Unìco Boutique Hotel d'Arte

We had the most wonderful time at the Hotel Unico d’Arte in Mondello Sicily . From the moment we arrived the staff were so friendly and helpful . Monica greeted us on arrival and ensured along with the rest of the staff that our stay was fabulous. Our room had its own large terrace and private jacuzzi which was amazing. The pool area is quiet and relaxing and drinks and snacks are available all day long . Breakfast at the hotel was great and the choice of food and hot food was significant. The cappuccino was made to order and not out of a machine. The roof top terrace is open for use all day and evening and there is a jacuzzi up there for use whenever you wanted. The views of Mondello Bay from the rooftop were fantastic and a great place to enjoy the sunsets. The hotel is right on the beach and a short walk from the square where there are many restaurants to choose from. We loved our time here and will definitely return again.

A wonderful hotel! A group of us (10 adults) were in Sicily for a friend’s wedding and we chose to stay in this hotel. What an inspired decision that was as we loved every minute of it. The bedrooms were perfectly fitted out (we even had a bathtub in the centre of our room) and the swimming pool and surrounding seating areas were excellent. ||A particular highlight for us though was the excellent service given to us by all of the staff, including Monica, Rosalba and Megan (Megan also made the superb cakes we had with afternoon tea). They really couldn’t have done more for us - and did so with great professionalism and engaging smiles!||Mondello village itself has a number of really good restaurants (it’s worth checking out the reviews on ‘Tripadviser’). Being so close to the sea, the seafood was invariably fresh and delicious - and of course the pasta was to die for! ||We would definitely recommend this hotel to anybody who wishes to visit Sicily. ||Finally, I would fully endorse the ‘tips’ given by other reviewers:||- have a cocktail on the terrace to watch the amazing sunset;||- catch the local bus (806) into Palmero rather than paying for a taxi/Uber;||- ask the hotel to sort out transport for you to and from Palmero airport; ||and last but not least:||- try Megan’s amazing cakes!

Wow - this boutique hotel on the beach is a wonderful find. Clean, modern rooms (with great showers & comfy beds) - and some great sea views. A leisurely breakfast stretching through to 11am served on the sun terrace under large white shades, plenty of comfortable sun beds around a beautiful pool, evening drinks at the roof bar, all made this hotel so special||What stood out for us particularly though, was the excellent service - Rosabella, Monica & Megan were fabulous - nothing was too much trouble, from freshly baked cakes all day, to some top restaurant recommendations all within walking distance.||Would love to go back!

Wonderful hotel - we were a bit hesitant as we drove through Modello but the hotel is fabulous - yards from the seat our room was really funky. The decor throughout the hotel is super, lots of art and sculpture. The roof top terrace was great for a drink looking over the sea and the yachts arriving. The pool was stunning and delicious breakfast. Secure parking. This is a gem of a hotel.

Firstly, the property is gorgeous! We had a tub in our room that faced the ocean. There’s a rooftop hot tub where we enjoyed a delicious bottle of local bubbles on our anniversary. Secondly, Monica was always very friendly and genuine warm with anything we needed. Anna was incredibly priceless with her help, hospitality as well as translating. Our next trip back, we’ll be staying here again!

I enjoyed our stay here at this hotel. The location is amazing - 5min walk from the beach and to some good restaurants. We had a room with a view and it was great to wake up to. There was a bathtub in the bedroom which was novel to me. Service was amazing. Shout-out to Monica who called multiple places when I lost my passport. I will forever be grateful.

Great little hotel. Clean, comfortable, quiet - away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Plenty of storage, including good counter space in the bathroom (which I found is very rare at many hotels in Europe). Beautiful garden to have breakfast in. I wish we could have stayed an additional day just to relax a day at the hotel. We had to leave very early in the morning, and the person on call made us to-go boxes with exactly what we had requested. The staff was very nice and very accommodating.

Wow, what a wonderful little hotel! We loved it! Visiting as a 40 something couple, child free for the weekend for a big anniversary, the Hotel D’Arte offered us the perfect combination of quiet hotel, small boutique exclusive feel, but within a couple of minutes walk from the bustling Mondello, full of Italian holiday makers! We stayed in the deluxe room and had a hot tub on our large balcony which was wonderful at the end of a hot day! The balcony overlooked the back of the hotel but also had a side view of the sea and the infinity pool! We hired a car from the airport, the hotel took us 30 mins to get to, they have private parking which is wonderful and unique as there is limited parking around Mondello! Driving was a little crazy around Palermo we discovered when we went out and about!! You have to grit your teeth and just go with the craziness! Not what us Brit’s are used to and nothing like other European counties we’ve driven in! The room was a nice size. Modern, clean, bed very comfy, bedding high quality! New modern en-suite, good AC! The staff are very approachable, nothing is too much trouble for them. They were great explaining where to go and how to get there! Breakfast was included and was lovely. With only 9 rooms you feel very well catered for! We’d love to come back!
