Maruisa suite apartment - appartamento di lusso al centro storico

Excellent location to walkable sights. Very authentic in an old palazzo and renovated beautifully. Marco was very helpful with a great driver and local restaurant suggestions.

I wished there was a teapot to make tea in and a few more dishes. The shower was beautiful but we had difficulty using with out getting water everywhere.

Good location. Stylishly decorated. Friendly and helpful host and an efficient check-in.

The apartment was spacious and newly renovated The terrace was large with good furniture. We enjoyed it a lot.

Unfortunately the apt is located in an area that didn’t feel comfortable walking at night. A little out of the way and the streets were unkept with refuse.

The apartment itself was great—well-equipped with all the necessary amenities, comfy bed and I especially loved the terrace. Its location in the heart of the city made it incredibly convenient, with the market and main attractions just steps away.

Unfortunately, the apartment is located in Ballarò, which felt unsafe, particularly at night. I wouldn’t recommend staying here as a solo woman traveler. Also, the apartment shows its age a bit and has a slight musty smell; a refresh or light renovation could really enhance the overall experience.

Hidden behind a huge wooden door, off a downtown narrow street, Maruisa is a perfectly and imaginatively restored apartment in an old Palace. The amazing bathroom and the arched ceilings hint at a former age, while the rest displays the best of minimalist modern style. The large terrace, with the distant hills rising above the jumble of city rooftops, is a lovely calm place to sit at the beginning and end of a day’s sightseeing. The location is in ‘real’ Palermo, not a tourist area, and very near the main attractions of the Duomo and the Norman Palace. Marco was very friendly and welcoming when he met us on arrival and quick to respond on WhatsApp to a couple of queries we had later. This is an exceptional place and if we return to Palermo we would definitely stay here again.

The area is downtown - very convenient for top attractions but be aware, the streets are quite dirty with piles of rubbish in places. Don’t be put off - this is typical of much of Palermo and it didn’t spoil our visit. Faded splendour and dereliction on the outside go hand in hand with magnificent interiors and fascinating history. There is great beauty if you look for it and we had a wonderful visit.

Very good place. Highly recommended.

This is a very comfortable apartment with good facilities and a nice terrace

The area is a little edgy and it was difficult to find

We liked everything about Maruisa Suite. The design of the apartment is stunning, and Marco is a very kind and flexible host. We felt so comfortable here, it's quiet in the night (which in Palermo is hard to find), the bed is super comfy and the roof terrace is amazing. We loved waking up to the sunrise in the bedroom, and then having the sun on the roof terrace for the rest of the day. The views over the roofs of Palermo, the churches and all the way to the mountains are so panoramic. The bathroom is the most beautiful I've ever seen. Perfection.

Nothing. The only "negative" thing is that we wanted to spend a lot of time in the apartment and on the terrace, so we didn't get to explore as much of Palermo as we wanted to :)
