Guest Reviews

• Low (9/5): - Location Plumbing
• Ana (10/5): O melhor sítio para se ficar em Cefalu! - Sinceramente adorei tudo no Palazzo Maria: o apartamento que era espaçoso, confortável e com uma decoração muito típica da Sicília. A localização era incrível, mesmo no centro. O Nikolai foi também muito simpático na nossa receção. Nada a apontar.
• Dennis (10/5): -
• Ralph (8/5): -
• Denis (10/5): Great location, comfortable apartment - Great central location, plenty of space in the apartment Remote from parking, but that’s a function of the lack of vehicle access in the centre of Cefalu
• CLAUDIA (8/5): - La localisation, la terrasse avec vue montagne, cathédrale et mer Voisins très bruyants
• Elena (10/5): - Place Nothing
• Andrea (7/5): -
• Shell (10/5): Large Apartment on Central Square - Location on the square. Large shared patio.
• andreas (10/5): We loved the experience! - The location, the building, the room, the view, the decoration etc... nothing
• Jean (10/5): - Best location in town with amazing view on the duomo Very welcoming Nikolai Spacy appartments
• Giovanni (9/5): Centralissimo vista Duomo - La posizione centralissima e un meraviglioso terrazzo vista Duomo. Qualche difficoltà nell'utilizzo dei climatizzatori
• Andrew (9/5): Very happy - Great location and view
• Nicolas (8/5): Top emplacement à Cefalu - Probablement l'un des meilleurs emplacement de Cefalu. A proximité de tout. Un rooftop avec une vue superbe sur la mer, la cathédrale... L'appartement familial était très bien Nikolaï parle plusieurs langues dont le français et a été réactif
• Nikola (8/5): -
• Monika (8/5): -
• Nadja (10/5): - Sehr schöne und saubere Wohnung im Zentrum von Cefalù.
• Moyra (6/5): Enjoyed the location but could have been quieter. - The location- close to shopping and food. Unreliable elevator, very noisy at night - live music, basic amenities.
• Hélène (8/5): -
• Giovanni (9/5): -
• Margit (10/5): Perfekt - Centralt historisk och livfullt
• Vitor Dambiski (10/5): Amazing location and view! - Amazing location! Located in the city center, easy to get around, and a wonderful view from the church and the sea. We had breakfast on their terrace just to make the most of the moment Parking lot 10minutes walking from hotel and there’s reduction if you go in the one they recommend.
• Anna (9/5): - Terrasse ist wunderschön Fön war kaputt
• Anna (10/5): -
• Marie (10/5): -
• Rebecca (6/5): Oke für eine Nacht aber kein Komfort - Die Terrasse und die Lage Das der Wasserkocher und das Licht nicht funktioniert hat und das es sehr altmodisch eingerichtet war.
• Karsten Brandt (9/5): -
• Sylvie (7/5): Agréable mais pas très reposant. - L’emplacement est parfait pour tout faire à pied. La place est magnifique. Le lit est confortable. Le logement est un peu spartiate et désuet. C’est un peu bruyant, mais difficile d’avoir l’emplacement et le calme.
• Pavel Bartoš (6/5): - Location is great We stayed for 2 nights in a central location that truly is charming — Piazza Duomo in Cefalù is hard to beat. However, we experienced two significant problems that we feel future guests should know about. **Shower problems throughout the stay:** For the entire duration of our stay, we were unable to shower properly. First, there was no hot water. After the owner came to fix it, the cold water stopped working instead. This is a basic amenity, and having it unavailable for the whole stay is simply not acceptable. **Misleading photos:** The listing photos show rooms with a view of the beautiful Piazza Duomo. We were assigned a room facing the inner courtyard, with a direct view of hanging laundry. While the property does mention that room allocation depends on availability, this feels unfair. Guests paying the same price deserve transparency — ideally, there should be separate listings or pricing for courtyard-facing vs. square-facing rooms, as is standard practice elsewhere.
• Simone (7/5): Zur Stadterkundung top gelegen. Für eine Nacht würden wir es wieder buchen. - Geräumiges Apartment. Dachterrasse mit Super Blick. Lage mitten am Domplatz Parken nicht möglich. Nur außerhalb. Längerer Fußmarsch mit dem Gepäck durch die Stadt.
• Florence (10/5): - Nous avons eu un appartement avec une vue exceptionnelle sur la cathédrale. Appartement magnifique, spacieux, dans un palais en plein cœur historique. Gestion et intendance parfaite.
• Anne-Laure (10/5): - Tout, vue magnifique! Rien
• Frida (10/5): -
• Eleonora (9/5): - Appartamento in palazzo storico nella piazza del Duomo, ottima accoglienza, spazioso e fresco. Mancavano alcune stoviglie nella cucina (posate e tazzine da caffè).
• Thomas (8/5): -
• Sonia (8/5): -
• Avery (10/5): -
• Herman (6/5): Veel te hoge prijs voor wat je krijgt - Prachtige locatie midden op piazza Duome Bedden waren hard en de douche werkte nauwelijks
• chris (9/5): Make sure you specify a cathedral view. It is absolutely stunning and well worth it. - Initially we were in a small apartment at the back of the building with no view. We asked to be moved and were for the second half of the week. Moved to top floor room Federico which was amazing! The hosts were very helpful with this. The very noisy rubbish collection trucks in the square early in the morning but that wasn't the apartment's fault!
• Tautvydas (9/5): -
• Jourdain (9/5): - Bel appartement très bien situé Accueil agréable Belle terrasse avec vue sur la place de la cathédrale
• JULIA (9/5): -
• Marianne (9/5): -
• René (7/5): Terrasse am Dach war super, aber Unterkunft an sich war den Preis nicht wert. - Die gemeinsam benutzte Terrasse am Dach war ein Highlight. Die Unterkunft war sehr spartanisch. Ich hätte mir mehr erwartet. Vor allem das Badezimmer entsprach nicht meinen Vorstellungen nach einem guten Standard. Tageslicht hat es praktisch nicht gegeben.
• GAIA (10/5): Magico - Spazi, posizione, terrazza Assenza di parcheggio ma capisco che è praticamente impossibile parcheggiare in piazza a Cefalù
• Blagovest (8/5): -
• Klaus (9/5): Ferienwohnung in Toplage. - Wunderbare Lage, schöner Balkon, großes Appartement (für 4). Gepäcksaufbewahrung möglich - freundliches, unkompliziertes Service. Frühe Abreise schon um 10.00. Zimmer etwas spartanisch eingerichtet (Kleiderhaken usw.). Lage in ZTL- daher Anreise wegen der doch ca. 15 Minuten entfernten Parkmöglichkeit ziemlich beschwerlich.
• christophe (8/5): Super - L emplacement Rien
• Mengli (10/5): Great place to enjoy in Cefalu - First of all, location and location and location! It’s THE center in Cefalu within short distance to everywhere. And of course the very beautiful and historic building inside and out, with breath-taking view from the terrace on the top. Last but not least the staff Emanuella and Nikolai were both friendly and ready to help.
• Vigdis (10/5): -
• Ziqi (10/5): -
• Lauren (9/5): -
• Peggy (8/5): - Die Lage ist traumhaft. Besonders die Dachterrasse ist am Morgen und am Abend spektakulär. Der check in ist sehr unkompliziert und es wird netterweise die Aufbewahrung der Koffer angeboten. Leider bestimmt der Gastgeber selbst, ob man ein Zimmer mit Blick auf den Domplatz oder auf der Rückseite des Hauses bekommt. Die Küche könnte eine Grundausstattung (Salz, Zucker...) vertragen.
• Ralf (8/5): Eine Übernachtung reicht - Die Lage. Die Beschreibung ist irreführend. Die Terrasse gehört nicht zur Wohnung. Sie steht allen zur Verfügung und befindet sich schwerzugänglich auf dem Dach. Der Wasserdruck in der Dusche ist sehr schwach.
• Karen (8/5): -
• Marius Christopher (6/5): -
• Katarzyna (9/5): Na pewno przy kolejnej wizycie w cefalu zatrzymamy się w tym samym miejscu. - Wspaniały taras z widokiem na plac do dyspozycji gości
• Laura (8/5): -
• Piotr Jan (10/5): -
• Chloe (10/5): Great location, spacious property with great views - The location was lovely. The pictures don’t do justice of how pretty the view is. The size of the property is big, high ceilings and large rooms.
• Kate (10/5): Loved our stay in Cefalu! Great apartment! - Loved the space and the location! Highly recommend this property!
• alexandra (10/5): Great views - Perfect location! Spacious apartment with fantastic duomo views. It was everything we imagined. Shower with insufficient water pressure.
• Bianca (10/5): It was a beautiful stay and beautiful location, very well suited to a small family - Incredible location in the heart of the Duomo, with gorgeous church bells. The room was exceptional, large and beautifully accommodating for a family. The air conditions were not sufficient enough in the heat and didn’t cool the rooms down effective enough. The beds were also very hard to sleep on.
• Euijin (5/5): Not recommendable - The location was perfect! We could see small concerts that helds from a cafe before the accomodation until the night. Terrace was huge but not really beautiful. We were not assigned the room that we saw in the photos. I mean.. parts of the photos are from our room but the nice photos are taken in other rooms. That was the most disappointing thing. There are many ants everywhere especially in the kitchen. There is no hair dryer. But strangely there is a "hand" dryer..... I used it as a hair dryer but the hand dryer is in the corner of the toilet so it was hard to use it. The toilet is smelly like urine... We expected quite much for the room, however it was really disappointing. Not valuable for the money.
• Stefan (10/5): -
• Miiica (10/5): -
• Cassandra (9/5): Très bon séjour - - l’emplacement - l’espace de l’appartement - la déco typique - la communication + de pression d’eau dans la douche serait nécessaire mais c’est un détails, à part ça tout était parfait
• Lara (10/5): Loved it, would definitely return - Incredible location and rooms were very clean
• Mario (9/5): - Clean, had a lift. Lovely piazza. Very central All good
• Maria (8/5): Very nice - Locality Perhaps better pillows
• Silvana (9/5): -
• ZEYNEL (8/5): İtalya ve tesis harikaydı, tuvalet dışında. - Konum muhteşemdi. Meydanda bir kafede oturur gibi balkonda oturuyorduk. Çok keyifliydi. Tuvalet havalandırması yoktu. Sidik kokusu oluşuyordu tuvalette. Hava temizleyici gibi birşey takmışlar. Gürültü yapıp gece rahatsız etmek dışında bir fonksiyonu yoktu.
• Racheli (10/5): - מיקום הכי קרוב לכל מקום בצ׳פאלו: לסמטאות הצרות, לאתרי התיירות, מרחק הליכה קצר ונעים לחוף הים. המעלית היתה יעילה מאד בכל הנוגע להעלאת והורדת המזוודות וגולת הכותרת היא העלייה לגג עם נוף עוצר נשימה!!! מעלית טובה כמעלית משא אבל פחות נעימה ( תחושה כמו באקווריום), יחד עם זאת היא שווה זהב בהתייחס לעבודה
• Donatella (9/5): -
• imene (8/5): -
• Emma (7/5): Great location and clean but needs a little TLC. - Balcony over looking the piazza. Large rooms. In old town. Clean. Needs a little TLC. Bathroom drain had a slight smell. Lift was broken. Miles from a car park.
• Nathan (6/5): Emplacement exceptionnel mais confort limité. - Emplacement absolument exceptionnel au cœur de Cefalù. La terrasse (partagée) offre une vue incroyable sur la cathédrale et la place. Le logement est pratique. Très bien pour deux personnes mais pas du tout pour une famille de 5 comme la nôtre. L'établissement mise tout sur son emplacement et cela se ressent partout ailleurs malgré un prix très élevé. La terrasse partagée est équipée avec le strict minimum (2 tables, 8 chaises et un salon de jardin pour 4 personnes). Les logements eux-mêmes sont très peu équipés (notamment en cuisine). La literie est mauvaise ; en particulier le canapé lit dans lequel nous avons très mal dormi (et pourtant nous ne sommes pas difficile en la matière). Bref, un lieu avec un énorme potentiel mais partiellement gâché par une gestion pécuniaire du lieu. Dommage.
• Noemi (10/5): - Palazzo e terrazza strepitosa vista duomo. Le stanze pulite e posizione eccezionale per spostarsi comodamente ! Grazie . Il giorno del check out ci hanno detto che potevamo lasciare le valigie ,invece non abbiamo trovato nessuno e siamo stati costretti a portarci tutto dietro !
• frederick (5/5): High price with no service, noisy at night and not very clean. Unfriendly welcome, no recommendations provided - Location, location, location Unfriendly staff, broken toilet seat, bad lighting, bad shower head, uncomfortable bed, slow elevator, lack of drinking water, broken coffee machine, etc.
• Dunja (7/5): - Posizione fantastica, non potrebbe essere migliore. Vista incantevole, da togliere il fiato. L'appartamento spazioso. Un uomo molto gentile che accoglie gli ospiti. I letti non sono molto comodi e la doccia ha poca pressione. Ha un enorme potenziale e con qualche miglioria potrebbe diventare davvero perfetto.
• Valeria (10/5): -
• Russo (8/5): piacevole, staff eccezionale e disponibili - la posizione, vicina a tutto e vicina al mare, ristoranti vicini validissimi io condizionatore non raffreddava, mancavano olio sale e cose di prima necessità
• Federica (8/5): -
• Tommy (9/5): Väldigt nöjda som helhet. - Läget och storleken på boendet. Fin balkong ut mot torget. Bäddsoffan var trasig så väldigt obekväm att sova i.Kunde varit bättre städat vid ankomst. Det var sandigt på golvet.
• Aurora (10/5): -
• Rossana (10/5): Exceeded expectations! - Loved this charming property so much. The building is impressive and the apartments are large and beautifully decorated. The view from the balconies and the rooftop were such a treat. It’s in the best location right at the center square and close to everything. Nikolai was very kind and helpful before and during our stay. Got a discount code for the nearby parking. Could not have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend! No issues. Everything was great.
• Magali (10/5): -
• MAAM3006 (10/5): - Localização, comodidades, simpatia do staff, limpeza -
• Nick (9/5): - Helpful and friendly staff. The location is perfect and that rooftop is insane! -
• Jacek (9/5): Bardzo udany pobyt - Super lokalizacja i niesamowity widok na Katedrę i Plac jeśli masz apartament od strony Katedry Taras na dachu mógłby być najpiękniejszy w mieście gdyby go zagospodarować .
• Steven (10/5): Great apartment with fantastic view - Right in the centre. Loved sitting out on the balcony watching the busy square with a glass of wine. Less than 5 minute walk to the beach was great
• Hansen (9/5): Flott utsikt fra balkong, og føler nesten at du sitter på torget. - Veldig fin beliggenhet, og veldig sjarmerende bygg. Dårlig vanntrykk i dusjen
• Debanik (9/5): - Great location!!!
• Lilia (9/5): -
• Pamela (9/5): Wunderschön - Grosse Räume, Zentrale Lage Kein Fenster im Schlafzimmer
• Llibert (10/5): Perfect stay - Palazzo Maria has been perfect. The Federico apartment it's big and well maintained, very clean and confortable bed. We loved the views from the room right next to the Duomo. If views from the room are great, the views from the top roof terrace are amazing, probably the best ones in Cefalú. There are nice cafes snd restairants in the square. Check in and check out were very easy. You feel welcome and comfortable. The perfect stay in Cefalú
• Mantas (8/5): - Location is perfect! Beach is close, middle of old city, restaurants around the apartment. Shower didn’t work properly, sometimes only cold water. Bathroom overall had not nice smell.
• Ottmar (7/5): -
• Malgorzata (9/5): -
• Dave (8/5): Excellent stay - The location
