Why Palermo, Italy Inspires Our Obsessive Devotion

"Palermo is not known for its hotels, but there is one rather fabulous exception: the Grand Hotel Villa Igiea, which will be updated and added to the Rocco Forte collection in 2020. It’s full of old-world seaside glamour with its ballrooms lined in hand-painted frescoes and ocean-view pool, and is walking distance from the city center and promenade."
