“A little Gem on Via Roma”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 April 2009
2
people found this review helpful

When the door opened to this B&B we couldn't believe our eyes. It was like stepping back in time. An Italian hotel particulier of 1900's Italian Haute Bourgeoisie. Theme was Art Deco (authentic pieces belonging to her family) with a touch of modern twist as Rosella (the owner) is a textile designer and put her own modern touch (not too much as it is a well balance decor). The bed was comfortable, the shower was nice and hot and the breakfast was delicious. The B&B was nicely located on via Roma. Just 5mns walk from the Central Station and the airport buses. English, French are spoken in this place and of course Italian. Rosella was very helpful and a good source of information. We felt very comfortable and welcome in this place and Rosella was such a friendly host. It's reasonnably price to. There are 2 rooms in this B&B one with an ensuite bathroom and one with a bathroom at the end of the corridor (you are the sole user of this bathroom but it is not near your room). Wonderful experience. We will come back to this B&B to see Palermo and say hello Rosella and Claudette. Sof.

“B&B at a textile designer”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 November 2008

We stayed with Rosella for three nights. Her home is a a very big upper class apartment with three rooms to rent out. She is a textile designer, which really shows. She is a very nice women who also worked hard to give us a good breakfast.

Try Rosella and her home if you are tired of B&Bs which just are budget hotels.

Very central location with easy walking to most sights.

  • Liked — The hostess. Ask for restaurangs, she knows the good ones
  • Disliked — There is no sign in the entrance at the street

“Great city view, lovely crocheted adornments mixed with tasteful decor”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2008

Rosella speaks hardly a word in English but she makes up for it with her energized antics and creative flair. Once settled you probably won't see much of her, but she has worked her magic to create a funky, fashionable cozy room positioned high above the fascinating downtown Palermo sky line. The atmosphere is romantic and safely private even though Rosella lives somewhere behind the fluttering door curtains down a labyrinth of hallways. At breakfast, you may learn that she has been a designer/model and modestly produces well worn magazine articles that have featured her decor known for its eclectic aristocratic rural country Palermo style.

  • Liked — Unique decor with a great outdoor view
  • Disliked — staff possessed a lack of fluency in a common language
