Hotel Casena Dei Colli  

lovely hotel, very friendly staff, and very good value for money, we had a superior room in the newly refurbished side, really good room, however not all the rooms are the same quality. Location was not the best but eventually we found our way around. I love sicily and would recomend this hotel to anyone visiting Palermo and surroundings.

Three things about the Casena Dei Colli: the Baronato Officiale, Ms. Yvonne.and the hotel itself. The first two very beautiful and do make your stay a pleasure. The hotel just good. I came to Casena looking for an hotel close to Palermo's airport. It is, but do need a restauration. Considering this, short stay and localization I would recommend this hotel.

The fact that it was quiet and between Mondello and the centre of Palermo. The gardens were very beautiful as was the attached stately home. Very spacious rooms.

The breakfast was adequate, but they don't offer any decent espresso coffee, just mokka from the machine in a large cup. The "hot" water from the same machine was never hot, just luke warm, which meant that you could never enjoy a decent cup of tea for breakfast. I don't know when Italians will finally see the light- tea needs hot water!!! But one member of the staff re-heated my cup of luke warm water. He did a great job. One day later another member of staff did the same thing but with negative results. Wi-fi only in hotel lobby, but at least the lobby and lounge was very comfortable.

This hotel was like an oasis within the city. It was quite an unexpected sight as we got closer to the hotel because there are several high rise buildings surrounding it. The grounds are beautiful with palm trees, orange trees and a beautiful villa where breakfast is served. Our room was much larger than expected and was an excellent value for the price. The grounds were also secure with gated entrances. Yvonne, at the front desk, was especially helpful. She recommended a wonderful restaurant for pizza as we were in the mood for a good one. She knew the answer to every question. She even came up with the materials to wrap a package we wanted to send home. Palermo can be a crazy city and this hotel is well placed as it is slightly out of the city, yet close to the bus lines and convenient for heading to the airport. We would definitely stay here again.

Nothing special. Everything was ok.

The breakfast and dinners were excellant. Lobby staff was excellant and helpfull because my luggage was lost. Rooms were always cleaned and maid service daily. Nice to have a room with a balcony to see mountains in backround with garden like property.

you could not exchange your travel checks with euros. Had to go to the bank.

The hotel was absolutely perfect and very comfortable. The suit was large enogh and equipped with every thing that you need. The pool was also very pleasant but on the top of it, the owner Antonio, did what ever he could to make our stay most satisfactory. The breakfast also was quite rich and tasty. I rate this hotel as "10".

price, enough comfort

not clean enough, smell, insects in the room, service is not so pleasant

I booked the hotel six months in advance the booking was for 11 people,(8 adults and 3 children) however upon arrival we were given rooms scattered, two family rooms had balconeys and on different floors the two double rooms were at the very back of the hotel, facing brick walls. I had booked the hotel because of the gardens so you can imagine our disappointment. After expressing our disppointment we were given a family room more to our satisfaction with a garden view. What started out to be a very stressful checkin turrned out to be a very enjoyable stay.

The outside gardens

Friendly staff, large rooms and good location on the outskirts of busy Palermo. The breakfast was excellent and we where also offered to check out late from our room free of charge! Short distance by car for Palermo center and Mondello or Isola delle femmine beaches. Good parking, highly recommended if travelling with a car.

After a days sightseeing it was lovely to come back to such a quiet hotel with gardens and courtyard.We had half board accomodation,our evening meal was the highlight of the day ,the food was excellent,great value for money.Mondello is only a short drive away,alovely seaside resort.

The hotel is difficult to find,if you have a tom-tom take it with you!Sicily has the worst signposting I have ever experienced....and take out excess insurance.

Large comfortable room, good breakfast, good location, off road parking, on bus route.

Free WiFi, but low signal strength in the room.
