B&B Palazzo Cerami in Catania, open June–September.
Guests arrive at this 18th-century palace in Catania's historic center, where stone archways and period details create an immediate sense of arrival at somewhere significant.
The palazzo operates as a boutique hotel, meaning your wedding party stays where the celebration happens—no shuttling between venues or hotels.
Walking out onto the terrace at sunset, surrounded by the architecture of centuries past, becomes the memory guests talk about for years.
I absolutely loved my stay at B&B Palazzo Cerami. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming and always helpful. The breakfast was amazing, fresh and delicious every morning. The location is perfect — everything is within walking distance, which made exploring so easy. The place was also very clean and well maintained. I truly enjoyed my stay and would happily come back!
