Photos do not match the rooms. Outdated, cracked walls, beds are very old and can feel the shape where people have been sleeping for years. Fridge barely works and needs a chain to keep closed. Rooster, dogs barking and planes all night.

OK for the last night stay before departure flight
The hotel is quite worn, but clean. Beds reasonably comfortable, water in the shower warm, etc. Do not expect much from breakfast. Located outside the city on a thoroughfare, there's not much places to eat, but we were concerned about parking and proximity to the airport - it is indeed a few minutes drive. Definitely on the plus side - friendly service at the reception.

No water in the hotel in the evening. Poor air conditioning. Beware of restaurant… found aluminum foil in the pasta and not so much as an apology. Wine listed on the menu was not stocked. Substitute lauded as good and local was awful. The receptionist was the only breath if fresh air. Stay away!

Honestly I expected a better and cleaner room given the price we paid. Including breakfast a 100 euro stay calls for a better service and level of cleanliness.

Pet friendly
Stayed because close to airport, however was 2 bus rides to terminal or €22 taxi ride. Air con not effective very little sleep. Also barking dog in adjacent room. Restaurant overpriced. No facilities nearby. ‘Private beach’ is shared with very run down unfriendly butlins type operation across a main road. Good for business travellers with own transport, avoid for vacation or airport

First the positives: clean hotel, friendly staff and excellent dining room (one of the beat seafood meals of our trip to Sicily.) Negatives: 21€ taxi to airport (no shuttle) and a dodgy, dirty neighbourhood (located just past what apears to be a jail.) Probably would have cancelled and stayed in Central Catania, but hotel's cancellation policy prevented that. We had adjoining rooms that were clean and comfortable.

The staff very friendly, extremely helpful, and the best part about the hotel. I didn’t like that the bathroom window wouldn’t close allowing bugs to fly in, and the flimsy shower curtain clinging to you. Overall was a good stay.

Excellent location, right across the road from the beach. You get a pass to the beach for staying at the hotel. Room was small but very clean and the bathroom had been recently updated. Elevator is incredibly small, just enough room for 2 people and 2 bags to cram in. Fuel station right in front of the property, a nice amenity for those who are returning a rental car. Gated parking. We had dinner at the restaurant -- it was excellent.

Good hotel, next to beach and airport.
Stayed here so we would be close to the airport as we had an early morning flight. Staff was great, good service and friendly. The restaurant was excellent. Close to the sea and beach. Older hotel, but everything we needed for one night. Bed was a little hard and there were some noisy guests but that can be expected. Would stay here again.

Nice beachside hotel near runway
We visited the Hotel Miramare in Catania on the winter season. The area is near beach what is shielded by other resorts so entering the beaches can be troublesome. Also we noticed lot of clubs in the beach area what might indicate rich (noisy) nightlife during the season. There is a gas station and small bakery next to the hotel where you can get late or early snack 24/7. Take off and landing planes will make noise as the hotel is almost at the start of a runway. Even though this is near the airport, you will need to go all the way around through Catania to enter the airport. Hotel breakfast was served from 9am and it was not possible to get it earlier, so consider this if you book this for your early flight.

The hotel is very clean however the condition is out of date alike 80s vintage house. Location is quite far from the airport and have to take a taxi in order to get there. Find other places to stay if you wish for comfort.

Staff were very friendly and willing to help
We needed somewhere to stay overnight and the hotel was clean and functional for its purpose. As we arrived late the hotel appeared in darkness and looked closed so more lighting would be beneficial after normal hours.

funny hotel, sort of close to the airport. the rooms are in terrible condition, but clean and the upkeep is surreal. there were no toilet papers when we checked in, and they asked me to come down and get one. later realizing there were none left in the hotel, the receptionist kindly provided me with one of his own. in sum, cheap rates, really bad rooms, and honestly incapable staff.

Very conveniently close to the airport of Catania
The hotel is located along the coast, few km from Catania downtown. We chose it because it is very close to the airport and stayed only one night before leaving Sicily. A bus to Catania runs every 20-30 minutes along the main road, therefore it is very easy to reach the city center without having to use the car. We did not exploit it, but the hotel offers the entrance to the beach private facilities. The room was clean and overall comfortable. The breakfast was average. Altogether a positive impression.

Perfect as a near airport hotel
The hotel was perfectly fine for us arriving in on an evening flight and not wanting to travel too far. We went to the bar next door for food but wish we had just eaten at the hotel as the menu looked nicer. The buffet breakfast set us up the next day. Hotel on main road and near airport so bit noisy. Won't rush back there but it served its purpose well.

Miramare- close to Catania airport
chose this hotel to get to the airport for a very early flight from Catania...thank goodness....there was a fierce thunderstorm and so glad the hotel arranged for an early taxi (very competent) to get me safely to the airport quickly. Very clean, basic accommodation at a reasonable price. Just a little difficult to find the road that the hotel was on as there are so signs with street name ( but that was typical of Sicily). Hotel should post directions on site.

Hotel.com has the wrong address which defeated the purpose of staying so close to the airport! Streets in Catania are not all named nor found easily if they are.....it is also hard to find people who speak English, so it took us an age to find this hotel. You get what you pay for. The young man on reception was most helpful and friendly. He noticed on our Hotel Confirmation that the address was wrong! Is this a hotel.com or Miramare Hotel error? Given this error the GPS was useless and it was very frustrating and time wasting.

Nice hotel by the airport
I stayed here because I wanted to be on time for my morning flight. The room was comfortable, clean and everything functioned properly. There's a store/cafe/bar next door with snacks. Please note that despite being very close to the airport, there is no direct access to walk to the airport. A car or a flat-rate cab ride is necessary to reach this hotel from the airport.

Sauber aber für einen 3 Sterne Hotel ziemlich spartanisch eingerichtet. Das Mobiliar ist uralt und die Türe und die Wände lassen alle Geräusche durch. Man hört ziemlich alles. Die Umgebung ist sehr schlecht mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln an die Stadt angebunden...aber wenn man nur ans Strand möchte, passt es 😊

Für Partytiger
Für Junge Mensche, die am Strand bis sechs Uhr früh Party machen wollen ist es ideal. Wenn man allerdings in der Nacht schlafen möchte, dann wird es eher sehr schwer. Wir haben es wegen der Nähe zum Flughafen gewählt, was aber nichts bringt, denn das Taxi muss trotzdem rund herum fahren, daß man wahrscheinlich in der City schneller ist.
