The quadruple room we stayed in was a nice size with a bathroom. The breakfast was satisfactory with fresh pastries from the bakery and the bakery, as example and had something for everyone. The stuff was amicable and welcoming all that time.

Quiet hotel, kind staff, modern room, nice looking bathroom. Very good breakfast with cereals as well and fresh pastries, as for instance offered in a QUIET atmosphere. In the centre of the city, very convenient.

Had a perfect stay here. All in all, it was right place for travelling to Palermo. Had comfortable and exceptionally nice location in an old Palazzo, close to Church of the Holy Cross. Further, it was not far from the center of Palermo, and all the attractions.
Well, the area was quite dirty overall.

Very nice overall experience. Hotel is quiet, stunning location, kind staff. Easy enough to find, in the centre of Palermo. And short walk to Palermo on feet and a former palace. Very good breakfast choices with the bakery, fresh pastries plus the most gorgeous cake, quiet atmosphere.

The staff was amiable and welcoming the entire time. Its location was excellent, near the historical center of Palermo by foot, Palermo and the old town which was beautiful and lots of nice restaurants.

Appreciated our stay, had nice 3 days overall. The location was top, at a moderate distance from a monumental fountain. Our well decorated room was complete with a good breakfast. We had nice breakfasts with fresh pastries from the bakery.
Our bed was uncomfortable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 nights here. The hotel was quiet, the bed was nice. A heating system, a work desk and flat-screen television in our double room were realy useful during our stay. The host was friendly.
