Oor second stay at the hotel, not as good as last time but still a hotel you can recommend with no problems. Clean, safe, almost friendly (or used to be) and a historical landmark in the absolutely wunderfull city of Palermo. You can walk almost anywhere from the hotel, we walked for hours everyday. We got a room o the backyard, not impressive still decent size. No one seemed to care about he package we bought , we got no tea, no tickets for museum, but finally got a small matchbox size card box with 3 small "cakes" - that is not what i call a package...... |

This hotel has a good location. It is within walking distance of the centro storico where most attractions are located. Yet, it is located in a newer part of the city which is free of the oppressive atmosphere prevalent in the centro storico which is caused by the very narrow streets, thick traffic and the extremely run down buildings. This belle epoque hotel is quite atmospheric. The hotel is not entirely well maintained. We found the curtain fallen down when we were back. |

The staff were pleasant and helpful, quick to offer directions and maps. The hotel was very expensive considering it was only bed, there were no tea etc facilities, all food was very expensive and cover charges on everything. Even bottled water was £6 + cover charge. The area was filthy and beggars seemed menacing at night as they usually had 4-6 dogs running lose with them. It is very disabled unfriendly. |

The hotel has bags of character and charm and all of the staff were pleasant and helpful. It is well situated and there is plenty to see within easy walking distance, just remember to look left when you cross via Roma, I almost got wiped out by a bus! |

The location is excellent, in a very nice part of the city, convenient to all attractions. A mild wish is that they would clean the carpets in the public parts of the hotel. All else is very nice. |

The room was big and they have nicely added the 3rd bed for our 3-year old daughter, free-of-charge. The Staff at the Reception Desk was polite, extremely helpful and reliable. They had prepared take away breakfast bags for us on our departure at 5:45AM, though at our request. The breakfast spread was good. It will be most welcomed if the hotel can provision and provide, though at be at request of guests, kettle or coffee maker in the room. Useful for our case to prepare and make milk for our 3-year daughter. |

Good ambiance, in the center Yes: the breakfast was very poor, bad service, bad coffee (american), poor choice in foods, it is not the breakfast of a 4 star hotel. Probably we will go to an other one next year |

Room was very spacious, comfortable & quiet. Awesome bathroom! The location was also very central--an easy walk to the Archaeological Museum, shopping & restaurants. Breakfast was outstanding. Internet fees seemed rather high. |
