About this apartment rental
In the heart of the baroque center of Catania, on the first floor of a historic building, the Casetta dell'Elefante overlooks the Cathedral garden and the Abbey of Sant'Agata, the church with the most beautiful baroque dome in the city.
Renovated in 2017, the apartment has been designed to offer a pleasantly romantic atmosphere, with bright rooms furnished in Sicilian style.
Staying in the Elephant Lodge means letting yourself be carried away by the charm and warmth of the most authentic Catania.
Perfect for couples, the apartment has an entrance hall, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom and living room with additional 2-3 beds, air conditioning and heating.
A stone's throw from the historic market of Pescheria and the main sites of interest, literally a stone's throw from the Cathedral of St. Agatha and from the adjacent Piazza del Duomo (headquarters of the town hall and Elephant's residence), all sites of tourist interest are easily reachable by foot in a few minutes: Via Etnea, Palazzo Biscari, Castello Ursino, the Benedictine Monastery, the historical markets "La Pescheria" and "a Fera o Luni", the Greek Theater, the Greco-Roman Amphitheater and the Teatro Massimo Bellini, are only the most famous among the gems that over the centuries have given luster and character unique to the city of Catania and that today are guarded by a citizenship always ready to welcome those interested in the exhibition.
Numerous nearby are the restaurants (even in the same building) where you can taste the most famous local culinary specialties, the bars serving the extraordinary sweet breakfasts (famous the granita with brioche or the brioche with ice cream) or the incomparable "hot table" catanese , the historic pastry shops to taste and bring home the desserts for which Sicily is known all over the world and also the pubs crowded in the long "nights of Catania" so full of life to be comparable to the Spanish nightlife!
The location of the apartment allows its guests to appreciate the architectural, cultural (and why not, gastronomic riches!) of a city with two millennia of history - naturally, living them fully and without haste, just like every day thousands of people from Catania.
Next to the gate there are buses and a small train to visit the city and the main destinations outside the city (Etna, Siracusa, Acitrezza-Acicastello-Acireale, Taormina, etc.).
A few meters further down is the headquarters of the Tourism Office of the city of Catania, where you can find useful information and advice on guided tours to the most evocative and important places on the less traveled destinations.
Very close to the Villa Pacini with a playground for children.
