Hotels Near Lido Excelsior in Catania

We were very welcome, we arrived well before check-in, but we could leave our baggage that were then raised in our room. The receptionist, very kind and friendly, gave us a Catane plan and gave us good advice to walk and for the restaurants. The hotel has a design decoration and the majesty of the old palace. We have been very well sleeping because the street is relatively quiet and there is a very good double glass. Breakfast is very expensive, served as a buffet in a pleasant room. We enjoyed having fresh fruits, among other things. At our departure we could leave our luggage at the hotel to walk quietly in Catane, with our plane being in the evening. The hotel is very comfortable and comfortable and is very comfortable.

We last stayed here 4 years ago for one night before our flight home the following day. We decided to do the same again this year and our stay was once again very good. Our room was overlooking the courtyard which was absolutely fine. It was spacious with a really nice bathroom and comfortable bed. The key card entry system to get into the room once again foxed us for a few minutes. We visited the roof top bar for a drink after eating out and were surprised at how quiet it was, I guess the hospitality industry is still suffering to some extent. This really is a fabulous spot and we very much enjoyed our drink. We payed extra for our breakfast to enjoy the view of Etna, which undoubtable is lovely. The last time we stayed we were offered table service and a great selection of hot food this time it was a self service buffet, there was a good choice and some hot options, however a little pricy. You clearly are paying extra for the view. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend. When we are next in Sicily we will definitely return.

A really great, clean hotel… can only be recommended, an excellent restaurant nearby… looking forward to another visit…

It was very nice and the decoration and Furniture was very antique and nice. The rooms were nice and had clean sheets and Two TV’s. The bathroom as well was very clean and nice although there was no toothbrush holder. Besides the rooms the Hotel had amazing breakfast service and very clean nice courtyards and a Poll and Scuba diving, They also have a Spa and restaurant. An Overall amazing Hotel, The only downside was the location being far from the City but with horrible Traffic inside the city it was nice to be a little bit away from the city center.

The hotel transferred by bus is far from the airport. Clean, the surrounding environment is very good, there is a restaurant on the first floor, and there is a swimming pool on the top floor, but it is not open because of the epidemic. The front desk will be in English.

large room, plenty of space where we didn't feel cramped. large bath which was great. nice sheets and towels. a pleasant location right on the ocean. a bit noisy but not bad. friendly front desk. make sure you see all the sites you can -- Mt. Etna.

The hotel is on a hillside, and most rooms with pool views have sea views, but they cannot reach the seaside. The room is relatively spacious, the bed is moderately soft and hard, the bedding quality is good, the bathroom is separated from wet and dry areas, and the electric sunshade on the balcony is very good. The breakfast is quite satisfactory, with a reasonable mix of salty and sweet. There are two pizza shops just outside the hotel door. One of them is very noisy because locals sing karaoke every night. The other pizza shop looks like a dessert shop and is of good quality. There is also a small supermarket. It closes early. The highlight of the hotel is the swimming pool, a small circular swimming pool with a depth of 4 meters. It is quite interesting to practice diving. The disadvantage of the hotel is that on the terrace opposite the main building, the music is a bit loud every night. You can hear it even if you close the balcony door, and it is not turned off until around 11:30, which affects your sleep.

What I liked: - The hotel boasts two lovely pools. - The on-site restaurant serves some of the best food I've had in the area, though it is pricey. - Breakfast is simple yet delicious, featuring eggs, frankfurts, bacon, cheese, pastries, fruit, juices, and wonderful coffee. - You are allowed to enjoy drinks by the pool. - 90% of the staff were extremely friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. - Free parking is available on site. What I disliked: - The room's air conditioning was not adjustable and only blew in one direction, making both the bathroom and bedroom uncomfortably warm. - I had to sleep on the pullout sofa as the bedroom was too hot. Thankfully, the sofa was available; otherwise, I don't know what I would have done. - The spa seemed expensive for a hot tub and sauna, so I didn't use it and can't comment on its quality. - There is an incredible rooftop with views of the bay and Mt. Etna that goes unused, which feels like a wasted space. - The location is very remote, situated in a residential area with nothing within walking distance except for two restaurants and a golf club affiliated with the hotel. - While you can walk to the bay, there are no pathways and the return trip is steep and uphill. - The hotel provides taxis, but they are quite costly. - There is an extra charge to use the kitchenette, which was not communicated beforehand. Additionally, no tea or coffee replacements were provided, which is unusual for a hotel of this caliber. **Tips:** - If you are checking in past 10:30 PM, be sure to call the hotel to ensure someone will be available to check you in. - Renting a car is essential for getting around, as without one, your travel options will be limited and expensive. - This hotel is perfect if you want to relax by the pool and do occasional excursions. However, if you're looking for more activities, you may find the location too remote.

Comfortable big rooms, away from the centre, as I wanted, it was quiet and very relaxing after the long days we had. The breakfast was tasty and the variety satisfying. It was clean, rooms and all the areas of it. Personel was really polite and willing to help us find restaurants, places, info about Sicily. Our room had an amazing view of Etna! A local restaurant is right next to the hotel -2min walk, which is a plus for the hotel. I definately suggest it if you have a car.
