We stayed for 4 nights at the end of August into the beginning of September. The location of the hotel is perfect and during our time in Palermo, we kept saying that we couldn't imagine staying anywhere else in the city. Both Via Roma and Via Maqueda are right by the hotel and offer tons of shopping, dining, and sight-seeing options. We tended to prefer Via Maqueda, but both will take you to the central station within a 25-30 minute walk. The hotel is also within a short walking distance of bus stops that can take you all around the city. Also, right by the hotel is probably the best sandwich shop in all of Palermo (A’ Putìa), which we definitely considered to be a major perk of its location. The hotel's rooftop bar offers a cool view of the city, but the view from our room's balcony was perhaps even better! The hotel staff were lovely and even let us check out an hour later than the hotel's official time for free. If you are planning a stay in Palermo, we couldn't recommend this hotel enough!

I love this hotel— great location where you are literally on the edge of the city center and where locals live and shop. We had a car so the hotel offered valet parking for our ease of mind - there is not really parking in front of the hotel available or nearby otherwise. It ended up being 23€ per night, not bad. The hotel has a rooftop bar which is beautiful and definitely worth a dinner and/or drinks night cap. It overlooks the lively piazza in front of the teatro. The rooms are quite spacious, clean, and accommodating. I definitely recommend this for a family, friends, or solo travelers looking for a modern stay with our creature comforts.

The reception staff were polite and helpful. We were upgraded and had a room with a terrace and a great view of the city. The room was clean with tea, coffee and nice toiletries. The area felt safe, particularly as there were parts of the city that didn’t feel very safe. Restaurants close by and walking distance of the main attractions.

The room was decent nothing special. The air conditioning was not working well. It never cooled the entire time we were there. Hotel staff said it because it was so hot outside that the units were overloaded. The hotel breakfast and rooftop are fantastic. Location was great. Close to everything yet outside the very busy parts of Palermo. I don’t know that we would stay again as the warm rooms made it very uncomfortable.
