8Room Hotel

The room isn’t huge but it makes do. But I cannot understand why there’s never a plug beside the bed. People need to charge their phones. The bathroom is ok but there is nothing to place the toiletries in the shower, so you’re forced to either bend over in a very small space either open the shower multiple times and make a mess. The main issue is the breakfast. It’s the land of desolation and it’s really a pity. The croissants and the brioches are good, but regardless of the time of your arrival it’s never refurnished. No marmalades, 3 butters, 2 Nutellas, only one typeof cereal, no milk. Everything is missing, it seems raided. Why pay for an hotel breakfast if there’s less food that at home or any café? It could happen once, not constantly.

早餐種類很少，基本上沒有選擇，酒店隔音不好，晚上會被走廊的鬧聲吵醒！位置很好！

We stayed a week in this tiny hotel. It is very conveniently located within walking distance of everything in downtown Catania. The rooms were very well taken care of. I particularly liked the central air conditioning (better than a window mounted loud unit). This helped maintain a very comfortable temperature to beat the extremely hot Catania summer. Combined with the ability to completely darken the room this made it possible to rest anytime during the day or night. The breakfast provided was just okay with capuchino coffee as well as pastries and yogurt. My sister needed gluten free food and they provided some gluten free bread and pastries as well as lactose free milk and yogurt. We bought fruit at the huge outdoor market and supplemented the breakfast with delicious fresh fruit.

Modern hotel in a convenient and central location, served by a stop of the airport shuttle bus. It is small (fully transparent name: though, why do rooms have a 3-digit number if there are only 8 ?) and sort of minimalistic, but clean, functional and quiet. Some easy improvements could make a big difference, such as a little tray in the shower (I had to keep the soap on the floor) and a towel hook near the wash basin (I had to use the bidet to hold the hand towel). There is a tiny terrace for the ground floor rooms, while upstairs there are more pleasant little balconies for each room. There is a little enclosed area available for car parking, not sure if available to guests. The staff was cordial and helpful. I found the price commensurate with its characteristics. I would go back, but ensure I have a room upstairs.

Ho prenotato per motivi di lavoro questo Hotel 4 stelle. Prima anomalia non segnalata sul sito è che la gestione è tipo b&b, ovvero senza una presenza di personale dalla sera al mattino. La stanza era pulita ma con solo la biancheria per una persona, eravamo in due, ma pazienza arrangiamoci. Dopo una giornata di lavoro e dopo una doccia pre cena scendiamo e non troviamo nessuno, solo i nostri documenti sul banco della reception e....li prendiamo per ... sicurezza..!! L'indomani era una giornata lavorativa impegnativa, per cui sveglia mattiniera e colazione. Orario indicato dalle 7,30. Bene scendiamo in reception, non c'è nessuno e grazie alle indicazioni di una coppia presente saliamo al secondo piano dove era presente la sala colazione. Sono le 7,40 entriamo e non c'è nessuno. I cornetti presenti sono duretti e vecchi. Nulla altro è presente, forse dovevamo aprire noi il frigo e fare da noi? Apro vedo che all'interno c'è del prosciutto già tagliato secco senza alcuna protezione. Ok non è cosa... Scendiamo, nel frattempo c'è la presenza di una persona in reception, paghiamo e andiamo via!!!! Ritengo inutile rivolgere alcuna lamentela alla persona presente che non ci pensa neanche a porsi, farci domande e/o informarsi.... Andiamo via e la colazione la rinviamo alla prima tappa. Arrivati in azienda condividiamo e pubblicizziamo la nostra esperienza. In tanti anni che veniamo a Catania e giriamo anche altre nazioni non si è mai visto una cosa simile. Alla fine pazienza, la prossima volta torniamo in un hotel vicino....!!!

Il s'agit d'un hôtel de huit chambres comme le nom l'indique. Il est situé à 10 minutes de marche du centre-ville. J'y ai passé un excellent séjour. Chambre très propre, fonctionnelle, très bonne literie, plomberie et air conditionné opérationnels. Le petit-déjeuner est simple mais diversifié (café ou cappucino, viennoiseries, pain, jambon, fromage, yaourt, jus de fruits, deux sortes de céréales). Le personnel est accueillant et extrêmement serviable. Chaque jour, la chambre était faite le matin, ce qui permettait de travailler au moins dès midi (après une balade dans la ville de Catane par exemple). Le wifi fonctionnait très bien. L'hôtel n'étant pas situé en plein centre-ville, le bruit extérieur y est relativement limité (par comparaison avec des avis de collègues ayant séjourné ailleurs) mais reste présent à certains moments (l'hôtel est situé dans une petite rue avec un certain passage et la chambre que j'occupais donnait sur cette rue - ce n'était pas dérangeant pour travailler).
