Likely the world's best hotel breakfast. When you sit down at a two person table they pull up another two person table just to fit all the food they are about to bring out for you. 10/10

great choices for breakfast. There was a staff person at the desk all the time, who could answer questions about how to get to places. There was free public parking juat around the corner from the hotel. We could easily get our bags to our room. Since we arrived at the end of the day, there were plenty of spaces, and it was safe!
Very big room. Camplus is apparently also a college dorm, which was fine for us. Lots of young people around.

Edgy and eclectic, Palermo is a symbol of all that Sicily stands for. From buzzing Vespas to the bustling Vucciria market, it simply brims with life.
Wonderful Palermo Cathedral glows radiantly in the Mediterranean sun. Nearby is the city’s last Sicilian Puppet Theater, and across the street is a palm-filled park housing Roman mosaics, though the best are in the archeological museum. At one end is the Norman Palace, a government building home to the fabulous Cappella Palatina, whose gold mosaics are absolutely breathtaking.
Equally magnificent are the gold mosaics lining the 12th-century Monreale Cathedral on the city’s outskirts. Wander the cloisters and note the varying columns and capitals – each pair is different.
Palermo also has fascinating churches: 2 of the oldest are 12th-century San Giovanni degli Eremeti and San Cataldo, each with red, Islamic-style domes. Gesú Church has an incredible Sicilian Baroque interior, while La Martorana’s frescoes are awe-inspiring. A street away is Quattro Canti, an intersection with a fountain in each corner.
Other attractions include the round Teatro Massimo, Mondello beach and Monte Pellegrino mountain overlooking the sea. You get fabulous views of this picnic spot as you fly into Palermo Airport before heading to your Booking.com accommodations.
Palermo is a city of contrasts. It sounds trite, but it is true. Beautiful city centre and ugly suburbs. Magnificent palaces and piles of rubbish stuck next to architectural gems. Reliable bus and rail connections and endless car queues. Cheerful and cute Palermitani and constant challenges at pedestrian crossings. And a great kitchen.
It was rich, and probably too rich to resist. It has potential.
Palermo is a must.

Palermo is a great city, but it is just that...........a BIG city. Be aware of transactions. Palermo taxi drivers are notorious for being dishonest. NEVER take your eyes off of the meter in a cab. When you are distracted, drivers will "tap" the meter, causing the fare to increase. When shopping, always know in advance what you should be paying before you actually pay. Overall though, it's a fascinating place to get exposure to all the wonderful things Sicily has to offer.

Our day began with a 5 1/2 drive from Tropea including a 20 minute ferry ride. It was actually a really a beautiful drive that varied from hugging the hills along the coast to long periods of tunnels powered through mountains. Upon arriving in Palermo I noticed that my fellow drivers disregarded the lanes and worked their way through spaces in traffic. Motorini buzzed by on sides, but overall I felt quite comfortable behind the wheel there. The town has a special character that’s hard to describe, and there is an attitude in the locals I wish I embodied. They did themselves, and seemed to not care what others thought or said. My favorite things were the Antiques and Palazzo Federico. If I come back in my next life I want to be Nicolò Federico the son of the “Flying Count” who also was our guide to his home. A definite must go. The tour left my wife and I in awe, especially as Nicolò pointed out the Italian Flag displayed on the wall which had blood stains from battles during the unification of Italy under Garibaldi. Please, please check it out it’s only an hour. The further South in Italy I travel the more splendor of this special country, people, and culture.

Went visited with our 4 children and had a wonderful time in this busy city! Lots to do, even managing to appease teenagers with the gelato! We went to Mondello beach for one day - the bus there was extremely busy and we just got a taxi back as the buses essentially never come for the return, but it was a lovely beach and we all had lots of fun! I would recommend, lots to see/do/eat but not exactly for people wanting a quiet getaway!

Very busy city. Historical sights interesting.
Very busy city. Historical sights interesting. Traffic chaotic! Unfortunately absolutely filthy with lots of rubbish dumped on the roads and footpaths. People seemed rude. Terrible service at restaurants. Mondello beach area is a dump really. However, the water looked beautiful. Will not be going back.

The "Teatro Massimo" which is the third largest theater in the world.
The beautiful old churches from the city, Palermo Cathedral, the old Dominican Monastery with the church Santa Caterina d'Alessandria, Palazo dei Normani, Palazzo Conte Federico, and many more.
The central pedestrian streets, and the port with the "Marina" esplanade and the musical fountain.
Some close by objectives are Monte Pellegrino, Monreale, the Vergine Maria beach and the natural reservation of Capo Gallo.
The host (Mauro) was super helpful, any questions were answered quickly. The best thing was good air conditioning, wich was absolutely neccessary (July in Sicily!). The place is a few min walk from the old city, so it is easy get around on feet (but buses are close as well). The train station Palazzo Reale - Orleans is very close, so it is easy to get from/ to the airport. Several shops/ bakery are very near. Place is very clean and well maintained.
The host was very friendly and gave some helpful advice about where to eat and shuttle bus to airport etc. When he wasn't there his son was just as friendly . The room was very large,very comfortable and kept clean by a nice lady. The location is excellent for the centre of Palermo everywhere within walking distance. The breakfast was impressive, quality and selection is the best we have had in Sicily. We would definitely stay here again
location was central and room was very nice, spacious, quiet and comfortable. but best, I have to say the best staff on our one month trip to Sicily. so warm, went out of way to help with travel questions, served super good Italian breakfast with changes every day. All the staff were great and hotel is very nice, yet feels homey. have garden with big mosaic, have a bar for happy hour. near Teatro Massimo( we walked to concert).
The staff were amazing. They helped organize our taxis upon arrival and for day trips. Massimo and Alessio were very informative and gave tips of different places to visit throughout Palermo. They were extremely kind and welcoming! And the location was perfect !!! Close to the train station as well as in the city centre near all the action. The B&B also had breakfast every morning which was delicious and classic for Sicily.
Phenomenal staff, location, and breakfast. As soon as we stepped in the door, we were made to feel right at home in this lovingly curated, boutique hotel. We were provided with excellent dining and shopping recommendations, as well as ideal walking routes to tour the city. Breakfast was absolute perfection. The owner, Alessandro, has created a very special place for visitors in Palermo, and I hope to return soon.
Truly the best room we’ve ever had in Italy. This is actually luxury, unlike many that advertise as such. The linens are incredible- they add a beautiful pillow top to the bed. The pillows are magic. The space is so comfortable we had to force ourselves out. We will stay here again when we return to Palermo. The staff is also wonderful and dealt with issues promptly. Thank you so much.
The apartament is big, it has a coffee machine, a balcony with a nice view over a neighborhood in Palermo and it's pretty close to Palermo's historical center.
We also had a private parking nearby, with 10euros a day and we advice you not to leave your car on streets in Sicily because it will definitely be robbed or stolen.
The block of flats is newly built and this was nice as well.
It was a really nice place to be, very central and right by the beach. There were good shopping options nearby, it was especially nice to have a baker nearby. The host was very friendly and welcoming, and she helped us a lot. She knew a lot about the area and Sicily and gave lots of good advice. So we would definitely recommend staying in this apartment if you are visiting Palermo.
Located in Ballarò (downtown), next to one of the oldest street markets in Palermo, the most lively one and surely picturesque of Sicily. Nice room and bathroom, with the best breakfast in town (and the best I have tried in Sicily). And all thanks to its host, Mariella 🌞. She is a wonderful human being who makes you feel at home. I cannot describe anything else, just try it.
Great location in the center of Palermo's Historic Section. Lots of restaurants nearby. Best homemade breakfast we had while in Italy. The owners were extremely helpful with advice, directions and info on the history of Palermo, and helped us find parking just outside of the restricted area. Will happily stay in this hotel if we ever find ourselves in Palermo again.
This was an ideal location for our stay in Palermo. While the piazza and pedestrian street outside the building were constantly loud and busy, the windows and shutters did a good job of giving us enough quiet to sleep. The bed was the most comfortable of our 3 weeks in Sicily. Make sure you head up to the roof to see the views!
We used the apartment as our gateway to Palermo/Sicily and the location is perfect for that purpose. Advise: if you are arriving from the airport, get of the bus as close to Via Sant Augustino as possibe and save a long walk from the Central Station. And as she said as we walked through the door: "I could live here!"
As far definitely our the best accommodation on Sicily. Localization on the heart of Palermo, freshly renovated. Little things that make you happy like wine glasses, corkscrew, salt etc. Excellent 24/7 contact with english skills owner via WhatsApp. Big parking square 200m from building. I highly recommended :)
A very nice hotel. It doesn't look as much from the outside, but once inside it is the most lovely hotel with a fantastic courtyard and pool. Great room and best of all the aircon just works - a must during the warm Sicily summer months.
The location was great - a walking distance to Palermo's main tourist attractions. The breakfast was rich and served on a lovely terrasse. The host was very open and gave us a lot of information about Palermo and Sicily in general.
Thoughtfully curated boutique hotel in a great area of Palermo. Rooms are nice, modern, with the amenities you’d expect. Breakfast in the courtyard was wonderful each morning and the restaurant within it was terrific.
The house and gardens were beautiful and well looked after. Monica was a very attentive and helpful host. Breakfast was very good. Proximity to the airport and great for exploring Palermo and the west of Sicily.
The location is great! Service is good, room is tastefully decorated. It is the best we have stayed in Sicily. And we feel like we have been pampered and so far the rest of the hotels are not as nice.
High standard B&B with comfortable room and extras of a luxury hotel. Staff was exceptionally helpful. Breakfast was terrific. Best A/C we had in Sicily.
