Il Principe Hotel Catania, Catania

Il Principe Hotel is an imposing, four-star hotel in a prime location in the heart of the Sicilian city of Catania. Perched on the Alessi Steps, the hotel is a perfect spot from which to explore this historic city and beyond. The decor throughout the property is exquisite, with marble floors, sumptuous fabrics and subdued lighting. Each of the 25 rooms is equipped with every convenience, including air conditioning, in-room safe, mini-bar, satellite TV and luxury en-suite facilities. Some rooms are in fact suites, comprising a main room and a separate, mezzanine level, and some have terraces with views over the city's pretty skyline. This Catania hotel offers beauty treatments and a gymnasium, and families can arrange baby-sitting services with the courteous staff at reception.

Though the bars and restaurants of central Catania are only moments away, guests preferring a quiet drink can relax in Il Principe's inviting piano bar without having to leave the comfort of the hotel. Anyone feeling a little more adventurous, however, should stroll along Via Etnae, home to the city's most fashionable cafes, or book seats at one of Catania's numerous theatres ... perhaps to see an opera composed by Catania's very own Vincenzo Bellini. There are also several striking churches to visit, as well as Castello Ursino which houses the civic museum. From Catania, it is only an hour by bus to Nicolosi, from which guests can get as close as is safely possible to the summit of Mount Etna. This hotel in Catania is excellently placed for seeing all the sights.
