Al Duomo Inn, great place to stay

We had four lovely days in Al Duomo Inn, it has a perfect location close to many things by foot, very good price. Max is a super helpful host, and I can only recommend the place, it is a little place so Max is not there all the time, but the you just call him, he speaks very good english and he will help you. I will stay there the next time I visit Catania. We had a nice room with a little balcony with a view to the Duomo square, Astrid and Jens

This B&B may be considered by some as not visually appealing. But this opinion is soon replaced when one enjoys extreme cleanliness, the availability of the necessary products, and the exquisite attention from the host, Tiziana. Furthermore, the location is excellent.

This was a perfect location, less than a 5 minute walk to historical sites, restaurants, shopping, vending machines, the fish market, etc. Max gave helpful information about local sites and restaurants. On-street parking and a parking lot were both within walking distance. The building and room were older but the location more than made up for that.

Catania energy and vibe on your doorstep/balcony

What an amazing 2 days we had in the Al Duomo. It's literally in the heart of Catania and you can feel the vibe and rawness right from your balcony. But you can shut it out when you want to sleep! Our host Max was wonderful, giving us all the tourist tips and info we needed and loved the 4 euro breakfast deal he had done with the cafe round the corner. Will definitely be back.

The proprietors of Al Duomo run their small inn as a “vocation” in almost a religious sense, with an exceptional dedication to their guests’ wellbeing. The rooms are impeccably clean, and Max goes way beyond what one normally expects to ensure that your entire experience in Catania goes as planned. Given the unexpected nature of international travel, Al Duomo offers more than just a room. It provides a great sense of orientation for getting on with the trip while making the most of Catania. Its central location with great street life and food makes for a very good stay.

This is a great location for exploring Catania. Steps from so many great Catania sites. Clean and tidy. Highly recommended. Our hosts were terrific and answered all our questions and helped with reservations. The only comment is the place is branded as a "B&B", but they no longer provide breakfast. They did offer a voucher (for a fee) for a nearby cafe.
