Situated in Piazza Verga, in the centre of Catania, the “Excelsior Grand Hotel” is considered to be the most prestigious hotel in the lava city. Built in 1953 and entirely renovated in 2001, the five-star hotel with its 176 bedrooms (of which 6 are suites and 6 are junior suites) with every comfort and modern technology, dominates the hotel scene in Catania.
Its modernity, attention to details, elegance and functionality – with direct Internet connection in all bedrooms – make the hotel particularly suitable to professionals on business trips. A single area dedicated to business with 7 large and well-illuminated banqueting and meeting salons (capacity from 30 to 350 people-theatre seating style), business corner, restaurant with garden, American Bar, wellness and fitness centre etc., make it the ideal place for meetings – also international – that go on for some days. Notwithstanding the modern line of its façade, the Excelsior hides inside all that is sought-after and the elegance of a hotel with charm and tradition.
Harmony and wellbeing are the key words of the hotel: Most of the bedrooms have comfortable balconies which overlook the great square and enjoy a spectacular view of the highest volcano in Europe. And at the Wellness & Fitness Corner, in a welcoming surrounding with enchanting view of the roofs of Catania, the benefits of physical activity in the gym – with latest generation equipment – are blended with relaxation in the Turkish bath and hydro-massage shower.
The Le Zagare restaurant overlooks the internal garden and, in the warmer months, gives the view of a green oasis with typical citrus plants – whilst savouring the delights of the cuisine with its authentic regional flavours.
The selection from the wine cellar is excellent, and features important local labels.
And the L’Incontro Bar is the ‘crowning-moment’ area of the hotel: An open and evocative area, richly decorated with precious boiseries – the ideal place for a tasty snack at lunchtime or for a relaxing after dinner drink, with the sound of the piano in the background...
