near the train and bus stations so excellent for travelling out of catania on day trips but it is a 15 to 20 min walk into the centre for a choice of evening meals. we ate at primo piano 3 times - as only 5 mins away and good food at reasonable prices. the area is really not that bad... More

The area is not the nicest one in Catania. It looks dirty and unsafe, however the hotel is nice and cosy, with a simple free breakfast and very polite and helpful staff. I would recommend it.

We stayed in the Hotel Villa Romeo for two nights at the end of a short tour of south-eastern Sicily. If you are arriving by bus or train, it is very well situated - less than 5 minutes from the station and easily located. It is very convenient if you are arriving from the airport on the airport bus ;... More

I stayed for three nights at the Hotel Villa Romeo in March 2012 and would definitely recommend it - and stay there again. I booked my room online and felt that I got extremely good value for money.

The room was sufficient (I stayed in a... More

We stayed at the Villa Romeo on the first and last nights of our recent holiday to Sicily. We chose it because it is handy for the railway station and buses to the airport. The staff were superb and so friendly, helping us to do our online check in for our flight and providing useful information on where to visit... More

Our stay was the most pleasant we remember, the hitel was magnificently different, oozing character, the staff was so lovely and helpful it made us wish we didn't have to leave, always on hand to help and advise, the terraces blooming with beautiful potted plants, ornate verandas and a feeling of tranquility that is almost impossible to imagine beforehand, specially...
