Dome

We spent our last night in Sicily in Catania, and we had a really lovely stay at Dome. Hidden upstairs in an old building right near the centre of town, the rooms have been done up really thoughtfully, with excellent little touches and lots of great space. The service and quality for the price is excellent, and Nicola helped us sort out parking and gave us lots of recommendations to enjoy our one night in town. Definitely recommend this place for a nice stay!

Booked a modern room with duomo view balcony (as shown in photos), but upon arrival was “upgraded” to an old apartment a few blocks away on a sketchy side street with zero views. “Breakfast” was a croissant left outside the door. Very disappointing.

Great location just off the main square and accessing Catania’s amenities and historical sites. Rooms are modern, well equiped and spotless with daily cleaning.

Thank you wonderful Nicola for another fabulous stay at Dome! This was my second stay, this time with a friend, having first visited in July with my husband. It is a sophisticated and delightfully-designed haven in the center of Catania. I will definitely return again and cannot recommend it highly enough. If you want a special b&b-style accommodation in Catania, don't even bother looking elsewhere! They also have suites, I guess for longer stays but i haven't seen them as yet!

Perfect location for exploring the sites of Catania Firstly communication with Nicola is excellent he is very responsive . Secondly the accommodation is first class. Clean, well appointed, comfortable bed with good quality bed linen , a powerful shower and nice thick towels. Considering it is located on the main road leading to the Duomo it is remarkably quiet. Breakfast was pre-ordered from an app and then delivered to the room at the appointed time. Tbh not the best and we didn’t really enjoy it. It’s a pity as it looks like they have a kitchen and dining room. Other negative for some guests is that there is no lift and all rooms are on the 2nd Floor. Would definitely recommend The Dome if you are looking for a comfortable stay in Catania. We stayed in a royal double with balcony.

Fantastic room in a great location - Nicola was very helpful with great suggestions and helping with arrangements

The Dome is conveniently located to Catania Central Square, restaurants and shopping. Also nearby are many of the City’s attraction such as the Duomo of St Agatha, the Fish Market, ancient ruins and other historical attractions. Our room was artistically decorated and comfortable. Nicola was always available to help us with any housekeeping, transportation and any other need that arose. Very professional and very clean.

Dome is in an absolutely fantastic location and our apartment felt very safe and also very quiet considering the central position. Our check in was easy and we were given some fantastic local intel from Nicola when he welcomed us to Done (his annotated map really helped us make the most of our stay!!) The bed was extremely comfortable and the bathroom was spotless and well kitted out. I must say I was too short to reach a lot of the amenities in the kitchen which was quite a downside for me! The small kitchen is also lacking in a few basics like salt and pepper which was a big shame but easily remedied. The chairs in the apartment would definitely also benefit from a cushion, I found them uncomfortable and struggled to sit on them for any length of time which again is a minor issue and didn't detract from the overall quality of the room (which was fantastic). I really cannot stress enough how fantastic the location is, and the café just by the front entrance was also a lovely find. Hugely walkable, just be aware it is up quite a few sets of stairs if you have any mobility issues at all.

This was our last stay in Sicily & first visit to Catania. Stayed at the Dome for two nights with our kids, ages 14 & 11. Nicola who was our contact was fantastic. He was responsive & helpful with all of our needs. Hotel was in a great location & very clean. Would definitely recommend.
