San Placido Inn

An amazing room with a big nice terrace with a beautiful view. We had booked 3 nights but the first night we were taken to a flat in a poor standard with no discount to the price. Beside that everything worked fine and a super service.

Our first concern,: there is no street sign to identify this business. Lucky the cleaning lady came to let is in. Give us the keys of the room, Pepa was very helpful in providing information for what to explore around. The breakfast was very good. This establishment is well dated, I believe there never had a deep cleaning. Pictures of the bedroom was true, however the advertisement does not show pictures of the bathrooms, there is a good reason, shower stall is no more than 5 SQ feet, I did found difficulty in go in and out. The location was very central and easy access to downtown.

It has taken me some time to get to this review, but I owe my amazing time in Sicily to my amazing host, Peppa! She was hospitable, accommodated me with a great room when mine was not ready yet, suggested local spots, and tried her best to speak English with me. The location is central and easy to navigate to from the Airport-Bus system. The main city train station is not far either and it was so easy to catch to visit more northern and southern parts of Sicily. Again, thank you Peppa and this amazing location! I will definitely come back, God willing!

I had a wonderful 3 night stay. My room was big and comfortable, with a Patio overlooking a square and the sea but the best of the whole stay was Peppa. She made me feel very welcome and taken care of despite being really busy. She gave me tips and recommendations of where to eat and which beach to go and just extremely helpful and kind. The B&B is really well situated. It was wonderful to be able to have breakfast on the terrace overlooking the top of St Agatha church and mount Etna. An absolutely wonderful view! I felt very lucky to have found this place and i have recommended it to friends and family already and when i go back to Catania that's where i'll stay again. Thank you Peppa and all for a wonderful stay.

Chambre lumineuse et propre, accès à une terrasse privée.m et vue sur ka ville et l’Etna. L’hôte fut très accueillante.

The hotel is ideally located to go to the most interesting places in Catania, within walking distance. Restaurants, shops and squares. Behind the duomo. The room was spacious, comfortable, with beautiful and elegant decoration, with a terrace, which has a beautiful view. Delicious and abundant breakfast. The most important thing, the kindness of Pepa, always attentive to the guests, seeking to make them very comfortable. The host, a very kind person too. I recommend the hotel and hope to return. Thank you for hosting me very well.

It's a lovely hotel on the top floor of an old palazzo with roof terraces right next to three important churches in old town Catania, the Duomo the Badia of S. Agata, and S.Placido. My room was spacious with ample storage capacity and a nice terrace overloking the harbor area. The bathroom was fine, including the very Italian necessity of a bidet. The shower stall was quite compact and I had to squeeze tough to get through the corner opening. Breakfasts were great, right to my liking, and were served on another roof terrace by Pepe, the manageresse, who was very helpful during my weeklong stay. The only negative item I can list is that the toilet flushing mechanism has little water pressure and requires patience!

Location is close to the main square. Good breakfast and air-conditioned. A little road noise but the central location means you can’t avoid this. The property is on the top floor and our room had good outside space. Breakfast is outside with view of Etna. I would definitely stay again.

the location of the B&B was perfect for visiting different places. The rooms were clean, and Pepa's customer service was great. She gave good advice on where to go and what to do. We recommend this place to stay when visiting Catania.

Bon emplacement au centre, service agreable, propre dans l'ensemble. Pas possible de profiter de la Terrasse, pas de parasols. Pas de transport pour ce rendre a la plage comme stipulé dans la description de l'hotel. Douche tres étroite pour personne de forte taille.
