Great stay at Hotel La Palma
Wonderful hotel! We were given a warm welcome by Giovanna. Spacious and clean room, nicely furnished. A green and pleasant garden to relax in was like an oasis of tranquility. The on site parking was a bonus. Owner Alessandro is friendly, helpful and informative - His team worked hard to maintain high standards. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Usædvanlig god service! Vi havde brug for overnatning efter receptionens åbning (fly aflysning). Det gav ingen problemer. Alt blev løst og personalets hjælpsomhed var meget stor! Tak

Ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo
Camera grandissima, con balcone privato, antibagno con un piccolo frigo e bagno in camera piccolo ma pratico. L’unico piccolo neo è il Wi-Fi che non prende quasi per niente. Dev’essere un problema della stanza 3. Per tutto il resto è stata un’ottima esperienza.

Massimo, Mario, Carmen and Maria Angela! :)
If you want to experience the real Sicilian lifestyle, Hotel La Palma is thé place to be. The staff, Massimo, Mario, Carmen and Maria Angela make you feel home from the moment you arrive. They advice you the best touristic and non-touristic (eg fresh daily market in central Catania) places and everything you need they will provide it. Their positivism and smiles make your day a day in paradise. Every night it felt like coming home. To this staff we want to say : Thank you for learning us how to make real Sicilian fish and awesome Bruscetta! Thank you for all your kindness, your honesty, and so many laughters! Thank you for a magical week and showing us the beautiful Sicilian lifestyle! If we come back to Hotel La Palma (which we really hope to do soon) it will be only to see back our dearest Massimo, Mario, Carmen and Maria Angela! We travel a lot but never have seen a staff that works so devoted and with such a big heart! In the meanwhile, we already miss you!

NO GRAZIE
Prenotato on linee su di Expedia moltissimo tempo prima di andarci. Mai ricevuto conferma della prenotazione se fosse andata a buon fine, come fanno tutti gli hotel "normali" Mi chiamano telefonicamente il giorno in cui avrei dovuto soggiornare per chiedere se ci andavo, ma ovviamente dopo aver cercato tempo addietro se l'hotel era confermato o meno senza aver avuto mai una risposto, avevo prenotato da altra parte. Ebbene, si sono trattenuti l'importo della prenotazione dalla carta ed alla mia manifestazione di contrarietà di tale operazione (fatta via mail.....) non ho ottenuto nessuna risposta. D'altronde non rispondo quando prenoti figurati se vuoi indietro i tuoi soldi

Sakin küçük bir otel
Otel şehrin merkezinin dışında, sakin bir mahallede bulunuyor. Eski bir binada bulunan otelde çalışanlar çok nazik ve ilgili. Ancak zaman zaman lisan problemi oluyor. Odalar geniş ve balkonlu. Kahvaltı servisi mükemmel.
