The hotel is a charming Old World hotel with a very friendly, helpful staff (especially Salvo, who gave us great advice not only about Palermo but our later destinations). Breakfast was good, with a very nice hostess.
The rooms are well appointed, with plenty of storage. Location is good, near the Centrale station, the Four Corners area, the old city, and the Mercato di Ballarò. Everything you’ll likely want to see is within a mile walk.
The bathroom could have a better shower closure so as to not leak water on the floor, plus a second towel hook. The heating system is old, and they have trouble maintaining even temperatures from room to room, but all you have to do is call the front desk and they’ll adjust your room. Those are minor nits.
I happily recommend the Hotel del Centro.
