Fantastic location to central Catania and visit the Roman stadium ruins. Great breakfast on the rooftop patio with views and delicious cappuccinos made by the staff. The staff at check-in also helped us park our rental car right at the property when we arrived. Spacious room and really nice to have separate twin bars for the kids.
Older style hotel with many stairs to climb to get to the hotel. Parking was very limited so book ahead. Excellent staff on site. Lots to walk to and see.
Great location, excellent breakfast with variety of choices , very good customer service. We stay 4 nights. Easy to walk to the central area and bus stops. 24/7 reception.
Room was clean great AC. Front desk guy Oscar was awesome very helpful. Good location a short walk to attractions.
Stayed 2 nights in May 2024

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Adventurous hotel but it was fine.
Very basic high ceiling huge room with three beds and the bathroom was largest well. Close to a lot of restaurants and bars. Front desk clerk was very helpful impact our bags and new about the area
The staff are warm and friendly. Easily walkable to major sights. Breakfast was fresh and the service was excellent.
Arranged a shuttle service for us to the airport at a reasonable charge.
Our room was very large for the three of us with vaulted ceilings. A/c worked very well and shower was adequate
Only issue was street noise late at night from bars nearby.
Would return and recommend to others.
The hotel is in a great location just down the street from the main square. It is in an older building - the pictures on the site accurately depict what it looks like. The rooms are large and clean. The staff is lovely, and the breakfast is a nice perk. The front desk is open 24/7 which makes coming and going super easy. Very close to all the main sights in Catania.
Super nice management, very helpful with any requests. About a 25 minute walk from train station. Great breakfast included. Stairs only three flights, no big whoop.
The beds were really old, like you laid in a hole. The warm water came after at least 5 minutes in the shower.
The breakfast was really nice and the service during check-in was perfect.
Beautiful huge room with multiple beds! Staff all very helpful.
The location was great only 5 min walk into the centre
Only down side was the 70 stairs from ground level to reception. There is no lift
Thank you for a great stay
From we arrived to we left, we experienced nothing but smiles and helpfulness. Yes, you need to walk up a few flight of stairs, but after all the pasta we have been eating, that is no problem. From the beautifully decorated big room to the wonderful rooftop terrasse where we ate our breakfast, the Biscary hotel was an amazing experience - also located right in the middle of Catania just a few steps away from incredible restaurants. Highly recommended for a more laid back and personal Italien living experience.
Super helpful and nice staff.
Oscar was awesome - at the front desk, helping with the car and being available.
Nice breakfast. Huge room.
Walkable to almost everywhere. Small shops for backery and deli goods right on the msin street.
Bus to the airport almost at your doorstep.
The hotel is old but clean and very convenient to all the central areas of interest. The staff was great especially Angela! She was the most helpful and friendly person I met this vacation. Always a smile and volunteered to carry our luggage (in fact insisted) up the 70 steps to the room. She helped park our rental car in the courtyard and answered all our questions. I can not remember meeting a hotel staff member this friendly and helpful. The breakfast was good and served up on a rooftop terrace. The room was simple ( we did only book a basic room) but the shower stall was very small. You could not bend over to pick something up! They had daily cleaning and 24 hour reception which was nice. This place is not for someone who doesn’t like going up and down steps as there are a lot. The tv had mainly shopping network stations and nothing in English and I was not able to hook up my Roku that I brought from home. If it wasn’t for Angela I would rate it much lower.
We had a great stay and really appreciated the excellent communication before and during our visit. The staff were friendly, helpful, and made everything easy. Thank you for your hospitality – we would be happy to stay here again!
Wonderful stay. Lovely, friendly and helpful staff. Very close to the main square and all the main attractions. Very good breakfast! We had a great time!
The hotel is located near the downtown. The Room was clean and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious with a lot of different meals. The reception is 24 hours available. Definitely, a good place to stay in Catania.
