aaronholdawayAn absolutely beautiful stay in a wonderful place. My room was incredibly modern, had steps built into the furniture to a private balcony area, was incredibly clean and comfortable and I was really well looked after throughout. It was affordable, and one of the best places I've stayed. The passion for the local area really shone through from the moment I arrived, with a map on the front desk and friendly knowledgable service throughout.
It's not far from the main central area of Catania, and on a single road from the centre (more or less), so very easy to find your way from and to. There are shops nearby for water and snacks too.
At breakfast, I was looked after and had a range of toast (which was prepared for me to order), pastries, yoghurt, coffee and juice.
I feel very privileged to have found it and would have no hesitation going back or recommending. Outstanding.

Location of the room was amazing - really close to all amenities, and 5 minutes walk to the center of Catania
2 minutes from breakfast, and evening meals and drinks
Very modern inside the room - shower was really powerful, fridge that worked very well, and TV. The coffee maker was an excellent edition.
Access was very well organized, with key codes and card access - made us feel very safe
There was a power shut down twice for the block - lasting for a few hours - we just went out! Came back and it was all turned on.
The key codes did not work and we were stuck out side - however, the company sorted this out straight away - and we were left waiting for minutes only - they were amazing.
Communication was excellent, and fast
I would stay here again, and would highly recommend
Thanks!

Papali was on the first floor of a very old building, so expect to walk up a few steps with your luggage, because there's no elevator ... But, the Signore who welcomed us was very friendly and even went downstairs - while I already could go into our room - to help my husband find a parking spot on the street nearby.
We had a very good night in a simple, but super clean and quite big room, comfy bed as well ... Bathroom was nice and clean with plenty of towels ...
The first picture I took in the morning after our night at Papali out from the balcony, the second was taken in the morning when we had our breakfast served kindly in the little dining area ...
Btw, Papali is located wonderfully - it's an easy walk to all the main sightseeing spots of Catania! I added some pictures of our evening walk ...
Summary: Papali is a great choice locationwise and if you do not want to spend too much, but still want to have a cozy night at a simple but friendly and nice place.

Хорошее место, если остановится на несколько дней в Катании, цена соответствует качеству. Могут быть трудности с заселением, заранее обсудите все нюансы с хозяином, поскольку я не смог сразу же попасть в подъезд и получил инструкции по заселению в последний момент уже на месте. Чисто, все работает, но хотелось бы больше услуг. Например, гладильная доска и холодильник в комнате не помешали бы. Минимум посуды и чайник были бы очень кстати. В районе есть неплохие места для перекуса и кофе, а также возможность добраться до общественного пляжа пешком, но немного далековато от центра. Хороший балкон, но, к сожалению, мне достался номер, откуда не было видно Этну, которой я так хотел любоваться с балкона. Уборка каждый день.

I arrived at the rooms, but my internet wasn’t working, so I had to ask the lovely ppl in the cafe underneath to phone the owner. All went well after that. I would get the info needed to check in before arriving, incase your Wifi doesn’t work straight away. The room is in a block of flats, So central to everything, check out the market on Saturdays, you can see it through through your window.
It was rather cold and stormy when I arrived and was really cold, I asked for a heater and it came straight away. The flat has coffee and tea facilities in the main kitchen/dining area.
Good value and best location, near everything,can be a bit noisy at night as it’s over a busy bustation/square.
Shops and train station all nearby and walkable.
Highly recommend!
Pictures are from views from window , as you see they were in middle of building up the square.

I'm delighted to share my experience at this hotel.
It's truly an excellent hotel: the room was very comfortable and pleasant, with meticulous attention to detail. I particularly appreciated the attention to detail—small gestures like leaving fresh bottles of water and candy every day really make a difference and demonstrate great care and a positive attitude toward guests.
The location is also a major plus. It's true that the entrance through the parking lot can be a little difficult to find at first, but once you arrive, you discover that the hotel is in an excellent location: close to the seafront, easily accessible on foot, in a very pleasant, clean, and quiet neighborhood.
I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel and will definitely return in the future. I highly recommend it.

Hotel very clean. Great service. Unfortunately, the breakfasts leave much to be desired. But the gratification is great coffee.

Guest UserI will definitely go back. Practically on the sea. The beautiful beach a few meters from the bungalow. Excellent cleaning. Friendly and pleasant staff. Large green spaces. Restaurant and tobacconist. Nearby there are restaurants, bars and a Lidl reachable in a few minutes by car. Bus stop for Catania center right at the entrance of the structure. Airport 5 minutes away.
