Great central location for sight seeing and shopping. Comfortable, clean, modern hotel and found the staff to be extremly helpful both with our stay at the hotel and with advice for travel around the island. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a new hotel close to Politeama at 20 mn walk to the major attractions. Rooms, bathroom are perfect, large, clean and comfortable. Staff is professional, helpful and the breakfast very good. The neighbourhood is the best shopping area of Palermo with some very good traditional restaurants. They miss the charm of the old Palermo but they do their... More

Modern hotel with very well designed and comfortable rooms. Breakfast adequate as long as you crack the protocol of dealing with the somewhat forceful maitre d' who only takes your order if you are sitting down! Location near shops, restaurants, markets and theatres is excellent. Only real negative was the staff's seeming indifference to the lack of access to the... More

We booked this hotel some 5 months before our trip and the week before we departed I looked at recent reviews and was concerned about negative comments.

We were booked into the Hotel Principe Di Villafranca for three nights in late May 2013 but due to a double booking we were moved to their sister hotel, Hotel Plaza Opera, and upgraded to the suite that took up half of the 7th floor.

The two good things first: The location is superb: quiet but central and just a few minutes away from bus stops at Politeama (airport bus, sightseeing bus, public busses) and restaurants (see also there). The reception's staff was very friendly and helpful. However, quite a few annoying items made our stay somewhat unenjoyable: The standard double room was very small... More
