Hotel berhampiran 2a S.r.l., Catania

Ho soggiornato un weekend a Palazzo Sangiorgio e ho trascorso dei giorni fantastici. Avevamo prenotato una camera superior e ci è stato fatto un upgrade a una camera deluxe. La camera era molto pulita, ben arredata, confortevole e con una doccia grande. Al nostro arrivo ci hanno anche offerto un drink di benvenuto. Abbiamo cenato nel ristorante dell'hotel e per chi ama il pistacchio consiglio vivamente i loro gnocchi di patate dolci con crema di pistacchio, pancetta e stracciatella.... davvero buoni. L'atmosfera è accogliente e il personale è attento e professionale, assicurando un servizio impeccabile. Sarà la mia struttura di riferimento per un mio prossimo soggiorno a Catania, lo consiglio vivamente.

Très bon accueil, nous sommes arrivés bien avant l'heure du check-in mais nous avons pu laisser nos bagages qui ont été montés ensuite dans notre chambre. Le réceptionniste, très gentil et aimable, nous a donné un plan de Catane et nous a donné de bons conseils pour nous promener et pour les restaurants. Nous sommes allés déjeuner et nous sommes revenus ensuite. La chambre était très grande et très bien aménagée, la literie excellente et la salle de bain très belle et agréable. L'hôtel a une décoration design tout en gardant la majesté de l'ancien palais. Nous avons très bien dormi car la rue est relativement calme et il y a un très bon double vitrage. Le petit déjeuner est très copieux, servi sous forme de buffet dans une salle agréable. Nous avons apprécié d'avoir, entre autres, des fruits frais. A notre départ, nous avons pu laisser nos bagages à l'hôtel pour nous promener tranquillement dans Catane, notre avion étant en soirée. Le réceptionniste nous a appelé un taxi pour l'aéroport. Nous sommes ravis de notre séjour dans l'hôtel Romano House et nous recommandons fortement cet hôtel qui est d'un excellent rapport qualité/ prix.

The picture that appears when searching for this hotel is deceiving because the hotel is not on a big piazza and is not the building shown. The hotel is not on a particularly busy street (this is good), at least not on the weekend that we were there, and it is in a good location to see the main sites in Catania. We had a lovely room, which looked like it was recently updated and modernized. One glitch - I am 5'2” and my feet didn't touch the floor when sitting in the lavatory! There is a good selection of breakfast items, and I particularly recommend what I think was a pistachio cake with frosting of some type (it was delicious!). The hotel staff was friendly and welcoming. My extended family had some laughs trying to figure out how to open the elevator door from the inside. If you are American, you may want to ask the desk staff before getting in it or risk feeling very dumb! The hotel is about 10 minutes from the airport, which is convenient for an early flight.

First of of all I want to thank Vincenzo and Claudia C at the reception. They are a very good asset for the hotel, always very prompt to help with excellent service always with a smile. Our room was very clean, I thank Giusi, at the first floor of the hotel ,she really does her job very well with attention to detail, most of the times you rarely find even in 5 star hotels,she is an other asset. The hotel is very comfortable, good position, very clean and has great safe private and secure parking. Definitely will revisit when in Sicily.

The hotel is easily accesible from bus central station. You can tell it is an old villa and you feel like you are in a fairytale with the ambienbe and the decor. Great breakfast with both inside and outside options. Disliked · The room is quite smelly, especially the bathroom. The air condition filters need cleaning. They should wash the bed spread which smelled awful and change matress and pillows.

One of the best service in all my life! I was in an emergency in the middle of the night, I called more than 10 hotel/b&b in Catania and NOONE accepted my reservation ( hotel 4 star too and so on ). At 03.30 a.m. I found this place and Mr Domenico was so kind to give me a room for the night so I could rest for few hours before my flight. If he didn't help me I would have slept in my car close to the airport. Bad experience with an HAPPY ending thanks to him. I Recommend 100%! Uno dei migliori servizi in tutta la mia vita! Ero in emergenza nel cuore della notte, ho chiamato più di 10 hotel/b&b a Catania e NESSUNO ha accettato la mia prenotazione (anche hotel 4 stelle e così via). Alle 03:30 ho trovato questo posto e il signor Domenico è stato così gentile da darmi una stanza per la notte in modo che potessi riposarmi qualche ora prima del mio volo. Se non mi avesse aiutato avrei dormito in macchina vicino all'aeroporto. Brutta esperienza con un lieto fine grazie a lui. Consiglio al 100%!

Nous avons passé une très bonne nuit dans cet hôtel, la chambre est belle, spacieuse et bien insonorisée. Le petit déjeuner est copieux. Seul petit hic, l’emplacement du parking pas facile à comprendre.

- Breakfast for Italy was oookay - Far away from the center, a city bus comes once in hour, which in terms of Sicily - never. But okay. - The hotel is on the sea side, but it does not have a beach [one should use a public beach 10-15 minutes away] - In my room, in the bathroom every morning I had water coming from the ceiling from the higher floor. Told at reception. They did not solve it for a few days before i left. - air conditioning was super noisy I had to stop it before going sleep - the swimming pool was open from 9-19hh, thus leaving for a work duty around 8 and coming back around 7,the pool was not useful for me - The hotel is used to rent its own restaurant next to the pool to different events, so, especially on weekends there is loud music until super late. The reception was not able to stop the music then I asked around 1 am.... this is strange - they let some external people to party loudly till late at the expense of their guests

What I liked: - The hotel boasts two lovely pools. - The on-site restaurant serves some of the best food I've had in the area, though it is pricey. - Breakfast is simple yet delicious, featuring eggs, frankfurts, bacon, cheese, pastries, fruit, juices, and wonderful coffee. - You are allowed to enjoy drinks by the pool. - 90% of the staff were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. - Free parking is available on site. What I disliked: - The room's air conditioning was not adjustable and only blew in one direction, making both the bathroom and bedroom uncomfortably warm. - I had to sleep on the pullout sofa as the bedroom was too hot. Thankfully, the sofa was available; otherwise, I don't know what I would have done. - The spa seemed expensive for a hot tub and sauna, so I didn't use it and can't comment on its quality. - There is an incredible rooftop with views of the bay and Mt. Etna that goes unused, which feels like a wasted space. - The location is very remote, situated in a residential area with nothing within walking distance except for two restaurants and a golf club affiliated with the hotel. - While you can walk to the bay, there are no pathways and the return trip is steep and uphill. - The hotel provides taxis, but they are quite costly. - There is an extra charge to use the kitchenette, which was not communicated beforehand. Additionally, no tea or coffee replacements were provided, which is unusual for a hotel of this caliber. **Tips:** - If you are checking in past 10:30 PM, be sure to call the hotel to ensure someone will be available to check you in. - Renting a car is essential for getting around, as without one, your travel options will be limited and expensive. - This hotel is perfect if you want to relax by the pool and do occasional excursions. However, if you're looking for more activities, you may find the location too remote.
