Hotel location
“Borgo Vecchio” is one of the four historic markets in Palermo along with “Ballarò”, “il Capo”, “la Vucciria”. In the very heart of the most evocative part of the city, Borgo Vecchio is the sixteenth-century district which was originally inhabited by sailors and fishermen, but later developed thanks to the immigration of craftsmen and businessmen, which provided it with its lasting mercantile character. Today it is also one of the favourite meeting area for young people.
Borgo Vecchio rises among the port, the shopping area and the historic centre, which makes it the best starting point to fully enjoy Palermo. The best-known monuments and attractions, from the Medieval Age to the Contemporary one, are easily reachable by foot. Ten minutes walk to the third biggest theatre in Europe, i.e. Massimo Theatre, and five minutes walk to the Politeama Theatre, jewel of the 19th century architecture. Shopaholics will love going around Via Libertà, Via Ruggero Settimo and Via Roma, which are the best-known streets for every kind of shopping. The most exigent gourmets will enjoy the best Sicilian and international dishes in the restaurants and cafés located in the area.


Hotel room/Accommodation
All 32 rooms are joyfully colourful, soundproofed, parquet flooring, air-conditioned and furnished with poster-bed, internet wireless connection, LCD television with Sky channels, PayTV, minibar, electronic safe and direct phone.

The location is excellent, one is fast to foot everywhere. The evening market around the hotel and enjoy the hustle and bustle of the locals. All every night builds as a butcher and a charcoal grill on its roll roast pork roasts definitely try! Palermo pleased us at the second glance was very good and the residents and businessmen around the hotel are friendly and hospitable waiters. We could never imagine, so as to live in this city.

The hotel lies in a typically Sicilian populated area, nearby the shopping streets via Roma and via Maqueda/via Ruggero Settimo. Several small business in direct proximity.

Our room 704 to „round corner “was sufficiently largely and well equipped. Beside the large bed a cabinet with inserted safe, a small desk, and an LCD television with Satellitenreceiver (severa...

Price/performance ratio was extremely good. The hotel was booked with with Hofer travel (flight and four days = 350 euro). Breakfast for Italian food. Very friendly staff. Room small but very beautiful. Please note: it is a large room with very small shower. As a base for exploring perfect. Read more
