5/5 Excellent
"Our family room was spacious and the view over Palermo was beautiful. Breakfast was tasty, with many options, and the staff was helpful. We took the shuttle into the city, which I’d recommend, as driving is harrowing (super narrow streets, aggressive mopeds). Only wish the jacuzzi had been open - we were looking forward to it. They were doing some work on the pools and patio while we were there, probably to prepare for summer. Overall, though, a pleasant stay, apart from the chaos of the city, and overlooking it and the sea. "
"Great experience Terrific value for money! Centrally located in Palermo, the rooms were very nice size and the bathrooms well appointed. Most exciting was the size of the shower (European showers tend to be quite small and this one was decent size) However, the best part about this hotel is the rooftop restaurant. We dined there for dinner with superb service from Natalia! The food, drinks and views were out of this world! Was able to have breakfast there as well (included in rate) Definitely would recommend!"
"excellent hotel, good location close to everything, very willing and friendly staff, excellent cleanliness, good breakfast, excellent wifi. I recommend! Thank you all!"

"Great hotel and staff. We were there for Easter and they made it extra special for my two young children-had a special treat for them in the morning that made their day! The hotel was wonderful and clean and good amenities. I would skip the restaurant upstairs. Breakfast was subpar for what they charge. "
