“Good hotel and location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 July 2007
1
person found this review helpful

Although the hotel looked a bit "tired", and that the prime time was a few years earlier - we enjoyed our one night stay at this hotel.

It's located next to the Politeama Theatre, and enjoys a nice location for a stay in Palermo.

Breakfast was good, a bit limited selection of cold cuts and such - but nothing to complain about really.

“This people missed good manners lessons”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 April 2007

people found this review helpful

The hotel has an exellent location, near wonderfull shops and bars. It is also close to the museums and churches. The hotel is a bit old. They should be very carefull when choosing the personel at the reseption desk... the worst treat we had ever had! It's a petty, because the hotel is good in deed.

“Would never stay here again”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 March 2007

Our room on the 4th floor overlooked the main square and was very noisy and despite control panel on the wall, there was no air conditioning. Very spacious and clean but the decor was lugubrious to say the least.

“Nice place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2006

It had an excelent location. We were given a room overlooking a dark alley, but it was silent.
Very nice and clean. Just on the edge of Quattro Canti, one of the most popular and safest places in the city.

“Great for sightseeing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2006
4
people found this review helpful

Excellent location, safe, lots of shops and cafes and very handy for all the sights,. The airport bus stops right outside. City buses to everywhere are just a a few seconds walk away. The room was spotless, with good air conditioning (essential) and soundproofing (blocked out everything except the Italian World Cup victory roars). TV, however, was useless. No English channel and other functions erratic. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was a good spread of meat, cheeses, pastries, cereals and fruit. Would happily stay there again.

  • Tips/Secrets — Take the bus from the airport not a taxi. It stops outside
