Liberty Hotel  

We found the hotel down a scruffy sidestreet but once we were inside impressions changed and were very favourable.They welcomed us with a reviving drink and nibbles, parked the car for us as my wife is disabled and offered us a choice of rooms. The whole attitude of the staff and management was friendly and courteous and nothing was too much trouble. They tried at length to get opera tickets for us but we should have booked prior to leavivg the uk. They listed all their favourite restaurants for us and gave us maps and directions. We ate locally 200 yards from the hotel at a family restaurant that they recommended that filled up at 8.30 with all the locals. Food was good and prices were low. Breakfast was "continental" in nature but cake and lots of fruit were available. I would recommend highly: you will not be disappointed.

Staff were very accommodating, and knowledgeable as well. The room was large and well appointed, in an old building that has been modernized. The breakfast was substantial with good variety.

Nothing. It is not on a main street, some might not like that, but that means it is quieter.

The hotel was very elegant and beautiful. The room was amazing with a wonderful high painted ceiling. The staff were extremely helpful and attentive. Although the room was lovely the bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Overall I thought the hotel was lovely and I was truly impressed by how beautiful it was.

Hard bed. Also a charge of 8 euros for a tiny glass of fresh orange juice and an extra charge for hard boiled eggs? There was a tv in our room but of the many channels available only 3 were in English,they were all news and bbc world use was unwatchable as the reception was bad. The selection of pay films on offer was very poor.

Clean comfortable room. Excellent buffet breakfast. Quiet location. Very professional staff.

The excellent and friendly service from the staff

Continental breakfast

We stayed in an extremely comfortable suite and were very impressed by the staff professionalism and facilities. Although the hotel appears to be in a less salubrious part of the city, we felt very safe and the hotel is very convenient for walking to attractions in the olf town. Catania itself is fascinating and we believe that it is somewhat unfairly represented in some travel reviews, It has an edginess but much history.

We arrived at the bus station from Noto, and found it impossible to locate a taxi, although the staff had given us clear instructions as to how to do this. But this was almost certainly the problem of the bus system rather than the hotel.

Excellent Service and Staff. The whole presentation of the hotel was some of the best we have seen however and did not give the impression of a large hotel were this type of decor is usualy found and therefore was more personal.

Very well presented and nothing was to much trouble for any of the staff. They booked us tours arranged a hire car for the next week and also printed out our future hotel bookings in other Italian hotels. We arrived early for a 3 day stay and as our room was not ready we were offered breakfast free of charge.

Excellent interior and first class service.

The exterior and location are less welcoming.

I liked the location of the hotel as it was very easy to see the town. The staff was very polite and helped in any questions.

Large, beautiful room. Staff helpful and friendly. Very good breakfast. Great location - can walk to sights.

The suite room is on the ground level, then it's dark and the king size bed was not so comfortable. Then I wouldn't recommand the suite.

very friendly , helpfull, good english speaking personal at the reception desk , it is in the middle of the centre , so a lot of very small streets before you get there but it is wirth looking for it , very nice , warm hotel , beautifull bathroom , very nice bedrooms , the entrance is beautifull . free wireless , near to nice little restaurants .

op de bookingsite staat 4 km van de airport , dit is niet helemaal correct , het is verder maar geen reden om dit hotel te vermijden !!

The hotel staff was exceptional. I felt so welcome and at home. I would return to this hotel in a heartbeat. The Manager and Francesca were people I'd like to commend for their hospitality and expertise. Everything was perfect for visiting the city of Catania at the Liberty Hotel.

It's a couple of blocks out of the city center, but worth it.
