Mercure Catania Excelsior

We had to change rooms 3 times. The two bed room was not ready. They gave use a second room with two beds the door lock was broken so we had to change again. The third room was not set up with towels pillows etc. the rugs in this room were filthy with stains. They were not well vacuumed.

Alt i alt et godt ophold. Personale er service minded. Godt udvalg i morgenmadsbuffet. Beliggenhed central

Very friendly and helpful at front desk

Good luck cation other than that it was very poor

The hotel is a little scruffy from the out side but inside the bar, reception and dinning area its very nice the rooms are well equipped but again a little tired the staff were excellent and very frindly would definitely stay here again and good value for money

Staff failed to provide enough information about parking resulting in us being fined, and then couldn't even assist us to pay the fine which was in Italian (we are Australian) - they outright accepted zero responsibility whatsoever and were extremely unhelpful. Would NEVER stay here again. It was appalling and disgusting behaviour from so called service professionals. Very disappointed.

Stayed 3 nights. Old carpets, old beds but linens were great. Staff is wonderful. Underground parking (15 euro/day) is a hassle. You have to get off your car to push a button and call for the front desk to open the gate. No stairs from the garage to the lobby, only elevator. I had to get something from my car but the elevator was broken. Breakfast is okay.

The room was nice but the air conditioning was not working properly.

Very nice hotel. Friendly staff. Excellent location.

The hotel is pleasant and the staff excellent - I experienced a really high level of service. I had a room overlooking Piazza Giovanni Verga, and I had a wonderful view of Mount Etna in the background. The room was spacious and comfortable with classical furniture. The carpets need to be changed, and the bathroom needs some upgrading, but apart from that everything was great. My only disappointment was with the breakfast. Due to Covid measures, there is no buffet, which is totally understandable, however, I wasn't expecting to be served cold scrambled eggs on a cardboard plate. The cutlery, glasses, etc were (biodegradable) plastic, and when I queried, they said "temporary hygiene measures", but it was very disappointing. Plates and cutlery can be washed at high temperatures. Much better than all this waste. The hotel has a garage where you can park (€15 per day), and the square right in front of it has plenty of parking spaces. Both options are very convenient.
