This is a good, basic, centrally located pension/hotel in a big city. Our room was quiet, but that was in part because it looked out on a somewhat decrepit side street and into someone else's apartment across the street. As other reviewers have noted, the hotel consists of two floors of a big building in a central area of Palermo.... More

Really friendly desk staff and the hotel is set back off the main thoroughfare so it's nice and quiet. The rooms were large and very clean and comfortable. At thirty euros a night, this was a total bargain. We woke too late for breakfast but great to have a nice late sleep after having a nightmare in our previous hotel.... More

I stayed at Elite for 3 nights from 22-24 Sept 2009 in room 505 as a solo traveller and paid EUR55 per night via Booking.com. I found this accomm via Booking.com so no "real" photos to go by and nothing much on TA - it was somewhat of a pot-luck choice. The hotel is on level 4 & 5 of... More

We stayed with 4 friends at Hotel Elite during a week-end. Arrived at Palermo late Friday night, left Sunday morning. As we arrived by rental car, it was great to have the possibility to keep it for a €12/day in the safety of the hotel´s underground parking. The rooms were clean, well equipped, nicely and cosy decorated, the staff were... More

With just one day and night to explore Palermo, this hotel was the perfect choice. Upon arrival you are greeted by modern frescoes along the stairwell and foyer. The woman at the desk was extremely nice and helpful in giving us a map and telling us the highlights to see. She also recommended a place for lunch that was authentic... More

Hotel is in the centre of the city in a building with several other hotels. You take the lift to the 5th floor to the hotel. Found the female staff very friendly and helpful, but one male staff member wanted to charge us a fortune for a tour because there were not enough people booked for it. We declined. Breakfast...

We spent three nights in Hotel Elite & this was a find indeed. Our room 503 was spacious, so was its bathroom. Every hotel staff was very helpful and polite whenever we asked the info needed. Thanks to the proper advice by hotel staff, we explored around the city every morning as early as 6am. Three markets worth visiting; Vucciria(fish),... More

Above average 3* hotel in a great location. I agree with most of what's been written in the 2 earlier reviews. It has a homely feel once I get off the elevator on the 5th floor. Our triple room, also on the 5th, was quite spacious, and has some sort of a view of the mountains over the roofs of... More

This is essentially a hotel for corporate business travellers and for others with very specific personal interests that draw them to the commercial centre of Palermo. And that is why we selected it - because of its proximity to the Teatro Massimo where we were attending an opera performance (a personal achievement for me - I've been wanting to go... More
