“Federico II offers a genuine taste of Catania, steps from Ursino Castle; I appreciate its straightforward comfort. The inclusion of kitchen facilities and family-sized rooms makes it a practical choice, especially given its proximity to the airport. It's a solid base for exploring the city's cultural heart without pretense.”
