Great breakfast service. She's the sunshine as front desk staff is very nonchalant. Room service was good thankfully! otherise great location. Moldy showerhead and tub caulking. Water pressure and temperature varies. Otherise look and feel Is nice. Room poorly lit.Wifi connection was excellent.

Great location Breakfast okay Good value for the price

The hotel is clean, comfortable and modern. We had a basic room which was still a decent size with an en suite shower room. The bed was good. Reception and breakfast staff were friendly and helpful. The location is just a block from Politeama (named for Theatre Politeama rather than that actual piazzas), which with neighbouring piazza Sturzo is one of the main centres for both AMAT city buses (Mondello, Central Station, Norman Palace etc) and intercity coaches to/from the west (Airport, Trapani/Erice, Castelvetrano). There are ticket offices for all the main coach services and the only AMAT booth that sells multi-day city bus tickets (a bargain at less than 3 Euro/day/person for unlimited travel in the city) all in the same street (v Turati) - AMAT actually on an island in Liberte). Dangerously there is an awesome ice cream shop one block away just off Sturzo - 3 flavours - 1.5 Euro, and to damage larger budgets rather than waistlines via Liberte, the next street but one is full of designer shops Gucci etc. There is a Carrefour supermarket within easy walking on via Liberte. The historic centre of Palermo is walkable and certainly easily busable from Politeama. We got the bus to the Central Station fora rail trip to Cefalu and a coach to Agrigento). Getting to the station took 15mins approx on the bus, you wouldn't walk it readily. We found good restaurants in the back streets of the historic town and OK but more expensive ones local to the hotel.

We were actually disappointed with our original room however because of air conditioning issues our room got changed and with that change we were much more pleased. We thought we were booking a family room with a terrace and actually it was a room with a balcony. When we got moved our room was also considered a family room however it was much nicer and the bathroom was updated. To be honest if we had of stayed with the original room this rating would have been much lower. The rooftop patio was very nice and the staff were great. The restaurant had a great view and the food was very tasty...no complaints.

Ok for the money. Staff were nice. Rooms had no safes or real security ....for the centre of Palermo. Breakfast ok. Good locstion

I really liked this hotel. It was small but that seemed to work in their favor. The staff were super helpful and had great English skills. The rooms were clean, modern and well kept. The location was within easy walking distance to the old city center. Our breakfast was a beautiful display, variety, and presentation of food. I had a piece of melon that was "to die for". There was no extra charge for items in the minibar. This was just one of the extras that is not typical. Overall, a great experience!

Fantastic location just a few steps from a major drop off square of the airport bus. Large comfortable rooms. Quiet, clean, safe. Huge breakfast in solarium setting. Owner speaks English well, very helpful with suggestions on sites to see and getting around town, coordinating trips to Monreale and airport. Great value for premises, location, and breakfast offered. Fast reliable free WiFi.

We enjoyed our stay at this hotel. Location was good. We thought the breakie was a little light on in variety but not so that we wouldn't recommend the hotel as the rooms were modern and inviting. Would stay again.

Rooms need a bit updating,. A fresh coat of paint and new carpet would be a great start.. otherwise a charming hotel.. breakfast was great.

The hotel interior was of a good standard, but outside of the Hotel is the main vegetable market which opens quite noisily at 3.30 in the morning, and when walking about the area their is vegetable matter all over the roads & paths Staff helpful and courteous apart from the Restaurant which was overly expensive and the staff in rush to get home and rushing me to finish, with out being offered a desert.
