Great hotel
Pros: Location was excellent. Close to beach and square . The bus to Palermo was just outside The room was very comfortable. There was a very good variety for breakfast. The pool area was lovely and I loved the seawater pool.. The dining room had a fabulous view as did the lounge and lovely comfortable furniture in the outdoor area. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Cons: There was not a lot of information available on what to see and do in the area, tours etc. There was a kettle in the room and coffee and tea provided however there were only paper cups.

I would always recommend this hotel to friends .
Pros: We have been very pleasantly surprised by the hotel , especially by the extremely competent , helpful and friendly staff. You can't beat the location...but we also have to mention the perfect service and the great breakfast.Great starting point for runs ( or hikes) , great to finish them with a dip into the sea directly at the hotel. We will for sure be back.
Cons: Only critic point : The gym could use some maintenance ....

Like a separate island in the crowded city!

Cons: The old style of the hotel, like carpets, wc equipment, furniture.

Pros: This is a lovely hotel, showing signs of age but still exuding plenty of charm. The range of facilities, including the pool, room balconies, diving platform into the Mediterranean, convenient parking, and exceptionally helpful staff, were greatly appreciated. The hotel is superbly located, just a short walk into town, where we enjoyed the lively restaurants and atmosphere. Notably, the sea around the hotel was refreshingly free of the sewage odour that was prevalent in the beaches nearby Mondello, just a four-minute walk away. While the property would certainly benefit from investment to restore it to its former glory, we enjoyed our stay and would happily return in the future.
Cons: When there is a refurbishment of the rooms, it would be good to change the bed linen : in today's hospitality industry, the use of bedspreads or coverlets, and unwashed blankets in wardrobes, is becoming increasingly outdated. Guests, ourselves included, prefer not to sleep with linen that may have been used by others. Hotels that provide duvets with removable, washable covers, ensuring that guests sleep in freshly laundered bedding without decorative cushions or bed linen used by previous visitors, are setting a higher standard of cleanliness and comfort. The practice of using bedspreads and cushions that have been handled by prior guests is deemed vintage and no longer acceptable. This approach is the way forward in meeting modern guest expectations.
