    Our stay at Better & Better had its ups and downs. The location was convenient and the room was clean and new, but the ongoing construction upstairs made it noisy and somewhat unpleasant. Breakfast options were limited to only sweet treats, though...

    Marco gave us a warm welcome. There was also a lovely surprise at breakfast which I don't want to spoil for everyone. The rooms are very centrally located so you can walk to all the sites.

Better & Better
Better & Better is the perfect B&B to enjoy your stay in Palermo with the utmost relaxation and comfort. We are right in city centre, 300 meters from the Politeama and 400 meters from the Massimo. All in a residential area far from traffic, but at the same time close to the major cultural centers. It is the ideal starting point to get around the city without car or bus. Furnished with taste and simplicity, clean and with every comfort, we will make you feel at home as only Sicilians know how to do! All rooms are equipped with air conditioners in summer and radiators in winter, free wifi, 42" smart TV and flowery balcony. Private bathrooms with shower equipped with hairdryer, towel warmers and complimentary products. Guests will have at their disposal a breakfast room with fridge, oven microwave, kettle, Nespresso coffee machine, cappuccino and American coffee machine. You will start the day comfortably without having to leave the B&B, for a small refreshment or a moment of relaxation when you return.
We are at your disposal at any time of day or night to guarantee you the best possible stay. We will answer all your questions and needs, from advice on what to visit, to essential information to enjoy your holiday.
The ideal location to enjoy the silence of a typical residential neighborhood immersed in the center. Close to major points of interest, but at the same time far away from the noise of traffic and the Palermo nightlife. Just 400 meters from the bus stop that from the airport will take you to Piazza Politeama and vice versa. Just a 5 minute walk along the Via Ruggero Settimo (famous shopping area), you will find yourself in the historic center, at the Teatro Massimo and at the beginning of Via Maqueda, a pedestrian area that will take you to the Quattro Canti, in Piazza della Vergonga and the Corso Vittorio Emauele (Cassaro) that from the sea (Cala) crosses Porta Felice and reaches the Cathedral ending at Porta Nuova and the magnificent Palazzo Reale (Palazzo dei Normanni) with its Palatine Chapel one of the UNESCO World Heritage. From our position all the local markets can be reached in a very short time, from the Mercato del Capo to the Mercato della Vucciria and certainly the most famous Ballarò market.
