Quality Hotel President Palermo  

We were very disappoiinted in the hotel. The hotel was noisy, had a rudimentary closet and 2 twin beds separated by a wall appendage that was to serve as a desk (?).

good night view, near the ship port.

The staff at reception were very helpful. The hotel is conveniently located for the airport bus. There are lovely views of the sunrise from the restaurant on the seventh floor.

The quality of the food at both dinner and breakfast was disappointing. They only started serving breakfast at 7am and at that time there was only a limited range of food (for example, bread). There was no flexibility in this time, even though we had to leave at 7.20 for the airport bus.

We chose the President Hotel initially because it was listed as being close to the Port/Dock at Palermo,.When we arrived off the Ferry from Genova, the Hotel was immediately visible. It is a beautiful, Traditional, Quality Hotel, where we were Greeted and Welcomed on arrival and nothing was too much trouble for the Staff. Although we anticipated a simple Continental Breakfast, it turned out to be a 'substantial', and nourishing Buffet and again nothing was too muich trouble for the Waiter...........Standard of cleanliness and attire was beyond reproach. We were sorry to leave this Hotel, as it was the Best one we had stayed in over the past 10 days, staying in Barcelona, Nice and Sicily. To sum up: Our stay at the President, took 'precedence' over all the others!!!!

We could not fault the Hotel or Staff...........we just wish we could have stayed longer! Simple tea or coffe making facilities in the room, for when cafe/coffee shop was closed, would have a good idea.

It was conveniently located in Palermo.

Would have liked to be able to fix a cup of tea or coffee in the room in the evening/night.

The location from the dock was great. The room very adequate and breakfast was very good.

The fridge in the room didn't work and those linen drying cloths most places have are just not adequate.

The view at the rear of the hotel is third world

Wonderful view on the panoramic restaurant.

The free wi-fi for 30 minutes doesn't exists.

Nice breakfast al buffe, that was only nice thing about this hotel

Everything is rather old, I have no idea how the hotel got 4 stars. The furniture is old and broken, tiles in the toilet are scratched. When we came back to hotel, late in evening, there was 5 big wild dogs on the outer stairs, quite scary. The receptionist said they was from the parking. Btw, the parking costs 12 euros per night

The location is perfect for those who are going to leave Palermo from the port early morning, it's relly some steps from the port entrance. The stuff of the hotel speaks English and was very friendly.

The hotel is situated near the street full of clothes shops, but it's near impossible to buy something like shampoo there.

The hotel is near the port and near city center, but a bit far from the train station (~2km). The room was ok, a bit outdated but clean. The brakfast is typical hotel breacfast but very good.

The time stopped for this hotel in late 70's when it used to be a 4 star hotel, the windows were not cleaned since then. The towels in the bathroom were actualy table cloths, very very wrong!! I had the worst coffee in Italy and maybe the world in this hotel. But overall if you want a descent hotel near the city center would recommend

Excellent location in relation to port and ferry services. Excellent breakfast. Great value for money.

We got a twin rather than the double we ordered. Staff explained we were getting a view of the port with the twin which was correct.
