Artistic boutique hotel providing spacious rooms, an immersive Sicilian culture experience, and a rooftop with city views

Overview

Asmundo di Gisira is an art-focused boutique hotel in Piazza Mazzini, once declared the most beautiful square in Catania. Rising from the ashes of the 1693 earthquake, the hotel is housed in a black Baroque building designed by the greatest architects of its time. You'll be within 3 minutes of the Roman Columns and Giovanni Verga's House Museum, with the majestic facade of the Duomo and the Ferdinandea gate within view.

The spacious suites each come with a private balcony, providing picturesque views of Via Dottore, Via Auteri, and Via Gisira. Inside the rooms, you'll find a mix of modern and traditional furnishings with quirky and artsy decor. Each room features a large bathroom equipped with waterfall showerheads, decor focusing on chromotherapy, and hypoallergenic duvets and pillows. Upgraded suites enhance your stay with amenities like a private gym and whirlpool.

Beyond your room, you can explore the antique shop, "Antiche Mura," and a permanent exhibition showcasing a collection of contemporary art, both located on the hotel's ground floor. On the third floor, the "Rooftop Gisira" offers a sensory experience set among the historic tiles of Sicilian rooftops, overlooking the historic center's colorful lanes—a perfect blend of tradition and innovation.
