“We had a really enjoyable stay at the Palazzo and Livio couldn't have been more frienly and helpful.”
The accommodation calls itself a Palazzo and it actually is! It is really well situated in the centre of the city close to the main attractions. It is conveniently close to shops, cafes, restaurants etc as well as the vibrant fish market.

“Beautiful apartment in the heart of Catania”
Beautiful and spacious apartment in historical building, you really feel like staying in a palace! Perfect central location, very close to all main sights. We especially enjoyed a roof terrace with great views to Basilica Cattedrale di Sant'Agata. Livio was super host! Smooth communication, flexible check-in and check out times. Highly recommended!

“A wonderful stay in an ornate and well-located apartment”
This is a beautiful and unique property. We loved the art, the view from the roof terrace, and how spacious the apartment was for the four of us. It feels like a very special place to stay as the hosts are exceptionally welcoming and thoughtful. The location is perfect too - both for seeing sites in Catania itself but also for getting out to places like Taormina, Syracuse and Aci Trezza (it is very close to the buses and taxis and about a 20 minute walk to the train station). It was a joy to stay here, especially because of the little touches like the books about Sicily in the sitting room.

“Feel the palazzo lifestyle of the rich”
It was surreal, its like you enter in a museum, in a bourgeois house / palazzo ❤️ high ceiling 5-6m above you extremely well decorated, check the pictures below. best is that the owner Livio tried to preserved the old style as much as possible, sofas, cupboard, walls, everything is giving you impression you go back in time. Not only that, but it is also very well situated, in the middle of the center of Catania, easy walk to coffee shops and restaurants. The owner was also very responsive and any request we had or advice, Thanks 🙏 PS. may be a small advice, the single beds could have been 1,5 person beds 120-140cm, but this would not change my overall experience 👌🏽

“Catania in style.”
The location is really great. Walking everywhere. We were met on arrival at the appartment which was friendly and helpful. The appartment is an old elegant beauty. Very high decorated ceilings. Beds were comfortable. Room sizes generous. A sweet roof top terrace. The showers work well with hot water. The kitchen is a neat hub. We ate out as so many places on the doorstep. Fresh fruit juice made in the street every morning. The host was very helpful at all times. Eg we needed more blankets (stayed in February) so they delivered within hours.
