Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

As most say about this spot it is a place for quietness and relaxation. It’s shady and large enough to “lose” a lot of people in to keep that sense of peacefulness.
Safe too - the Carabinieri patrol the outer track by car.

This great park was built with a lot of love to the details.
We came here to find some shades and quietness. We found both and had a nice break from the rush of the city.
Especially nice was the pathway with all the busts of the important men and the pavilion - unfortunately was this one not in the shade.

This garden is quite beautiful with a wide variety of trees, plants and flowers. There are architectural qualities as well. It is relaxing.

What a lovely place to wander around, sit on a bench and relax and take in the sun.
We went back in the evening to see it lit up and go for an after dinner stroll.

This park was built in 19. century in honor of Bellini, the famous composer. We walked there and enjoyed quiet, relaxing time. Around there are green grass, nice plants, palm trees and many statues. It’s very popular for locals: they had picnik or walked with their kids and dogs.

Open park area at the heart of Catania with really good areas for walking, exercising and enjoying a stroll with dogs. The most interesting part of the park is the plants that is changed everyday to show the date, feel like it's going beyond but in Italy, it's all an art. Really enjoyed the walks but didn't like the dog owners who didn't clean up after their dogs and ruin the experience for everyone.

Beautiful park, a bit higher up in the center of Catania, is a wonderful retreat with gardens, tall trees, a pond, statues and playground for children. I was a bit confused as locals call this park Villa Bellini. In the local dialect 'villa' means garden.
Formerly it was part of a private 18th century estate. Then only for the rich, now open for the general public.

A beautiful and extensive gardens with paths and statues everywhere, children's play area, and tracks and paths for joggers. A lovely place for a quiet stroll at any time of day.

Nice to get away from the crowds and actually have a bit of greenery around you. I think this is the only peaceful place in a horrible city. Nice park but I think it could be much better with a few ice cream stalls or snack stalls.

buongiorno, desidero conoscere quanto la struttura sia vicina al teatro bellini o se qualcuno puo' essermi di aiuto nel trovare un B&B nei pressi del Teatro, ovvero raggiungerlo a piedi facilmente; inoltre desidererei sapere se la vostra struttura sia raggiungibile in auto e se vi sia possibilità di parcheggio. Grazie e saluti

How far would this be to walk from the cruise ship terminal please, and is that an uphill walk?

Unless you are a swift walker it would be a long walk from the cruise ship terminal. I would take a local bus or a taxi. Yes, it is only a short walk from the Duomo. If you only have a short time in Catania then I would question whether you would need to waste time on the Garden. There are many more interesting things to see. However, if you are looking for a vantage point or just to get out of the hub bub of the town, then this would be a place to do so but you would need to climb all those steps.
