B&B Crociferi Catania

This is one of the most amazing B&B's I have ever stayed at. The host, Terese, was incredibly helpful with restaurant recommendations and help with local attractions and travel advice during the rail strike. She is a fluent English speaker. She booked a taxi for me on arrival at Catania airport which was well worthwhile as the airport is a confusing mess. He was such a good and reliable driver that we used him throughout our stay. The rooms are immaculately clean and comfortable, with air conditioning, tea and coffee making facilities and they are very quiet. The B&B is very secure with an outer locked gate to the courtyard with an entry phone, a locked outer door and an internal locked door. We did not find any problems having a separate bathroom as the door for it was right next to the door of our room. When we came back later during our stay in Sicily she kindly upgraded us to a better room for no charge! Breakfast was ten euros and was delicious, with a cappucino, yoghurt, juice, cold meats and cheese and delicious bread. City tax was two euros per person per night. When I had a problem plugging my shaver charger in, Terese kindly found me a special adapter.

It was great to stay at Crociferi B&B, such an authentic and beautiful place in the historic part of Catania, very centrally located, quiet, and very clean. The owner, Teresa, paid personal attention to each guest, which made our stay very pleasant. If we travel to Catania again in the future to visit other places in Sicily, we will definitely choose Crociferi B&B again.

Historic house in the most beautiful and fascinating street of Catania (via Crociferi). Our accommodation was beautiful, attention to detail, with a beautiful lush terrace from which you had a spectacular view of the city. Tasteful furnishings, from beautiful paintings with butterflies, to hand-embroidered sheets, from wall decorations, to original floors. Recommended for anyone who appreciates this kind of environments and have the necessary care. Too bad we only stayed one night. We would very much go back. Thanks to the owners
