This is a great hotel, with good and nice staff, great breakfast, the room was unbeatable, it is very close to the royal palace and the main attractions of Palermo. Nonetheless, the area (2 blocks around the hotel), is dirty and not too nice. Other than that, it is a great hotel.

Gentilissimi in reception. Ci hanno assegnato subito la camera praticamente al nostro arrivo anticipando quindi la fascia oraria. Hall spaziosa e profumata. Parcheggio sotterraneo un po’ da rivedere e più scelta da aggiungere alla colazione. Alla fine non posso che complimentarmi per la gentile accoglienza ed ospitalità. Lo consigliamo a tutti i turisti perché rimarrete soddisfatti. Grazie ancora!

Gentilissimi in reception. Ci hanno assegnato subito la camera praticamente al nostro arrivo anticipando quindi la fascia oraria. Hall spaziosa e profumata. Parcheggio sotterraneo un po’ da rivedere e più scelta da aggiungere alla colazione. Il letto l’ho trovato un po’ scomodo (ma questa può essere una mia opinione). Alla fine non posso che complimentarmi per la gentile accoglienza ed ospitalità. Lo consigliamo a tutti i turisti perché rimarrete soddisfatti. Grazie ancora!
