Good location, pretty central although you have to walk or take public transportation to reach the main sights
Our suite was spacious and very comfortable.
Nice breakfast on the terrace.
Unfortunately the bar is closed in the afternoon until 5pm, so we couldn't order room service when we wanted.
Although it was a ten minute walk to the bustle of Palermo, I really enjoyed this hotel. It was beautifully maintained, near dining and the sea. The staff was extremely helpful and I did not mind the walk to things in the town center.
Very friendly & efficient staff. I checked in late but staff were on duty and the process was very quick. The breakfast was high quality and served from 07:00. The room was very clean.
