Cari Asrama di Palermo

I spent over 4 hours researching Palermo hotels for what would be our last hotel on our two week European honeymoon. I am so glad I found Hotel Palco. I did note in my booking that we are honeymooning and we got the massive Romeo & Juliet suite. They created a cute display for us which was appreciated. The room was huge, clean, and so comfortable. There are two big balconies that open up onto the theater square. Air conditioning worked great too. It faced directly the Teatro Massimo, and despite the area being pretty rowdy until 2 am, I barely heard anything (with ear plugs). The balcony doors are duplicated and very thick (see picture), and the walls definitely have sound proofing. The tub and shower were perhaps the biggest I had ever seen (see picture) in a European hotel. The tub has jets and lights up too. The staff were very fantastic. I must note that on the morning traveling by train to Palermo I (think) I sprained my foot! Whatever it was, it was bad and I could barely walk. So when I showed up to Palco i needed some way to find crutches or a boot. Stefania was very diligent in helping me find medical care, but we couldnt find anything near by, and just when we were about to call an ambulance to go to a hospital just to get crutches ( Palermo...) they found an ortho supply shop right around the corner and I got crutches and a boot and my trip was saved! Shout out to Giacomo for being so friendly as well and giving me the ice packs at night time! Lastly, breakfast was small (its like a 4 or 5 room hotel), but just perfect for us. Very good quality of the selections. This hotel is an absolute steal in value and I highly recommend it.

Arche Design is a nice place to stay in Palermo. It is more of a B&B than a true hotel, since there is no main lobby and there is not a reception desk staffed 24/7. However, all of the staff were very friendly and attentive. The breakfasts were good, but the buffet was somewhat limited and since the breakfast room is small, you need to reserve your spot for breakfast, which worked out fine, but caused us to plan ahead more than we would have liked to. The rooms are a little tight but in good condition. The bathrooms were very nice. We appreciated that they provided washclothes and the rain showerhead was excellent. It is centrally located and less than a 20 minute walk to most of the key things to see in Palermo. The best part about the Arche Design was the price. We booked 3 rooms for 3 nights and the bill was under $1300, which is half of what we saw at other hotels. For most people on vacation, the Arche Design Rooms is a very nice place to stay at a Wonderful price.

A unique experience in a fantastic building in the heart of the historic centre of Palermo from where you reach in 10/15 minutes walking the city's most important attractions. Also, the seaside is easily reachable by bus and train for a day trip. Excellent management and polite service are always available to help you with anything desired. Our apartment was amazingly comfortable and the terrace was perfect for relaxing or enjoying local food with the family. The bed is a good size and is very comfortable, very important for a relaxing good sleep after a day out in the city. A welcoming B&B in a top spot where we will be happy to return anytime again when coming back to Palermo.

It might have been us not 100% understanding what we were getting ourselves into. First - let’s set the context: if you are looking for an experience of how it feels to live in Palermo - this place is for you. We wanted to have an authentic experience, yes, but also some luxury. We were looking more for a boutique type hotel than an actual B&B in the middle of an all residential area. The room we had was labeled a Junior Suite (“Rosalia” Room 1) and it was right next to the little breakfast area and facing the front street - so very noisy. Vossia is only on the first floor and so, you literally are on the street. We came by car and you need to make sure to get your license plate registered for the restricted traffic areas (i.e. capo market is right around the corner). You can drop your bags and then park your car at a parking garage - just drive around all the narrow streets and don’t let the GPS send you down Via Beati Paoli… that’s where the market is at and you can drive around to make it to Orlando Parking. The location of Vossia is great - literally right behind the cathedral and with many great restaurants in walking distance. The room itself was big and simple - yet nice and clean. Given the price tag of Euro 240 for 1 night however - we were expecting a little more. Essentially Vossia is an old refurbished apartment turned B&B with 5 rooms, a kitchen, reception and breakfast area. It is in an old Palermo house on the frist floor in an otherwise residential building. There is WiFi, the service is great and the room has charme but the price tag is just not justified.

Плюсы: - расположение в 5-минутах пешком от ж/д вокзала, оттуда же ходят автобусы как в аэропорт Палермо, так и в другие города - улица выглядит достаточно безопасной даже вечером, но чистой ее назвать сложно. Район в целом непривлекательный - удобно гулять как в центр, так и в сторону моря. Недалеко есть приятный парк (Villa Giulia). По пути к нему (по стороне отеля), есть неплохой бар-пастичерия Bar Touring (коктейли, кофе, большой выбор пирожных и выпечки, мороженое) - достаточно чисто в номере при заселении (был номер с входом из патио). Видела фото из других отзывов, в моем случае в номере все было в порядке и в рабочем состоянии - хороший, достаточно мощный фен в ванной - завтрак не самый вкусный и разнообразный (варенные яйца, сыр, пару видов мясной нарезки, тостовый хлеб, джем, йогурты, круассаны), но голодными не останетесь Минусы: - плохая звукоизоляция (слышно все и всех, из патио особенно). Если чуткий сон и рано ложитесь или поздно встаете - берите с собой беруши - за 4 дня проживания ни разу не сделали уборку и не вынесли мусор - в номере был большой стол и 4 стула, но нет даже электрического чайника и чашки, чтобы приготовить чай - сотрудников на ресепшен почти никогда нет на месте, большую часть времени он закрыт на ключ.

My room and bathroom were large and the bed and bed linens were excellent. Housekeeping was very good. Mr. Simone was extremely helpful. The location is very central and excellent for many of the sights in Palermo. There is no street noise because the building is back from the street on an arcade. Unfortunately, though, noise from the restaurant next door begins at 8 p.m. and continues until midnight or later and is very audible.

Great location and lovely boutique hotel with delicious breakfast. Would 100 percent recommend to stay here to site see the city. Thank you so much to Martina for your help while we were there to sort of luggage that had not arrived and also you have been a great help even when back to the UK with sorting out something I bought there that is being shipped. I can’t thank you enough ❤️

Siamo stati in questo B&B a Palermo, ottima struttura, camere molto accoglienti con aria condizionata in camera [ ci è servita anche in questo periodo]. Proprietaria sempre disponibile a qualsiasi necessità . La struttura si trova in posizione ottimale per visitare tutta la città. Nell' immediate vicinanze ci sono 3/4 locali dove mangiare tipicamente palermitano . A circa 500 metri dalla struttura troviamo quasi tutti i più importanti luoghi turistici della città. Se dovessi tornare sicuramente ricontatterei la proprietaria Rosy
