Neighborhood info

Il B&B Palazzo Tornabene è situato in pieno centro storico di Catania, tra Piazza Vincenzo Bellini, che ospita lo stupendo Teatro Massimo, e Piazza Università, una delle piazze più scenografiche del centro storico catanese, in una meravigliosa cornice che combina storia, arte, folclore, profumi e sapori mediterranei. L’area crocevia della rinomata movida catanese, è caratterizzata da un’intensa vita notturna, che offre divertimento e intrattenimento, in una staffetta tra pub, pizzerie e locali che illuminano i vicoli del centro storico, con strade e piazze che diventano “propaggine” delle attività, aprendo ai caffè concerto la città.
