This was the first place we stayed on a short tour of Sicily, and it was SUPERB. Though alas we only had two nights in Palermo, I wouldn't have spent them anywhere else. John wasn't about, but called on our arrival to greet us, and his team are fantastic fun. The evenings my boyfriend and I spent on the roof looking over the sparkling city will stay with me forever.

The flat is tastefully decorated and offers a real Palermo experience, you're literally ON the market when you open the door - and can gather everything you'd need for a great breakfast within 20 paces.
