A Peaceful Retreat in Palermo

Had a lovely stay for 3 nights! Discovered a charming café nearby with delightful pastries. As a solo traveler, I appreciated the quiet street during the day but felt a bit uneasy walking back at night. Avoiding the dimly lit areas is a good tip for safety!

Charming host and beautiful decor

I spent 3 nights in a spacious double room with garden view. The location is great, just a short walk from the train station. The host was incredibly friendly and offered helpful local tips. Coffee and pastries were available in the shared area. I felt very welcomed! ☕

The location is very convenient for getting around, especially being

close to the central train station. The room was clean and comfortable, and Giacomo provided us with helpful tips for our visit. However, the mattress was firmer than I prefer, which made for some restless nights.

I had a pleasant 4-night stay in a spacious room with a clean bathroom and a nice little patio. The location was convenient for accessing local restaurants and the train station. However, the mattress was a bit firm for my preference, and I felt a little uneasy walking back alone at night due to dimly lit streets.

Lighting in the room was poor, making it difficult to read or move around without stumbling. The area felt a tad rough around the edges. a 20-minute trek to the center required navigating through busy streets and some unsavory characters on motorcycles. Windows didn’t open easily, restricting fresh air, and there was an odd smell lingering in the room that wasn’t quite pleasant. Wi-Fi was inconsistent, so I often resorted to using my phone's data.

I had a lovely stay at Bella Palermo. The location was convenient near the train station, and Giacomo provided excellent recommendations for local food. The room was comfortable and clean, with a nice view of the small terrace. Communication was seamless, even without meeting in person. Just a bit noisy at night.

Friendly host made us feel welcome.

The noise from the street was quite disruptive during our stay. We found it hard to get a good night's sleep, especially in the room facing the street. Additionally, the shared breakfast area felt cramped, and at times, it became quite noisy with other guests, making it uncomfortable to enjoy our meal.

We had a delightful stay at Bella Palermo! Giacomo, the host, was incredibly helpful and responsive, making our stay smooth from check-in to check-out. The room was spacious and impeccably clean, featuring a lovely bathroom and a small patio perfect for relaxing. The shared kitchen area with coffee and tea options was a great addition, and having complimentary beverages in the fridge was a delightful surprise. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the train station and close to local restaurants serving authentic Sicilian cuisine.

The mattress was a bit firm for our taste.

wonderful stay at bella palermo with thoughtful touches like complimentary sicilian cannoli and prime location near the train station

Giacomo is incredibly attentive, room is spacious, and delightful cannoli welcome.

I truly appreciated the charming decor of Bella Palermo, especially the original 19th-century painted ceiling in my room. The spacious layout and well-maintained shared areas made it very accessible and comfortable for my stay.

A softer mattress would enhance comfort for seniors.

Bella Palermo is a gem! The outdoor dining area was perfect for sipping on coffee while munching on delicious homemade pastries. The host was super helpful, greeting us with a welcome gift and great tips on nearby eats. Plus, the location is a short stroll from the train station and awesome local restaurants like Pizzeria Polleria del Vespro.

Just a heads up, the neighborhood feels a bit rough around the edges, and the shared breakfast facilities could get noisy with other guests. Space for luggage is tight, but we made it work!
