• Tadas (9/5): - Perfect location with plenty of food options nearby. Well-themed, interesting interior. Great for a couples’ getaway for a few days. As there are some restaurants and bars nearby, it can be a bit noisy until around midnight, but it wasn’t a problem for me.
• Zeynep Merve (8/5): memnun kaldik - Kahvalti fisi ile bolgenin en meshur cafesinde kahvalti yapma imkanimiz oldu, secenekler boldu. Isletme sahibinin cana yakinligi ve cevre ile ilgili vermis oldugu bilgiler, restoranlar kafeeler ve alisveris noktalari bize cok yardimci oldu. Resmen bir rehber gibiydi.
• KabaliSenchem (9/5): Great property that located in the heart of the city centre! - The accommodation location is top notch, located in the city centre and below there are plenty of restaurants and bars. The room is also quite distinct, featuring lovely artwork and ornaments. Also, the balcony with excellent view. The host provided us via WhatsApp proper instruction how to get into the accommodation. The room had extremely weak wifi; we experienced a terrible connection the whole time! The restroom lacked cleanliness, there was a significant amount of dust, and the breakfast is served in the restaurant, where we sensed that the staff was not very attentive since we received our meals with a coupon.
• Sabrina (10/5): Super Zimmer am wohl schönsten Platz in ganz Catania - es war einfach perfekt! Das Zimmer und die Lage waren super! Wir haben uns wie zuhause gefühlt. Es war sauber & alles super gemütlich. Die Gastgeberin war klasse und hat uns super Tipps für unseren Aufenthalt gegeben.
• Katherine (9/5): - The location was superb with a variety of excellent restaurants and bars close by. The room felt very traditional with a balcony overlooking the square. The air con unit was very efficient, and the coffee machine was a nice touch. It can get a little loud outside with music playing and people talking but this tended to stop before midnight.
• Angela (9/5): Sehr gerne wieder da ist nah an alle Sehenswürdigkeiten ist. - Das Zimmer war zwar klein aber süß und das Bett war sehr bequem. Würde trotzdem gerne wieder dahin, da auch diese Stadt sehr lebendig ist und schön. Was auch noch sehr gut war, dass es zwei Bademäntel gab. In der Dusche hätte etwas besser sauber gemacht werden sollen. Die Tür und die Fugen müssten gründlich gereinigt werden. Etwas laut, weil unten drei Restaurants sind die bis Mitternacht geöffnet sind, aber was soll’s, das ist Sizilien. ❤️
• Sebastian (9/5): Friendly, artsy, clean - Beautiful room at a lovely square full of unique art. Even though the host wasn’t there to welcome us in person, the communication was very friendly and efficient via WhatsApp. Breakfast was offered via vouchers at nearby cafes.
• Kate (10/5): - Loved our stay here! Our host Michela was lovely to deal with, super accomodating, communicative and gave us great recommendations, we would highly recommend!
• Lisa (10/5): Schön restaurierte & authentische Unterkunft in top Lage - Top Lage, tolle Umgebung & Restaurants! Sehr netter Gastgeber ! Viel Liebe zum Detail und sehr schön restauriert!
• Caterina (8/5): The apartment was clean and Michela was very helpful with suggestions. - The room was comfortable and very central to the centre of Catania. Every time we used the bathroom the pipes made a loud noise and there was unnecessary clutter, which made the apartment look messy.
• Antonia (10/5): ⭐️ 5/5 - I had a wonderful stay in Catania at Sicialinista. The host Michela was very welcoming, responsive, and made sure we had a pleasant staying. I especially appreciated the local tips and recommendations. The place was clean, comfortable, and very well-located, nearby are a bunch of restaurants and bars. Highly recommend staying here! Nothing to add here.
• Sandra (10/5): Lovely place to stay in Catania - Kambarys yra visiškai senamiesty, labai autentiškas, daug nuostabių interjero detalių, puikiai reprezentuojančių Siciliją. Mielam balkonėly su staliuku ir kėdėmis smagu išgerti kavos (buvo kavos aparatas ir kapsulių), vaizdas į aikštę, kurioje kavinės. Kambary buvo net ir chalatai! 🙂 Mimi labai svetinga, pasidalino patarimais, kur pavalgyti/išgerti, ką aplankyti, kur rasti vietinių rankdarbių, pasilikti lagaminus ir t.t. Mielai sugrįžčiau ir rekomenduočiau šią vietą 🙂 Žmonėms, pratusiems miegoti tyloje, gali būti sunku dėl gyvybingos aikštės, kurioje veiksmas vyksta ilgai 🙃
• Steve (10/5): - Great location. Very stylish, comfortable accommodation. Live music in square Friday and Saturday nights which finished by 11pm.
• Tereza (10/5): - Very well designed room. Near to the city center with lots of good restaurants around.

• Kerry (9/5): Great atmosphere and gave us a great experience of Italy - The location was great, we had a hire car and parked close by in public parking and they were great (additional cost). Close to many many restaurants and sites to see. At night (Fri/sat) there was live music in piazza’ and we could sit and listen on our small balcony which was awesome. Parking was just a little bit inconvenient, however didn’t stop us from loving our time there.
• Martins (9/5): Superb -
• C (9/5): Fabulous Stay - We really enjoyed our stay. Great location on Piazza Scammacca. Room is styled with charming antiques and has a rustic feel - ornate ceiling and Juliet-style balcony. Perfect room for a couple wanting to be out exploring Catania.

The hotel's location is ideal, right in the middle of the city center and many of Catania's top attractions. It was so convenient to explore the area on foot, and we appreciated the helpful recommendations from Michela on where to eat and what to see. Overall, our experience was exceptional, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Catania!
• Julie (8/5): Excellent! - Such a beautiful and clean room! So comfortable!!! Perfect location for sight seeing and access to airport. Excellent service from owners!!! Exactly as described. Can hear sounds from traffic/workers outside early morning if a late riser.
• David (10/5): Exceptional apartment in perfect location. - Fabulous room full of gorgeous art and a beautiful ceiling. Although it's an old building, the facilities were modern - bathroom, air-conditioning, coffee machine etc. Provided water, coffee and tea - and little biscuits! Perfect location metres from the Duomo. Lovely view of the little square with its excellent pizza restaurant. Communication with the host was excellent and they went out of their way to accommodate my difficult arrival and departure times. Truly exceptional. The wifi was a little weak.
• Gai (5/5): Owner was pleasant the room was lovely. - The room was pleasant the owner was lovely. Noise from a local bar until early hours of the morning

• Andrei (10/5): Excellent -Central location - Very clean The communication with the owner was easy. Nice architecture of the apartment Comfortable bed Central location, close to fish market and tourist attractions 15 min walking from the train station Amazing food Noise of the restaurants and bars in front of the building until midnight
• Alexandra (10/5): Tidy apartment very close to the city center - Very clean and nice apartment near to the city center with view over Piazza Scamacca. Everything was very tidy in the apartment as the details were very good taken care of and had also a very special design. We could observe that Marco & Micaela were investing their time and satisfaction in creating a cozy and comfy place for their guests. Two very nice hosts, full of good vibes. In the day of arrival they’ve waited for us and showed us everything we needed to know about the apartment. Also we received a lot of recommendations from good restaurants (one directly downstairs- Catania Social Club- to pharmacy, markets, night life and party locations. Overall a 10/10 experience and we will definitely choose the apartment again next time when visiting Catania. A bit noisy by the night as it situated in the city center but that’s not a thing that can be changed by the hosts. So this is not a negative point towards the apartment or the hosts.

• Marius (10/5): Exceptional -
• Luckyluchy (10/5): Beautifully, tastefully designed room. - Eclectic, thoughtfully designed room with views to the square. Something out of the ordinary. Highly recommended.
• Anais. (10/5): Most artsy & comfy stay in the heart of Catania - Such attention to details! Very artsy apartment full of pieces of art, like a piece of an old altar, puppets from Antica Bottega del Puparo (a place where we didn't manage to go, but it didn't matter as we had the puppets right in our room!♥️), many art and cultural magazines and books about Sicily, Sicilian wines, culture, etc. Plus such an excellent customer care: apart from a full pack towels, we had a pair of super cozy bathrobes, and the toiletries were the best we had in an accommodation, natural and very nice smelling. Beautiful apartment in a beautiful old historical building! Super nice recommendations from our lovely hosts. Plus, our host scheduled a taxi ride for us for going to the airport, as it only costed 22 EUR, if you call yourself using googled numbers, they tax you more as a tourist. Perfect location right in the center of the center. Many thanks to our lovely hosts! As it's located right in the city center, in Piazza Scammacca where there are some clubs, it can get quite noisy at night. Plus the room gets pretty hot, but you have air conditioner. So if you don't mind, you can close the windows and turn the air conditioner on, which should solve the problem. :)
• Marta (10/5): Apartment with a view! Perfect for sightseeing:) - - Very good location - next to the all the important things and sightseeing attractions - exceptional ambience of the apartment - clean and beautifully designed - room had a balcony which was definitely an additional benefit - our host (greeting Michela!) was extremely helpful, friendly and kind - showed us directions to every place and even shared some food recommendations with us - free breakfast was sth very nice :) pro tip: if you’re looking for cheap and safe parking lot nearby (almost impossible to find a place on the street within white lines) I highly recommend this parking Struzo AMTS - 6€ per 24hrs Everything was spotless!
• Flavia (10/5): Excellent stay, great room, beautiful view and top hosts! - The room is very beautiful, the view is nice, and its right in the center of Catania. It has easy access to everything that you might need. Marco and Michela are great hosts and wonderful people, welcoming, helpful, and kind. Their creativity shows most in little things they done in the room, like leaving museum-like stamps next to art pieces so you learn about the objects in the room, adding magazines, and books for inspiration. They also sent us information not only about Catania, but nearby places that we told them that we wanted to visit. It was one of the best stays for us and an overall great experience! There’s nothing to say here.
• Susan (10/5): Responsive host, beautiful building in central Catania. - Stately apartment located in a gorgeous historic building central to everything in Catania. Well-decorated with a lot of care for details and COMFORTABLE--insanely nice bed. Host provided so many extras (nescafe coffee, robe, umbrella, delicious little biscotti!) and was fast and responsive with any issues. We loved watching people passing through the little piazza in front. It was quite busy and noisy on Saturday night but we loved it--noise died down at a reasonable hour (there are nice French doors AND host provides earplugs) and it was great to have a glass of wine on the balcony and watch the square. Perfect for a 2-4 night stay. Thank you!!
• Narine (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anonymous (8/5): Very good - The host is absolutely attentive and kind. She took the time to explain the best sightseeings in Catania and also sent a list with good recommendations of where to eat or what to visit. The room was decorated with a lot of attention to detail and it has a beautiful ceiling and balcony. The place is absolutely central, right next to the cathedral, which makes it walking distance of almost every major sightseeing. Because of being central, it is quite noisy during the night, but it is probably the price to pay for such location. The flush in the toilet makes a lot of noise, what can be a bit annoying during the night. The breakfast is not at the property, it is in a cafe in the central square. The cafe it self has some quality food, but you can only choose one item and just from sweets and just one drink, were you also just have a few options. Or at least this was what it was told in the cafe.
• Maura (9/5): Superb -
• Sarah (10/5): Great stay - Great accommodation in Catania’s historic centre. Clean and tastefully decorated. Friendly host. Would definitely stay again. Thank you 😊
• Bartholomew (10/5): We really need to stay here again and we most certainly will do so ! - This is a Superb beautiful and tastefully decorated traditional Italian balcony private suite in an extremely central location. You feel a sense of absolute privacy and yet on leaving the premises you find yourself immediately in the location where everybody wants to be. What is there not to like about this beautiful property Amazing !
• Annapietraszewska (10/5): Perfect! - Great location, very close to duomo and other atractions. Beautiful room, with lot of nice things in it like magazines, map of Catania etc. There was a very high quality tea for us with few tastes to choose and glasses for wine. Bed very comfortable, we had perfect sleep. Additionally bathroom was very comfortable and nice looking. Big bottle of shampoo and body wash, additionaly the soap. Breakfast in piazza del Duomo, in nice caffeteria with excellent view and wide range of food to choose 😍 Really love it!!!❤ The only minus is the noise whenever you use water in the bathroom
• Gabriella (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was just perfect! In the center of Catania, close to the main attractions. Very clean room and nice host!
• Benjamin (10/5): Exceptional - Rooms were fully air-conditioned, very clean and comfortable. Very helpful hosts and good value for money. Couldn't ask for a better place to stay.
• Luc (9/5): Superb -
• Balint (10/5): best place to stay in Catania! the host is very friendly, the place is nice and clean and 2 minutes from the main square -
• Kim (10/5): The property made our stay in Catania extremely enjoyable with all the facilities you may need for a short stay - The room & facilities are presented imaginatively with great attention to detail All good
