Bed and Breakfast Amenano - Catania
Via Bicocca 24 - Catania
877-662-6988Is situated on the second floor of an elegant and historical building built in the 700's by a noble family. Therefore, the 'palazzo' itself is considered to be a building of historical and architectural value.
Nightlife, known as 'Movida Catanese' is located a few meters away from our B&B with a many 'Caffe Concerto' and other typical local coffee shops specializing in delicious local pastries, pubs, restaurants, sidewalk café's, tavola calda and many other popular meeting places. By day, one can visit the most important monuments that the city has to offer including the Duomo, the Greco-Roman Theatre, the Amenano Fountain, La Pescheria (a historical and folkloristic fish market) the historical Palazzo dell'Universita, Via Crociferi, Via Etnea (the main shopping street) and everything else that normally can be found in the heart of a City like Catania. All this and more (including the very large daily open-air market) are within walking distance of our B&B.
Amenano B&B is certainly the best located lodging place to suite and cater for every visitor's needs and for them to conveniently see all that the city of Catania has to offer. From its strategic and central location visitors can easily reach the beaches, the mountains (Mount Etna), the railway station, bus terminus, the seaport, airport - all of which can be reached in a short time even by public transport.

The only think is about noise , during the day because there were works in the building and in the evening because there is a pub close to the hotel(music until 2 a.m) but the location is good (Duomo, university and that's very interesting)

We stayed in ROSSO CORALLO B&B because there was a problem with some work that had to be carried out on the Amenano B&B. Rosso Corallo belongs to the same owners. The accommodation was very ample and tastefully furnished and the owners very nice. One thing to bear in mind though is that the ceilings are rather low and not apt for anybody very tall (over 1.75 m) and also, although the B&B has obviously been refurbished recently, there seems to be some type of plumbing problem which caused bad odour in the bathroom.
Room Details
The Amenano B&B has been recently renovated by its owner, an Architect by profession, who, while maintaining the elegance of its historical structure, has inserted a touch of modernization and convenience. He has managed to develop an elegant ambiance by utilizing the available vertical space by creating a loft in every room. Departing from the traditional B&B's, every room is a mini apartment, totally independent from the rest of the building, and developed on two levels by way of an internal staircase. These mini apartments can accommodate up to four persons, two of whom are accommodated in the spacious loft area. Each room has a balcony overlooking typical historic center streets, leading up to the Via Etnea and the Palazzo degli Elefanti, and surrounded by beautiful baroque buildings. Each room has been developed to provide maximum comfort. Each mini apartment has its own full private bathroom, mini bar, TV, air conditioner, direct Internet ADSL access and elegantly furnished. Although the B&B is located in the center of town, all rooms are spacious and airy with a quiet and serene atmosphere where one can relax in tranquility. Maximum hygiene and cleanliness are guaranteed - all rooms are cleaned on a daily basis and linen (sheets and towels) are also changed daily.Amenano B&B offers its guests an impeccable service. The B&B is maintained to the highest quality and no detail has been left out in order to blend the modern with the traditional. Our aim is to assist you in every way we can in order to make your holiday as nice and as special as possible. Apart from offering you our hospitality and warmth, we would be happy to offer you suggestions and directions as to what to see here in Catania and what other places you should visit on our beautiful island of Sicily.Whilst looking forward to your arrival, there is nothing left except to wish you a Happy Holiday.
