Excellent hotel. I have a gluten sensitivity and am also a diabetic on a blood sugar sensor. I am nearly impossible to feed. There were abundant gf options on the breakfast buffet, and I was also able to get a hot gf breakfast prepared for me. The omelets were delicious, and I could get a cappuccino every morning, all included. The wait staff was knowledgeable about gluten and kept me safe. I got a hot stone massage at the hotel spa. It was excellent, and inexpensive. In general, the hotel is beautiful, and architecturally interesting. My room was very comfortable, and the view from my room is in the hotel brochure. I highly recommend this hotel.

The experience was truly disappointing. The towels were worn and torn, and the hair dryer seemed extremely outdated—likely from decades ago. I’ve traveled to Europe over 15 times, and I’ve never stayed at a hotel that didn’t offer an espresso machine. Here, they only provided a basic coffee maker that boils water, and you’re expected to use instant coffee. At breakfast, when I requested salt and pepper, they were provided in single-serve packets, which felt a bit underwhelming. The bathroom setup was inconvenient, with a bathtub and no fixed showerhead, only a handheld option. Overall, I’d have to rate this hotel as one star.

Beautiful hotel in old stock exchange building, very convenient to explore historic Palermo on foot- just off the main pedestrian steet with lots of restaurants. Rooms are spacious and clean. A few items lower my rating- there was no toilet paper in the room on arrival had to ask for them to provide. The room was freezing cold even with air conditioning turned off cold air came through vents - we had to open windows but had to close at night or it would be too noisy. Steer noise in evening but it got quiet by midnight. Also internet was not available in the room even though we made multiple attempts to log in- no signal- had to sit on a chair down the hallway or in lobby to get internet.

A big wonderful old building that was converted from a bank. My gripe is that traveling solo I was given the runt of the litter as rooms go. After complaining a lot - and the strength of the tour I joined - I was given a very nice room and would rank the hotel much higher if they hadn't played games with me to begin with. At the end of the tour, I returned to the hotel for one night and they tried to give me the same unacceptable room (323 or 332). I ended up with an OK room but the shower was so small, one had to squat to pick up shampoo... too small to bend over. Breakfast buffet was satisfactory. Dinner disappointing.

There is a surcharge for use of the hotel spa and sauna which is quite expensive per hour. This is unusual for a hotel rated four stars. The swimming pool is not located on the premises but at a sister hotel some distance away, again disappointing for a four star rated hotel.

Excellent property in the heart of Palermo. I stayed here only for 1 night but their room was nice - not very spacious, but good enough for a single occupant. I loved the central area inside the hotel that's partially open to the sky. Nice place to sit and relax. The internet connection is good. Breakfast was good and staff at breakfast were prompt and welcoming. Their reception staff was a bit underprepared and i felt thry should not have asked for my credit card especially if i had slready paid in advance. The girl at the front desk told me in a jocular vein, "This is just for security. What if you run away?". I didnt know whether to laugh it off or to be disappointed. Maybe i should have adjed her, "What if you guys didn't live up to my expectations?" Would you give me a refund! Some silly policies they have which unfortunately makes an otherwise good stay bittersweet.

The night we checked there was no water. The desk manager assured us it would take no more than 15 minutes to resolve because it was due to someone turning the water off. More than 1.5 hours later, water finally flowed and it was absolutely disgusting It was still brown and full of particles the following morning. We were at the hotel fir an entire day before being able to shower. Later we were informed that the problem was in the entire hotel so the time estimate for repair was a total misrepresentation. The front desk staff were rude during the entire stay but the bell staff and restaurant staff were extremely pleasant The location was good for reaching various sights
