“Vittorio gave us a warm welcome to this brand-new B&B, elegantly styled in warm grays and full of eco-friendly touches like a key-card that controls the room's electricity. Parking on site was excellent, and the breakfast included custom-made cappuccinos. The interiors are sleek and contemporary — if you're after old-world Palermo charm, this isn't it, but for a fantastic deal with a luxurious feel at a moderate price, it's perfect. We even stayed an extra day because we enjoyed it so much.”

“The rooms have everything you need — air conditioning, an LCD TV, minibar, and safe. The premium bedding was incredibly comfortable, and the modern design with an en-suite bathroom felt luxurious. The sauna shower was a lovely extra, and the bathroom was spacious with a beautiful shower. The small room in the basement with a whirlpool for six people was a unique bonus, perfect for relaxing after exploring Palermo.”

“Easy to reach, with a perfect location a short walk from good restaurants and both old and new Palermo. Plenty of great food options nearby.”
