The breakfast was also fantastic. We also liked the fact that you could sit in the lovely garden.

It is a fair walk from the city centre, although our hosts were very good at offering lifts. There is also a lot of rubbish outside the B& B, which I completely understand is beyond the control of the owners, but does detract from the area.

This place is tucked away in a residential area. From the outside, it doesn't appear to be anything out of the ordinary. The minute one enters the front gate, a little paradise appears. The garden has a lot of variety of flowering plants and fruit bearing trees. Once you enter the house (the owners live there), a tasteful decorated sitting area surrounded with beautiful paintings and displays. The room was large enough with a balcony. The hosts were friendly and genuinely enthusiastic to present the best of Catania. Breakfast was plenty. Fresh fruits, baked Sicilian specials. All wonderful. Highly recommended.

It's so great to go on vacation and stay at one of the nicest B&B.. You feel right at your parents' place. Mirella and Francesco take care of you and consider every little detail. Breakfast is pretty colorful and very appetizing😋 They offer you great tips on places to visit so you can enjoy every moment of your stay until the last minute. The interior is gorgeous and designed with a lot of love. Definitely worth a return visit.❤️

Francesco and Mirella were the perfect hosts - nothing was too much trouble. They rustled up a delicious light supper on my first night, lent me a raincoat and offered to collect me because I hadn’t been well. Breakfast was excellent - a varied choice and delicious coffee. The room was comfortable and charmingly and quirkily decorated. In short, a wonderful stay.

Nothing

This place is a haven of comfort in a busy city. Mirella and her husband work incredibly hard to make guests feel at home and to ensure that their experience of Catania is a positive one. The rooms are well-equipped and the beds are good. The decor everywhere is vibrant and unique in style, bringing a warmth to the whole environment. The outside space is beautifully done, with many plants and fruit trees. Breakfast is outstanding with an exceptional variety of choice and everything very tasty. A kettle and fridge in each room were much appreciated. The taxi service offered from the property is a real boon. The surroundings are definitely urban and it is a 20/25 minute walk into the city, but you can ask for a lift or catch a bus if you don’t fancy going on foot. We very highly recommend La Foresteria as a great place to stay.

Mirella and Francesco were absolutely amazing and they couldn’t have been kinder. The hotel is an oasis of calm in a busy city and the gardens are gorgeous. I was sorry not to be able to have supper there as I can imagine it would’ve been a great experience

It’s a beautiful garden in the center of a busy city. The host couple are lovely, helpful people. They drive you to the old town themselves. They arranged airport transportation for us, which was tricky because we had bicycles. They were most helpful. The room was nice.

It’s in a very remote part of the city so not a good fit for tourists who want to explore the historic old town.

A remarkably colorful and clean enclave in a rather littered Katani. Amazing breakfasts and very helpful hosts. Even though the location on the map may not be encouraging, it is within walking distance of the center; the bus stop is a few dozen meters from the B&B, and once a day, the host offers a lift to the center.

Great stay - suited us very well. For those not familiar with Sicily or Italy in general, pulling up may seem sketchy - but the gate opens to a beautiful courtyard and quiet oasis. The hosts were wonderful, the room was clean and nice - it felt more like staying with family than in some hotel. Always able to part right in front. Would stay again!
