Disliked: Room comfort
Good location. Wonderful courtyard and breakfast. Very disappointed with the room - it felt like we had been dumped in the cellar. It was in the back corner, behind the small kitchen that is behind the dining room. It was very dark as it opened out onto the street via an iron gate with dreadful views of graffiti and weeds. We keep the inner door closed so we had no windows. Silly to say it had a terrace. We asked for another room but we were told they were full - although the number of people at breakfast was few.

Comfort and a great breakfast

This small B&B is located in the Kalsa district of the historic area. I felt safe walking from the train station, about 15 minutes. The neighborhood is not touristy, but rather a working class area. But all the more interesting to me because of that. Still there are very interesting places within easy walking distance. And breakfast is amazing.

Good location in historical part of the city

They do not take credit cards, which I didn't know until check out time. Had to go to bank and get cash and it all was an unpleasant happening . The breakfasts were good and you can sit out in the courtyard, which is pleasant. My room had a terrible smell the first day and 2 nights, but they seemed to solve the problem then. I would recommend the hotel, except for the cash only and the strange smell in the room. It is a 3- rating.

A really nice B & B in La Kalsa, Palermo

Located in the La Kalsa district, it is away from noise and traffic of most of Palermo. Easy to find using the hotel's directions on their webpage. A short 15 minute walk from the train station. Average sized but perfectly comfortable room and bathroom. You can eat breakfast outside in a central courtyard. The only negative was needing to log onto their wi-fi each time you use it: the password is posted on a sign in the room. All in all, a really nice place to stay in the older part of Palermo.

Excellent!

We had a family room for four. It was spacious, clean, with airconditioning!, and with comfortable beds. Add to that the friendly service and english language capabilities, and this will be an excellent B&B for your visit to Palermo.

Lovely Authentic Hotel in old Palermo

What can we say, if you want to get the real feel of an authentic old building with modern cons then we recommend this hotel. The owners were amazing as we're the staff. The rooms were had were spacious and great for a family as the children have a separate room from the parents and gives privacy. We would definitely recommend this hotel if for nothing else but just the people that own it and the staff they were fabulous.

Hard to Find, but Worth the Walk

We spent three lovely days at Al Giardino. It's in an old part of Palermo, where the streets are curved and narrow (and, in the case of Vicolo San Carlo, discontinuous), but that's part of the fun and the charm. The B&B itself covers several connected townhouses around a patio that is pleasant for sitting. The rooms, while plain, are decent sized, and the bathroom modern and generous. (Ask for a room not on the street; the windows are double glazed, but the street is noisy when the windows are open.) The current manager (the former proprietor has sold the hotel) is charming and helpful, although everyone needs to work together because her English is only somewhat better than our Italian. But it all works out, and she's very helpful. She even got breakfast going at 7 on a Sunday to accommodate our schedule. Breakfasts are good, with fresh cappuccino available. The restaurant recommendation for Osteria Ballaro was so good we ate there twice!

Really nice little B&B tucked away in the Kulsa district. Spacious room, decent breakfast and an easy walk to restaurants shopping and transportation to get around to the rest of Palermo. I would return.

Hier stimmt außer der Lage leider wenig .....

Die Lage ist super,leider hat das Zimmer nicht wie angegeben eine Terrasse,das Frühstück von 08:00h bis 09:00h ! ist wirklich dürftig, Zimmer mehr als einfach(nennt sich aber Comfort Doppelzimmer), die kostenlosen Parkplätze entpuppen sich als Garage die reserviert werden muss und 15€ pro Tag kostet. Der einzige Trost ist der nette Mitarbeiter der Rezeption.

Après avoir été installé dans une chambre très sombre sans aération extérieure Chambre sinistre et très chère 85 euros pour la prestation,la propriétaire a entendu nos remarques et nous a proposé une autre chambre à l'étage spacieuse et plus aérée .Donc s'assurer avant la réservation de reserver une chambre à l'étage mais plus chère... Le B and B est très bien situé avec un patio pour déjeuner dehors Nous avons garé gratuitement notre voiture pendant 3 jours sur le foro italico ou umberto Pas de souci

Grazioso b&b nel centro storico di Palermo

Siamo stati in questo delizioso B&B durante il Ponte del 25 Aprile. Si tratta di una struttura collocata strategicamente fra la trafficata Via Roma ed il dedalo di vicoli del centro storico di Palermo, a due passi da luoghi di grande interesse, quali la Basilica della Martorana, il mercato della Vucciria, Ballarò, la Cattedrale di Palermo, i Quattro Canti, il Teatro Massimo ecc. Il B&B si trova all'interno di un palazzo storico carico di atmosfera, con un grazioso giardino interno. La proprietaria Signora Donatella ci ha subito accolto insieme al suo simpaticissimo gatto, dandoci tutte le informazioni necessarie per muoverci facilmente nelle vicinanze. Abbiamo soggiornato nella suite, molto grande ed arredata con gusto. Il bagno era pulito e dotato di ogni comfort. La colazione era abbondante e varia nella scelta. Nelle vicinanze ci sono molti ristoranti che offrono i piatti della classica tradizione palermitana, nonché un innumerevole quantità di chioschi, soprattutto nella zona dei mercati, in cui mangiare in velocità un "pani câ meusa"o uno spiedino con la "stigghiola". Siamo stati veramente bene al Giardini dell'Alloro, e speriamo di tornarci presto!

Très bon accueil de Muraly, Hotel agréable

Séjour trop court, 2 jours après le tour de l'île. C'est un bon emplacement pour se reposer, se ressourcer dans le patio. Dommage que l'état de la salle de bain soit mauvais. Si je reviens en Sicile, je reviendrai à B&B dell'Alloro.
