No complaints! It is important to be aware that you share the apartment with another guest room - each with it's own private bath.

The flat was more beautiful than pictured, located in a bustling part of the city across from the opera house.

There are a few stairs to climb.

Location, location, location. Heritage building with lots of character. Had shared space with other guests but this was not a problem as met other travellers who were lovely. The view from the balcony overlooking the theatre was lovely. Has your own bathroom and room was a good size,

Beautiful flat with amazing original features. Very spacious. A joy to sleep in and fantastic view of the Opera House over the road. Gabriella was a fabulous host. Her recommendations are definitely worth listening to. We would definitely return.

Ok for us but as advertised in the description, lots of steps and no lift so difficult with heavy luggage/ less mobile guests. It is in the busiest part of town so can be noisy but there are rear plugs and the doors and shutters do a good job sound proofing. It wasn’t an issue for us but should be noted, as listed. The benefits of the location outweighed the noise for us.

Fantastic character - historic building with unique fittings and furniture. Location was incredible. The view from the balcony was just amazing. Communication with Gabriellla the host was great- so welcoming and allowed us to leave our luggage after checkout which was very kind.

There is not anything we did not like. However you should know it is 65 steps up ( which gives you the wonderful view). And you share the common are with another guest. Which was no problem for us.

Perfectly located with a wonderful view of the Teatro Massimo! Amazing frescos on the ceiling.

The location was the absolute best, right opposite the Opera House and in the middle of the old town. Everything so close and easy to get to. Just loved this apartment. Gabriella and her husband were superb.

Gabriella is a fantastic host who owns a magnificent large historic apartment in the centre of Palermo. We received some excellent restaurant recommendations that were close by.

As per booking filter the hotel offers parking which is not the case. There is a parking lot within 5min walking which costs 25 euro per day plus ZTL fee per daily usage and is being monitored all night. Street parking in the area was not recommended, but could be a cheaper option.

Great Location in the Center of Palermo. The apartment is in a historic building and feels well maintained . There is a kitchen for open usage. Room has an AC and a small balcony. Internet connection is solid and can be used for video calls if needed

The only minuscule thing I could even comment on were that the pillows were quite hard and difficult to sleep on but that’s just a personal preference and definitely does not take away from the amazing experience !

The location was absolutely incredible. It was booming around us, always people in the piazza so felt safe at night. A quick bus ride to the train station which was really handy. The interior was stupendous. The pictures didn’t do it justice. Original al frescos and don’t get me started on the view from the balcony. Gabriella the host as extremely helpful and gave us tips on where to go to avoid overly tourist trap areas. Grazie Gabriella, a La prossima!

Quite a few stairs but I thought it was worth it! Also our host gallantly carried our luggage down on departure :)

Classic marble, fresco ceiling, beautiful, host was wonderful. She bought me a birthday cake!

We had such a good stay at this apartment, location is unbeatable. It was fun sitting on a balcony and watching street life below. The apartment is more for the experience and character, rather than modern facilities. Gabriella is a very nice host, welcoming and friendly.would stay here again without a doubt.

Great location, very cool historical property. Host Gabriella is on site and helpful should you need anything.

This is a popular area! There was a concert on our last night that went until after midnight. Again, you choose this property for the location which is mostly positive unless you need to go to bed early. Gabriella has provided ear plugs which was thoughtful.

The location and view were amazing, and the historical touches were gorgeous (painted ceilings, original marble flooring). Gabriella is warm and welcoming, and wants her guests to be comfortable.

The best location in Palermo opposite the Opera House. Sumptuous and palatial.. Gabriella is very warm and friendly.

I had a truly wonderful stay in this exceptional apartment, right opposite the stunning National Opera House. The location is unbeatable — central yet peaceful — and the apartment itself is full of charm and character, with beautiful frescoes on the ceiling, elegant furniture, and lovely colours throughout. It felt both luxurious and comfortable. Gabriella was a truly outstanding host — warm, gracious, and genuinely beautiful inside and out. Her hospitality made the experience even more special. There are fantastic restaurants nearby, or you can simply grab a delicious pizza and enjoy it in the calm of the apartment while looking out over the square. Palermo is a city full of life and history, and this is a perfect base for exploring it. I can’t recommend it enough!

The stairs were a bit difficult with suitcases.

Gabriella gave us an extraordinary experience. We stayed in a wonderful location surrounded by history..
