9.6/10 Exceptional! (37 reviews)

Let’s begin by saying how beautiful this hotel is. You are literally close to everything. Second the staff is probably the best you will find at any Hotel. The level of comfort is second to none. If your from another planet you will feel at home there. Breakfast was excellent.

The hotel has charm but for $1000 a night I expected much more so was disappointed. Room was spacious and bathroom was very nice but room was basic. Carpets throughout entire hotel were stained and dirty. It is centrally located and walking distance to main attractions.

Ballaro Market

4.5/5(59 reviews)

Buy freshly caught fish, eat Sicilian specialties and search for vintage clothes at a market that has been serving Palermo's residents for centuries.

The best views over magnificent Palermo are from the bell tower of the church [and I'm talking here about the best way I could have spent 2 EUR!].
You must wear a helmet, which ends up as a very stylish accessory.
