"Good and peaceful base for exploring central Catania. No traffic noise as hotel is on a small cul-de-sac. Rooms are large and bathroom in 321 had a full bath. Staff were helpful and friendly. Aircon in our room was not working . Toilet seat had come loose . Bed was large and firm. Overall a decent space . TV was LG and fairly modern. Only had Italian channels."

"Had a great stay of 5 nights, really enjoyed the stay at this hotel. The staff here is wonderful, very helpful. The location is perfect very close to city center and easy access to all major attractions and transit.

"It was our first stay in Sicily. After this property, we visited several other places, so, we now know more about the market. This had clean rooms and friendly staff. However, the property had issues in the bathroom area (signs of mold and terrible smell). The air conditioner was making terrible noise. The bathroom had no heating and that was also contributing to the level of hygiene of the property. The floor was tiled but some tiles were damaged - causing discomfort. Location is very nice and the historical facts of the building are also attractive. Fixing the bathroom, AC and the tiles will certainly bring the place to good level of enjoyment. There are also structural problems of the columns of the entrance staircase that might collapse during the next big earthquake. That is a safety hazard."

"we had a fantastic easter weekend in Catania staying at Lidoro B&B. Breakfast was via a discounted ticket from the host at a lovely local Sicilian Cucina - 2 minutes walk - highly recommend this as very good value and great food / service. The accommodation could not be in a better location, turn right and left and a few hundred yards in front of you is the beautiful Duomo. We absorbed every bit of the Catholic celebrations of Easter - it was an amazing experience. We travelled to Taormina and Syracuse / Ortegia on the train (we found the Italian trains great value and reliable - anyone from the UK - just use the train line app - brilliant and you don't have to validate your ticket). The host was extremely responsive and helpful, his pizza recommendation was excellent ! This was our second trip to Sicily, The accommodation is in a great spot on the second floor of an historic apartment block - it has a lift and is quiet despite being very close to the busiest area in Catania. We would definitely recommend and would stay again if we return to Catania."

"we had a one night stay in the Manganelli Palace. The staff were exceptionally helpfull and friendly, which made up for the rather run down internal condition of the room and some of the corridors. My bathroom in particular was in need of a refurbishment as there was black mould around the bath. It was clean but run down. The bed was comfortable and the breakfast good. I would stay here again because it is so centrally located and the staff were so lovely."
