Pallavicino Holidays from £176

I really loved this place. The room was a cross between an elegant hotel room in a classic hotel to a guest room in a villa. This place has true, old school vibes while being perfectly modern in all amenities. The location is perfect. Two minor cautions. First, must be able to carry your bag up stairs and not be uncomfortable climbing them to get to your room. Second, make sure you get check in directions because the desk isn’t staffed outside their listed hours. I hope to come back because I loved it there.

The only flaws are that the rooms are very small, the air conditioner did not function properly on a hot day and this place is in the middle of nowhere. If you are seeking exclusive this is it

Staying at Daphne house is a must. First, other reviews are 100 correct, as this property is superbly clean, decorated, and taken care of. There is even a lift for accessability. The homecooked breakfast and cakes were all made from locally sourced ingredients. Honestly, the cakes should be sold in a shop. They are amazing. The host will go out of her way to make you comfortable. We had a hard afternoon before checking in, so to make us feel more settled she gave us some cake and coffee on arrival. To top it all off, she even gave us a tour of her olive trees, and let us sample her homemade olive oil. Such an exceptional, authentic, talented, and intelligent host! A wonderful experience indeed!

Uniquely charming old Palazzo ideally located within a few minutes walk of many Palermo attractions. Small common area is just outside the rooms, a good place to enjoy tea, coffee, fruit and biscuits, and to meet other guests. Good restaurant suggestions. Room quiet despite busy neighborhood. Older or less able guests need to know that access is possible only via outside staircase, expect no help with bags.
