Very good central location easily reached by bus from the airport. The hotel building was quirky and interesting and seemed almost part of the amphitheatre ruins. The manager Anna was very attentive and helpful. We were given vouchers for breakfast in a nearby cafe.

It would have been useful to have more than 1 set of room keys if we had decided to go out separately. Some mosquito netting on the bathroom window would have been useful as I got many bites after a wet weather night.

The best part of this hotel is most certainly its host. Anna was so kind and pleasant throughout our stay and went out of her way to make us comfortable. She stayed up late for us on the day we checked in due to unforseen delays in our travel plans. We were also very confused on the parking situation... Anna actually got in our car with us and showed us the best place to park. She gave us so many incredible recommendations as far as best places to eat. And let me tell you - she was so right. The food was indescribably incredible. ALSO - if you stay at this hotel, Anna gives you vouchers for free Italian breakfast at a nearby Cafe. The food there was also authentic and amazing. In addition and beyond our affinity for Anna, the room was very well decorated, modern, clean, and safe. We also really appreciated the hotel's location to all of the main attractions in Catania. Do yourself a favor and book this hotel!

Virtually nothing! The experience was wonderful.

Relais Anfitheatro is situated in amazing location. Historically it’s renovated form an old amount amphitheater that you can see. The boutique apartment is so well taken care of. super clean, very comfortable mattress, extremely spacious. Anna was so nice to reach out and go the extra mile to make sure we checked in and accommodated all our requests. A crib was setup for our little one The free coffee and snacks is such a nice touch and the terrace was really lovely to have.

Nothing at all!

I hadn’t really done any proper research before arriving in Catania, and was pleasantly surprised at how centrally located it was. Right in the heart of the town. But most importantly for me, it was a super quiet and calm haven away from the heat and craziness of Catania. Anna was the perfect hostess and went out of her way to make sure my stay was comfortable and relaxed.

Nothing. I had no problems. It was perfect for me.

I recently had the opportunity to stay at the Relais Anfitheatro in Catania, and overall, it was a pleasant experience. The hotel is primarily a bed and breakfast establishment, and while it may not have all the amenities of a full-service hotel, it does offer a cozy and comfortable stay. One thing to note is that breakfast is not served directly at the hotel. Instead, guests receive a coupon to use at a restaurant around the corner. The coupon system worked smoothly, and the staff at the restaurant were friendly and accommodating. The standout feature of the Relais Anfitheatro is undoubtedly the hostess, Anna. She is a big plus for the hotel and plays a crucial role in ensuring a pleasant stay for guests. Anna was warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful throughout my visit. She provided valuable recommendations for local attractions, dining options, and transportation, going the extra mile to make sure guests have a great experience in Catania. The rooms at the Relais Anfitheatro are comfortable and well-maintained. The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. Some rooms even provide views of the ancient Roman amphitheater, which adds a touch of historical charm. Although the hotel doesn't have extensive on-site facilities, it does feature a rooftop terrace that provides a nice space to relax and enjoy the views of Catania. The terrace offers a quiet escape from the bustling streets below and is a pleasant spot to unwind after a day of exploring the city. In terms of location, the Relais Anfitheatro is conveniently situated in the heart of Catania. It's within walking distance of many attractions, restaurants, and shops, allowing guests to easily explore the city on foot. Overall, the Relais Anfitheatro is a charming bed and breakfast hotel in Catania. With the pleasant rooms, helpful hostess, and central location make it a decent choice for those looking for a cozy and comfortable stay in the city.

It is a lovely b&b beside the Roman amphitheater. The host Anna assisted us with any requests we had, from sites to visit to arranging our taxi to the airport and helping us with our luggage at 5 in the morning! There were complimentary snacks in the room as well as the common area.

We completely enjoyed our stay there. Any request we had was met with a smile.

Absolutely perfect location! Very central but still away from the city noise. The suite was extremely nice and comfortable, we didn’t lack anything at all. The host was super nice and gave us very good recommendations. The cherry on top was the fact that it is literally located in an amphitheatre, as the name suggests. We could see the original bricks in our own room!

Nothing.

Anna was lovely and the place was quiet and clean. It was nice to step into the courtyard and leave the bustle of the city behind.

The balcony in the room was only a Juliet balcony. We would have also liked another chair in the room as one of us had to sit on the bed.

Well situated accommodation in a small courtyard of a main street. Very central. We had a spacious room, a comfortable bed and a clean bathroom of a good size. Our host was charming and helpful. I could understand her very clear Italian..

There was nothing to dislike. We would recommend staying here.

It was spotless and felt safe and serene despite being located next to the main tourist area. The host was friendly and helpful and the room was spacious, elegant and comfortable
