We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this apartment. The property is very well appointed and the huge terraces provided a dreamlike setting for our Catania visit. The location is perfect, the views are perfect, the furnishings are perfect, the kitchen and bathrooms are spectacular. We have rented apartments in Italy, Spain, Portugal and England but none of them were as wonderful as this one. We didn’t want to leave.

Simply, WOW!
This was an amazing property. My wife and toddler stayed here for a week. The location is fantastic and served as a convenient base for area sights. The property manager was friendly and very helpful. The place is stunning. The pictures really do not do it justice. The panoramic views from the balcony are beautiful. The penthouse is impecably decorated and very comfortable. It’s quite spacious!! The apartment offers all modern amenities and a well equipped kitchen. We cooked breakfast and several meals during our stay. There is a large local produce and fish market very close by so you can pick up fresh fruits and vegetables every day. The property manager left us delicious local treats and a bottle of water, which was extremely thoughtful. We highly recommend this place. Your stay will be comfortable and memorable. The only negative aspect of the property is that the bathroom faucets and cabinetry has sharp edges. The air conditioning in some rooms took a long time to cool. But these are easy to overlook. The nearby restaurants are so-so.

Thanks for the lovely feedback. It was a pleasure to welcome you and hope to see you again soon!
Die Wohnung ist super, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und mit absolut spektakulärer Aussicht von der riesigen Dachterrasse auf die Kathedrale, den Piazza Duomo und den Etna. Man kann von der Wohnung problemlos alles fußläufig erreichen und ein überwachter, öffentlicher Parkplatz (Borsellino) ist in ca. 3 min entfernt verfügbar.
Die Betreuung durch Oxana war sehr nett mit guten Tipps für den Aufenthalt in Catania.

Thanks Alexa for the lovely feedback. We are so happy to hear that Penthouse Duomo was your perfect home away from home. It was a pleasure to have you as a guest!
The apartment is absolutely amazing. It is worth the price. It is well maintained, clean, comfortable and has plenty of amenities. It was great for our 2 young kids. We loved sitting on the terrace overlooking the square and people watching. Parking is limited because it is located on the square. So we took a cab coming in and out so we didn’t have to haul our luggage far. There is an elevator in the building to bring up luggage to the top floor where the apartment is located.
We were 2 couples who were travelling around Sicily. We spent 5 nights in this wonderful penthouse apartment. There was a huge, L-shaped terrace overlooking the Piazza del Duomo with panoramic views in all directions, including a view of Mt. Etna. The apartment itself was large and beautifully decorated. The two bedrooms plus the livingroom had direct access to the terrace. The well-stocked kitchen which was up a flight of stairs, had its own terrace as well. Although this apartment was not inexpensive, it was certainly well worth the cost. We highly recommend it.
