Cristina (Sicilian) and Rob (English) welcome you to the "5 Balconi Bed & Breakfast", a sunny palazzo built in the 1800's, with lots of colour, character and charm.
We are situated in the historic heart of Catania, right above the 13th century Ursino Castle, which dominates the piazza and gardens of Federico di Svevia. Here you can wine and dine "al fresco" on delicious typical dishes at very reasonable prices, while soaking up the atmosphere of a real Sicilian quarter.
