Al Duomo inn B&B

Easy to find and local street parking although you might have to hunt for it. B+B in centre of everything and owners Max and his sister were great hosts. He speaks excellent English. Catania is well worth a visit. Breakfast in B+B excellent on the Saturday but on the Sunday we were given a voucher by the cleaner for a coffee and croissant at a local café. A disappointing surprise.

This B&B is only a few minutes walk away from a main bus station, and the entrance to Catania’s central square. One needs to advise the owner of arrival time and there is a door bell with speaker. The host lives nearby and arrives quickly. We had a comfortable front room - street noise was reduced by double French windows to a small balcony. The B&B is on the first floor of an old building and has a small reception area and breakfast room. Breakfast is very generous and is served at the guests’ chosen time by cheerful woman. Max, the owner, is a friendly and helpful person who provides tourist advice and will arrange airport transfers. We recommend this as a good choice for international visitors. The fish and fruit market is nearby and tourist sites are within walking distance. Buses to other towns and the airport are only minutes away, as is the main shopping street and restaurants.

Great host, met us and helped us with directions and parking. They provided a lovely breakfast and even packed up additional items for us as we were leaving early the next day.

It was good for everything will go back

Lovely accommodation and very friendly staff. Location perfect.
