We really enjoyed our stay at Roby's boutique rooms. Domenico and Antonella were incredibly nice people and great hosts. You can tell they take pride in their business - both in the character of the rooms and hospitality. It was a much better experience in Catania than if we would have stayed at a hotel chain.

That place is a hidden gem with super lovely, attentive and caring hosts. The place itself is perfectly located near to the city center and everything such as sightseeing, shops restaurants are in walking distance. The rooms are decorated with passion and making you feel home very quick. The sweets and even more the super career and caring couple running that place made my stay just perfect. It was my pleasure to be their first guest through Expedia/hotels.com. Mille Grazie!!!

“I absolutely loved my stay at Robbie’s Boutique At first, I thought it was just a hotel, but it turned out to be a beautifully renovated historic palazzo, full of charm and character. The place is spotless, and the owners are truly exceptional — warm, attentive, and welcoming. Breakfast was simply amazing, prepared with such care and dedication. I arrived late and still received wonderful service, which made me feel right at home. Highly recommend this boutique gem in Catania for anyone looking for an authentic and delightful experience!”

Beautiful stay in central Catania

Excellent stay- the hosts were absolutely delightful. The place has been beautifully renovated with love and attention to detail. We were made to feel at home but without a the hosts being intrusive. The room was deceptive- huge with the highest ceilings- like staying in a grand pallazo. The only thing to note is that it is on a high floor- the lift was very welcome but just be aware if you suffer from vertigo that you are high up, and the stairs are a bit daunting. The breakfast was outstanding, and the communal area with snacks and drinks 24/7 was a wonderful touch. Highly recommend!

I have traveled the world and stayed in many hotels, Roby’s was one of my absolute favorites. I am very picky and extremely clean, so I am often disappointed but Roby’s rooms were immaculately clean. I was impressed. The breakfast they prepared was fresh and delicious. They were so warm and welcoming. I was sad to check out, I would be happy to have stayed much longer. I’ll absolutely be back!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at a charming Ruby’s boutique rooms, and I can't recommend it highly enough. From the moment I arrived, the host made me feel right at home with their warm welcome and genuine hospitality. The accommodations were tastefully decorated and incredibly comfortable, providing a cozy retreat after a day of exploration. Breakfast was a delightful experience, featuring a variety of delicious homemade options that catered to all tastes. The dining area was inviting, and it was a joy to share conversations with other guests over freshly brewed coffee. The location was perfect, just a short walk from local attractions while still offering a quiet atmosphere. The host was not only knowledgeable about the area but also went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was enjoyable. Their attention to detail and personal touches really set this bed and breakfast apart. Overall, my experience was wonderful. If you're looking for a welcoming place to stay, this bed and breakfast is a must-visit!
