Guest Reviews
- Sarah (10/5): Comfortable stay in someone’s home right in the centre of town. - Fantastic location with easy walkable access to all the major sites. Paolo is the perfect host, along with his mother, doing everything to please their guests and so helpful with recommendations. You definitely feel as though you are staying in their own home and they go out of their way to make you feel at home. An excellent stay. Nothing
- Carla (10/5): - Paolo e la sua famiglia hanno reso il nostro viaggio a Palermo indimenticabile, struttura affascinante che ti avvolge nel contesto palermitano. La loro completa disponibilità nel fornirci le indicazioni migliori per i siti da visitare e i posti migliori dove gustare le vere specialità siciliane, la consigliamo vivamente a tutti e non vediamo l'ora di ripetere noi stesse l'esperienza,.grazie mille
- Sarah (9/5): -
- Dejan (10/5): - Everything,position,Paolo is a king🙂 Nothing
- Monica (10/5): - Ho prenotato per i miei genitori, che sono rimasti entusiasti per il trattamento riservato.
Mamma è intollerante al lattosio e si sono adoperati per farle avere una colazione completa. Preziosi i suggerimenti su locali della città. Grazie di tutto da parte loro!
- karl (7/5): - Sehr persönlich und freundlich, sehr gute Lage
- Christian (8/5): -
- Christian (8/5): Lovely Bed & Breakfast in the middle of city center - The room was very beautiful and the hosts were perfect in their friendliness and their tips to places to visit.
We had a very nice breakfast everyday in which the hosts always asked us our preferred foods and pastries. During the weekend it can be noisy with sounds from the street / speakers / music as you are in the middle of a city center and party district.
- krzysztofto (10/5): - Podczas kontaktu z przemiłymi właścicielami czuliśmy się jak rodzina, która zabiega o to żeby ci nic nie zabrakło. Bardzo dziękujemy za rodzinną atmosferę, za to że czuliśmy się ważni, że służono nam pomocą informacyjną dotyczącą naszego pobytu w Palermo u Wittorio Emanuele.
- Marin (9/5): - breakfest was great, location perfect, staff was very friendly not enough towels
- Kari (9/5): Onnistunut vierailu hyvällä sijainnilla - Sijainti on loistava. Franceska ja Paolo olivat erittäin ystävällisiä ja mukavia - kuin kotona olisi ollut.
Hauska aamupala ja vaikka kovin makea pohjoismaalaiselle, niin kyllä maistui!
Kaiken kaikkiaan erinomainen paikka - hyvin voin suositella!
The location is excellent. Franceska and Paolo were extremely friendly and welcoming — thank you for making us feel so at home.
The breakfast was fun and, although very sweet for a Nordic taste, it was still delicious!
Overall, an excellent place, and we would happily recommend it to others. No - pitää ymmärtää, kun asuu huippusijainnilla niin kaupungin äänet kuuluu. Vähän turhan äänekäs baari melko vieressä.
Näkymät huoneesta eivät kummoiset olleet, mutta ei se sinällään haitannut.
As a central location, some city noise is to be expected - and it's fine. There is a lively bar nearby.
The room view was not much, but it didn’t really matter for us.
- Albin László (10/5): -
- Florence (10/5): - Un grand merci pour l accueil extraordinairement chaleureux de Paolo et de sa famille. Le logement est idéalement situé dans le centre historique à quelques minutes à pied des principaux sites. Paolo nous a donné d excellentes idées de visites. Le petit déjeuner typique est très copieux et de qualité. Un grand merci pour ce super séjour dans cette maison familiale si orginale dans laquelle on se sent si bien. L emplacement

- Peter (9/5): -
- Elias (10/5): - Sehr netter und bemühter Gatgeber. Einfach top. Danke Paolo!
- Emilio Sammartino (10/5): Se Palermo vuoi visitare, questa struttura devi prenotare!!! - Struttura in pieno centro a Palermo, ideale per scoprire tutta la città a piedi. Staff gentilissimo, ci ha fatto sentire in famiglia! Presente ed attento ad ogni necessità!!
Che dire di più? Consigliatissimo per chi vuole girare a Palermo senza usare i mezzi.
Ps: Colazione TOP. Nulla, tutto perfetto!
- Anna (10/5): Rewelacyjnie - Klimat klimat jeszcze raz klimat ... czuliśmy się tak trochę jak na dworze królewskim Śniadania ...Nie, że były nie dobre i nie smaczne ... po prostu włoskie śniadania to sama słodycz plus kawka ... na dłuższą metę nie da się tak funkcjonować 😁
- Davide (10/5): - Posizione meravigliosa, host cordialissimo
- Michal (10/5): Pobyt krótki, ale intensywny - dużo zwiedzania, a jest co oglądać. - Pensjonat Vittorio Emanuele rooms di Prinzi, to wielopoziomowe mieszkanie w zabytkowej kamienicy. Zachowane w nim zostały oryginalne elementy, tworzące niepowtarzalny klimat. Lokalizacja pensjonatu najlepsza z możliwych. Samo centrum najpiękniejszej części miasta. Wystarczy wyjść na ulicę żeby znaleźć się w sercu Palermo. Śniadania przepyszne. Dla mnie świeżutkie croissanty i cappuccino robione przez Paolo, to wszystko czego mi rano potrzeba do szczęścia 😄 ale wybór znacznie szerszy: pizzerinki, pyszne bułeczki, jogurty, owoce, płatki śniadaniowe, energia na zwiedzanie zapewniona.
- Armin (9/5): - So nett, schön und zentral, so nette Vermieter!
- Stefano (8/5): -
- wanda (10/5): Comme au temps du "Guépard" - Ce logis très pittoresque, proche de la " fontana Pretoria" permet de rejoindre rapidement à pied tous les lieux principaux chargés d'histoire de Palerme et qui nous plongent dans les ambiances d'avant l'unité italienne.
Nous avons été accueillies très cordialement par un hôte amoureux de sa ville et qui en parle avec bonheur. Très attentionné, il nous a proposé des petits déjeuners somptueux avec les pâtisseries locales.
- Sarah (10/5): - La struttura è in pieno centro, vicinissima a tutte le principali attrazioni turistiche e facile da raggiungere dall’aeroporto.
La stanza dove abbiamo soggiornato era pulitissima e comodissima.
Lo staff molto socievole e disponibile per ogni necessità.
La colazione era veramente stratosferica, con prodotti tipici e freschi.
Self check in veloce.
Possibilità di utilizzare il servizio deposito bagagli. Assolutamente nulla
- Ina (10/5): -
- Marta (10/5): -
- Romina (8/5): Toccata e fuga a Palermo - In pieno centro. Posto caratteristico. Colazione super e staff molto socievole e disponibile. Self check in veloce. La vasca nella stanza Marta non è proprio comodissima ma bisogna aggiungere che è una chicca in un contesto molto familiare.
Un pò di rumore c'è in quanto ci si affaccia su Corso Vittorio Emanuele ma sono bravissimi e danno in dotazione anche i tappi!
- Francesca (10/5): Un punto fermo per apprezzare Palermo - La gentilezza e disponibilità, camera ampia, ben attrezzata
- Olivier (9/5): Super accueil - Super accueil, discussions et conseils avec notre hôte Paolo. Très bon petit déj avec plein de bonness choses.
Chambre confortable.
Très bien situé au centre de la ville historique. Un peu de bruit extérieur dans la rue.
- mani (8/5): - Die Ausstattung sehr außergewöhnliche, die Lage ist perfekt,
- Fernanda (10/5): Minha estadia foi ótima. O Paolo foi super flexível permitindo que eu deixasse minha bagagem na propriedade antes do che - O lugar é lindo, parecia que estava num quarto de princesa. Além disso o quarto e banheiro eram super espaçosos.
- Tomasz (10/5): - Cudowni gospodarze
- Magalie (6/5): - Hôtes agréables, petit déjeuner copieux Pas d’isolation phonique (rue très bruyante) décoration très kitch, literie très très souple
- Katrin (10/5): So geht Gastfreundschaft auf Sizilianisch. - Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit in der Unterkunft. Wir hatten sie anhand der Fotos ganz bewusst einem Hotel vorgezogen und wir wurden nicht enttäuscht. Sie ist wirklich gemütlich eingerichtet und die Gastgeber haben uns mit sehr guten Tipps versorgt. Die Lage ist absolut top. Im Herzen der Altstadt gelegen, ist man schnell am Bahnhof, am Hafen, an der Kathedrale, dem Ballaro-Markt und findet zudem Supermärkte in der Nähe und Restaurants und Souvenirshops direkt vor der Tür. Nachts ist natürlich Leben auf der Straße und das hört man im Zimmer. Da wir aus der Großstadt kommen, hat es uns nicht gestört. -
- Diego (9/5): - Ubicación inmejorable, aunque ruidosa. El alojamiento es espectacular por su decoración y encanto. El trato es buenísimo y el desayuno completo y acogedor.
- Mónika (10/5): -
- maria jesus (8/5): Un buen lugar - Personal, ubicación y ambiente Habitación algo ruidosa, comprensible en el centro de Palermo
- Alessia (9/5): - Camera e bagno grandi e molto puliti. Staff davvero molto gentile e disponibile.
Colazione ottima.
Posizione della struttura perfetta per visitare tutto a piedi. La posizione in centro non assicura il silenzio la mattina. Ma in ogni grande città è così.
- Angela (8/5): -
- MARIA GIUSEPPINA (9/5): Una chicca al centro di Palermo centro - Bellissima e accogliente la camera, una bomboniera.
Eccezionale la colazione, con cannoli stratosferici, corretti freschi alla crema e pistacchio e iris alla ricotta. Buonissime anche le pizzette appena sfornate
Straordinari i proprietari Nulla in particolare.
Suggerisco solamente una TV un po' più grande in camera
- Thiele (10/5): - A charming small place. The hotel is an old building with an uncommon, nice style. Everything you need is there. Located in the city centre you can walk easily to points of interest. -
- Nieske (8/5): Heel goed! - Alles Niets
- Ania (10/5): - Wyjątkowy wystrój wnętrz, pyszne śniadania, doskonała lokalizacja. Pomocny właściciel.
- Miriam (9/5): Authentisch, privat geführte Unterkunft im Zentrum Palermos - Eine sehr außergewöhnliche Unterkunft die sehr individuell und liebevoll eingerichtet wurde. Die Lage war sehr zentral Durch die zentrale Lage war der Geräuschpegel etwas störend. Der Hotelbesitzer hat deswegen Oropax auf den Nachtschrank gelegt.
- Marcello (8/5): -
- Barbara (10/5): - Bellissimo. La gentilezza e la disponibilità al 🔝🔝🔝 Camera grande e pulita. Centralissima vicino trovi di tutto negozi locali notturni e bar,. monumenti chiese piazze.la colazione super abbondante. Torneremo sicuramente.
- Hans-Joachim (7/5): Super Zentral mit viel Trubel - Sehr schön dekorierte Zimmer (Puppenstube😉).
Sehr gute Lage im Zentrum.
Gutes Frühstück Leider ist es sehr laut vor allem Nachts in der Straße.
Nur mit Ohrstöpsel auszuhalten.
Die lagen beim Einchecken zum Glück schon im Zimmer auf dem Bett.
- Verane (10/5): Une parenthèse enchantée 🤩 - Ce lieu est un véritable musée 😍
C’est le côté atypique de ses chambres , de ce lieu qui m’ont fait tomber sous le charme de cet établissement. L’accueil de Paolo est vraiment très agréable. Un vrai bonheur ! Le petit dej’ est fabuleux et tout est fait pour que nous ne manquions de rien . L’emplacement est parfait 👌 Rien.
En revanche pour certaines personnes il est important de savoir que c’est un charmant hôtel en plein centre-ville donc un peu bruyant mais ils fournissent les boules quies si besoin 😉. Encore une fois une petite attention 🤗
- Denis (9/5): Trop court - Propriétaires sympas Hôtel très bien situé près des sites touristiques et des quartiers animés. Parking à proximité (accès avec petite voiture) .
- Michael (10/5): Beautifully converted family home in great location - Well located. Beautifully converted family home. Paolo and his family were so kind, especially with our 14 month old son and ensuring there was gluten-free available food at breakfast. Would definitely recommend. Nothing - it was great. Though it is worth knowing that there are stairs up to the rooms
- Philipp (10/5): - Zentrale Lage
Sehr netter Gastgeber
Rustikales Ambiente
- Judith (9/5): - Die Lage war sehr gut. Man konnte von dort aus alles gut erreichen. Die Inhaber waren sehr nett und haben uns den Aufenthalt sehr angenehm gemacht. Man konnte sich mit jeder Frage an sie wenden. Wir würden jederzeit wieder dorthin fahren.
- Erwin (7/5): - Locatie.
Heel vriendelijke host. Bed is echt niet goed.
Heel veel lawaai. Ik vond slechts 1 paar oordopjes voor 4 nachten.
- Anna (10/5): Paollo and his family made feel very welcome - We are in love with Palermo !
Vittorio Emanuele Rooms di Prinzi hotel is in the heart of the city and this amazing 300 years old palazzo is a part of Palermo history !
- Angelika (9/5): -
- Rossella (9/5): - Posizione centrale e host gentilissimi Posizione un po’ rumorosa, anche la notte, ma forse il prezzo da pagare per essere così al centro
- Jean-Michel (8/5): Une très bonne adresse pour visiter Palerme. - L’emplacement, le petit déjeuner, l’amabilité et la disponibilité de Paolo. Dommage qu’il faille payer un supplément pour laisser les bagages après 9h30 le dernier jour.
- Simona (8/5): -
- lynne (10/5): -
- Sebastiano (6/5): -
- Doriana (9/5): - la posizione, la cortesia, la pulizia, la disponibilità.
materassi comodi
aria condizionata un po' piccolina la stanza la libererai da ciò ché è si bello, ma pesante, tende, cuscini, divano... ma per 2 notti va benissimo così è in pieno centro comoda a tutto.
- Gianna (10/5): We will stay again! Very thoughtful b&b - Lovely b&b. Very thoughtful hosts who prepared a wonderful breakfast each day. Paolo and his mother are so lovely! Air conditioning was a relief to come home to in the summer heat! Nothing

Petit déjeuner comme chez mamie Bruit de la rue, des double-vitrages seraient appréciables
- Steven (10/5): Paulo and his family were the perfect hosts.....friendly, engaging and helpful. - Very central location, walking distance to everything of interest. Rooms great, traditional Sicilian decor and furnishing with a modern touch. A very good breakfast. everything good
- Julia (9/5): - Sehr familiär, freundliches Personal, coole Ausstattung
- Peter (10/5): -
- Martina (8/5): -
- Anita (9/5): - La struttura è in pieno centro di Palermo, in zona pedonale vicinissima a tutte le principali attrazioni turistiche. Facile da raggiungere dall’aeroporto così come dalla stazione centrale ferroviaria/terminal bus. La stanza dove abbiamo soggiornato era pulitissima con un grazioso balcone affacciato sulla via pedonale che porta alla Cattedrale e Palazzo Reale. Il personale gentilissimo e disponibile per ogni necessità. Buona e abbondante la colazione con prodotti tipici e freschi soprattutto i dolci. Possibilità di utilizzare il servizio deposito bagagli.
- Kamila (10/5): We are happy to be here - Apartment is in center of the city, so it’s really good. Owners are hospitable Design is so cool!
- Andrea (9/5): Friendly and character place in the middle of the old town - The location in the old town. The friendly owners. The breakfast. The noise from the (people in the) street…. But one cannot have it all: the butter and eat it…
- Matt (10/5): The pinnacle of our 12 day Sicilian family vacation. - Everything! The location was perfect-centrally located to everything we wanted. The property was exceptionally renovated with care, even exposing a fresco in our room. The family who owned the B&B took exceptional care of us and provided ample food for traditional Sicilian breakfast. We just loved our stay, and you will as well. Boom now and enjoy! Nothing.
- Diane (6/5): Pleasant -
- Mariusz (9/5): Superb - Great owners, great vintage climate, great location just in the heart of everything
- Philip (7/5): Good - Good location in the heart of the old city, very agreeable place to stay with nice common areas. I would stay there again. Rather noisy at night, especially at weekends. Breakfast starts quite late - at 8.45 am - but that seems general practice in Sicily and when we asked if we could have it earlier, they kindly agreed to serve us at 8.15am.
- John (7/5): Good - It was a good size room and bathroom and very central. The shower/bath was a challenge to say the least. It is a very big old bath and looks lovely but gettin in and out is not eassy. It has no overhead shower, just a hand-held spray. Noise from the street didn't die down until after 2am. The doors have shutters, which kept out the street lights, but it needs double glazing for some peace and quiet. We wouldn't stay there again.
- Feng-tze (8/5): Very good - Good location in shopping areas of Palermo. Difficult to access by car.
Breakfast is simple, offered by the owner and arranged at common area.
Quiet old facility in the room and poor shower.
- Sven (8/5): perfect place in a beautiful and very lively city - The breakfast offers fruit, some pastries and more, all served by very friendly people. Unfortunately coffee is not up to Italian standards.
The communication with the host went very well. The apartment is in a great location right at the edge of the pedestrian area of Palermo.
The place is very large and super well maintained. We were woken up more than once by some yelling people. A bit scary but it didn't last long and it may have been from unusual events around. This didn't spoil my sleep or the rest of the experience.
- Fabian (7/5): Good - The people in the accommodation were nice and prepared a good (not only croissant and coffee) breakfast. The accommodation is close to the city center and the room was facing a street with restaurants and bars. Therefore, it was noisy from the street until late in the night.
- Amelia (7/5): Good -
- Elisabeth (8/5): Lively long week end! - Location, room and d bathroom very big and spacious, it had lots of character Oh felt a bit too crept in on a private family.
- Ronan (9/5): Superb - Very lovely decorated place
Staff very welcoming and pleasant Can be a bit noisy later in evening
- Ruslan (7/5): Good -
- Shaun (8/5): great location - Location Quite a lot of street noise until very late but given the location this is to be expected.
- Sarah (8/5): In the heart of Palermo - a good pace to stay to explore the city. Lively area, near the Four Canti. - Location very central, so easy to explore the city. Very friendly owners. Good communication.
- Piergiorgio (8/5): Local flair, nice people - Location, modern and clean Maybe certain rooms are on the main party street nearby, but a couple of earplugs come in handy for a good nights sleep
- Arzu (9/5): Superb - Francesca was a top hostess! The flat is a family business and lovingly furnished and totally suitable for guests! We had the largest room with the en-suite bathroom. The room is very large, with a spacious balcony overlooking the main shopping street. You have to take into account that the noise level is accordingly high as restaurants and bars are open until midnight in the evening. The room is very nicely furnished with the only drawback being the mattress.
The breakfast is typical Italian, as such sweet :-)
A savoury breakfast is also available.
All in all, clean, centrally located and close to all the sights!
- Roger (10/5): Exceptional - A very (very) clean and neatly furnished/decorated room in the best possible location.
Just a couple of rooms in the B&B, so you really feel being taken care of, especially during breakfast.
- Stephanie (7/5): Good - Excellent location
Spacious room with everything we could need
Fabulous staff
- Julie (10/5): Lovely, family run property in the heart of Palermo. - Great location near to everything you want to see and do in Palermo. Close enough to walk from the train station. Our room was huge and the decoration is very distinctive. Paolo was very responsive and helpful with pre-arrival info. We really appreciated being able to check in early as we’d come off a 18 hour flight. Paola’s mum and the other ladies who do the breakfast are adorable and friendly, very forgiving of our inability to speak Italian. The wifi in our room was up and down. Sometimes excellent but then would go too slow to use for a while. We were there Friday, Saturday, Sunday night. Friday there was some street noise on and off until late but ok to sleep through. Saturday there was really loud music until 5am from a venue up the road, loud enough to ruin my sleep. Sunday night was quiet. So maybe it was one bad night, or maybe avoid weekends if you are a light sleeper. Also, not a problem for us but be aware it’s up a few flights of stairs so not suitable if you have significant mobility issues.
- Bryan (6/5): Overal decent stay. Centrally located but missing some of the amenities I look for at the price - The location of the property to the Main Street of restaurants was perfect and the breakfast provided by the staff was delicious! There was no real shower just a tub with a nozzle that wasn’t placed overhead. Showering wasn’t easy. Also the property was very loud at night and woke us up often. The decor was also extremely dated.
- Benjamin (8/5): A touch noisy but with real charm. - This place has character. The ceiling of my room had an old fresco. There's lots of touches in this place. It's not fancy and yet it's memorable and comfortable. The room cleaning is thorough and though the place is not sleek it feels clean and cared for.
The location is also great. It's on the tourist mainfare but in a good spot that puts you in position to explore the Kalsa and the Borgo Vecchio.
The women who put on breakfast and received me in the morning were friendly and really patient with me as I pieced together my rudimentary italian. I didn't like the remote check-in. It just felt a little impersonal and unwelcoming.
The hotel room definitely gets a good amount of noise though it wasn't enough to keep me from sleeping. The shutters also don't really block out light.
The breakfast was nice although a bit heavy on sweet things. Could have used some heartier bread or eggs.
- John (7/5): Great location, decent room, nice staff - Great location Breakfast was a little underwhelming
- Vincenzo (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gillian (8/5): Lovely hosts and pleasant for a very short stay. - It was an old characterful, possibly 18th C, house at the edge of the Historical centre. Very useful for restaurants and the Cathedral and other visiting places. The family run B&B provides a fine choice of breakfast every morning and the hosts are very attentive and welcoming. The outside noise was expected and that didn’t bother us . Beautiful windows leading to a narrow balcony. But pleasant to stand on to watch the world go by and sit to have some coffee. The bathroom in ‘Marta’ room. The inconvenient (very high edge) bathtub only with hand held shower. It always pooled water - and took a while to drain so unpleasant.
The bed mattress was too soft and the perfumed plug ins? Very sorry, but nauseating.
Personally, I would not want to stay here again.
- Natasha (10/5): Great value, and location, friendly staff. - Lovely property, plenty of space and an excellent location. Would definitely stay again! It can be a bit noisy outside as we had a room facing the main street and due to the central location, but we didn’t mind!
- Elery (8/5): Very good -
- Barbara (8/5): Excellent value for the price! I'd highly recommend it. - Very clean, friendly staff, very convenient to all the major attractions and train station. The bed was comfortable, too! It was very noisy because the balcony doors were made of metal and didn't really seal, but the noise did calm down by 12pm each night, so it worked out find.
- Adam (10/5): Exceptional -
