A Symbol of Sicily
Edgy and eclectic, Palermo is a symbol of all that Sicily stands for. From buzzing Vespas to the bustling Vucciria market, it simply brims with life.
Wonderful Palermo Cathedral glows radiantly in the Mediterranean sun. Nearby is the city’s last Sicilian Puppet Theatre, and opposite is a palm-filled park housing Roman mosaics, though the best are in the archaeological museum. At one end is the Norman Palace, a government building home to the fabulous Cappella Palatina whose gold mosaics are absolutely breathtaking.
Equally magnificent are the gold mosaics lining 12th-century Monreale Cathedral on the city’s outskirts. Wander the cloisters and note the varying columns and capitals – each pair is different.
Palermo also has fascinating churches: 2 of the oldest are 12th-century San Giovanni degli Eremeti and San Cataldo, each with red, Islamic-style domes. Gesú Church has an incredible Sicilian Baroque interior, while La Martorana’s frescoes are awe-inspiring. A street away is Quattro Canti, a crossroads with a fountain at each corner.
Other attractions include round Teatro Massimo, Mondello beach and Monte Pellegrino mountain overlooking the sea. You get fabulous views of this picnic spot as you fly into Palermo Airport before heading to your Booking.com accommodation.
Enjoyed the many historical sites. Street trash is everywhere and graffiti and broken sidewalks Sad to see beautiful historical buildings poorly maintained. Felt safe and very walkable. Uber worked great when needed.

Fantastic City with great bus transport and lovely people.
Fantastic City with great bus transport and lovely people. The food was excellent. Our favourite place to eat in the day was Capo Market and we enjoyed fantastic seafood there and there was a fantastic atmosphere. In the evening there are loads of choice of eating places in lovely squares around every corner. The city comes alive at night and looks completely different from the slightly decayed look of the city during the day. Although the city has lost its lusture of days gone by, it is full of history character and charm. Make sure you visit Monreale and make sure you visit Mondello Beach. You can get to both of these places easily by bus.

Palermo is a city with so much history as evidenced by the many thematic walking tours. So many monuments, churches, even markets to explore as the city is famous for 'street food' Italian for ... 'street food' :) We walked alot but our first day there was a holiday - May 1 - so we did not experience a full lively Palermo until the following day. If I were to return I would take a historical walking tour to learn about the many civilizations that came to this island and the resulting languages - dialects - that apparently still change from neighborhood to neighborhood. Sicilians are proud of their country and in Palermo they are proud of their city - their pride is contagious!

The architecture, the cultural attractions, monuments, theatres, churches, classic fountains from so many cultural influences was magnificent. It is a completely different sort of holiday in that your days are filled with trips to view their wonderful history. Food is varied but a wonderful culinary experience at good value prices. Restaurants are everywhere!
So different from tasteless high rise hotels in beach resorts with swimming pools!
Palermo & Sicily has character.

Went to Palermo with intention of seeing the Norman mosaics.
Went to Palermo with intention of seeing the Norman mosaics. We saw them but I advise people to be aware that entry to Palazzo dei Normanni is not necessarily available at times tourists might expect so be aware.
The best meal we had there was dinner at I Cucci, Piazza Bologni. Great food at about 50 euro a head with wine

Loved our city break to Palermo.
Loved our city break to Palermo. Lots to see & do especially historical buildings & architecture. Beautiful city, plenty of reasonably priced Hotels & restaurants & not too many tourists
Was the best room we rent in Sicily and general in Italy. The owner she was amazing. Warm welcome and she help us with our luggages. The location is amazing in 5min you are in center of Palermo and the most important monuments. In 2min walking is a free open parking, we park there our car without any issues. Every morning even the breakfast was not included they prepare coffee to my husband. And they clean the room every day. Amazing atmosphere and decoration. Highly recommended. Thank you so much for all those days ❤️
We stayed here a couple of days with our two kids. This modern first floor apartment in a typical “palazzo” is very spacious and well furnished with many details. The rooms have balconies overseeing Via Vittorio Emanuele (lively pedestrian street with plenty of shops, bars, restaurants…). The location is perfect to visit Palermo historical center on foot. The host was very helpful and did everything to make our stay to our liking and needs. We felt very welcomed. It was a perfect start of our holidays in Sicily.
This hotel made our visit to Palermo 100% more enjoyable. It is a historical site with many artifacts and collections which added to the uniqueness of the experience. On top of this the owner and staff were so friendly, helpful and went beyond their means to make their clients happy. The staff and Alessandro alone would make us want to come back. They have accommodated for our really early departure and tours. We were made to feel at home. I would totally recommend this hotel if you are visiting Sicily
It was probably the best apartment i 've ever stayed in Italy. Impeccably clean, with everything one may need for a short stay, and really beautifully decorated with antiques and Sicilian ceramics. Its tiny balcony let us have our morning coffee as if we were part of Sicily's every day life! The owners were friendly, polite and helpful. La Giara is centrally situated, near the bus/train station but still in the very centre of the city's historic heart and most sights.
The host was very friendly and gave some helpful advice about where to eat and shuttle bus to airport etc. When he wasn't there his son was just as friendly . The room was very large,very comfortable and kept clean by a nice lady. The location is excellent for the centre of Palermo everywhere within walking distance. The breakfast was impressive, quality and selection is the best we have had in Sicily. We would definitely stay here again
very spacious three bedrooms and three bathrooms apartment unit. The host family is so considerate. They helped us to find parking garage and provided us with city map with all sightseeings and markets marked. also shared the good local restaurants with us within walking distance and even gave us discount coupon for a seafood restaurant which offered the best cuisine we have ever had in our entire Sicily trip.
Neat apartment close to train station and main sights of Palermo. Good volume. Comfortable, clean. Well equipped kitchen. Place seems to have been recently renovated. Host Massimiliano is very nice. Offers a reasonably priced private commute from the airport, although it's not much faster than the public bus. Good communication from the host. Finally someone who can speak English in Sicily. Good price.
Truly the best room we’ve ever had in Italy. This is actually luxury, unlike many that advertise as such. The linens are incredible- they add a beautiful pillow top to the bed. The pillows are magic. The space is so comfortable we had to force ourselves out. We will stay here again when we return to Palermo. The staff is also wonderful and dealt with issues promptly. Thank you so much.
The property was excellent! The staff enhanced this making our stay awesome! Good location. Nice rooms and great outside patio area. I really can’t say enough good things about property and especially our host. She make excellent recommendations, helped with airport transfer, trip to beach and even breakfast. Best host and stay on our two week Italy vacation!
The location is as good as it gets near the center of the old city of Palermo. The building is modern, room was clean and with comfortable beds. Breakfast was great. Staff was very helpful: we took a transfer from the eastern part of Sicily and the driver was not familiar with the city of Palermo. Staff helped him live over the phone to drop us off at the door.
We used the apartment as our gateway to Palermo/Sicily and the location is perfect for that purpose. Advise: if you are arriving from the airport, get of the bus as close to Via Sant Augustino as possibe and save a long walk from the Central Station. And as she said as we walked through the door: "I could live here!"
Top location 5 mn walk to super convenient airport bus stop, in pedestrian zone, walking distance to all you need to see in Palermo. very nice house, nice room and bathroom, super friendly and efficient staff and owner.
breakfast as good as it gets in most places in Italy.
Great location, short walking distance from all the historic landmarks and the three markets of Palermo. Alfonso is an excellent host, always available to help and gave us great tips on what to do and where to eat. The breakfast was one of the best we had in Sicily!
Dynamite hotel in a fantastic location with great views of the sea, the port, the city, the mountains. The pool, the food, the service was all top quality! My wife tells me we have to go back! Most luxurious hotel in Palermo, maybe all of Sicily. Wow.
I was travelling around Italy and Sicily this spring and Fronte Mare Arenella was the best place I was staying in. Very cosy, clean and homely place. The host Monica was wonderful and helpful and I felt very welcomed. I cannot recommend it enough!
Thoughtfully curated boutique hotel in a great area of Palermo. Rooms are nice, modern, with the amenities you’d expect. Breakfast in the courtyard was wonderful each morning and the restaurant within it was terrific.
Location, location, location. Aside from location though, the room was excellent, the owner was very responsive on bookings messenger, and Wi-Fi was the best we’ve had in Sicily. 60mbps download and 17mbps upload.
The hosts were the best! We talked for hours about Sicily and our lives. The property is perfect, in the most center location of Palermo. Highly recommend this stay!
