Located in Catania's historic heart, this two-storey apartment's incredible terrace places you amongst the city's church domes and the Piazza Duomo, with Mount Etna as the backdrop. You're never far from the view here – both bedrooms open directly onto the terrace, and the alfresco dining area is perfect for twilight meals and wine. Inside, the sleek kitchen and breezy living spaces are a nice touch. Being central, you'll find a whole host of eateries and shops a short stroll from the front step, along with a daily market if you're seeking supplies for that terrace feast. In the evening, head to nearby Via Crociferi for a lively evening in one of its bars.
