Guest Reviews

• Mirja (9/5): Rauhaa puutarhan keskellä - Kauniin puutarhan keskellä vanha romanttinen miljöö. Uima-altaassa plussana poresuuttimet. Majoituksessa ei ole ravintolaa (pelkästään aamupala), ilman autoa ravintolat & kaupat etäällä.

• Bernd (9/5): Schönes Anwesen oberhalb Catania - Antikes, weitläufiges Anwesen mit herrlichem Blick über Catania. Der Weg dorthin, etwas beschwerlich (viele enge Gassen) und nur dank GPS zu finden. Der Empfang war etwas unpersönlich; die zuständige Dame lernten wir erst am letzten Tag kennen. Unser Zimmer war klein mit Zugang zur Terrasse, die Betten angenehm groß, die Matratzen sehr hart - aber dennoch sehr bequem. Vorallem die schönen, dicken Fliesen auf dem Boden und die eleganten in der Dusche haben uns gefallen. Das Zimmer war sehr klein (wir hatten laut Foto ein größeres erwartet), Das Personal war wenig erreichbar und etwas unnahbar im Verhalten. Zu wenig Information. Schöner, altmodischer Frühstückssaal, das Frühstück selber einfaltslos und dürftig. Was ich als "glutenfrei" angeboten bekommen habe, schmeckte nach nichts. Ich habe mir dann selber Brot gekauft. In Ermangelung der Möglichkeit, abends in der Nähe essen gehen zu können (ohne Auto), hätten wir gerne auch mal den schönen Aufenthaltsraum besucht. Der war aber abgeschlossen.
• Kieran (8/5): Beautiful place, let down by a couple fixes - Great architecture, spacious and private land, tidy landscaping. Friendly and helpful staff Lack of meaty protein/savoury options for breakfast, unheated pool (too cold to use below 25C° and lack of amenities in surrounding area, car needed.
• YASAR (10/5): Excellent surprise in Catania - The place is like a movie studio. Beautiful building and excellent, well taken care of landscape. Very comfortable huge rooms with all amenities; wonderful breakfast and great coffee.
• Augusto (9/5): Pace e charm in antico contesto agricolo. - Buona colazione con diverse torte e marmellate di qualità. Bellissimo il palmento ristrutturato ed adibito a sala comune. Tranquillità assoluta nel verde. Da rendere meno rumoroso l'aspiratore del bagno.
• ANGELO (10/5): - Atmosfera Niente
• Genovese (10/5): Un soggiorno autentico in una dimora d’altri tempi - Una location davvero affascinante, caratterizzata da un edificio dell’Ottocento in cui è stata sapientemente conservata l’autenticità, sia negli esterni che negli interni, valorizzati da arredi in perfetta armonia con il contesto. L’esperienza è stata estremamente piacevole: la stanza era ampia, comoda e ben curata, mentre la colazione e il servizio si sono rivelati impeccabili, con un’ottima selezione di prodotti tipici locali. Un soggiorno che consiglio vivamente. Niente
• Francesco (5/5): posto bellissimo e con prezzo valido ma colazione terribile, insufficiente e poco variata. non adatto per vegani e veget - la sistemazione in un vecchio casolare è un meraviglioso giardino. colazione terribile. solo dolci e zero prodotti salati. nessuna scelta per chi segue una alimentazione salutare. ambiente rumoroso e caotico.
• DAMIR (10/5): -
• Antonio (1/5): -
• Nadine (8/5): -
• Jose (8/5): Stijlvol en authentiek - De locatie, bezoek Etna en Taormina. Authentiek sfeervol. De omgeving buiten resort. Geen restaurants in de buurt. Wel een afhaalpizzatent. Straatjes ‘s avonds voelde ook niet echt veilig. (2 vrouwen)
• KIRAT (9/5): -
• Carla (10/5): -
• Veronica (9/5): Da sogno - Torta pere e cioccolato da sogno, atmosfera elegante e rilassata. Villa conservata nel suo stile è ottimamente ristrutturata. Il buon gusto è di casa. La disponizione su più livelli delle varie terrazze offre scorci sia sul mare che sul magnifico giardino ricco di piante. Vista la stagione non abbiamo usufruito della piscina. La doccia aveva alcuni punti dove l intonaco si stava staccando
• Laura (9/5): - Dimora caratteristica e suggestiva con tanto verde e silenzio. Colazione abbondante con molta varietà sia nel dolce che nel salato e abbondante frutta fresca. Personale gentile e disponibile. Secondo me ci vorrebbe un pò più di manutenzione. Per esempio il bagno della mia camera seppur pulito presentava molte incrostazioni calcaree che davano un pò il senso di trasandato. Potrebbe tranquillamente essere una struttura da 10 pieno.
• Tatiana (9/5): - The view from the terrace was amazing. The villa has its charm. It was quiet and welcoming. Ideal for a short stay to forget about everything. The breakfast was mostly sweet (cakes/candies). More variety would be great.
• antonio (8/5): - Très belle bâtisse avec un charme désuet. Dommage que notre chambre (mobilier, salle de bain etc) ai été aussi figée dans le temps avec mobilier ancien et disparate. Déjeuner sans plus et triste. Attention l'hôtel privatise la piscine et ses alentours pour des événements comme mariages etc donc accès très limités si vous voulez profiter des installations promises.
• BEATRICE (8/5): Alentours de Catane - Voyage de 2 jours aux alentours de Catane. Cet hôtel est très agréable extérieurement. Les chambres sont un peu vieillissantes et des travaux de peinture seraient utiles. Néanmoins le séjour a été très agréable car les extérieurs sont vraiment jolis. Petit déjeuner très bien.
• JEAN PAUL (10/5): Fabuleux - Le site est exceptionnel de même que l’accueil !
• ALAIN (10/5): A recommander sans soucis - Excellent accueil par Michele, piscine et jardin magnifiques, chambre tres grande avec belle salle de bain ( juste quelques bruits de rue, mais rien de très gênant..). Petit déjeuner parfait excepté les jus de fruits pas top... Beaucoup de charme....
• Mihai 101 (9/5): Very nice stay at Carubazza. - Nice staff and beautiful location and setting. The view from the garden terrace is amazing. Owners are a little grumpy, but all in all are providing the services as they should be.
• GEORGIOS (7/5): -
• Karine (8/5): - L'emplacement la tranquillité le parc est magnifique La piscine permet un merveilleux moment de détente Des bouteilles d'eau fournies quotidiennement C dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de quoi prendre un verre sur la magnifique terrasse Le petit déjeuner pourrait être un peu plus continental
• Dana (10/5): - great place for couples and families. we enjoyed all the facilities and the beautiful view and service
• Carine (10/5): - Superbe propriété à 15 mins du centre de catane Chambres dans leur jus mais ça fait partie du charme
• Nicole (10/5): -
• Alex (10/5): - Beautiful grounds and friendly staff. Nice room and quiet location. Good views from hotel. Would stay again!
• claude (10/5): un hébergement d'exception - excellent accueil , beaucoup de charme, excellent restaurant à proximité.Un endroit exceptionnel pour visiter Catane et les environs.
• Anastasios (6/5): Pleasant - Very nice property, super beautiful. There are just no amenities at all.
• Lesley (8/5): Hidden gem - A surprisingly beautiful villa with view , very helpful staff A little tired with a little maintenance would make a massive improvement
• Dominique (8/5): Séjour au calme près de Catane - La résidence est située dans des jardins magnifiques sur plusieurs niveaux avec vue dégagée sur Catane. La demeure datant de la fin du 19e siècle a gardé son cachet avec meubles anciens, boiseries, carrelages…. Cependant la salle de bain et certains murs justifieraient quelques travaux. Nous avons apprécié l’accueil et la présence de places de parking suffisantes. Petit déjeuner suffisant dans belle salle donnant sur le jardin avec piscine.
• Sandro (9/5): Superb -
• Dorothee (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely area, great garden and breakfast. Good parking in front of the house.
• guillermo (10/5): - Perfect place
• Anita (8/5): Very good - Beautiful place.
• Atanas (9/5): Superb - Very aristocratic appearance, great garden, pool and unique views of Catania There is no possibility to eat in the hotel in the evening and it is very inconvenient, if the restaurant was open for dinner it would be wonderful
• Conor (10/5): Gorgeous and immaculate hotel with amazing views of Catania and Etna - setting, rooms, atmosphere
• Charmaine (10/5): - An amazing property. The gardens and pool area are beautifully designed and gives you a very peaceful feeling enjoying the nature. The room was clean with plenty of amenities and a comfortable bed. The staff was kind and very helpful. We were given a dinner suggestion that was delicious and not far from the property. Very enjoyable stay and we would return, without question.
• Bill (8/5): Beautiful property. Diamond in the rough. - beautiful property, must of been something to see in it's glory days. little neglected, needs a refresh and better upkeep room and bed... room smelled musky and beds were too hard.
• Joe (9/5): Superb -
• Jil (10/5): Very old castle with original antique furniture amazing Ambiente - The place is amazing. Very old castle with original antique furniture. Very nice pool area and amazing view
• Mr_az (10/5): Exceptional - Marilu and the staff.
• Sannie (10/5): - Det var et smukt og fantastisk sted til at slappe af om dagen, men begge nætter var der en hund der stod og gøede lige ude foran hotellet.
• Jacqueline (9/5): Cozy and beautiful view!! Take a room with a balcony -
• MARINA (8/5): - location magica, come vivere in un piccolo borgo antico in un'oasi verde. Le camere potrebbero essere un pochino più curate
• Gloria (10/5): - It was amazing and i will return! A wonderful place of peace and quiet, in a beautiful setting amazing vegetation, an amazing pool! You almost forget that there is an exiting city to be discovered!
• Jessy (9/5): Superb -

• 안나 (10/5): Incantevole -
• Nunzio (10/5): - Posto incantevole
• Tomás (7/5): Ok price for a nice preserved old house. - We liked the hotel. It is well preserved home. The price ofr money was super ok. Breakfast lacked options and the coffee machine did not work.
• Yuliia (10/5): Exceptional - Incredible place, very beautiful territory with panorama on the city and sea , as well as very beautiful garden. old historical buildings where you feel the history and deep family roots... Rooms have authentic old finishing but it gives you the spirit of the place. All was great !
• Nicholas (10/5): Exceptional -
• Annie (10/5): Beautiful hotel - Lovely staff stunning location and beautiful property
• Sean (10/5): Peacefulness - This property was a perfect place to stay for our first night in Sicily. To wake up in the morning to the quietness and the beautiful gardens was just so lovely. Thanks for having us.
• Elena (8/5): Nice hotel in a quiet area - Very nice hotel in a beautiful and quiet area. With an amazing garden and pool. But the hotel needs renovation works, because the rooms are already quite old. Wonderful staff.
• Celine (9/5): Superb -
• Mariella (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alex (10/5): A beautiful pleasant place . - Wonderful place like an old palace , 15 min from Catania center. Silent place with a wonderful garden and pool Breakfast was just OK , bread and cakes were not fresh . No vegetables served at all
• Calin (10/5): The perfect place when visiting Catania. - I can say that we were truly blessed to find this location. Everything from breakfast to facilities, location, room, were perfect. The staff was lovely, easy safe parking, the pool is great with the amazing views and lovely decoration around the whole property. Just perfect. We arrived late for the checkout and Marilu sent us a video with instructions on how to get in. The free water in the mini fridge in the room were a great extra touch and they added more each day. The room had its own terrace and there are so many flowers around the property, it smells absolutely lovely. 100% recommend to anybody visiting catania as this location blew our minds. Price is very good for what it has to offer and it is placed in a very quiet location just outside catania. Nothing, it was perfect. Would have loved to stay a little bit longer.
• Lucia (10/5): - Luogo suggestivo, molto curato, peccato solo per la polvere probabilmente inevitabile in una location di qiesto tipo
• Martin (8/5): Beautiful rustic property - Beautiful old buildings, very understated, fantastic views, pleasant staff and very good breakfast. Small but very clean pool with loungers and umbrellas. The room was looking a little tired in places, but still pleasant.
• Aleksandar (9/5): Superb -
• Vladimir (9/5): Superb -
• Robert (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful place full of artefacts and history.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Simplesmente perfeita! Local fantástico!
• Kim (9/5): Superb - Calmness Beautiful garden with incredible pool Perfect harmony of plants with their own colors and smells, amazing!! FYI: Restaurants are not that close, so better to use a car than going by foot...
• Maria Paola (10/5): - Titina (the owner) and her son are the best hosts! They gave us great tips for our stay and the rest of the trip around Sicily
• Nanou (10/5): - Lieu charmant aussi beau qu’interessant par son histoire. Accueil impeccable et attentionné. Petit déjeuner bien achalandé et gourmand. Calme et sérénités. Que demander de plus? Je recommande fortement.
• S•b (7/5): Good - Nice property in a histotical building Nice garden Quite location with lots of green Friendly management The property needs attentions and maintenance, it is a bit run down Breakfast could be improved Parking is a bit tricky
• Lars (10/5): Vil gerne genbesøge stedet - Et lille paradis, tæt på Catania. Flotte og velholdte bygninger med en dejlig have. Inventar med sans for de historiske bygninger.
• David (10/5): - An absolutely beautiful place to stay. Completely modern rooms with great ambiance. Pool area is great. The only downside is no staff on site. Need to arrange for staff to be there when you arrive to let you in and explain how it all works. This is problematic, otherwise a wonderful spot.
• Anonymous (10/5): Incredible experience. The staff were friendly and gave great food recommendations near by. The room and property were b - Stunning property with a beautiful pool and parking. The room was large with a private terrace. Breakfast was great and the staff were very friendly.
• Marc (9/5): Superb - One of the standout features of Casa Carrabussa is undoubtedly the exquisite pool. The pool area is a true oasis of relaxation. Sicilian sun, lounging by the poolside, and taking refreshing dips in the crystal-clear water. Not much to improve. The breakfast was good, not excellent.
• Ida (10/5): Exceptional -
• Grazvella (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful, very well kept hotel. Rooms are very spacious, gardens and pool are beautiful.

• Jeremy (10/5): Away from the maddening crowd - Beautiful classy family run property Nice location in hills above Catania Friendly & helpful Very nice continental breakfast with home made pastries and cakes Recommended a nice restaurant in San Gregorio for a memorable dinner. They are building a swimming pool in their magnificent gardens. Off season price was a bargain. Highly recommended.
• Anna (9/5): It's a beautiful hotel in a beautiful location with helpful and nice people working there. - Nice bathrooms, nice common area especially the terrace with a very nice view, very nice staff being helpful with all needs, easy communication The beds are a bit hard. It's not recommended to leave the place walking/without a car. That's good to know in advance.
• Raul (9/5): Relaxing stay at Carrubazza - The garden and facilities of this old noble house are amazing, inviting you to relaxation. The rooms are big and confortable, but needs a renovation. The breakfast is a bit short, with few salad options and there is no gluten free bread and pastries. The breakfast staff did not speak english.
• Daniel (8/5): Very good -
• Francisco (10/5): Amazing place in Catania - The breakfast was amazing. The place is a super beautifil classic house that combinates old and new very pretty Most important Marilù the host was very friendly all the time recommending us the good places to see around Catania Private parking very easy.
