Everything was great, we really enjoyed our stay with our little daughter. Super place spacious room and very friendly staff. If we come to Catania again we will be happy to stay again

The room furnishings were a bit dated, especially the bed was a disaster, the right side of the bed was sunken, and sleeping on that side was a punishment ( yes I slept there ) my wife slept fine

The location was very convenient - just steps from the main square, shops and restaurants. Additionally, the owner and his son were excellent hosts. Due to a national train strike on the day we traveled to Catania, we didn't arrive at the hotel until almost midnight, but the host was incredibly cordial and was able to meet us when we arrived to get us settled in. The room was quiet, clean and comfortable, with high ceilings and a small balcony. One of the reasons we visited Catania was to tour Mount Etna. The host had contacted me ahead of time and provided information on some guided tours for Mount Etna. We wound up booking our tour through the hotel, which was very convenient. The tour was excellent and the host at Hotel Gorizia made the process very easy.

Hotel Gorizia is a basic hotel with a perfect location in the old centre of Catania. If you are traveling by bus, get off at the bus stop on the Piazza Paolo Borsellino, It's then only a 3 minute walk to the hotel. The owner was very helpful and friendly. Air con, beds shower all great. The whole room was very clean. Don't be put off by the outside. It could do with a few lights, it looks a bit dingy, but directly you go in you met with a a lot of marble and a lot of steps. Travellers with disabilities be advised that there are a lot of steps.

Room was dark due to an awning over the window.

The location is the best! Everything is walkable from this location, perfect spot for a couple days in Catania. The staff (2 people) were very friendly and helpful. The room was lovely, not modern, but had charm. Linens and towels were clean. Bathroom was a good size, clean and shower was nice. There were good amenities in the room such as refrigerator, tea kettle, coffee cups, etc. I liked having a balcony, even though the view was of the street and other buildings. The bed was comfortable enough, no luxuries to the linens but happy they were clean and fresh. The temperature in the room was good and there were good controls to adjust it. Security of the building was good too. There are stairs to the rooms, didn't notice any elevators. Would definitely stay again!

The TV didn't work, but not really necessary for my stay. The hot water in the shower didn't last long or didn't work :( Location was the best!

The location was excellent, very close to the main piazza, lots of restaurants close by, mini markets and also the fish market. We were able to walk everywhere and the bus station was close by too. It was also the quietest hotel we have stayed in while in Sicily. The owner was very helpful and the hotel was very secure. We were grateful to have a fridge and kettle.

The front entrance could be improved. It doesn’t look good from the outside, but as soon as you get through the door and see the marble staircase you get an entirely different impression.

The hotel is very conveniently located near cafes, restaurants, and markets. The room was very spacious and clean; the availability of a fridge and coffee making facilities was very welcome. The air conditioner was superb, particularly as our stay was during an unusually warm time. The bathroom was clean and equally spacious. The hot water was hot and full pressure.

There is one flight of stairs which although look authentic and true to the accommodation style, bags need to be negotiated up. Fortunately our lovely host carted my wife's bag when he was showing us the room.

Fantastic location just next to the Duomo. Close to the restaurants and bars and all the sights but yet nice and quiet. Just a 2-star hotel, so nothing fancy, but the room (one with a balcony) was big, clean and comfortable. Host was helpful and friendly, and the fridge with cold drinks at very reasonable prices was a welcome bonus! Definitely one of the better 2-star hotels.

All very good.

The location was absolutely stellar! It was in the center of town near the fish market and the main piazza by the duomo. Yet, it was so quiet as it was on a side street. The owner, his son and the housekeeping staff were all so sweet, accommodating and lovely. The room that my husband and I had was huge, the bed and bathroom were super comfortable and clean and the amenities like the coffee and and refrigerator were a nice touch. We will stay there again if we have an opportunity to return to Catania.

My first night was in a single room, before my husband arrived the following day. The room was small with no air conditioning and only a small window in a bathroom. It was dark, very hot and uncomfortable. However, the other room for the next two nights for the two of us was fantastic. If the weather were not so hot, I am sure the single room would have been just fine as the price was very reasonable for what the room was like.

Salvo and his sons were absolutely great people; kind, considerate and generous. We really enjoyed our stay there. The room was a good size, very clean and comfortable, with all the necessary amenities The hotel is in a great location too; close to the Basilica, the piazza, really nice restaurants and caffè's as well as the fish market, which is a sight to behold. Thank you Salvo for making our stay a pleasurable one!

No elevator.

Great location right in the city centre. Salvo was an excellent host and helped us organise taxis. The room was clean and comfortable with a lovely balcony. The room had air con and a fridge to store cold drinks which were needed in the heat! The hotel is set in a beautiful old building with secure doors and very quiete inside

Nothing!
