Ok hotel in an awful location by a motorway, maybe 30 minutes walk from the city centre. Very friendly staff. The wi-fi was very expensive, 7euro. Rooms fairly average with the standard amenities - missed a waterboiler/coffe machine.

We stayed here for a weekend back in 2005. We went to Palermo just for a weekend and got a good deal on this place. It was adequate, a little out of the main town, well actually quite a long stroll, but to be fair we were happy for the walk. Hotel was clean and fairly modern, but if a... More

Excellent hotel with very good service, friendly and helpful staff, good amenities in the rooms and very good quality of bed-sheets and towels. However, it is in an awful posiiton on a major road (nearly motorway) in the suburbs of the city. One does not go to palermo to see traffic jams. A pity because the hotel in itself is... More

We stopped at this hotel overnight because we arrived in Palermo at dusk and by the time we got our rental car it was dark. The hotel is easy to spot from the highway. It is on the right had side of the road when driving into Palermo from the airport. The staff were friendly, the free parking is very... More

Despite not liking Palermo as a city at all, our one night's stay at the Holiday Inn was pretty pleasant - the room was clean, the staff was courteous. We staid a little past the checkout time - nobody said a word. Also, the concierge suggested a nice restaurant next door, to have dinner at. I'm sure she was getting... More

We stayed at this hotel just to be close to the airport, get a feel for the streets, check maps etc before venturing out into the surrounding areas. I felt the hotel was easy to find from the airport but slightly dificult to find the actual entrance driveway. After a few trips around the block we saw that the drive... More

I've stayed in this hotel for almost a week, enough to have a clear idea of it and decide not to be back. The building is just horrible: it's an anonymous, ugly building, located just beside a very busy street, with all that such a location means: noise, pollution, chaos. Rooms' windows are not soundproof, and if you are so... More

For a Holiday Inn, this one has got to be one of the worst I have stayed in. Very very disapointed. You expect a good corporate image with standard quality world over... I think they missed this one. Rooms were an ok size, very out dated, thought we were in a time warp, cleanish, but because a lick of paint... More

My travel agent made a reservation for me at this hotel. For personal reasons I will not be able to use the booking. The hotel will not cancel my reservation even though it is for the middle on next month! When I found this hotel on the internet there was no mention of not being able to canel.

Don't stay there! This hotel is not central to anything. We had to walk 1/2 mile to get to the closet train station, to catch a train to central station in Palermo. Restaurant was overpriced. Rooms were OK, but too noisy. Our room faced the main road so it was very noisy. We had no air conditioning, since it was... More
