Catania - Degli Elefanti Hostel B&B Catania
About the place
Our hostel is located in a 17th Century palace, one of the oldest in town. The stunning ceiling frescoes are famous throughout Catania.
Enjoy the luxurious surroundings created for a noble family centuries ago.
Not only is the hostel between two of the most important squares in Catania, but it is also close to exceptional food experiences, bars and Catania's thriving nightlife.
Our rooftop bar has a breathtaking view over the old city and Mount Etna.
Superfast Wifi is available throughout the hostel. There is no hostel in Catania more centrally located than the Ostello Degli Elefanti. You can easily Show more Show Less
Events here tend to emerge organically. People mingle over breakfast, in the social areas, or on our rooftop.
Guests often choose to take trips to Etna together - we can help you organise these at discounted rates - or to go to one of the nearby beaches, or seaside resorts, or head to nearby Siracusa or Taormina, or...the list is endless.
The city is photogenic, crammed with hidden corners, surprises and discoveries awaiting you.
