Il Gattopardo House

Everything!! The host Gaetano greeted us like family. The room was spacious with all facilities as described on the website. The breakfast every day was fresh and served with a smile. Also the breakfast room was amazing with a lot of character. Gaetano always made sure we had everything. He was attentive and very friendly. He made us feel very welcome and after staying 10 days we didn't want to leave. The location was perfect regardless if you wanted to just visit Catania only or other towns as the bus stops or train station were within walking distance. We had a view for Etna and street Etnea where we could observe Sycylian street life. The whole stay was very pleasant and we wanted to thank all the staff in Gattopardo House.

Gapardo House is simply a wonderful hotel, located in a perfect position, right in the center, where you have everything nearby to explore. The hotel is exceptionally clean and offers spacious and comfortable rooms. One of the highlights is the rich breakfast, with a wide variety of options from all kinds of foods. The tranquility inside is remarkable, thanks to the triple-glazed windows that block out all outside noise, ensuring a restful sleep on the soft and comfortable mattresses. Furthermore, the hospitality of Giovani was outstanding, welcoming us warmly and kindly. Definitely book this hotel, and you will be very satisfied!

The location is ACE. Seriously, I can see few better. You’re literally off the heart of Via Etna and yet the street is quiet. I had a room with an outside bathroom. Both were immaculately clean. Good water pressure for the shower and hot water anytime. Hair dryer provided too. Honestly the walk from my room to the bathroom is not that big a deal and I knew it was separate going in. The bed was SO comfortable! Not too hard nor too soft. Pillows also very good, in that vein of being perfectly medium. There’s an extra duvet in the roomy closet as the floor tiles are cold. You can put heating on though: there’s an AC unit with directions for best and cold. I didn’t turn it on so I don’t know how well it heats. Desk in the room to work as well if you wish. The room fridge is benefit and the host kindly offers gratis a cooled bottle of water and a soda in there. Definitely comfortable for solo traveler or a couple for a few nights. Wifi was overall great for uploading photos and videos on social but a bit iffy with video calls. Absolutely gorgeous salon/parlour!

It was in an excellent location, just off Via Etna which connects you to the historics sights, shopping and restaurants yet quiet. The rooms are in a heritage building, yet have all the modern conveniences. The room was large with a broad luggage rack, a spacious closet, fridge, a clean comfortable bathroom, kettle etc.

Excellent location for pleasant, safe/secure walking to sites, exceptional staff, the BEST wifi & reading, extra HOT showers, tasty coffee machine conveniently located for guests. Very comfy mattress, nice bedding, furnishings. Thoughtful manager showed location (2 blocks away) of Alibus 4 Euro very convenient bus to Catania airport.
