Giovanni's beautiful apartment is situated in an old mansion house with a courtyard in the historic centre of Palermo - close to Vucciria market and San Domenico church. The apartment itself is stunning with spacious rooms with original tiled floors, and some with painted ceilings. Each of the three beautiful bedrooms has its own balcony looking out on the street below. There is also a huge private terrace overlooking the courtyard and giant tree! Kitchen and bathroom are modern and stylish. Giovanni has chosen beautiful 20th century pieces to furnish the rooms in minimalist style and clearly takes great pride in this gorgeous apartment. The two beds we used were large, proper doubles with comfy mattresses and good quality pillows and linen. In summary this is a stunning apartment in which to retreat and relax after sightseeing hectic Palermo. Giovanni made us very welcome and we would definitely return.
