"The view of Cefalu was spectacular especially at night. Our room was very comfortable and the pool and poolside area beautifully set out with sun beds amongst the orange trees. A lovely and much appreciated hotel."

The couple that runs this hotel have been doing so for almost 40 years! They were delightful and helpful! The food was delicious. The room was clean. The beds could use some updating. But the facility had other modern touches. We truly enjoyed our stay!

This property is an oasis of quiet in a noisy city. The private garden is beautifully landscaped with a small swimming pool. Our room and bathroom were surprisingly large, with high ceilings. The air conditioning worked perfectly. Staff is helpful and friendly. We will definitely come back to this hotel!

We enjoyed our stay at this very clean, beautiful, well maintained wellness spa hotel. The staff were incredibly helpful, especially the front desk staff, the spa staff (Carol), and the restaurant staff (Francesco, Marzia, and Francesca). The room was updated and clean thanks to Daniela and the other lady who was making sure our room was tidied everyday. The food at the restaurant was amazing, we ate one meal there besides breakfast everyday of our stay and did not regret anything we ordered...

Palazzo Achates was perfect for us! It is in the center of old town on a quiet street and has been fully renovated with a beautiful modern minimalist design. I booked the last room available which, was described as small, but it was actually quite roomy and lovely. The owner answered all requests promptly and was wonderfully welcoming! He made us feel assured that the keycard entry to the hotel itself would work smoothly at any hour of the night, and it did. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Fantastic location for restaurants and tourism! This place has a lot of space and was very clean. If we travel to Palermo this is where we want to stay.

The property was quirky and obviously under development. The quirkiness was quite nice, and the owner provided breakfast to order himself. We needed a transfer to the airport on the last day, this was facilitated for us, and the owner offered to prepare breakfast especially early in the circumstances. The one problem was the shower door was missing (due to an accident with a previous client), and this was directly open to the room. In the circumstances and due to my size, this was quite awkward...

Great location, clean and good size rooms. . Walkable to dining, shopping. There is not 24 staff so be aware of that. Lots of stairs but there is a small elevator to take up luggage.

Had a wonderful stay in Palermo! The room was beautiful, clean, cozy, and the location was steps away from everything I wanted to be close to in the city. Will absolutely rebook this place the next time I’m in Palermo!
