Inn Details

La Casina is a studio apartment newly refurbished in the pulsating heart of ancient Catania, between Piazza Duomo (Cathedral Square), the historical fish market "à piscarìa" and the medieval Castello Ursino (XIII c.).
Just a step away from all the main monuments, museums, and night-life, but in perfect location to reach marvellous beaches and the mount Etna

Completely indipendent, with double access on the ground level of a quiet side-street, it is an interesting and discreet alternative to the usual Bed&Breakfast.

From its central location, it is easy and fast to reach the Airport, train station, or bus station where continuous connections can bring you to all other touristic destination in Sicily.

The flat is fully equipped with kitchen, fridge, air conditioning/heating, tv, cd/dvd/mp3/radio and wireless internet connection.
