We had a large comfortable room. The hotel is an old small hotel without an elevator and the stairs are steep. Silvia was so helpful and responded via messaging very quickly. There was no one at reception except when we met her the first morning.

Nice stay at Locanda di Gagini
It was all self check-in. A little confusing at first because we thought we had to find our room key, but they had left a key card on the desk. More like a B&B (not hotel). 3rd floor room has many steps to carry suitcases. Good location. Wonderful breakfast and attentive friendly service.

A wonderful stay at Locanda del Gagini. Sylvie is lovely and very welcoming. The main bed frame is metal and squeaks. A lot. However, overall the stay was absolutely great and highly recommended.

Gem located in a wonderful old city.
Locanda del Gagini was a gem located in the heart of Palermo. The staff provided excellent service, and they were always attentive to our every need. Our room was lovely, and provided everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The hotel is located in an older part of the city, and there were many things to see and do in close proximity. The central train station could be reached by foot with no issues. The additional transfer service from the airport was very helpful as well.

Great stay in Palermo
We had a great stay at the apartment in August. The owners communicated with us really well. All the things that we could possibly need were there. The best feature is that the apartment is located right in the center of Palermo,very close to the tourist attractions, streets with stores, restaurants and bars. This apartment is a large suite with great air conditioning. Beds are very comfortable. The breakfast was delicious! All in all, great experience in every aspect!

highly recommend for Palermo visit!
This is a wonderful place to stay in Palermo! The location is ideal. The room we had was spacious and comfortable. The best part was the exceptional customer service. I was contacted soon after booking with information about check in and offer of airport shuttle service. All communications were answered promptly. The lovely host sisters Sylvia and Laura were so pleasant and engaging. They prepare an amazing breakfast with delicious homemade cakes and we enjoyed our talks with them. They love their city and gave suggestions for things to do. Highly recommend saying here and don't miss breakfast even if you don't want to eat!

Central location and loved the roof!
We had a lovely stay at Locanda del Gagini. The place is just five minutes away walking from the main attractions, restaurants and bars. We were treated to a lovely breakfast every morning including home made cakes from the owners and she gave us great tips about where to go and what to see. , Our room was on thd second floor and very nice with a lovely wooden roof. Definitely a good place to stay.

Nice little hotel in Palermo
The hotel is fairly well located in a side road from Via Roma. The Airport shuttle dropped us off about five minutes walk away. There are quite a few restaurants within a short walk and the hotel provided a map with many of the top attractions such as the Norman Palace marked so it was easy to find them. Our Room (2) was very big with a double bed and two singles with a dividing curtain between them so it is suitable for a couple with up to two children and even then it was quite a large room. The bathroom was a bit cramped and you have to step around the toilet to get out of the shower but that was a minor issue. The room also has a small balcony which most will not use but came in handy when the Easter procession passed by the hotel on Good Friday. The TV had only Italian speaking channels (my Italian is basic) and it would be nice to have some alternatives for their international guests (maybe an English news and movie channel?). Breakfast was basic but there was enough choice there to have something different for the three breakfasts we ate here. As we were the only persons eating at 9am each morning it felt a little awkward with the owner sitting waiting for us to finish (but maybe that is just us being British :).

Dear Mr Barry, thank you for staying at our establishment. Thank you also for leaving such a detailed review, it is very important for us to know the opinion of our guests. As for the TV, we will certainly find a way to add new TV channels, while as far as breakfast is concerned, I'm sorry you felt embarrassed, we try to share breakfasts to reduce close contacts between you guests, while I was only there to help you with the preparation of coffee and cappuccino and to serve you breakfast, I didn't want to put pressure or anything else. We Sicilian citizens are used to being hospitable and friendly, I'm sorry you didn't appreciate it.

Our stay at the Locanda del Gagini has been wonderful. The team have gone out of their way to make us feel welcomed and taken care of. This has the friendliness and homeliness of a B&B and the professionalism of a hotel. It’s well positioned for the city and the team are happy to make suggestions and help with travel planning. Big thank you to Laura in particular for being our main host whilst we stayed. We have had a wonderful honeymoon - thank you.

A great place to stay in the heart of Palermo!
A very clean and comfortable place to call home when visiting Palermo. There's a genuine Sicilian feel throughout, from the decor to the hospitality. Sylvia, Laura and Ilaria made sure my stay was second to none. They were all very helpful with suggestions and local information. It is ideally situated near two main roads and only steps away from many local landmarks. Teatro Massimo is only a five minute walk away, as are many fine shops and restaurants. To help map out my visit, the WiFi was essential. It was fast and, more importantly, secure. Couldn't have asked for a better base to explore historic Palermo!

Great boutique hotel, close to Palmero cathedral and city center. Parking is short walk & $15 a night. The hotel itself is just off the Main Street, it’s more like a B&B very personalized.

Amazing room, even better service
We were welcomed by the two very lovely, informative, and charming girls at the front desk after a long journey. They were incredibly enthusiastic and informative about their city and started our trip off with a local drink and warm smiles. The hotel itself is centrally located and beautifully decorated. The hotel was recently renovated and the beds are extremely comfortable. The hosts went above and beyond with making our stay perfect, they even dropped us to the station when we were running late to the airport. We would 100% recommend this hotel and will definitely come back to stay in the future.

Excellente expérience
Très bien situé au cœur de Palerme, dans un rue très calme. La chambre était spacieuse, très récemment rénovée et très propre. Excellent accueil avec de bons conseils sur les choses à faire alentours. Petit déjeuner très correct et avec beaucoup de choix. Nous ont autorisé à laisser nos sacs dans l'entrée le matin de notre départ en nous laissant la clef pour pouvoir revenir les chercher plus tard dans la journée. Pratique pour la visite. A noter : si vous arrivez après les heures de réception 'normales' (après 19 ou 20h) il y a une surcharge de 15€.

Our lovely time at Locanda del Gagini
We had a lovely time staying at Locanda del Gagini. Our hosts- sisters Laura and Sylvia- were so helpful and friendly. The hotel is in two parts- we were in a building with two separate type apartments (and therefore breakfast time only featured up to two different travelling groups and therefore service was very personal and well addressed). The first impression (on arrival late one evening) was very welcoming and organised (e.g. providing us with a local map showing attractions/restaurants). The building has been internally styled in a contemporary manner whilst retaining some of the original characteristics. Our room was very comfortable, well presented and clean. When Sylvia and Laura found out it was my partner's birthday, they made a surprise cake and left a bottle of wine from their family's local winery in our room, as a gift. We found our stay to be joyful and very friendly.

The room itself was very nice. However the fridge that contained most of the breakfast items (yogurt, cheese, meat, milk) was not switched on and was very warm. And there didn't seem to be any other guests in that part of the hotel so I have no idea how long that stuff had just been sitting in a warm fridge. Also the street outside was very noisy until well after midnight.

Thank you for your comment. -You were probably the only ones in that facility during your stay, but I don't think that's relevant. -Breakfast is self-service, but every day the staff check the deadlines and the freshness of these to offer you the best products. -We chose glass-room to minimize the noise, but unfortunately finding us in the heart of the city is normal that there is some noise from the street. However we will try to improve even in this to ensure our customers the best services.

A great B&B to explore Palermo.
A great base for exploring Palermo, we had a fabulous room (3) and amazingly found local parking too, the lady in charge even validated our cars ZTL pass for us as she could do it for free. Nice breakfast and great staff. It’s a thumbs-up from us. There is plenty to Restaurants nearby and the Cathedral and old town is an easy walk.
