Our stay here was amazing we were blown away by both the condition of the property and the service we received. The great service started prior to our arrival when Davide reached out to us with various recommendations from transportation to restaurants. Upon arrival we were greeted by Davide who gave us the run down on the hotel and the area and offered more recommendations for our stay. The room and hotel itself can only be described as breathtaking, a small hotel packed with charm and history while still providing a modern feel. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we experienced perfection thank you!

A Gem in the Heart of Catania

Our stay at Palazzo Marletta Luxury House Hotel was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. Ronoto greeted us with a delightful wine tasting that set the tone for the entire experience—warm, thoughtful, and beautifully curated.

The attention to detail throughout the hotel is stunning, blending historic charm with modern luxury. Every interaction felt personal, and the accommodations were immaculate. We truly felt like honored guests rather than just visitors.

If you’re looking for a boutique stay that combines elegance, hospitality, and a touch of Sicilian magic, this is the place. We loved every moment and would return in a heartbeat.

A perfect stay in a wonderful place

Our stay at this hotel was phenomenal! Thank you to Renato and the staff for being such gracious, responsive, and generous hosts. The location of the Palazzo was perfect: right in the heart of town. The room was stunning: high-ceilinged, well-lit, and beautifully restored with an eclectic, old-but-new vibe. Our hosts would show up with cappuccinos and other necessities within minutes of the request, and their recommendations for restaurants and other sights were impeccable. We only stayed for a night, but could have spent our entire vacation at the Palazzo Marietta. Thank you all for such a wonderful stay!

Absolutely fantastic and special property. Perfectly located near most cites, right off a beautiful plaza. A special historical property with super and kind management who go out of their way to make your stay special. The rooms are super special and have historical features and significance while they have been modernized wonderfully. Run towards this property for a special experience in Catania. Loved it.

Palazzo Marletta

We would not got back to Catania. You can't escape the smoke of the people and the city is so dirty and painted with graffiti. We hid out in our room I am so glad we only stayed one night in this city as we almost had planned to stay two.

The hotel does not have an elevator to get your luggage to your room and the stairs are so small you will be scared going up and down them. We would not stay in this hotel or area again. Its a historic hotel and I can tell that they try but we were not impressed. The room we stayed in did not look like the pictures.

The minimalist check in area does not prepare you for the stunning, museum quality guest rooms, full of original antiques like a crystal chandelier and baroque moldings, with views of the central cathedral and city square. Bath products of very high quality. Staff very helpful.

Amazing hotel with history in great location

Before leaving from the US, we would have rated this hotel 5 STARS!!
Renato, Serena, Simona and the rest of the staff were amazing and answered our questions minutes after sending an email. They helped with restaurant reservations, recommended sites to visit, where to purchase a SIM card, delivery of an item we ordered, driver pickup from the airport, parking our rental car in a safe location the night before departure and coordinating our car delivery morning of departure.
The hotel has so much history and it was explained upon arrival. Location is perfect!

Palazzo Marletta is an excellent hotel with modern amenities, very comfortable and pleasant to stay in. The staff were very helpful and friendly and spoke English very well. My wife and I had a great stay. The hotel is on the edge of the main square and there are plenty of excellent restaurants, bars, cafes and shops to browse in. Hotel is only 20 mins away from the airport.
