What a lovely space. We arrived around 11 at night by taxi and were having difficulty getting in. I phoned the owner and he answered the phone and assisted us immediately. We had the best sleep of our travels thus far. The room was huge and the bed was very comfortable. Perfect bathroom and coffee facilities. Close to the central part of town. Highly walkable.

Palazzo del Poeta is spectacular! After a very challenging drive into town (so many missed turns and one-way micro alleys!), we were feeling a bit shell-shocked at our first time in bustling Palermo. The Palazzo is a sophisticated, quiet, almost glamorous oasis that we really needed after exploring this amazing but sometimes overwhelming city. The staff was very helpful and the accommodations were fabulous. We would absolutely stay again. One suggestion: be sure to check in with staff...

The property is gorgeous and the building is very well maintained. The seaview to the harbor and ocean is serene. There is no noise from the marina or harbor. Staff was very attentive. The rooms were not missing anything. They were generously outfitted with robes, pool sandals, pool bag etc. we had a very memorable stay.

It was amazing, and we wished we could have stayed longer! The front desk staff we extremely friendly and professional, the room had an incredible view and the breakfast was one of the best we had in Sicily.

Il Giardino di Ballarò is a small boutique hotel located right in the center of the old, historic part of Palermo not more than a 10 min walk from most of the sights. It is a very cozy and modern accommodation, and has a lot of character. We felt very welcomed as soon as we walked in - the staff is very welcoming and friendly, offered us refreshments and then provided us with a lot of useful sightseeing and dinning tips. Nice breakfast that you can have inside or in the outdoor private garden....

The property was quirky and obviously under development. The quirkiness was quite nice, and the owner provided breakfast to order himself. We needed a transfer to the airport on the last day, this was facilitated for us, and the owner offered to prepare breakfast especially early in the circumstances. The one problem was the shower door was missing (due to an accident with a previous client), and this was directly open to the room. In the circumstances and due to my size, this was quite awkward...

If you are American, you probably have an impression of Best Western as a pretty mediocre hotel chain. This is NO Best Western! The Hotel Principe de Lampedusa is just marvelous.
We had a classic triple room, which was very spacious, had very high ceilings, travertine marble floors, a nice sized bathroom and our own small, private patio. AC and shower work great. Mini fridge too (although not too cold). It was very quiet.
The room and rest of the hotel are immaculate. It looks brand new. ...

This is a lovely hotel in Palermo. But sadly, we were very underwhelmed with the gritty city of Palermo. Staying at the lovely hotel saved us. Staff was wonderful and we enjoy a dinner at their little restaurant.

It’s a beautiful hotel on one of the main streets of Palermo with easy and quick access to the historic city. (If you are a light sleeper or not used to city noises, this may be a little too loud for you. It did not bother us - we enjoyed the vibrancy.) They had a beautiful and delicious breakfast with lots of variety of hot and cold food. Our suite was very spacious, beautiful and nicely designed. All in all, it was lovely.

I have no comparison experience with other hotels in Palermo, but this is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed in. Built from several previous structures, one a bank and another a cloister, the hotel features majestic spaces, huge public rooms, wide halls, high ceilings. It is like a palazzo located in almost the exact middle of Palermo's historic district, so one can easily walk to the Plazzo Chiatamonte-Steri or Palazzo Abatellis in one direction or the Palazzo dei Normani or the...
