Arriving in Catania
Hotel Etnea Royal Suites is 5.2 km from Catania Airport (CTA). Catania Centrale station is about 1.3 km away, roughly a 15-minute walk. Catania operates a ZTL limited-traffic zone in its historic centre, where cameras issue automatic fines to unauthorised vehicles. No parking is listed here, so check where to leave a car before driving into the centre. Italian cities charge a tourist tax (tassa di soggiorno) per person per night, collected by the property rather than included in the booking total; the rate depends on the city and the property's star rating, and many properties still take it in cash.
