부동산 — Due Mari
Due Mari is a straightforward three-star on the rocky Sila side of Catanzaro, set back from the Ionian coast. The lobby feels like a clean, modest Italian business hotel – polished tiles, a small reception desk, and the faint scent of espresso from the bar. Its real draw is the view: from the upper floors you look straight out over the Gulf of Squillace. Best for budget-conscious couples or solo travellers who want a reliable base without frills, and who'll spend most of their time exploring the city or nearby beaches.
Catanzaro 연대기
Catanzaro was founded in the 10th century as a Byzantine fortress town, later becoming a Norman and then Aragonese stronghold. Its medieval core clings to a steep ridge, while the modern city spills down toward the sea. The city is known for silk production – once a major export to all of Europe – and for its narrow, stepped alleyways in the old Scolacium quarter. Today it's a regional administrative and university centre, with a lively evening passeggiata along Corso Mazzini. The vibe is practical and provincial, not touristy, which gives it an unpolished authenticity.
방문하기 가장 좋은 시간
Catanzaro 완전 가이드 →최고의 달
May, June and September. Late spring and early autumn bring warm, settled weather without the July-August heatwave; crowds are thin and hotel rates reasonable.
Peak / Festival Surge 근처 오락거리
August is peak, driven by Italian holiday season and the Ferragosto week (15 August). Hotels in Catanzaro double their rates; the coastal lidos fill with families. The main event is the Palio di Catanzaro replica (if staged) or local sagre.
Budget Shoulder 시즌
July is a mild shoulder month – still dry and hot but before the August price surge. Late September also works: lighter crowds, cooler evenings, and discounts of 20-30% off peak rates.
날씨 & 포장
Catanzaro sits on a narrow isthmus between the Ionian and Tyrrhenian seas, so a sudden cool breeze from either coast can drop the temperature by 5-8°C in minutes. Pack a light windproof jacket or a pashmina, even if the forecast says 30°C.
City Briefing 근처 오락거리 — Catanzaro
- The Catanzaro marina promenade renovation is complete, with a new pedestrian walkway and public beach access point – good for an evening stroll.
- In June 2026 the city hosts the 'Estate Catanzarese' summer festival series, starting with open-air concerts in Piazza Prefettura on the 26th.
- A new direct bus shuttle between the city centre (Piazza Matteotti) and the Lido di Catanzaro beaches runs every 30 minutes from 1 June, replacing the irregular pre-booking service.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Due Mari, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request

Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the third floor, as they may be closer to the Via Cavour side and receive more street noise.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address on Via Lungomare doesn't offer a sea view, but rooms on the ground and first floors may have a view of the surrounding cityscape or rooftops.

Find train tickets →Catanzaro City Centre (Piazza Matteotti) → Near Agriturismo Il Lago del Passante (Località Passante)
💡 Alight at the 'Passante' stop and walk 800 metres downhill—the agriturismo’s sign is easy to miss. This bus doesn’t run on Sundays or public holidays, so plan accordingly.
Lamezia Terme Centrale Train Station → Catanzaro Lido Station
💡 Take a shuttle bus from the airport to Lamezia Terme Centrale (free with train ticket). At Catanzaro Lido, catch bus #1 or #2 up to the city centre, then a taxi to the agriturismo—no direct local services to the accommodation.
Lamezia Terme Centrale Station (5 min shuttle from airport) → Catanzaro Lido Station
💡 Check for direct trains to Catanzaro Lido; some require a change at Catanzaro Marcellinara. Avoid delays in summer when tracks get heat-affected.
Lamezia Terme International Airport (SUF) → Catanzaro City Bus Station (Piazza Stazione)
💡 Get off at Piazza Stazione, not the Lido stop. From there, take a local taxi or call the agriturismo for a pickup—it’s a 15-minute drive up into the Sila hills.
Lamezia Terme Airport (SUF) → Catanzaro Lido (bus stop on Via Lungomare)
💡 Get off at Catanzaro Lido, then walk 10 minutes or take a short taxi (€5) to the resort; buses run less often on Sundays.
Lamezia Terme International Airport (SUF) → Agriturismo Il Lago del Passante
💡 Book ahead with a local taxi service like Taxi Lamezia to avoid surge pricing. The drive winds through hills, so request a driver familiar with the route to the agriturismo—some sat-navs miss the turnoff.
Lamezia Terme Airport (SUF) → Marina del Marchese Beach Resort
💡 Book through the hotel's concierge to avoid overpriced drivers; fixed rates to the resort are common.
Catanzaro Lido Station → Marina del Marchese Beach Resort
💡 Taxis are scarce after 21:00; pre-book via app or call +39 0961 123456. The walk along the beach promenade is pleasant if you have light luggage.

Catanzaro 주요 관광지
💡 Walk across on foot at sunset – the light on the stone arches is dramatic. Watch for traffic; no dedicated pedestrian lane.
💡 Go around midday when the crypt light hits the mosaic best. The bell tower climb costs €2 but gives panoramic views.
💡 Bring binoculars – the view stretches to the sea on clear days. Best in late spring when the flowerbeds are out.
💡 Check their Facebook page for temporary exhibits – photography shows and ceramics often pop up. Quiet, good for reading.
💡 Knock on the door of the adjacent convent office if the church is locked — they usually let you in. The cloister is free, though they accept small donations.
💡 Free entry only on the first Sunday of the month. Other days it’s €4, still good value. Allow 45 minutes.
💡 Best view is from the Parco della Biodiversità (opposite hillside) or from the road down in the valley. Walk it early morning before traffic picks up.
💡 Check their Facebook before visiting — hours can be erratic. The curated thematic exhibitions (e.g., Pink Floyd or Italian prog) change every few months.
