At
the 4 star Grand Hotel Excelsior Catania guests
have at their disposal one of the city’s finest
gourmet restaurants in Le Zagare
– literally translated, The Orange
Blossoms. Here in Catania’s city
center, our 4 star hotel’s team of award winning
catering staff utilize the finest fresh ingredients
from throughout the region, accompanied by an impressive
wine list that is also sourced right here in Sicily.
The
unique geographical location and the combination of
not one but two different types of fertile volcanic
earth here in the heart of the Mediterranean makes
for some mind-blowing natural produce that is still
largely undiscovered, with vegetables, herbs and marine
life quite unlike those found anywhere else in the
world. To read more about the magical island of Sicily
and perhaps learn a few things that will one day be
handy in a Quiz – take a look at our page on

The in-house bar here at the Grand Hotel Excelsior
in the historical centre of Catania is based on the
American model though has a romantically Italian name
in L’Incontro
– literally translated as simply The
Meeting. Here our guests can enjoy a
pleasant and lively atmosphere, usually with some
unobtrusive live music, along with a fine selection
of aperitivos, quality beers
(of local and international origin) and of course,
the aforementioned wine-list.
Whether hosting an important special occasion or
simply looking to soak up some fine Sicilian hospitality,
our Sicily accommodation offers you the complete
package all on the doorstep of this great historical
city. |
