Good location

Nice hotel in a great location. Breakfast was plentiful. Roof top bar/restaurant was nice - not very large - and only open in the evening. Downstairs bar/coffee lounge was never open which was very disappointing as nowhere to get a drink during the day in the hotel… you were forced to go out to one of the nearby bars.

The hotel was perfectly located for the centre of Palermo without being in the thick of it. Nice quiet area around the designer shops with eating in short walking distance. The airport shuttle stops right outside! The hotel is super clean with a stocked fridge and hairdryer. TV mostly in Italian but didn’t bother us as hardly there! There’s a kettle and coffee machine but suggest you bring your own tea bags. The mini mary to the left is perfect for water and beers! Roman is very friendly. Staff were very friendly and pleasant, especially at reception and give you all the info you need. Don’t bother with the free Prosecco as it’s half a glass but the views from the top are impressive. Overall great stay and will be back!

Very comfortable beds, and great breakfast - also has a lovely rooftop bar. Helpful staff - would definitely stay again. Only thing to be aware of is it's on quite a busy square, so there was a small amount of traffic noise.

Honestly we could not have chosen a better hotel for our first trip to Sicily. We are more enchanted with Palermo and Sicily than we could have imagined. The room was perfect and we made good use of our balcony with the gorgeous view. We loved the rooftop restaurant and breakfast was always nice. I will miss my cappuccinos with pretty hearts that always made me smile. The location was perfect and we enjoyed just walking around and surprising and enjoying local food. The grocery store and ATM were very accessible as well. Thanks!!

Great hotel and staff

The staff were very helpful, and I appreciated the dining staff remembering I was gluten free for breakfast. The room was nicely furnished and the bed comfy, with a fab view of the square. Great location. Valet parking at 22 euros a day was handy, but if you are getting the bus from the airport, the stop is just outside. Enjoyed a drink in the rooftop bar.
