Our host was welcoming and provided us with a map of the city and gave us lots of really good recommendations for restaurants, cafes and other must see attractions. She is a local so this knowledge was invaluable! The hotel itself was beautifully decorated and clean. We were there for four days and the room was refreshed each day. There is free coffee and bottled water downstairs available to guests. Location wise, it's right next to the main tourist street of the city so is perfectly positioned to easily get around. Value for money was great too. We'd happily visit again, thank you so much!

The room was so small that the luggage could not be properly accommodated. It was located on the ground floor directly on a busy street. I would not go back there again.

We were very well received by Béatrice, who was available from our arrival. She gave us good advice for visits, restaurant choices... The bed and breakfast is very well located in the center of Catania. The room is new and nicely decorated. We had a good stay at Opera Boutique.

Brand new facility, with a pleasing design, clean, very central. Beatrice is exceptionally helpful, before arrival, during the stay and after departure. If I have to find a small area for improvement, it's the soundproofing of the room. This is the first time I am reviewing a facility despite traveling a lot, but this time I couldn't help it. I recommend it without any doubt.
