3-Star Hotels in Catania

An absolutely beautiful stay in a wonderful place. My room was incredibly modern, had steps built into the furniture to a private balcony area, was incredibly clean and comfortable and I was really well looked after throughout. It was affordable, and one of the best places I've stayed. The passion for the local area really shone through from the moment I arrived, with a map on the front desk and friendly knowledgable service throughout.  It's not far from the main central area of Catania, and on a single road from the centre (more or less), so very easy to find your way from and to. There are shops nearby for water and snacks too. At breakfast, I was looked after and had a range of toast (which was prepared for me to order), pastries, yoghurt,  coffee and juice.  I feel very privileged to have found it and would have no hesitation going back or recommending. Outstanding.

Very convenient location: a quiet street, 15 min walk from the central station. A large local street market (not the fishy one, so no smells) opens every early morning just a few quarters away. My flat was spacious and very clean. No problems with facilities, the kitchen is very appropriately equipped. For longer stays, you will probably miss a washing machine. Also, there are no real wardrobes, so I had to put all on open shelves. This can be inconvenient for longer stays too. The communication with the hosts goes via WhatsApp: fast , friendly and adequate.

Papali was on the first floor of a very old building, so expect to walk up a few steps with your luggage, because there's no elevator ... But, the Signore who welcomed us was very friendly and even went downstairs - while I already could go into our room - to help my husband find a parking spot on the street nearby. We had a very good night in a simple, but super clean and quite big room, comfy bed as well ... Bathroom was nice and clean with plenty of towels ... The first picture I took in the morning after our night at Papali out from the balcony, the second was taken in the morning when we had our breakfast served kindly in the little dining area ... Btw, Papali is located wonderfully - it's an easy walk to all the main sightseeing spots of Catania! I added some pictures of our evening walk ... Summary: Papali is a great choice locationwise and if you do not want to spend too much, but still want to have a cozy night at a simple but friendly and nice place.

I recently stayed in this newly opened hotel and was excited around. The Interior Design is modern and tasteful – you note that there has been a lot of value for details. The room was excellently equipped: a Nespresso machine, a small refrigerator, safe, pleasant quiet air conditioning and a great rain shower. Specially to highlight the quiet location is ideal for relaxing sleep. The hotel is small and charming, all rooms are on one floor. The entrance is on the ground floor, the reception is not occupied around the clock, but thanks to the room card you have access at any time. The staff was very friendly – a special thank you to Martina, who made my stay even more beautiful with her tips. Breakfast is not offered in the hotel, but there are many good possibilities in the direct surroundings. Conclude: A stylish, quiet hotel with a well-being atmosphere – I'm happy to come back!

The building’s exterior is rustic and shows its age, but the room inside was clean, bright, and pleasantly modern. High ceilings, ample natural light, and comfortable furnishings made the stay enjoyable. The room was well-equipped with air conditioning, a mini-fridge, and a small workspace. Overall, a comfortable and updated interior within a historic building. Guests who value interior comfort and don’t mind an older façade.

Everything is top-notch. The rooms are new and everything is in excellent condition. The staff is very friendly. The only issue that might be annoying for a visitor is that the room is very noisy, meaning you can hear very clearly if your neighbor is watching TV or having a conversation, for example. This can be annoying under certain circumstances. But apart from that, everything is actually perfectly fine. There's a market in front of the hotel every day from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. – it's worth being aware of that. This means that between 6 a.m. and 1 p.m., no cars can drive or park there, and everything is closed off. Fortunately, there's a large parking garage right next to the hotel where you can park your car 24/7. It's secure and the parking garage costs €12 per night (as of July 2025). Conclusion: If you're looking for a solid, minimalist, and simple hotel room in a good location and at a fair price, this is the place for you.👍

Хорошее место, если остановится на несколько дней в Катании, цена соответствует качеству. Могут быть трудности с заселением, заранее обсудите все нюансы с хозяином, поскольку я не смог сразу же попасть в подъезд и получил инструкции по заселению в последний момент уже на месте. Чисто, все работает, но хотелось бы больше услуг. Например, гладильная доска и холодильник в комнате не помешали бы. Минимум посуды и чайник были бы очень кстати. В районе есть неплохие места для перекуса и кофе, а также возможность добраться до общественного пляжа пешком, но немного далековато от центра. Хороший балкон, но, к сожалению, мне достался номер, откуда не было видно Этну, которой я так хотел любоваться с балкона. Уборка каждый день.

The room is good. Although old, it is very clean. The built-in facilities have also been updated. Hot water is fast and the water pressure is very high. The worst is actually Trip.com ! Book 480rmb online, not contributo di soggiorno, pay all breakfast and CDS at the front desk of the store for 54 euros. Awesome Trip.com !

I will definitely go back. Practically on the sea. The beautiful beach a few meters from the bungalow. Excellent cleaning. Friendly and pleasant staff. Large green spaces. Restaurant and tobacconist. Nearby there are restaurants, bars and a Lidl reachable in a few minutes by car. Bus stop for Catania center right at the entrance of the structure. Airport 5 minutes away.

Camları açamamak kötüydü..basit bir sineklikle çözülebilirdi..klimaya ihtiyacımız olmadı ama olsaydı kumandası yoktu..kahvaltı ortalamaydı..konumu mükemmeldi o yüzden tüm eksikleri görmemek en iyisi..tekrar gelsem burada kalırım.Olumsuz yorumlara baksaydık bu güzel oteli secmezdik..
