Great choice. Sea view from the balcony. Availability in the room of coffee, tea, sweets, etc. and excellent bottle of red. In 10 minutes on foot you can reach the center of Catania. On the waterfront street, it's easy to find parking without expenses.

Very nice, modern and comfortable structure located in a strategic position, a 10-minute walk from the center and 5 from the station (excellent for connections to the airport and for any excursions). Breakfast in the room with packaged products and a coffee/cappuccino machine. Kind and caring host. Highly recommended!

Pleasant stay. Good Air conditioning and facilities. The large bed makes it a bit tricky to move around on one side but the location is great to reach the center where everything is. Bar downstairs with also a shoe shop open late. Good restaurant opposite open late. Antonella is lovely and helpful.

It is a beautiful naval-themed bed and breakfast located in a quiet building. The modern room is not very large but with well-organized spaces, aesthetically very curated, with new fixtures that isolate external noise very well. Very comfortable mattress. New spacious bathroom with window and large shower. Terrace with comfortable outdoor table and chairs. Very clean, with everything needed for personal care. Antonella is very welcoming and helpful. The location is close to the sea and a 5-minute walk from the main street. Parking is public and paid, we had no trouble finding it.

The location is great with respect to the great sites Catania has to offer. Catania is a busy city, not the cleanest, and a bit chaotic. The apartments are just a few blocks away from the cathedral, Bellini theater, fish market, etc. But if you go out at night, along the Via VI Aprile, you'll see a pretty seedy side of town. The apartment I rented was clean, modern, and spacious. All great. Breakfast is served at the Gelateria Pellegrino and includes coffee and a pastry of your choice. The place is great also if you want to buy antipasto and dine at your place for a change. The host Antonella was great. She arranged for a private round-trip transfer to Taormina. The driver was friendly and drove us around Taormina before dropping us off. The apartment is also across the street from the train station and only 15 minutes from Catania airport. All in all a great experience. I will recommend the B&B to anyone going to Catania.

I was received very kindly by Antonella. Check-in was very easy, even though I was there a few hours earlier. The room is on the 7th floor of a high-rise building. The room and shower were clean and new. The distance to the train station and metro is very short, and to the city center is a bit further. Breakfast at a nearby bar was very good. I would like to visit the B&B Oblò again.

Possibility to park in the white zone, very modern hotel, spacious room, very convenient location to visit Catania. The only downside is the breakfast taken in a cafe below the building, of poor quality. Excellent stay.

Oblò was an excellent choice for our stay in Catania. Very close to the beautiful city center, Oblò was comfortable, clean, and very well organized. Antonella, very kind and helpful, was an excellent host. We highly recommend it.

This B&B has it all, a short walk to the city center while having a view of the sea and Port of Catania. The rooms are located on an upper floor of a palazzo, you can walk out from the main door and walk to most everything in Catania. The rooms are new and equipped with anything you could need. The hosts are super friendly and do anything to make your stay the best it can be. They offer a breakfast in the morning that is delicious (with a view!). Overall, it's a great place.
