The hotel is old, but this is its value; you can feel the history sitting in its lounge adorned with frescos and stuccos. Ancient building, but with wireless – free- in the common areas. The rooms are tiny, but comfortable... (With TV and minibar) and you will spend the major part of the day visiting this wonderful historic town, because... More

Excellent location for Ancona, placed perfectly between the centre and the ferry port. The staff are very friendly and efficient with proud suggestions for their beloved little city... Dated and in need of a refurbishing but clean and perfectly situated to explore and have a good time at a good price. More

Great location for train and ferry passengers as well as old town centre. Hotel very old, a little worn - it has seen better days - but for just a room to sleep in and use as a base for traveling from and/or sightseeing Ancona its fine value for money. Staff super and helpful! More

We have stayed at the Grand Hotel Palace a couple of times in the last few years. It has a great location if you are catching a ferry to any number of the locations served by this port. The hotel is older, but well maintained. The bathrooms appear to have been recently renovated and are very clean. The come with... More

It has been a while since my visit but I am trying to catch up on reviews of some smaller-less reviewed properties I have stayed at. As others have said, the photos look lovely but must have been taken 30 years ago. Everything was stale - from the decor to the food. Staff was as helpful as could be but... More

We booked this through the internet and it looked lovely.. It was not. The entrance to the hotel said it all really, worn dirty carpet and smelt of hospitals. Our room was dull, the whole place smelt of hospitals and even our dog whined all the time, the first time she felt ill at ease from when we left the... More

I stayed at the Palace for business for 2 nights in February. Its one of the only hotels in the area and is very simple and clean. DO NO expect anything you are used to in the US. Even a motel is fancier then this. But if you are looking for a place to sleep on a trip thru the... More
