    Magione del Re is a wonderful little b&b. The room was very pretty and spacious and the breakfast was fresh and delicious! Ideal location to explore Catania by foot as it is close to the main streets. The staff were polite and helpful. Great stay...

We are two friends who love to travel and try to bring everything we want to find to the facility. In our work we like the discussion and contact with people, trying where we can to best satisfy the needs of our guests. We love good food and good Sicilian wine, giving suggestions where to eat or drink or simply immerse yourself in the Catania nightlife.

Property information

Magione del Re is located in the heart of the historic center of Catania, a few meters from the Duomo, from Via Etnea, the city's main artery, and from historical and cultural points of interest. Immersed in cultural vibrancy and evening city entertainment, Magione del Re offers a relaxing stay in a strategic and quiet location of the city. The structure is located within a historic building from the early 1900s. During the modernization of the rooms particular attention was paid to preservation and recovery of stucco ceilings and Sicilian majolica tiles on the floors, all come intact today. The name of each room is due to the stuccos of the ceilings.
