Hotel isn't what it advertises. The breakfast is actually coupon you take up the road somewhere and get a free coffee. Also wifi is only in lobby not in the room like said. Otherwise it's a nice place and the staff are very helpful.

Gamble with rooms
Booked and paid for a family room 6 months in advance! We received a small room without window (small roof window which could not be opened). When we stayed at De Curtis 4 years ago we booked a double room which was cheaper but bigger with a huge terrace and a lovely bathroom. Will not book again with De Curtis.

Nice building, dodgy area
Since we did day trips every day, the location close to stations was good. But, the area is not nice to walk around at night. Hotel was really nice old building, but interior could use a renovation. Its was quiet though, so we had a good sleep. UNlike advertised, we did not have wi/fi in the room, only in the reception area. Receptionist was nice, but didnt speak English. Also toiletries had to be reminded to be given to us. Breakfast was a ticket to a cafe nearby. So basically one pastry and a drink.

nice pictures, but just about that
the neighborhood looks damgerous at first but it is not so actually, I didn't have any bad experience, hookers stnd on the corner though. personel didn't speak english and italian with that terrible southern accent impossible to understand. I had to pay on cash because the machine was broken, great so thats my problem now... I spent 2 nights there and none of them my room was cleaner nor tidied up. the place it is just not nice, I simply recommend you find some other place.

Good enough for 3 stars. Pretty close to airport.
I needed some hotel for one night and close to airport. Additional windows are installed to reduce (successful) the noise from AC. Pretty close to bars, and restaurants.

Close to the rail station
It is around 7 minutes walk from the rail station. Around 10 minutes from the main shopping street and 20 minutes from the main scenery. However, the way to walk back from the main location to hotel is quite dark, not feel so safe, just the feeling, we were fine. The smell in the wash room is not so good. Wifi not available at room, and only available at the receiption which make inconvenience because our room was not at the same floor.

amazing for the price.
rooms are amaizng. had a littel prolem with the the whole not speaking italian thing but got round that using google translate. roooms are absaloutly fantastic huge and really comfy (im 6" 8 so when i say huge i really mean it) people running the place couldnt be nicer and were a great help when ever we needed anything. only real negatives was that we were at the top floor ( 6 flights of stairs) which is a long way up with a big bag. and the breakfast wasnt really up to much either. apart from taht not a bad word to say about the place.

Is it a hotel or a B and B?
It's hard to really rate this place on the scale above. We can tell you we would never stay there again. When we approached by cab, we really thought the cab driver had taken us to the wrong part of town. It wasn't a very nice area. When you enter, you walk into what used to be a stable and it still looks like one. The room was large with a nice double bathroom and a small, dirty balcony. They list themselves one place as a hotel and another as a B & B. If they were a hotel, they needed to make up the bed more than just the 1st night, provide us with more than 1 roll of toilet paper ( I suppose we could have asked for more, but we wanted to see what would happen) & empty the waste basket. If they were a B & B, they needed to provide more than a sticky coffee pot, instant coffee (no cream, sugar, etc) and 2 pre packaged rolls (the 1st day only-never replaced in the 3 days we were there.) We stayed at many hotels and B & B 's on this 28 day trip; this is the only one that is getting a bad review. We rea

Worst hotel ever been to.
Me and My daughter were staying at this hotel for 4 days and we were very disappointed. On the internet it says that thre is a daily buffet breakfast and all we got is plain croissants which were not soft at all and biscuits. We never touched the breakfast and the same things were there for four days.The sheets and the towels were never changed. There is no lift so we had to take up our luggages 3 flight of stairs and then again down. We had to check out at 10.30 in the morning otherwise we had to pay. There was not even a window were you can look out and see the street, only one in the roof which you can put ajar. We will never go there again.

The hotel is located in a poor neighborhood, without any outer sign, 10 minutes walking from the central station of Catania. The hotel do not have any wireless connection nor internet connection but from the front desk. The room was very big and clean. Breakfast includes snacks and instant coffee for self-made at the room. Staff has willing to help, but their English is poor.

Fine for a night
IT's a clean enough, fine enough hotel for a short stay. No english with service but that's to be expected in Sicily. A little hard to find and odd layout within the building but the rooms are fine. Breakfast was pretty lame. Horrible coffee, which in Italy is just plain wrong.

Reasonable price near the center of Catania
Great for families! Room has several beds and a loft area with a bathroom and another bed. Don't be too put off by the initial perception of the neighborhood, it's safer and more central than it originally looks! Staff is friendly. Breakfast is a carb fest with lots of sugary breads (not sure if this is a plus or minus).

insect
I wasn't stay in the room has good refurbish, there have insect and mosquito flying around when you sleep. the room were too dark. the breakfast were ridiculous with packing bread in supermarket, cappuccino was taste milk only. around the hotel area wasn't a good and safe area. every time walk back to hotel from the ground floor main door, you feel like you are in the horror movie the "REC". But only one thing good is the staff are very helpful and friendly.

If you reach Catania and you want a low-cost, but high-class hotel, try De Curtis! You will be a little bit shocked when you'll see the entrance, but inside it has great luxury and very kind employers. Very clean and classy!

Friendly and Lovely!
This B&B was wonderful; the staff were extremely helpful and patient with our limited Italian! They called affordable taxis for us for the airport when we needed them at early/late times. Everything was clean and newly renovated, and the breakfast was amazing with a great view. Broadband ethernet internet was in the rooms! It is kind of difficult to find the building (it is unmarked with signs), but once you get in there, it's a really wonderful place.
