Palazzo Cartari

We highly recommend this hotel for a stay in Palermo. The location is perfect for exploring the city, the staff were all very helpful, the rooms were modern and very clean with comfortable beds. We will definitely visit again on our next trip!

Lovely experience, the hotel is new, generous in size, strategic location for both leisure and business. I would reccomend a stay there. The bathroom amenities worth to be mentioned. A big thank you to the Team, in particular Loredana and Anastasia, grazie!

We chose this hotel because it’s a new hotel in the middle of the city and had good reviews. We certainly were not disappointed. We had trouble getting our rental car to the hotel in the beginning because of the ZTL zone and closed pedestrian streets. Anastasia was able to get Marcello to assist us getting the car to the hotel and then to have it parked at the parking station. She then gave us very practical advice which was not to drive in Palermo while we were there. It was actually quite a relief as we had been struggling driving in Sicily, not to mention the chaos in Palermo. Our room was spacious with new decor (a lot of gold) which gave it a luxurious feeling. The central location made it very easy to walk everywhere. Silvio at breakfast made us feel special. Thanks again Anastasia for looking after us!

Palazzo Cartari is an upscale hotel in an excellent location. Just one block from the Corso and a couple of blocks from the intersection of the Corso and Via Roma. On a side street with reduced noise but minutes from the main avenues. Very central for walking tours. Relatively new, consequently few reviews. We stayed three nights to tour Palermo before going back to the airport for a car. The hotel is tastefully modern. We had the luck of an upgrade to a suite so we can't speak for a standard room, but found the room well appointed and spacious. Staff was welcoming and attentive. The restaurant, where we ate one night, is actually very good. Overall, a great experience. Would definitely recommend this hotel for its price range. (One non-hotel warning: Note that if you take a taxi from the airport the taxi drivers are likely to set the meter at a higher rate so the fair reaches 70-80 Euros rather than the normal 50 Euros. The hotel will reserve a taxi to the airport for you with known drivers with a fixed rate of 50 Euros.)

The hotel is wonderful and very clean. Room was beautiful. Very comfortable bed. Location is ideal. Ladies at the front desk were extremely helpful. Breakfast was great. We had a room facing the piazza and street. The noise level at all hours of the night did not make for a good sleep. We were awoken constantly by cars and people coming home from bars shouting. It was impossible to get any sleep even with ear plugs. This is not the fault of the hotel as this can’t be controlled, but you should ask for a room at the back of the hotel so you could get a decent sleep.
