Wonderful hotel close to the historical district. The Spa is a MUST!!! Breakfast was incredible. Gianlucca was a helpful concierge. The local restaurants are fair priced and the limoncello spritz are delightfully refreshing!
3-night trip

10/10

We stayed here in May 2025 and had a great time. The room was big and well equipped, but the best part was breakfast on the picturesque terrace (and happy hour there too!). The hotel is also in a good location, roughly a 10 minute walk from the historic centre ( which is good as the centre can get quite crowded!).

It’s our third time staying there we find it convenient to the marina area and to the rest of old town Palermo. The staff is very helpful and the breakfast room and buffet are outstanding

Nice clean hotel close to main centre with lots of restaurants within 5 minute walk. In a quieter part of town so no traffic or nightlife noise. Rooms were in good condition and comfortable bed. Great breakfast options and staff spoke good English and were very helpful. There is no kettle but plenty of coffee shops close by. Would happily stay there again.

Charming Stay in the Heart of Palermo Hotel Porta Felice is a true gem tucked away in Palermo’s historic center. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and helpful, always ready with great local recommendations. Our room was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable, with a lovely balcony view. The rooftop breakfast was a highlight — delicious, fresh, and served with a beautiful view of the city. The location is perfect for exploring Palermo on foot. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a relaxing and authentic Sicilian stay.

Great location and super breakfast with great views towards the mountains from restaurant balcony. Had room just below on 3 floor with great views from back of hotel over the rooftops. Room was plainly decorated but great space and good sized bathroom. No uk TV channels, only Italian! This was only downside, but internet was good if you bring your own laptop. Could do with kettle and tea facilities also.

Lovely hotel a little away from the action. Large comfortable room. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Fantastic breakfast on the roof terrace. Construction noise across the road really hampered our stay.

Nice hotel that is situated in a very good area in Palermo.
8-night trip

2/10

The hotel was way below my expectation for a four star facility. One day, the hotel ran out of hot water due to a serious problem in the boiler without anyone noticing and it took them forever to get it fixed without the management providing alternatives or solutions. Also the hotel is very dim and not in the perfect location in Palermo. Not to forget, the smell of humidity because of the spa is all over the place. The breakfast, such a disappointment.

Fine refurbishment of old building, large well furnished room and comfortable bed. Good breakfast taken on roof terrace.

Properly my worst booking ever! This Hotel is small, lovely with nice rooms, which are clean and needle, so fare so good and the. It’s ends, sadly. It’s position on a second road til the harbour front, NO sea view at all. It has a very noise road just outside belows the rooms, cars, motorbikes, scooters run by your rooms all even until 03.00 am! And streetcleaning and the renovation teams do have their run around 04.00 AM - it’s totally impossible to get a nights sleep unless you sleep as if you are dead! Further to this our television would not turn off, called the reception at 10.00 pm asking for help which not could be provided as he was alone on duty.. or yes in 1 hour at 11 pm maybe… Solution we unplugged the powersupply by our selfies. This hotel is overpriced hugely and will not ever by visited again, ever.

I love this hotel so much I keep coming back. Located in a quiet area near the ocean, this newly rebuilt hotel is clean with a classy modern sophisticated look. The rooms are spacious, some come with swinging doors leading to a balcony. The restaurant serves a tasty breakfast and filling dinner in the evening with excellent professional service. The neighborhood is quiet at night and for the most part, safe. Only a 15 minute walk to the train/bus station and about a 10 minute walk to the center of town.
