    Host Pippo was very kind and helpful, he gave us a lot of recommendation about Catania and what to visit, where to eat. Breakfast was ok. The apartment where we stayed was very charming in an old bulding in the city center.

    B&B Chapo is inviting and stylish. Pippo, the host is an absolute gem. I recommend following his advice. I love live music and found a great little Irish pub with live music nearby.

    The apartment was spotless and well-organized, located just a few minutes’ walk from all the main attractions. But what truly made our stay exceptional was Pippo’s warm and helpful attitude. He welcomed us with genuine Italian hospitality, gave us great tips, a city map, and fantastic restaurant recommendations. We felt truly cared for – thank you, Pippo! 😊

    Lots of stairs so not for anyone with poor mobility. I understand a lift will be operational any minute so not an issue then.

    Great position, seconds away from major piazza. Also no cars passing so quiet. Eclectic furnishings which made it memorable, lots of room.

    There’s nothing we can really complain about. Everything was well taken care of, and our stay was smooth, comfortable, and enjoyable from start to finish!

    Chapo's B&B exceeded expectations! The location is perfect—just steps from the theatre and its square, yet on a quiet street. Everything is in walking distance! The room was very comfortable (2x single person bed), with a small balcony and a well-equipped private bathroom (multiple towels/change provided). Beppe, the host, was incredibly welcoming, providing local tips, arranging dinner, and even offering first aid when needed. He ensured a smooth check-in, even though we arrived late at night, and took the time to personally highlight the best spots in town on a map. His attention to detail, from breakfast preparations to making sure we had everything we needed, made the stay extra special. The theatre-themed decor added a unique charm. Breakfast was thoughtfully prepared the night before and left outside the door, with delicious options. Plus, the coffee machine in the common area was a great touch!

    Here’s a glowing review for the second B&B: Our three-night stay at this B&B was absolutely unforgettable! Located right in the heart of the historic center, the property is perfectly situated for exploring the area. The room was beautifully decorated in a charming old-style while being incredibly comfortable—a perfect blend of character and coziness. The host was exceptional, treating us like family and ensuring every detail of our stay was perfect. The breakfasts were abundant and absolutely delicious, providing the perfect start to each day. The host was always available and eager to assist with anything we needed, making us feel so welcomed and cared for. This B&B truly exceeded all expectations, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

    There are absolutely no downsides to this place.

    We stayed at B&B Chapo for three days as a couple, and our experience was absolutely amazing. The place was spotless, neat, and incredibly well-maintained. The host, Giuseppe, is undoubtedly one of the kindest and most exceptional hosts we have ever encountered—and we’ve traveled extensively! From the very beginning, Giuseppe made us feel incredibly welcome, preparing a beautiful check-in experience. He took the time to show us around, explain everything, and even helped us book some stunning local attractions. Although I won’t go into detail about the extra gestures we received (to avoid creating expectations for others), I will say this: where others might charge extra, Giuseppe didn’t even mention it. We genuinely felt like royalty during our stay. The breakfasts were fresh and delicious, offering both sweet and savory options. On top of that, we were surprised with some wonderful local homemade treats that added a personal touch to our mornings. The location of the property is ideal, making it the perfect base to explore the beauty of Sicily. We can’t wait to come back! If you’re visiting Sicily, staying at B&B Chapo is a must. Thank you, Giuseppe, for an unforgettable experience!

    Everything was cool, the stairs to the property on the 3rd floor a bit of a challenge, but they’re about 80% forward in building a new elevator in the property courtyard.

    The room is very comfortable, plenty of room for luggage and a nice sized refrigerator for water and drinks. Breakfast was served every evening on a trolley (for the morning of course) croissant, jam, butter, fruit, juice. Coffee and tea facilities in the lobby of the property. Bathroom is fine but a bit cramped. Location is fantastic, pedestrian street near the opera house and 5 minute walk to the duomo.

    Located in the heart of Catania, next to the main theater, you will find the apartment of Pippo, B&B Chapo. The apartment itself is clean, located in the city center and it is not your boring everyday B&B. This apartment has a character and you learn that from the very moment you enter the apartment. What a cosy place to stay! The apartment has everything you need. The host, Pippo, is the most welcoming host that I’ve ever met in my life. Helps you with parking, with guides, with places to eat and drink, places to visit and to avoid in Catania…just amazing. The breakfast is excellent, catered to your needs (if you have dietary restrictions). Thank you Pippo for everything. Hope to see you again soon! Take care :)
