We had a very comfortable 2 day stay in the cosy Bianca B&B. The location is very convenient, only a few blocks from the Duomo and walking distance to most things. Maria Christina and Francesco were delightful hosts. Good value for money.

Good address in the city center, in a colorful and pleasant decor. All interesting points to visit easily accessible on foot. Beautiful view over the city roofs. The rooms at the back are quieter. Rich and excellent breakfast. Owners providing good advice.

Very nice host couple with good tips. Room large and bright. The plaster is peeling from the ceiling. Hallway and access to the room very dark. Unusually varied breakfast for Italian standards. Very close to the center. Good place to discover Catania.

Top accommodation with excellent hosts Francesco and MariaCristina in the center of Catania. Everything within walking distance. Cathedral, Via Etnea (shopping street) Via Bellini. Also the fish, vegetable and fruit market and much more. The apartment is very nicely furnished, great breakfast, nothing is missing. Again to mention the super friendliness and charm of MariaCristina and Francesco. Francesco. A lost earring from my wife was sent to us in Germany. Mille Grazie. Parking spaces nearby.

We went with children and it turned out to be a perfect, beautiful place, with a wonderful treatment. We had a serious problem upon arrival in Sicily with the car rental (with Avis) and the owner of the B&B, Lea, went above and beyond for us and quickly found us a good solution when it seemed like our tour of the island was falling apart. She made a lot of calls until she found a solution. A thousand thanks Lea and Francesco from Spain!

The B&B Bianca is located in an exceptional position, right in the center and very close to the bus terminal. Francesco and Maria Cristina are fantastic, they made us feel at home. Every morning they pampered us with a wonderful breakfast rich in local products and provided us with excellent advice on Catania and its surroundings. We will definitely come back!

The property is located inside a historic house decorated with baroque bas-reliefs and just a few steps from the center, so the location is perfect for visiting the most significant points of Catania on foot. The room is comfortable, tastefully furnished, and spotlessly clean. The hosts Francesco and Maria Cristina are exquisite: kind, hospitable, and always available. They treated us with typical snacks from the region. We felt very well and if we were to return to Catania, we would definitely choose the B&B Bianca again.

We stayed at the Bianca B&B at the end of September 2023. The location is excellent, convenient coming from the airport and not far from the train station, and above all a stone's throw from the historic center. The only downside is the traffic noise, which can be avoided by closing the windows and turning on the air conditioning. The room is beautiful and spacious. The managers are helpful and provide a lot of information. Great breakfast. Highly recommended.

Francesco and Cristina are two nice young people who manage the property in a way that makes the guest feel at home! They are attentive, always available and very kind. The Bianca B&B is centrally located and well connected to transportation to visit the surroundings. On foot, you can easily reach the historical and artistic places of interest. Beautiful week spent in August. I will gladly return.

Very nice property, Francesco and Mariacristina were very friendly and welcoming. Francesco was particularly helpful. He served breakfast at a very early morning time, which was very prohibitive, since we had a flight at 06.55. I will definitely stay there again. Thank you very much to Francesco and Mariacristina.

My rating is 10 because there is no higher rating. The room was perfect and spacious, the breakfast super magnificent, abundant and varied. The location is central for visiting the city but also for public transport and airport connections. The hosts are nice and welcoming and provided me with excellent advice for everything, the visits and the restaurants. Thank you guys and good luck with your work.

Perfect reception and a lot of cordiality, human warmth. Room with the atmosphere of a 'lived-in' home with notes of design mixed with classic furniture. Carefully prepared breakfast with an exciting view of the facade of a historic and important church in Catania. Exceptional location right in the center, steps away from the cathedral and the city's main attractions.

Charming hosts, with whom you will be the most beloved and desired guest! The hostess speaks German - for me, it was just luck, as it was difficult for me to communicate in other languages. The breakfast is beyond all praise - there will be so much food on your table that you will hardly be able to eat it all. But be prepared for the fact that the house is very old. Although the B&B hosts did everything possible for you to feel this less.
