ibis Styles Palermo President

"This is a budget hotel, located in front of the ferry terminal, but a short walk from Teatro Politeama. The reception looked nice, but the entire hotel (including my room) was built a long time ago, its design looks like it is from socialist times. However the bathroom was recently renovated which was a plus, the bed was comfy and TV was decent. All the rest is super dated (but clean), there is no insulation from the corridors - the tile flooring and thin 30+ years doors just don't match the hotel category, moreover the a/c unit was noisy. If you check the TA pics from hotel management, you will see my room looked nothing like those... The area behind the hotel (Borgo Vecchio) is a gritty, run-down neighborhood that’s been badly neglected, with safety issues even during the day! There is 4.5€ city tax n/p which could be used to clean the whole city with bleach. I haven't seen anything so dirty as Palermo in my entire world travels."

"Excellent location because you can get to the center in a moment, there is parking. Small but cute room, Ibis style, harbor view that can even be charming, but dirty! Upon arrival, it smelled of smoke, better not to look at the dust and stains on the floor... I'm sorry but the cleanliness needs to be improved. Standard breakfast with frozen sweet products that were semi-raw, evidently due to the rush to take them out. Very courteous staff."

"Exquisite kindness and friendliness, comfortable and spacious room, the breakfast service is perfect, there is everything and more, all high-quality food, then the waiters Irene and for dinner Antonio, professional and helpful people with kindness to spare, then 2 sentences for the chef Marino, high-quality and abundant cuisine, always perfect cooking, dessert with his cannoli, what can I say, we will be back next year, they pampered us for 10 nights, well done everyone from the reception to the dining room, the floor maids were perfect and absolutely helpful, see you soon"
