Hotels Near L’Arsenale della Real Marina in Palermo

I and two other friends stayed at Hostel Agata. We booked the hostel as it was fairly central. The train station was 10 odd minutes away which was handy for when we left Palermo and day trip to Cefalú. Hostel Agata is also close to all the touristic destinations that we wanted to visit. We were looked after very well by the hosts Francesco, Naomi and Anthony. Nothing was a bother and we always had any request fulfilled with a smile. The breakfast is served at the cafe beside the hostel, and we enjoyed the drinks, sandwiches and pizza from the cafe. The main road can be a little loud due to single glazed window, but contrary to some comments we read prior to booking, we found the hostel to be very clean. Will definitely stay here again if I return and shall recommend it to my other friends.

We have loved our stay. The room was very spacious, the location unbeatable and the service was friendly. This hotel is sophisticated, tasteful and wonderfully affordable. Some remarks: on Saturday night the music from the rooftop was loud. Our bathroom toilet was a bit smelly, but not unbearably so. We had drinks on the rooftop, where there was w nice urban vibe.Breakfast was delicious.

The Columbia hotel is classified 2 stars, but deserves 3 for its central and strategic location for visiting Palermo, excellent services and super friendly staff. The double room is large and has a private bathroom with courtesy set, with a beautiful view from the window. There is no elevator, but that wasn't a problem for us. Breakfast is complete with sweet and savory options and can be enjoyed until 10am. Around the hotel there are many places to eat at a good price. Overall, a great hotel. I would stay here again.

My rating is more 4.5. Centrally located, easy walk to restaurants and major sites. I’m not sure why there are so many negative comments about the staff; honestly, all of our interactions were fantastic. Front desk staff helpful and knew our room number. We interacted with various front desk staffs frequently. It was nice to drop off our adorable 5 lb key at the front desk! . Breakfast was generous and abundant. It is in the most gorgeous dining area I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing. I indulged in some scrambled eggs and bacon; a welcome addition after days of continental bfasts. I had been sick and took a tray to the room to eat for 3 days, not wanting to get other travelers I’ll. Every morning, lovely Inacia, one of the staff members, efficiently put a tray together for me with a smile. The staff worked hard to restock the food and cups/plates. Barbara was our floor maid and always pleasant, had a smile, and helpful. Our TV’s did not work and each maintenance person was helpful and hilarious. It turns out when you do get the tv on, there’s only bbc! But we are not there to watch tv. The hotel is a former palazzo and it is somewhat of a maze, but that’s part of the Italian adventure. It’s a gorgeous hotel and may not be the most updated, but we found it quiet, comfortable, and unobtrusive. Umbrellas available at the front desk for rainy days. We ate at primi piatti across the street but would have tried the hotel restaurant had we another day and I was not under the weather. Bravo to the Eurostar Team- you made our Palermo trip special!

Excellent stay, room with a wonderful sea view, abundant breakfast, very professional receptionist service, excellent price. At the end of my stay I paid only 4€ of taxes in total for 2 people.

Albergo ben posizionato anche grazie alla presenza della metropolitana. In ogni caso anche a piedi si arriva al politeama in massimo 20 minuti. Pulizia ottima. Unica pecca per chi lo desiderasse la mancanza di una colazione salata.
