We enjoyed a very comfortable stay here. Antonio helpfully arranged transport from the airport. Via Caronda was rather shabby but we never felt unsafe in the area - Via Etnea was just around the corner with buses to the city centre and a useful 24 hour coffee kiosk/bar on the corner of the square. Our room was clean and comfortable with good air-conditioning and a small fridge. The garden was lovely to sit and unwind before heading out to one of the nearby restaurants and to enjoy breakfast. Would stay again.

As we entered the property, the place was completely dark. We had to fumble through to find the light switch. The room itself was clean enough. However, the area was very dirty and felt unsafe. The property was too far from the center, 30 mins walk. The host seemed distant and not welcoming. We needed to check out early. He didn’t even bother to ask if needed breakfast to go, which wasn’t even worth it. Few pieces of individually wrapped pastries, yogurt, and hard boiled eggs wasn’t what I was expecting.

Comfortable and welcoming city accommodation

Very comfortable and welcoming accommodation. Great information and assistance from Antonio - thank you. A good location, within walking distance of the city centre (about 1.6km), and with some good local bars and restaurants closer to hand as well.

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.

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.
