Ulemper: Rooms shown on the booking.com are completely different from original rooms. It is a hotel with only use of stairs ,lifts are not available and you have to go with the luggage around 2 stories

Fordeler: This is a City Center. Very old house with historical soul. In a room you can find bathroom with the shower. Very nice breakfast.

Ulemper: Nothing :)

Fordeler: We had a great stay. We (family of 4) visited Sicily and stopped in Catania for a few nights. The location is in the city center, close to the big shopping street and to the majority of touristic attractions. The staff was helpful and they did the best they could to offer us a pleasant stay. Big rooms, good breakfast :)

Ulemper: I cannot really find anything bad about this place. I definitely recommend it.

Fordeler: The place was in the middle of the centre.

Ulemper: The location was excellent.

Fordeler: Everything And good service and helpful

Ulemper: The sealing of the windows becouse to much noise from out side from early morning

Fordeler: The location of the property is great! It is situated 2 min away from the famous street with many bars :) Rooms were clean and comfy and breakfast was good. Good value for money!

Ulemper: It was a bit cold and the air-condition was too small to warm up the room. The toilet didn't work properly and you had to know the "trick" in order to flush it.

Fordeler: Beliggenheten er perfekt. De ansatte er veldig vennlige og rommet var velutstyrt og rent. God valuta for pengene.

Fordeler: Great hotel in a very central location. Rooms were very nice and staff was helpful.

Ulemper: There were no tea making facilities in the room (though they were available in the reception area).

Fordeler: Nothing

Ulemper: Nothing worked. Overcharged for a substandard room. Shower did not drain. Outlets did not work. Breakfast was extra. Not a 4 star. Noise from outside woke us up. Rooms on booking.com were the lower floors. Bogus.

Fordeler: Nice Place

Ulemper: Everything

Fordeler: The location is unique, quiet and 100 meters from the main square. The staff is always helpful and nice.

Ulemper: It was visible that the last refit of the rooms was not recent, the air-conditioning was noisy, I have paid for a superior room and I would have expected a better view than a back alley,

Fordeler: God seng, hyggelig personale.

Ulemper: Vindu høyt oppe med utsikt til bakgården. Ingen ryddede bord da vi kom for å spise frokost

Fordeler: Location

Ulemper: Broken lights, broken mini bar, broken sink. Room was run down, staff sullen and unfriendly. No help with broken facilities. A three night stay not long enough for them to get anything done. Staff at breakfast looked suicidal. Not a great experience all round. Only good thing is the location, close to everything in catania.

Fordeler: Location friendly staff

Fordeler: Great location, very friendly staff and good breakkfast.

Ulemper: Our room was 124 an on Monday morning they had a delivery at 6 - 7 am which was very noisy and woke us up. Our friends in the other parts of the hotel did not hear this.

Fordeler: Great location, spacious and clean room, excellent service, very helpful staff. Very good recommendation.

Fordeler: Male front staff service was welcoming and more...

Fordeler: Professional, discreet and what any experienced traveller requires, Bravo!

Ulemper: Personal, hotel tour guide, facilitator for ones movements around Catania: local consultant...social, cultural and business.

Fordeler: The staff was very skilled and able to improvise regarding parking and more. breakfirst fine too.

Fordeler: Beautifully situated in the centre of Cantania with very high standard of rooms

Fordeler: Charmingly decorated, room spacious, staff friendly and helpful, location excellent.

Fordeler: Very friendly staff, helpful and competent. Breakfast rich and good. Position of hotel is good and room was quiet. I am looking forward to spend my time once more in this hotel.

Fordeler: Excellent location, Luigi on the reception desk was exceptionally helpful and even arranged to send on the clothes I'd left to our next hotel in Taormina! We were offered a choice of room and selected a small but well equipped and comfortable room with delightful french windows and balcony. We were on the side of the hotel and this turned out to be quiet. I'd advise you to avoid the front of the hotel at the weekend unless you are going to be out yourself partying late (it's a bit of a gathering place late on in the evening).

Ulemper: The breakfast service was not replenished - we went there half an hour before it closed and it was pretty sparse to say the least, but the coffee and croissants were excellent. It's probably best to get their early. Our bathroom was a little on the snug side which may be a problem for some, but then we did have a choice of larger rooms had we wanted them.

Fordeler: Central location, friendly staff, great room.

Fordeler: Very friendly staff. Room excellent. Breakfast not too impressive - but italians don't do breakfast like brits.. Location fine for catania sightseeing etc.

Ulemper: No. It was good and we would stay again. Really liked the place.

Fordeler: Good central location with highly efficient and professional staff.

Ulemper: A few problems re noise from nearby bars on the Saturday night!

Fordeler: Location, room space

Ulemper: Some small renovation works should be carried on in the rooms to bring the hotel to the next level (I.e. painting)

Fordeler: location

Ulemper: the hotel is almost run down. It desperately needs to be renovated

Fordeler: At the breakfast time you can get free glass of cava. Kept our luggages free of charge because of the late flight Staff while complaining putted some efforts to fix it Felt safe even the homeless people were sleeping almost by the door of the entrance of it

Ulemper: I have booked the room with the mountain Etna view and a balcony. I have payed more money just to have exactly that room for the very special occasion. They have upgraded me for the suit, but it was just a room with the ugly street view, just a bigger than regular. If I would have a chance and I would just cancel it. Beds were absolutely uncomfortable and the wallpapers were falling apart. Room carpets seems were cleaned properly long time ago and I started having dust allergy (I have small asthma). I am not even talking about dusty curtains. Reception - absoltely useless. When we have asked for the nice beach close by we were guided to some black sand beach with big waves, which is 15 min away. We have walked around 2 hours searching, but the ones around were just rocks or just kinda sandish with a fresh fish seller and come cats around. After making a pit stop at the coffee place and checking google we figured out that the nice one is 25 min drive from where we were. If you ever decide to stay in here just know that reception doesn't know much or doesn't really care. Breakfast for the value of money was absolutely dissapointing as for example coffee of one of our days was finished (more than 1 hour before the breakfast has been finished) as some other things. The staff was just relaxing and having their breakfast just by the side of the guests. Not a good selection of vegetables, just 4 kinds - two types of low quality letuce, worse ever seen tomatoes in Catania and something more what I don't remember. Even boiled eggs were not fresh!!! A bit of fruit, some juice, wafles and so on. No avena flakes, just kellogs style stuff. Looks good from far away. Would highly recomend places for food around the hotel. You will be surprised how good it is comparing to what you are getting in a hotel. Shower in a room was barelly alive as no water preasure and it takes some time to regulate it, sink was clogged.

Fordeler: The hotel is in a good location and our room was big, if a bit dated, with a fabulous view of Mount Etna. The levels of cleanliness were high, all the staff were friendly, the breakfasts offered a plentiful choice and the bar area was comfortable and welcoming. We were presented with tasty little canapés with our drinks and the two dinners we ate there were cooked perfectly.

Ulemper: The hotel is in need of some refurbishment. The dinner menu offered the same choices each evening.

Fordeler: Spacious room, bathroom comfortable, breakfast good, all staff very helpful. Great Location and car parking and guest pick up access was very convenient. The overall hotel building was quite grand however,generally needs restoration throughout.

Ulemper: Carpet and furniture throughout was very dated and threadbare. Elevators not safe, due to door closure not sensitive to obstruction either by a person or object. Room/Door was squeaky, Light fittings were loose and coming away from the walls. Again, the building is quite grand and is in dire need of updating to it's former glory.

Fordeler: Staff at reception, bar, dining room extremely friendly n helpful. In my last night,standing outside the hotel I was bothered by a drunk,and the receptionist immediately came to help.very appreciated

Ulemper: Delays in cleaning the room

Ulemper: I don't recommend this hotel. There is no parking, poor breakfast and horrible staff. BE CAREFUL: They will try to charge your credit card if you take a bigger room with more beds. I've booked one double room and they gave me a double room with two beds. I didn't use the second bed but they tried to charge my card with 20 €. I have visited many hotels in the world, but this is the first one which charged me for a bed and not for the room!

Fordeler: The staff is friendly, the rooms are clean. I would whole-heartedly recommend the Hotel Etnea 316 to anyone thinking of visiting Carania. Also, take the guided tour that Marco does, it was terrific.

Ulemper: The shower is small. Like barely large enough to be usable small. However, this is Europe, and it's to be expected.

Fordeler: Staff, location and especially room size and decor are great.

Ulemper: Depends on the room probably, but my one was looking at a road. Unfortunately Sicilian drivers do not mind using horns at any time at night or morning and there is no sound isolation at all.

Fordeler: It was clean.

Ulemper: It seemed more like a big guest house taken care by two men but still ok. Breakfast was very light but ok for us. The the worst thing that happened was ,coming back from our last day excursion at 5pm hoping for a nice shower and a good rest for our last night stay to find them painting in our room! ,a ladder in the middle,buckets of paint and curtains on the floor a total chaos! with our personal belongings still there didn't know what to do.There was a terrible smell of paint !! I suffer from asthma and it made my husband panic as he knows how bad it can be for me,the man who was at the reception desk was telling him to keep calm took the ladder out of the room and left us there in that disaster.!! We were not even offered another room

Fordeler: We’ve spent a very nice time at this hotel very charming and authentic. The hotel manager was incredibly nice and welcoming and provided us very good advices.

Ulemper: Everything Was perfect

Fordeler: The entire stay (14 days) was one of the most friendly and relaxing holidys that I have experienced. Apart from the excellent hoteI, I can thoroughly recommennd Catania specifically & Sicily in general for a break of any duration.

Ulemper: Not applicable. I simply had a load of fun & sun during my winter break.
