The guestrooms at 5 Balconi were absolutely amazing! The beds were so comfy, I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud. And having air conditioning in the room was a lifesaver during the hot summer days. Plus, the free WiFi was really fast, and we always had free newspapers to read. It felt like a home away from home!
Shared bathrooms were not my cup of tea, but I understand that some people might not mind.

Boutique hotel, it offers PARTICULARLY NICE breakfast and nice and beautiful rooms. The staff is amiable and super-friendly as well as property's host. It offers magnificent, good location. 5.6e+02 mi away there is L'etoile D'or, serving quick meals. The hotel has got a great restaurant. When I am in Catania, I like staying here.

Cristina, the amazing host, instantly put me at ease and made me feel welcome. The location was perfect for exploring the city, with easy access to transportation and attractions. The spotlessly clean and charming rooms provided a comfortable stay. The breakfast, with its variety and delicious homemade treats, was a delightful start to the day. Cristina's recommendations were spot on and made my trip unforgettable. The kindness and attentiveness of the hosts exceeded my expectations. I cannot recommend this place enough!

The Italian-style breakfast was a glorious carb-fest! They even let me request savoury items, making me feel like a spoiled diva. Loved the shared lounge, perfect for people-watching. The location was great, with stunning natural beauty nearby and a charming castle to admire.
Oh, I absolutely despised the fact that I had to let them know my arrival time in advance! How dare they care about my punctuality!

Lots of delicious and lovely breakfast items to choose from. Marvellous location for our visit to a 13th-century castle at a moderate distance from the hotel.

The rooms at 5 Balconi were cozy and comfortable, with premium bedding and air conditioning. I loved the free WiFi, perfect for keeping in touch with friends and family. The shared bathrooms were clean and well-maintained, with a nice shower and complimentary toiletries. As a laid-back traveler, I really enjoyed my stay here.
Subjectively, I would have preferred to have a private bathroom. However, I understand that some guests may not mind the shared facilities and still find them convenient.

I recently stayed at a superb hotel in Catania for a few days. The spacious rooms with high ceilings made me feel like I was in a movie, and the hotel's location, just a few minutes walk from the main Fish Market, was perfect. The free parking along the street was also very useful since we had a car. The breakfast included in the stay was superb, with a great selection to choose from. I had a fantastic experience and would definitely stay here again.
Would definitely recommend this hotel.

The room was cozy and clean, and the bed was very comfortable. We loved the delicious breakfast options, especially the fresh croissants and yogurt with fruit. The location was great, as we were able to easily walk to all the main attractions and restaurants in the area.
The noise from the traffic, especially the constant honking of motorbikes, was quite loud and went on until late at night. It did make it a bit difficult to sleep peacefully during our romantic escape.
