Marcella was the perfect hostess, collecting us late at night after our original booking fell through elsewhere. Despite our poor Italian, we got on very well! The B&B is very comfortable, clean and in a great location for the main sights in Palermo, with lots of nice restaurants in the area. The cathedral is about a 10 minute stroll away,... More

Really slick, clean and classy hotel right in the historical centre. Vincenzo is an absolute star who will help you plan your whole trip! On one of the days we did a day trip and had problems getting back and he was on call throughout the day to make sure we got back alright. The only downside is that the... More

We stayed at this B&B for two nights in mid-September and booked based on the fabulous TA reviews. I was surprised on our arrival about a few things that are not mentioned in the reviews, that I wish we would have been made aware ahead of time. The most important thing to note is that the balconies and the rooms... More

Our guests know that WE do not deserve this kind of review. We have always treated in a special way in the ladies "pregnant". We were kind, hospitable, generous and caring. If then a pub (and we can not know before) organized a party with music this is our fault? If no one has written before has probably never happened... More

This little place is a great find. The rooms are really clean and it's in a fantastic location. However the best part of the stay was the level of service from the owner who really went the extra mile explaining the must see sites and restaurants. I wanted football tickets to watch Palermo and rather than just booking the tickets... More

Vicio is very friendly!We enjoyed the B & B it was in a great location! Siciliy has a lot to offer so we rented a car. Be prepared to carry luggage up steps. It was a bit difficult and the lights in the hallway must be turned on by you to preserve energy. Would have liked a more thorough orientation... More

Charming spot, very helpful staff, perfectly located in the center of historic Palermo. The room we stayed had an amazing terrace plus a roof deck, both with stunning views, especially at night. It's a little quirky - the bathroom is tiny, the shower is small and practically on top of the toilet, and the room we stayed was a winding,... More
