Formerly one of Catania's elegant aristocratic homes from the 19th century, the "Villa del Bosco Hotel" offers a stunning combination of the old and new.
The "old" part is a tastefully refurbished 19th century palazzo with old world charm. The new addition, which the owners call VdBNEXT is chic, ultra modern addition they call VdBNext, featuring contemporary design. Together, these two parts work in perfect harmony to provide a unique, compelling and very comfortable place to stay when you are in Catania.
Every bedroom is tastefully decorated and offers guests all the amenities, but there are two "glamorous suites" on the top floor, with panoramic terraces offering views over Mt Etna or the sea, so you can relax in the waves. Each suite has a huge hydromassage where guests can kick back under the sky, and enjoy a glorious cosmic show.
The banqueting facilities, with impeccable service and attention to every detail, are one of the peculiarities of Villa del Bosco & VdBNEXT.
The “Vaccarini” meeting-room, with its frescoes representing the Baroque monuments of Catania, is a charming, evocative place, bringing back the atmosphere of aristocratic parties. The ideal for those special, old-style occasions.
The rooftop “Terrazze Romane” floats between the sky and the sea…senses travel in boundless space.
Strong contrasts, bright colours and clean lines define the new Banqueting Hall. Pony-skin upholstery and clever lighting create a charming atmosphere. Instead, white plex and abundant folds of linen dress up the tables on the adjacent lawn.
And whoever wants to give in to the most pleasant of the lesser sins, should indulge in the sinful delights of the Kennel Restaurant, a name inspired by the 18th century stone dogs which guard the entrance to this welcoming, elegant place, alternates classical Sicilian cuisine with national and international preparations. |
