    If you are travelling with your own/rental car, this can be trickly. Firstly there's restricted zones which you must avoid and it's not easy to know (even with Google Maps) which roads are allowed and which roads are not allowed. You need to buy the restricted zone access everyday you wish to take your car out/in. Moreover, parking is a stress at the hotel - there's always a military car waiting near the hotel entrance asking you to move your car immediately even before the Vallet comes to park your car.

    The property itself is a gem. It's like living in heritage property. The location is fabulous and absolutely in the midst of most happening place but yet private and calm. Staffs are fantastic!!! Finally, breakfast is really good and the ambience is such that you would want to sit and enjoy your morning coffee to the fullest. Rooms were sufficiently big for our needs, clean and overall very happy with the stay.

    Smoking allowed in lobby. Had to pay an extra person charge when we were just two people (husband and wife) in a room with a king-sized bed. Was told the price I was quoted was based on one person only. Our room was already pretty pricey so with the added fee it was fairly expensive.

    Beautiful rooms and hotel. Quiet location. Extremely clean room with beautiful linens.

    We have stayed here several times over the last 15 years and are sad that the level of service has declined considerably. At reception there was a long wait for check out as THREE staff dealt with one group of guests who were querying a booking. It was only when I asked a member of staff in an office to help us that we finally settled our bill. Trying to be served a drink in the courtyard was time consuming and unnecessarily stressful. Come on! We are your guests- treat us with respect!

    This is an incredible hotel! The building is amazing. The rooms are beautiful and so quiet. Breakfast is a feast and the staff are attentive and efficient.

    It was a beautiful hotel in an excellent location. I loved that it was unique since it was in a historic building that had been turned into a hotel. The rooms were comfortable and not cookie-cutter. The staff was very helpful and pleasant.

    Few number of staff were not friendly like their colleagues.

    Being a more than 200 years old building converted into a very beautiful hotel with specious old fashioned yet modern rooms. Location was super excellent and courtyard is peaceful. However, Price was high.

    There is valet service, but driving through the alleys of downtown Palermo to reach the hotel is not that great.

    Traditional hotel with a very professional staff. Rooms are spacious and quiet. The position is very central. Breakfast is memorable (don't miss the caponata and the ricotta).
