| Catania is situated in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, along the Eastern coast of Sicily. The city, dominated by the Volcano Etna, still keeps the rests of his Roman (Odeon and Amphitheatre) and Norman’s (Castello Ursino) heritages, as well as to a large center area characterized by several XVIII century Baroque style buildings. The hotel awaits you next to the Roman Amphitheatre located in Piazza Stesicoro, in the historical and commercial centre of the city, in Via San Vito n. 40. |

The best experience that I have ever had in 15 trips to Italy. The rooms were extremely large and elegantly appointed. When I decided to stay another night, they gave me a suite--the biggest that I have ever seen for 20 euros more for a total of 140 euros. For the same amount I received a small, dirty room in Rome. The employees were the most friendly that I encountered in many trips to Italy, tied only with the management at my hotel in Palermo. The only problem is that it is most difficult to find in a rental car, primarily because of the narrow one-way streets. When when I arrived, all was worth it.

We got a friendly upgrading to a two-floor
suite with a terrace. The decorations of the room
and of the public areas were exceptionally beautiful and done with a great taste. Everything was very elegant. The staff was friendly and very helpful. The breakfast was very good as well.
A great place to stay in Catania.

We were upgraded to the best suite for 159e. It was a palace. The people were wonderful. The neighborhood is NOT BAD (other comments said it was). It is within walking distance of the city center and Piazza Duomo (beautiful). The hotel was featured on the front page of a global hotel trade magazine. It is that gorgeous. Downside is no restaurant, but very nice ones within walking distance. One oddity...took pictures of the room. (Will post). Orbs appeared on a chair, the sofa, and the wardrobe in the bedroom. Wasn't the camera cause they're not in any other pictures!!! Sooo... friendly spirits because we felt very welcome.

The hotel staff was the nicest I have ever met. Maybe so nice that a few more days would have been too much! They were very smiley and helpful. The room was nice and clean and the hotel's location is very close to the city - just a 10 min. walk. The mattresses and pillows were very hard. That must have been the only minus - it gave me a real headache.

The Liberty Hotel is beautiful. The rooms are spacious and decorated with the finest of furnishings. The bathrooms are the best of any we encountered on our trip. The staff were friendly, efficient and helpful. The breakfasts were superb. The only trouble we had was that the quoted price for a double room, was given as a single and we got a surprise when it was time to pay. But, I must say with all how wonderful the rest of our stay was, we were happy to pay more than planned. The only other drawback would have to be that the neighborhood around the hotel isn't exactly lovely, but it did have free underground parking, so I wasn't worried about my car. We like to walk, so going to the shopping area wasn't a problem for us.

The Hotel Liberty is located very near the main shopping area and the Duomo. I rated the surroundings as poor, but I think it would be very difficult to find an area of downtown Catania that is not dirty and dilapidated. The hotel provided a beautiful sanctuary in such a city. The staff was very kind and helpful. We had both a suite and a single. The single was very very small, but the suite was fantastic.

We stayed in the Liberty hotel for one night and appreciated ist very much. It is a beautiful house, very well kept and with a very friendly treatment. It's located near the historical centre (5 minutes walking distance) and in general quiet, but can be a little noisy by few cars passing by at night.

I stayed in Catania only for one day, just to take a look at the centre of the city before moving to another place in Sicily, so I didn't have the chance to fully appreciate and fairly evaluate the hotel services.
Anyway, despite in the surroundings the buildings are a bit badly preserved, the hotel is extremely charming and clean, artistically furnished.
In my opinion breakfast quality is the only aspect that could be slightly improved (coffee and pastry).
I would recommend this hotel to anyone, ranging from business travellers (even if it seems to have only one single room, and double room for single use might be a bit expensive) to young and old couples, to little and not noisy group of friends.

Impeccable service. Very kind personnel. Reserved for us a wonderful fish restaurant next to the fish-market (Antica Marina). All in all an experience which was worth the money. We've experienced a few hotels in Italy but only few are up to the "Liberty".

I just stayed for a night but this is an exceptional place. Just 10 minutes walk from the city central road. Pity the immediate surroundings are very degradated, but the hotel itself is perfect. Very good breakfast, no wifi internet.
