Hotel La Palma — Hotel in Catania

If you are looking to visit Catania and hoping to meet the friendly, vibrant people too, then this is definitely the hotel for you.||||The hotel is exceptionally clean (daily room cleans and change of linens and towels), it has some fantastic views and all the ameniities that you can ask for. Comfortable beds, good size bathroom etc. What really made the hotel for us though were the people. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful. They could not do enough for us fir breakfast, travel arrangements, excursions etc.||||I would happily recommend Hotel La Palma to anyone travelling to Catania. To get to Catania Central, it takes around 35 minutes to walk or they will call a taxi for you. It's around a 10 inute walk to get to the seaside, and this is with my pregnant partner.||||The top of the road is host to a lovely market as well and there is a sar nearby for any drinks or fruit that you would like in the room, where there is a large fridge.||||All in all for me it was a 9 out of 10 for the hotel, if only they had a pool it would have been a 10.||||Brilliant holiday...

We thoroughly recommend this hotel for the peace and quiet in quite a lively area of Catania and definitely for the staff who were the best as we were there for a month due to my husband having had a heart attack on arrival for our 50th Wedding Anniversary trip. My son booked the hotel and we arrived on the 3rd day with my husband in the hospital but improving and about to go into the recovery ward. After 2weeks he came to the hotel to recover and was still quite poorly but the staff were all very caring and looked after us; Angela, the Manager, Carmen and Marieangela who shared duties, cleaning the rooms to a very high standard and also covering Reception and breakfast, but Massimo and Mario, the resident staff, helped to bring my husband's health back and, finding out that he was diabetic, cooked our meals every evening which was certainly what helped my husband to get stronger. We will always be grateful and after staying there for a month in total, we will miss them and hope to go back in the...

I had a really nice stay at Hotel La Palma for my recent work trip. Alessandro, the owner, was very welcoming at check-in and gave great recommendations for local dishes and restaurants. My room was very spacious with a queen bed, sofa, and table with two chairs. The room had two little balconies, air conditioning, and a refrigerator in a separate room with a wardrobe. The bathroom was clean and had everything one could need. I also enjoyed the outside furniture in the court yard :) The neighborhood was quiet and a supermarket in 2-minute walking distance. It was also just a short walk to the waterfront with restaurants. I deducted one star from the location rating because the hotel is quite far from the central train station (30 minutes), bus station (40 minutes), and old town (50 minutes). Can definitely recommend staying at Hotel La Palma if you don't...
