The location is perfect, just 5 min from Duomo square and other sightseeing points. The have their own small parking, very convenient. The hotel itself is very interesting. The room was very spacious and beds were comfortable. We liked the breakfast on the roof overseeing the port and Catania. Staff was helpfull and very nice to us. All in all it was worth staying in this hotel. It was a nice addition to our experience in Catania.

The only thing why I would not give 10 points is the noise. We heard disco music coming from the nearby street both nights we stayed. Though we handled this successfully with the earplugs :) Also note, that there are quite some steps to make to get up to the hotel and there is no elevator. But for us it was not a problem.

Really nice and accommadating staff

There was a lot of sound from streetlife

Staff , especially a ladies preparing breakfast are is so kind , helpful ! Breakfast , typically Italian. Plenty of food and fruits. I love this hotel and miss this place. Huge rooms with terrace and awesome view on streets from small balcony. CLEAN , no remarks. Fast internet.

I have no remarks to the facility and stuff. This is just information for these people which considering to visit this hotel. As everyone knows South Italy is a bit different from super restored clean north Italian cities. Catania on first sight may not look super. Buildings here are a bit rusty. Hotel entrance is in back street through big gateway with intercom. Hotel has rooms on top floors plus access to roof platform. All in typical Catania style. Do not expect sterile SPA resort.

The room we got was really spacious, very clean with good AC and small french balcony. Everything was just as it supposed to be. It is an old style hotel in an old building - but! it's not worn or underequipped! On the other side - it's comfortable and really nice! Breakfast - on the roof top - excellent experience! Staff was also really nice - helpful and smiling. We loved our stay and would recommend the hotel to anyone. There are stairs - hotel is on a second floor but it's nothing for a normal person, we were with 3 kids and luggage and managed ;)

nothing! everything was just as it supposed to be!

My family needed simple clean lodging and this hotel Biscari worked out perfect. Staffs are friendly and location is outstanding. Train station in 15mins walk and bus stop is right across hotel. Big bus terminal is 7mins away. Easy to get around in Sicily.

Really secured for 24hrs but at night you have to buzz to open entrance door.

The hotel is ideally situated in the historic heart of Catania, housed in a beautiful old building. Our room was expansive, adorned tastefully, impeccably clean, and the amenities were top-notch. We arrived early from Taormina, typically too soon for check-in, but our room was already prepared and the staff extended a warm welcome. I had made some inquiries about airport transfers prior to our arrival, and the responses were consistently prompt, detailed, and helpful. The breakfast was superb, offering a variety of options, and it was delightful to enjoy it on the hotel's beautiful rooftop terrace. The hotel's charm and the staff's extraordinary kindness and hospitality together crafted a unique experience for us as guests. Should we ever return to Catania, Hotel Biscari will undoubtedly be our choice again. Grazie mille!

Everything was fine.

The “city tax” is a scam and your lovely city needs to get rid of the people pushing the shakedowns. It’s embarrassing. We feel bad that the hotel industry is subject to this corruption. You cannot make people pay something after. Put it in the invoice so that it can be paid via credit card so there is a record. We all know why it is cash payment. Shameful.

Any shortcomings in the property were completely compensated for by the staff who could not have done more to make us feel welcome and comfortable. The view from the roof top terrace gives one a glimpse of the port and distant beaches as well as an over view of the roof of the nearby five star hotel.

The stairs my seem daunting to the unfit with large suit cases but help is at hand if requested and often when not.

Breakfast was good. Chiara and Angela were very sweet and efficient. Coffee and fruits were out of this world. They had a variety of food to choose from. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. Location is ideal; walking distance to the piazza and restaurants.

Air conditioning in the rooms only. Alot of stairs, was extremely hot and uncomfortable to be in the living area. I felt sorry for the staff;they were all sweaty.

Staff very friendly. Breakfast service excellent. Chiara was extremely hospitable. Her coffees were excellent, and she delivered them in a timely fashion. She was extremely accommodating. Her cappuccinos were fantastic.

We found the stairs to be a bit challenging. It would have been nice if there was an elevator.
