Upgraded to Junior Suite, breakfast is excellent, the farm-to-table philosophy truly shines here. However , at dinner , while the atmosphere and service were exceptional, I found the steak to be a bit underwhelming. That being said, the staff were very attentive and sent ice cream to our suite. I’m sure this was just a one-off and I would still consider returning for another dishes in the future.
The hotel is located in the heart of the city centre and is located in the heart of the city centre. I would like to point out that I was surprised by the kindness and availability of all the staff, no one excluded, which is not expected.
The room was very compact, but the staff were very helpful. The view from the balcony was beautiful, and it was a wonderful stay. The hotel was close to the main street, so I was able to go back to the hotel and rest. All the tourist sites in Taormina, including the bus terminal, are within walking distance. If I visit Taormina again, I would like to use this hotel again.
It was very nice and the decoration and Furniture was very antique and nice. The rooms were nice and had clean sheets and Two TV’s. The bathroom as well was very clean and nice although there was no toothbrush holder. Besides the rooms the Hotel had amazing breakfast service and very clean nice courtyards and a Poll and Scuba diving, They also have a Spa and restaurant. An Overall amazing Hotel, The only downside was the location being far from the City but with horrible Traffic inside the city it was nice to be a little bit away from the city center.
This time we were given room 103, which is a double bed room with a terrace where you can go out and sit outside to drink tea. You can also see the sea in the distance. We were very lucky. The room was very good overall. The toiletries in the bathroom were from the Italian niche brand - CULTI. Former British Prime Minister - Churchill also stayed in this hotel. I personally quite like this hotel.
Struttura non rinnovata, pur in ottima posizione. Letti abbastanza scomodi, poca insonorizzazione riscaldamento poco funzionante. Lato peggiore la colazione con prodotti di bassa qualità e poco assortita.

The hotel is located at the very end of the main street. For those taking the bus up the mountain, you'll need to walk about 1.2 kilometers to reach the hotel. Although old, the common areas have been largely renovated and are well-maintained. The high ceilings make for a comfortable and pleasant experience, and the staff are friendly. I even had a room tour of my single room. The hotel's extra services are above four-star standards, including a spa, lunch, bar, and dinner (though I didn't try them).
The guest area inside the room looked older, but it was spacious enough. It came with a small terrace with a sea view. The bathroom seemed renovated, and the fixtures were relatively new.
The Western breakfast was standard, with smoothies available. (I was confused because it didn't include breakfast when booking, but I was told it was included when I checked in.)
The hotel has a small garden with a beautiful pool at the end.
By the way, the city tax is a bit steep, at 4 euros per person per night.
Very Good

GGalina EfimovaMy First Hostel Experience — And It Was a Blast!
Ostello Bello Palermo was my first-ever hostel stay, and honestly — it was an amazing surprise! At first, I was placed in a room with all guys, but when I asked to switch, the staff quickly and kindly arranged a change for me. Each room has 11 beds and 2 showers, and everything was super clean, which I really appreciated. The common area is lovely — warm, welcoming, and full of life. That night, there was a DJ party that lasted until 1 a.m., and sleeping was definitely not an option… but I was in the spirit of experimentation, so I just went with it and ended up dancing and having a great time. I met some amazing local musicians who were born in Palermo, and we had such a fun night hanging out and talking. It felt like a truly authentic and spontaneous experience. Breakfast was tasty, with a good selection. The staff were incredibly kind and friendly — especially one guy at the reception (I wish I remembered his name!) who was just the sweetest. Thank you for making my first hostel stay so special. I’ll never forget it 💛
TThanyalakWe stayed for 2 nights and kind of got a different experience on both nights.
It was in the summer time during weekday stay.
On the first evening we ate at the restaurant and it was very good set menu and food. There was also a party in house. So we decided to eat again the next dinner but turned out we were the only guest staying that night and were the only one dining in…. So food was not so great compared to night before.ore basic and simple dishes.
But it’s understandable, when the chef has to prepare meal just for us….
The place is busier in the weekend with locals.
And some days the pool is packed with people who joined for the day-pass.
Activities advertised on Facebook for children are also mostly on the weekend.. again we had a baby and felt a bit disappointing while we were there for the lack of activities during the weekday.
The grounds are lovely tho, garden, vineyards, olive trees, swimming pool.
CCourtneyWe had a fantastic stay at this quirky little boutique hotel in Palermo, Sicily. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Even though we showed up earlier than planned, they had no problem letting us in and went out of their way to accommodate us.
We were offered a massive breakfast completely free of charge while we waited, which was such a generous touch. Not only that, but we were also invited to relax by the pool until our rooms were ready — a perfect way to unwind after traveling.
The atmosphere of the place is relaxed and a bit offbeat in the best possible way — full of personality and charm. It’s rare to find a place where the customer service feels this genuine. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a warm, welcoming, and slightly unconventional stay in Palermo!

GGuest UserWe were there two months ago and now we returned with our daughter especially for the wellness center, the only difference and that compared to before it was unlimited now is 70 minutes and we have to do everything quickly. Clean but small rooms and the third bed was a bed chair, excellent breakfast with wonderful view, recommended.
