“Hotel Centrum has a prime spot for exploring Catania on foot, especially the Massimo Bellini Theatre and Piazza Duomo. Though the hotel has a vintage charm, some aspects, like the narrow lift, might not suit every traveler. I appreciate that the hotel provides a breakfast buffet with gluten-free options, a detail reflecting their attention to guest needs.”
