Located a few meters from Piazza del Duomo, in the historic center of Catania, the palace houses on the 1st floor a small luxury hotel of 7 rooms with the atmosphere of a private residence.
Symbol of Catania Baroque architecture, this beautiful building was created in the 17th century by the architect Francesco Battaglia. With its 18th century stucco decorations, decorated wooden coffered ceilings, wrought iron balconies overlooking Piazza del Duomo and terracotta tiles covered with hand-painted floral or geometric motifs, the palace still retains a historical character of great richness.
