Kasbah Vacations from $1,087

The only flaws are that the rooms are very small, the air conditioner did not function properly on a hot day and this place is in the middle of nowhere. If you are seeking exclusive this is it

A great boutique hotel in the historic centre of Palermo. The hotel has five rooms - ours was bright, cheerful and spotlessly clean. It had a wonderful ceiling. Staff are brilliant - very helpful and always contactable. The hotel is well situated for all key tourist attractions, the cathedral, fountain of shame etc even the new port area is within walking distance. The hotel is surrounded by numerous restaurants, cake shops etc and the central rail station is only a few hundred metres away. Breakfast was good - a lot of choice provided by a bakery five minutes from the hotel. We stayed for seven days and would recommend the hotel to our friends and family - it is a great place to stay well worth a 5 star rating.

Fabulous location but very expensive for the experience and the food is over priced for its quality and example being salad nicoise ( with no egg )at €32 and €12 euro cover charge ( when it came the anchovies had been forgotten by the chef - how can that happen ! ) Some staff are extremely good and helpful , others a little disengaged !
