In Palermo, Secrets and Stories Await Around Every Corner

"Transformed by architect Ernesto Basile in the late 19th century, this hotel offers extravagant columns, mirrored spaces, and nude sculptures. Rooms are spacious, and the central location is ideal."

We had a nice stay at this hotel. The common areas of the hotel were well appointed and you certainly felt like you were in a luxury property in the common areas. The room was spacious and clean and the bed comfortable. The hotel is well located for exploring the city. I wouldn’t say that the property felt as luxurious as other luxury properties and the value proposition was maybe not the best, but I think this is just an expensive city to stay in and you can’t avoid paying a lot for a good hotel but not an amazing hotel.

My boyfriend and I celebrated our anniversary at the Grand Hotel et Des Palmes and had a really lovely experience. We had dinner on the beautiful Ouverture Terrace, which was an elegant and intimate setting, perfect for the occasion.|From the start, the staff made us feel very welcome. Everyone was kind, attentive, and made sure everything went smoothly throughout the evening.|Dinner was excellent. We had a three-course meal, from the starter to dessert, and every dish was delicious and well-prepared. You can really tell that a lot of care goes into both the food and the service.|It was a special night for us, and we’re really glad we chose this place to celebrate. We’ll definitely be back!

Beautiful hotel in a central location, walking distance to everything notable in Palermo. The lobby and all the common areas are very elegant and grand in a traditional classic way. The hallways feel a little older than the grand common areas.|The rooms are pretty spacious with light coming through small balconies. The rooms are somewhat standard hotel rooms, but bathrooms are very modern, have nice local products and excellent showers. They have a turndown service which is lovely.|The best thing about the hotel is the breakfast, lots of options, good quality and it is setup in a gorgeous room. A very pleasant way to start your day.|Front desk staff is great with suggestions too.|Overall was a good stay, definitely a great hotel choice in Palermo if you like a classical style lodging.

A lovely hotel in a great location for walking in Palermo. Near enough to walk to the historic center and also close to both Theaters with their lively nightlife. The service was impeccable from the warm greeting at the door through all the restaurants and the reception desk. While there were some maintenance problems, the hotel team worked hard to find a solution. My only recommendation to the hotel is to add furniture with storage. Not one shelf in the bathroom (which was beautiful and large with an amazing shower) nor a drawer for clothes in the bedroom. A large closet at the entry was the only storage. But this inconvenience did not detract from a lovely stay. I highly recommend afternoon drinks and snacks on their rooftop terrace.

Grand Hotel et Des Palmes welcomes you first with it expansive and historic lobby. Guests are well attended at the front desk and all through the hotel staff, from the bellman to servers. The breakfast here is exceptional and offers a wide buffet located grand dining room. The standard room is a bit small. Ask for a room in the rear of the hotel though for maximum peace and quiet in busy Palermo.

A 5-Star hotel no doubt. Beautiful rooms, outstanding service throughout the hotel, courteous front desk and Bell service - service second to none! Cleaning staff are incredibly courteous, thorough, and prompt. Room service is prompt and extremely friendly. Restaurants provide excellent choices and delicious food. If ever in Palermo, this is the place trip to stay! Bravo Grand Hotel et Des Palmes!

This hotel was chosen for us by our tour company (Sicily Activities). |From the minute we walked in the lobby, we loved the elegance of the hotel, the staff was very attentive, and when they escorted us to our room we were very happy with our room. The bathroom was spacious and beautifully appointed. |At dinner that first evening, I was not hungry but the tuna appetizer brought back my appetite. Perfectly seared on the outside with a crust of pistachio nuts. Beautiful red in the interior. The pasta I chose was with vegetables and was delicious. My husband had the rack of lamb and it was very tender. |Dessert.. we shared a connolo…..yes that is not a typo…. It seems more than one are called connoli, but a single one is a connolo😄 |The breakfast was fantastic with eggs prepared in any manner you wished and brought to your table. White tablecloths. Fresh juice, fruit, pastries and many types of breads. |The bar on the top floor had lovely views and great service. We tasted a gin named “Volcano” and made on Mt Etna.|Would definitely return to this hotel again

Highly recommend the Grand Hotel et des Palmes when visiting Palermo. We've stayed there on two different trips now and last month we stayed a total of 5 nights as a part of a large group trip. My guests and I loved the gorgeous, elegant hotel which also has excellent food and terrific service. The hotel is also in a good, safe location and easy walking distance to Centro Storico and shops/restaurants. I enjoyed working with the events team who were prompt, professional, and a great resource for any tour leader. I look forward to working with them again in 2026!

The rooms are so nice and cool! They give you snacks and stuff in a mini fridge!! You feel the AC but not hear it! They have free lemon water at the lobby and there is room service so you can lay in bed and order a pizza. Would rate 103,728,448 stars if I could.

Yea...so this place is a run down, unkept mess. Don't be fooled by the lobby. Once you get to your floor take a good look at the walls and the rugs. Filthy, stains everywhere, looks like they have neglected it for years and years. The cherry on top was on my final night I had a run in with two large roaches (scarafaggi!) in the bathroom. Totally grossed out, couldnt sleep, just wanted to leave. Stay away, in fact, run. bring Raid!

When we booked Hotel des Palmes as part of a New Year's getaway, we looked forward to staying somewhere with history. In its day, this hotel was THE place to hold meetings and rendezvous with the high-profile folk of Palermo. When we arrived, the hotel lobby spoke of better times and felt a bit messy, with a noticeboard of events and fixtures that wouldn't have seemed out of place at Butlin's, but looked very wrong here. The front desk staff were helpful, but not particularly happy folk, and the porter/concierge desk was never once manned. Upstairs, our room was lovely, but the corridors we followed to reach it were depressingly pre-refurbishment. The positive thing is that the refurbed areas have been done beautifully, and when we returned at the end of our Sicilian holiday, we stayed in an even lovelier room than the first. However, the air con was impossible to regulate and very noisy, so that kept us awake at night, and the parking system was equally frustrating as the parking building was a good 10 min walk away and if you wanted your car, you had to ask reception who would phone the parking attendant who would drive the car to the hotel but for some reason this process always had us waiting 30-40mins. Positives - the breakfast room manager was warm and welcoming, the hot chocolate is to die for and the hotel's location is unbeatable. You could do a lot worse than stay at the Hotel des Palmes if ever you find yourself in Palermo.
