The hotel offers a mix of wonderful views and spacious rooms, with clean accommodations and beautiful hotel grounds, though some areas are showing signs of age. The staff are competent and friendly. The location, while not ideal for its distance from Palermo city center, boasts lovely surroundings with waterfront views. The dining options are varied and reasonably priced, set in a pleasant garden, although some dishes may be disappointing. Overall, it's a charming hotel with areas that shine and some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was a delightful experience overall. The rooms were spacious and luxurious, offering a great view of the harbor, exactly what I would expect from a top-tier facility. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to cater to every need. The location, nestled at the foot of Monte Pellegrino overlooking the bay, was simply superb. The dining experience was pleasant, with ample healthy choices and a great view. However, some areas felt a bit underdeveloped, and the district lacked nearby facilities.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a lovely terrace offering a beautiful sea view, but the service was somewhat lacking due to outdated equipment. The location, although surrounded by elegant gardens, was a bit shabby with rubbish around, yet provided easy access to great local dining options. The dining experience, while delicious and varied, seemed overpriced. Overall, it was a comfortable stay despite some shortcomings.

The hotel is right by the seaside, surrounded by lush gardens and inviting fountains, offering gorgeous views and a nice pool. The rooms, though shabby and tired as expected during the closing period, were consistently clean. The service, especially from Rosanna, was prompt and attentive. The dining experience, set on a beautiful terrace with delicious meals, was excellent.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was superb, overlooking the harbor and with a relaxing garden setting, providing an oasis of calm in the middle of the city. However, the rooms were a bit of a letdown with a musty smell and in need of renovation. The service, on the other hand, was exceptional, with friendly staff like Edoardo and Vito going above and beyond to assist. The dining experience offered a lovely terrace view, though the food selection could be improved.

Staying at the hotel was an amazing experience with luxurious and spacious rooms offering stunning views, though inconveniences like no electricity for a night were a downside. The location overlooking the sea and gardens was beautiful, but its inconvenience for city trips was a drawback.

The hotel offers comfortable rooms with a huge terrace providing views of the park and harbor, although they were slightly worn due to the upcoming closure. The service was exceptional, especially Rosanna from the servicing staff, although printing out an invoice was a challenge. The location overlooking the marina and sea was stunning, despite occasional sewage odors. The dining experience was top-notch, with a great selection of international and local cuisine. Overall, a mix of great features and minor drawbacks.
