| Description |
The Residence "La Vetreria" is situated in the historical centre of Catania, nearby the "Castello Ursino". It is located in a charming view enclosing the city roofs, the Etna volcano, reaching down to the seaside of Augusta. In a few minutes, you can walk down the heart of the city crossing the "Pescheria", the typical and ancient fish market located behind the "Piazza Duomo".
The building was a noble abode that from 1924 housed a glassworks factory. The restoration works aimed at preservation of all its peculiar features, as interior decorations and artisan equipment. The pure and cosy atmosphere of La Vetreria will make you feel at home. The café becomes a perfect place for your spare time, where you can meet people, read a book or play a parlour game.
La Vetreria has a spacious lounge, which perfectly suits exclusive parties, conferences, seminars and cultural events, by offering refined hospitality. A stay in La Vetreria will offer its guests an excellent hotel service and the most homely intimacy and comfort in the same time.
In the hotel's thirteen apartments, you can find both the recovered traditions and modern comforts of technology. Indeed, all rooms have got an independent air conditioning, telephone, Internet connection, satellite TV and a private bathroom including hair dryer.
Kitchens are furnished with the most modern and functional equipment such as microwave; dishwasher is also available in some apartments. An apartment is predisposed for disabled guests.
