Beautifully appointed boutique hotel, quiet, and centrally located! Parking was so easy, I pulled up and they took care of it for me. I walked everywhere from the hotel. I stayed in Apartment 2, which was very spacious and had a full kitchen. Breakfasts were generous and tasty, and the fresh scents left in the room after cleaning were delightful. Staying here felt luxurious and secret — this hotel is a jewel in Palermo.

I just loved the historic details — these stairs are hundreds of years old

Wonderful Boutique hotel

This was probably one of the nicest boutique hotels we have stayed in with amazing friendly staff. Great location to explore the city. Wonderful breakfast and complementary cakes and coffee throughout the day. The property was a wonderful peaceful haven of calm to return to after exploring the busy city. The room was very spacious, beautifully decorated and chic. Highly recommend

Wonderful!

Beautiful and classy interior of this boutique hotel tucked away from the main road. It was a little difficult to navigate the side streets to get to the hotel but Rosa the owner was very responsive and waiting for us when we arrived. They were able to take our car right away and park it in a private parking. This was so nice to not have to worry about parking in busy Palermo. The bed was so comfortable! Breakfast was great. Would stay again!

Beautiful hotel with many different rooms to explore and to enjoy a drink in. The hotel had many hidden rooms that took a few days to discover. Do check out the rooftop terrace! Breakfast included was delicious with great variety - coffee and snacks all day. Rooms were clean and maintained. The staff were attentive to our needs. Do not hesitate to ask questions and ask for restaurant recommendations! Location: quick access to buses. Close to mini markets. In summary, this hotel is a hidden gem in the heart of Palermo. The hotel is beautiful including artwork and vibe. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely return. Area for improvement: missing a mini-refrigerator in the rooms to keep beverages cold during hot summer months.

They would have known that the bathroom would flood as it drained extremely slowly. So we had the stay in the shower for at least 15 after completion before we could even open the door. When the shower door opened, there was nothing to stop the water from flooding the entire bathroom. They said said they had 24 hour concierge but not one answered the WhatsApp and phone. We have use all our towels available and that made it a bad experience.

Wat een schitterend hotel! Midden in het centrum! Alles ziet er verbluffend mooi uit. We hadden een kamer op de eerste etage, aan een openbare ruimte waar taartjes en een koffietafel staat wat zelf te gebruiken is. Het ontbijt bevat gevulde croissantjes, cannoli’s en taartjes. Tevens heerlijke koffie en thee. De bediening is erg vriendelijk en beleefd. Het was een heel fijn verblijf.

This property, which has been newly renovated, is a true work of art. Entering from a narrow street, you are immediately immersed into a space that is a modern take on the timeless architecture of this district. The touches of exposed stone walls along with artful lighting and playful objects d'art make the lobby a dramatic entry into an impeccably refurbished hotel. This is a small boutique property, with each room uniquely and beautifully furnished. Our room was very spacious, and even had a soaking tub in the bedroom area. The bed was heavenly and the room incredibly quiet. We wish we had more time to have stayed in this jewel of a hotel!

The facility itself was beautiful. Rarely saw staff. Breakfast was quite nice. Trying to find a bottle of water was challenging. Trash was not emptied from the kitchen area from previous guest. The biggest problem was the water. Not being able to get it for a drink. The smell of all the scents in the place was a bit much

Liked: Staff & service
Initial impression good - renovated property in a good location close to the centre of the old town. Essentially it is a BnB - staff are friendly and attentive. Breakfast was typical Sicilian - sweet pastries and option of hot breakfast, but only eggs. The downside - threadbare towels, housekeeping only average - bathroom cleanliness especially shower inadequate although addressed when brought to their attention. Expensive - overall lacks value for money.
