Miramare

The hotel is quite worn, but clean. Beds reasonably comfortable, water in the shower warm, etc. Do not expect much from breakfast. Located outside the city on a thoroughfare, there's not much places to eat, but we were concerned about parking and proximity to the airport - it is indeed a few minutes drive. Definitely on the plus side - friendly service at the reception.

Stayed because close to airport, however was 2 bus rides to terminal or €22 taxi ride. Air con not effective very little sleep. Also barking dog in adjacent room. Restaurant overpriced. No facilities nearby. ‘Private beach’ is shared with very run down unfriendly butlins type operation across a main road. Good for business travellers with own transport, avoid for vacation or airport

Had a good stay with a nuce cafe next door and gas station for convenience. Near the Catania airport.

Stayed here so we would be close to the airport as we had an early morning flight. Staff was great, good service and friendly. The restaurant was excellent. Close to the sea and beach. Older hotel, but everything we needed for one night. Bed was a little hard and there were some noisy guests but that can be expected. Would stay here again.

We visited the Hotel Miramare in Catania on the winter season. The area is near beach what is shielded by other resorts so entering the beaches can be troublesome. Also we noticed lot of clubs in the beach area what might indicate rich (noisy) nightlife during the season. There is a gas station and small bakery next to the hotel where you can get late or early snack 24/7. Take off and landing planes will make noise as the hotel is almost at the start of a runway. Even though this is near the airport, you will need to go all the way around through Catania to enter the airport. Hotel breakfast was served from 9am and it was not possible to get it earlier, so consider this if you book this for your early flight.

Hotel seems to be close to the AIRPORT but it is NOT! Only way to the airport is same distance as from city center. No reason to stay there....

The hotel is very clean however the condition is out of date alike 80s vintage house. Location is quite far from the airport and have to take a taxi in order to get there. Find other places to stay if you wish for comfort.

Only 10 minutes from airport so convenient for late night flight. Basic but great for overnight stay. Clean and comfortable. Breakfast fine. Pizzeria next door open late and was a good find.

Nice friendly staff , close to the beach, gas station and a restaurant next to it , parking available , breakfast available at 5 euros

First the positives: clean hotel, friendly staff and excellent dining room (one of the beat seafood meals of our trip to Sicily.) Negatives: 21€ taxi to airport (no shuttle) and a dodgy, dirty neighbourhood (located just past what apears to be a jail.) Probably would have cancelled and stayed in Central Catania, but hotel's cancellation policy prevented that. We had adjoining rooms that were clean and comfortable.
