“B&B Doralice occupies a prime spot in Catania's historic heart, a few steps from Piazza Duomo and Via Etnea, but a short stay is advisable. I appreciate the traditional Sicilian hospitality and the option for vegan breakfasts, and the family-friendly accommodations, however, a certain lack of attentiveness may dampen the experience.”
