This B&B is in a modern apartment in the centre of Catania hosted by Antonio and Anna. The room was big, clean and quiet. Breakfast was as much as you wanted and laid out at the breakfast table in the couple's home. The hosts have a lovely big modern apartment and are very helpful, accommodating and friendly. Recommended to anyone... More

B&B Faro is exactly the kind of place which makes staying in a B&B so attractive. Anna gives you a welcoming feeling and makes you feel at ease as amongst old friends. Thereby the rooms ( and their private house) are designed with a lot of taste! Faro is right in the centre of wonderful Catania and at walking distance... More

Let me start off by saying that Antonio and Anna are both wonderful and welcoming people. They will both do whatever they can to ensure your stay is enjoyable. Based on our stay, here are some of the Pro's and Con's we encountered. Pro's: 1. Location is very good to the sites in town. 2. The room is very spacious... More

After two fabulous weeks in Sicily this past fall, we needed a bed for the night to catch an early flight out of Catania. Old Catania ca be chaotic and stressful to navigate. Calm set in once we reached Faro and Anna made us feel welcome and personally directed us to the drop off of our rental car. Faro is... More

The room would cost a fortune in a New York boutique hotel. Spacious, elegant, comfortable, airconditioned. The breakfast is much more cosy, but also excellent. The prorietors, Antonio and Anna very welcoming. And it's a great place to explore Catania - very central. Delightful and well worth the money.

I selected this B&B based on Tripadvisor reviews and I'm glad I did! The location is excellent... right in the downtown near many restaurants, bars, and shops. It was also possible to walk to interbus station and train station. We used the bus to go to Siracusa and the train for Giardini Naxos/Taormina. Although there were only 2 of us,... More

I have just returned from Catania, Sicily where I stayed at B&B Faro. Both Antonio and Anna were very friendly and hospitable. The place was very clean and well equipped for your holiday to discover the city of Catania and the towns around. Surely, it is in an excellent location – just 1 minute walk to Etnea street, the main... More

The service was amazing, the owner is a Painter, so the B&B is all decorated with his paintings. He was very nice with us and also, gave us some tips about Catania. The breakfast was so nice and delicious! Always with great music. The room was always cleaned and the rooms are very nice and well decorated. The location is... More

A B&B that is ideally situated in the middle of the old town centre of Catania. We got also useful suggestions... ranging from eateries one should visit (lovely food at the “Wine Bar” just 20m down the road) to beautiful places once can visit in Catania. The rooms are spacious with a lot of art and paintings from the host... More
