Hotels near Catania Fontanarossa Airport - CTA, Catania

Catania is a great base for all surrounding travels! People are very friendly and almost are places are safe. Spent the extra money on the accommodations......hard to find places that don't have bed bugs or other issues!!!!

Catania is a very busy town offering many sights and dynamical lifestyle. From the early hours of the markets, to sightseeing and nightlife. It is well connected via a motorway to other sightseeing facilities like Syracuse, Etna and Taormina. Many great eating and shopping options. The only things is that there is lot of littering - and the municipal waste company is not just doing its work. If you compare it to extremely clean Taormina this can look in some parts like a garbage dumb. And the car culture and the drivers - well it is very specific :)

Catania is beautiful- seeped in history and legends streets are heavily graffitied on the ground levels , but you get used to that, and some of the grafitti is beautiful. I would recommend a tour-we did e-bike tour which was fantastic (shell travel agency) Anya was a great guide. She showed us places (cave restaurant and amphitheater) that we would never have otherwise known about. I would definatly recommend the cave restaurant- but it needs to be booked A Putia dell'Ostello is its name. we booked on the same day no problem I would definitely recommend a visit to Taormina - we went on the train- quick, easy and reasonable (£11 each return) lovely stay- lovely place- advise travel on October time for less tourists, and cooler weather

Downtown dramatically changed since I was living there years ago. At the time the "Pescheria" was a bustling place for the local community with the best fish market in Italy and lively, authentic local watering holes. Now, it's just another tourist trap where most fishermen and fresh produce stalls have been replaced with general purpose bars and restaurants, not fun anymore. You find the same things in Venice or Prague or just anywhere.

Catania Deserves More Love! Catania is definitely underrated, many travelers overlook it, but there’s so much to enjoy here. The city offers a mix of rich history, vibrant nightlife, hidden piazzas, and excellent cuisine with plenty of great places to eat. We stumbled upon wine tasting events, explored charming corners, and soaked in the local vibe. Yes, the traffic can be chaotic (even by Eastern European standards 😄), and the cleanliness could be improved - watch your step on the sidewalks! But overall, Catania has a unique energy that makes it worth visiting. I’d love to spend more time in Sicily, and Catania in particular - it really surprised me in the best way.

Majestic and historically unique city of mysterious Sicily! This very city may attract and passel your curiosity with a variety of facades, images, contrasting with a decent locals and something else. City flows with abandon roads of modern and hysterical buildings, mixing with exquisite fashion ateliers and the cutes private souvenirs’s shops. at the same time you can see that there are many baggers in the area together with the street skilled musicians and painters that are trying to just get by day by day. A mixture of feelings, perhaps, what it worth to experience together with a magical Etna and the history that still needs to be revealed.
