The hotel was chosen because of specific amenities and offerings based on the Travelocity listing. As I was arriving, I discovered the “on-site parking” is almost 10 minute walk to a lot that cost €5.50/day more than the hotel listing mentioned. The breakfast hours were wrong and they didn’t have any on-site laundry to use, even though the listing said it does. The owners are wonderfully kind people that did their best to make up for the incorrect information and promised to get the listing fixed. WiFi was very u reliable and TV was small. Bed was comfortable and shower comfortable to use.

The hotel was really lovely. Stylish, comfortable and very quiet despite being in the city. Our host, Antonio, was so kind and went the extra mile to help us. We are going back and would definitely recommend.

Lovely property full of character, with a lovely courtyard garden. Access off the street easy w code, location of room key was confusing but Antonio was available by text. Location is 20 min walk to most places we wanted to see. Quiet area on the edge of town, the jumpy tourist in me would be hesitant to walk alone at night but no one ever bothered us. Room was completely quiet, AC was very welcome. Breakfast offerings were basic but provided excellent fresh coffee to order, fresh croissant, fruit, yoghurt and cereal. Grocery store around the corner was very convenient. Antonio was very welcoming and patient with all our questions. He helped us arrange airport transfers and tours through Enjoy Sicily - small group tours w free hotel pickup, we were able to go to Etna, Alcantara Gorge and Syracuse/Ortigia. Would definitely return! Thanks for a wonderful stay at your beautiful home.

We enjoyed 3 nights at the Casa Barbero. The hotel room was large and opens onto the courtyard where we had breakfast each day. It was also lovely to have the hosts little dog Lola around for breakfast each day too. Monica and Antonio sent us very clear instructions on how to enter the hotel (codes to doors) and where to find our room keys, and then we’re also there to greet us. Antonio was an exceptional host - he responded to a few questions we had on WhatsApp before and during our stay. We parked in the Green Parking for the first night, which cost €15, and then found a space on the road outside the hotel for the second 2 nights. Once directly outisde the hotel and once just after the train track, a couple of minutes walk up the road. The road felt very safe to park on. The hotel is about a 20/30 minute walk to the centre of Catania - we were pleased to be away from the busy streets. We would definitely stay here again and thanks to Monica and Antonio for the welcoming us.

We stayed at the Casa Barbero Charme between October 18th and 22nd, 2023, and loved it. Interestingly, we arrived at Casa Barbero on October 17th as I thought I booked that night, just to find out that I didn't. There was no room available and Antonio, the owner, booked us a night in another B&B near Casa Barbero, which was very helpful. Antonio also booked an amazing Sunset trip to Etna Volcano for us, where we took gorgeous pictures. This trip is highly recommended for all Catania visitors. Overall our stay was great. We enjoyed the beautiful patio filled with lush plants and had lunches and dinners there. The breakfasts were served in the Baroque-styled dining room decorated with original art. Coffee, warm croissants, eggs, jams, fresh fruit and juices, among all other fixings. Our room was spacious and comfortable with a daily cleaning service. It was well-equipped with everything we needed; TV and airconditioner, as well as a kettle, cups, and a selection of teas and coffee. Casa Barbero is situated in a quiet area of town, with a 5-minute walk to The Botanical Garden and about a 15-20-minute walk to the main attractions at the Piazza Duomo and Dante. There was a supermarket within a short 1-2 minute walk. We kept our car in a parking called Ideal Park for $20 a night. It's a 10-minute walk from Casa Barbero. It was well worth it.

Surrounding area is typical for Italy. Walking distance from Metro or Bus. Walking distance to main tourist areas. Did not have a car and used Metro. 2 euro / day. If you are familiar with B&B's you will find this one clean, current, charming and hospitable. Normally check-ins in Italy are late afternoon but this one provides free early check-in. Phone contact with Antonio will help when checking in early.

Antonio and his staff were welcoming, kind and very helpful. Antonio booked a shuttle for us last minute which was such a big help. The property is beautiful, very clean, beds are cozy and comfortable. So lovely to wake up and sit for breakfast with a cappuccino and fresh croissant. Location was perfect because we could easily walk but yet the property and area is very quiet. The property was artistic and representative of the beautiful Sicilian culture.

Nice room for one night, but a bit musty
The owner gave me lots of information about the self check-in beforehand, so I knew exactly what to do and how to get in. Very easy and convenient. The room was nice, clean and spacious, although it was very humid and smelt a bit musty. I guess that is because the rooms face the courtyard and have no additional windows, just the door into the courtyard. There was a machine provided to improve the quality of the air. Breakfast was plenty. For one night it is certainly good.

Wonderful BnB experience.
An amazing experience. Antonio was in constant contact with us from the time of booking and could provide much information. There was a common area for making cafe Americano and using a microwave. Beautiful courtyard and dining area for breakfast (don't expect an American buffet, very continental).

Very Helpful Owners
Catania is a place I would fly to but we certainly wouldn't stay in the city again. The city is very busy and you take your life in your hands when you try to cross the main roads. The owners Monica and Antonio are very helpful and made our stay a pleasant experience. They recommended us to go on a trip to Etna with a local firm which was very enjoyable. What we found most annoying was the taxi rides. We took 6 taxi journeys and only one used the meter and the others charged us what they think they can get away with claiming the meter doesn't work!
