Hotel Mercure Catania Excelsior
Piazza G. Verga 39, 95129 Catania, Italy – Great location - show map – Metro access
I think it was once pure luxury but looking tired in this very modern world, but all the staff were top notch
United KingdomVery good, staff very helpful and cleans room daily. Called us a taxi to get to the airport on checkout.
United KingdomThe hotel is in a good location and our room was big, if a bit dated, with a fabulous view of Mount Etna. The levels of cleanliness were high, all the staff were friendly, the breakfasts offered a plentiful choice and the bar area was comfortable and welcoming. We were presented with tasty little canapés with our drinks and the two dinners we ate there were cooked perfectly.
United KingdomWe thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. There was a variety of foods available for us to choose from. For us the location was perfect. We wanted a place close to everything but not in the middle of Catania.
AustraliaWe had an emergency stopover as missed a flight and received a good night sleep, met by pleasant receptionist. Can’t complain
United KingdomLocation is great. Breakfast was good. Staff was friendly and welcoming and professional.
ItalyFor city such as Catania ( derelict ,without maintenance ) since 1940's , I can say that Mercure hotel is the best hotel in all Catania city and suburbs. it is without doubt the only hotel deserve staying in Catania. the staff are very friendly, professional and helpful. I can say their staff are the assets of their success, besides the location is perfect , which is very close to the all the city facilities ( shopping , airport and inter transportation) .bathroom so clean and they proved all the accessories for free. room with mini bar and extra blanket and safe box. staff and location are Super Perfect , I highly recommend Mercure Catania Excelsior
United Arab EmiratesOur room was great, plenty of space and comfortable. The bar was excellent with some nice snacks. The staff were very friendly and helpful, organising taxis, providing umbrellas and excursion information. Mount Etna visible, weather permitting.
United KingdomCosy room, comfortable bed, view to Etna. Good breakfast, polite staff.
HungaryWhat's good thing is the friendliness of the staff specially Gianluca. He was very accommodating, helpful and good command of English. The breakfast was nice though it has limited selection.
