Disappointing!

3.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed Oct 6, 2018
Only received housekeeping services two out of the three day stay. Hidden parking charges for non valet service and for as expensive as our dinner was waiter never asked if we wanted to be served bread!Nice room but I just don't think it provided services I expected.

Best location in Catania!
Breakfast was good, the gym is basically equipped and the staff was friendly and helpful.
We stayed in the hotel twice and the second time got upgraded to the suite.

Strongly recommend having breakfast on the rooftop at least once. Requires additional payment but the view is breathtaking.

Room tip: Definitely the breakfast on the hotel roof!

The room was a superior double but tiny with shower in the bath and no facility to make a drink tea or coffee plus a very limited mini fridge bar.
Superior room had terrible view over roof tops
Roof terrace is very small and not impressive at all
Would never return if in this area

Room tip: Rooms poor Stay in a different hotel UNA Palace not good value !!

Dear Mr. Tony2802,
thank you very much for your feedback. We read with great interest the reviews of our guests because they help us to monitor the quality of our services and above all, to improve.

We are sorry you did not like the room that you booked with internal views and of approx. 24 SQM , where the kettle is not part of that room type facility, but of course, we would bring it expressively for you , if we were informed. Besides, please be also advised that other higher room categories, such as Executives and Suites, are already provided with coffee/tea maker facilities. We are surprised that you didn't particularly like the stunning Etna and Baroque city views from our Etnea Roof terrace, which is usually admired for it and we apologize if your quick night stay was not so superb as for most of our guests.

We will stay directly at your disposal at any time and we really hope to welcome you back as our appreciated guest why not, for a longer stay too, where you can change your mind,

Yours sincerely,
Rita Monfrini

I booked this hotel since I had an early morning flight out of Catania. I wish I had booked 2 or 3 nights here. It was in an amazing location. The front desk staff was warm welcoming and made check in a breeze! And the views from Etna roof were unimaginable as well as the food and services! The best part was I was upgraded from a classic room to Suite upon check-in which made my last night of my 18 day Italian vacation truly unparalleled!

Stayed here for two nights in September 2018. As others have said, the hotel's got two big selling points.

1. The location - on Catania's main shopping street with everything within walking distance - is ideal.
2. The roof bar - relaxing sofas and great views of Etna over the rooftops of Catania.

We were upgraded from a standard room to a duplex suite which was a nice surprise. The breakfast and service in general were good.

The location in City Center was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere. The staff was so helpful and accommodating and friendly. Our room was large and very comfortable and clean. The breakfast was outstanding.
