Pia

Liked: Staff & service
The gate getting into the property was not so obvious from the street took some time to find it . Getting into the gate was fine once you located it . The entrance into the building was sketchy to say the least , once you get over that part of it and get upstairs to the apt it was fine . The girl was sitting at the desk as you enter the B and B. There are approx . 6 rooms and each room is for other guests . The room was fairly clean but the worst was the mattresses they literally had huge indents in them and very difficult to sleep . I recommend the owners change the mattresses if they don't want complaints . The bottom left side of the shower had a leak and the water has damaged the trim around the door , it was black and mouldy . Other then these couple of things the place was adequate for the 1 nite stay that I had to stay in Catania. Its location is very close to the Main Street which is convenient.

Great room in a real palazzo

Great room, with wonderful ceilings and a separate sitting room. The location is perfect for sightseeing and convenient for the airport. Reception is not open after 2000 but a staff member is available to let you in. Would definitely recommend.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
It was a great property and surprisingly offered private parking in the middle of the busy city! (There isn’t real clear signage on the street, be aware you have to look for a big black metal gate to enter the property.) We were able to walk everywhere and the piazza and sights were SO close. We had a big jacuzzi tub, beautifully painted high ceilings, and the bed was comfortable. We definitely recommend, especially if you’re coming off a long flight into the Catania airport.

Great, safe stay for solo traveller.

The staff at the Palazzo Bruca were incredible! They were very accommodating for an earlier check in and to assist with securing me transport for a very early morning flight to Rome. The room was clean and comfortable. Access in felt safe after hours. The location was perfect in the town centre with easy access to all the historical sights and tour companies. Highly recommend!

We liked everything about our stay here. The location as there are lots of restaurants and shopping nearby. Transportation is steps away. The staff are friendly. Room was very clean. Price was reasonable. It was our 2nd time staying here within 6 weeks, when we come back to Catania we will stay here again.
