Such a great place to stay in Palermo! The flat is a very gentle 10 minute stroll to the historic sites in the centre, but in a lovely lively area with lots of great places to eat (we loved 'all'Olivella' opposite the archaeological museum; try the paccheri con gamberoni). The flat itself is amazing: the restoration is superb, and the amenities are really great - most of all, of course, the pool, which is a real luxury to come back to after a hot day's sightseeing. And best of all, as always, are the hosts - Angelo, who was very helpful and flexible, and his wife Margherita, who was equally lovely but also - to crown it all - one of the architects who rebuilt Tomasi de Lampedusa's palace so beautifully. They are rightly proud of their place and their hospitality. Highly recommended.
