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.

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.

What a wonderful place!

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.
