Liked: Cleanliness
Great location for visiting Catania however not without its faults. Hosts were pleasant, the room was spacious and clean..however the room had ants crawling all over in the bathroom, there was no safe, no glasses for water or soft drinks, the towels weren’t changed at all on a 4 night stay which I’ve never come across before, the breakfast was basic and you had to be up early enough before it was cleared out by other guests. I was also randomly asked for our key on the last day as it was asserted I wasn’t a guest which was a bit random. Also the buzzer on the intercom doesn’t make a noise so you’ve no idea if you’ve pressed it correctly. Would stay again but with the high scoring reviews expected more. 7/10

Our accommodation exceeded our expectations - the property was in a central location at a charming piazza. The room was spacious, the facilities were modern and the breakfast was enjoyable (fresh eggs and coffee made to order). We wished we had more time to enjoy the place.

This hotel is a gem! The communication was great and check in was very easy. It’s located right next to the city center so we were able to explore and find many restaurants that were very close by! It was clean, modern and comfortable. We had to leave early so didn’t get to enjoy the breakfast, but it looked wonderful!

Our stay at Sciara Larmisi was just right. We arrived for one night at the beginning of our trip and stayed again 2 weeks later before flying out. The location is awesome- right near a bus stop, very walkable to the main piazza as well as awesome restaurants and shops. The hotel itself is really beautiful- very clean and welcoming rooms, the staff are amazing, available, and very accommodating. We loved our breakfast on the terrace overlooking Piazza Cutelli. Additionally, we were 2 women travelling alone and felt very safe and at home in this beautiful hotel. We absolutely recommend this hotel for anyone who is visiting the amazing city of Catania.

Lots of space and friendly helpful people
This was incredible value for money, and a lovely place in a central location. The room was basically a beautifully furnished apartment, with a bedroom, living room and kitchinette with balcony, two bathrooms and a wardrobe. A lot more than we had expected! They'd thought of everything, including an iron, spare blankets, a fan, pots and pans, coffee machine, some free soft drinks and a washing line for laundry drying. Emanuele was very helpful communicating with us in advance to arrange arrival times, and Giuseppe was a great host when we arrived and he showed us around. Wonderful breakfast (with an outdoor terrace for when it's warm). The only slight negative was that the street was a bit noisy - but that's Catania really and if you want to stay somewhere central then of course there will be street noise.

Excellent location for exploring Catania
The welcome to the hotel was warm and especially informative. We found all staff friendly and helpful. Locating the hotel was relatively easy and it is only a 5 minute walk from one of the airport bus stops. Buffet breakfast on the hotel verandah was enjoyable. The room was large enough and the bathroom was clean and well-appointed. It was an easy 6-7 minute walk to the centre of town and scores of restaurants and cafes.
