Irene’s place is spectacular! With possibly the biggest medieval front door ever, the place really feels like you’re properly within this ancient city.
Easy to get to and just a short walk from main streets, central town and the harbour area, the apartment makes for an ideal base to explore Palermo.
The place itself is beautifully designed with everything you could need. Just like the photos the impressive custom red metal staircase creates a main feature in the living area and provides access to the mezzanine sleeping level. Whilst the separate bedroom with 2 (very comfy) single beds - which is also beautifully designed with similar red metal work and nicely designed lighting - was ideal for our kids.
Irene had provided a cot for our 11 month old and even some of her own kids toys for our 3 year old to play with too.
Brilliant coffee machine, lovely bathroom, plenty of towels and even a welcome cannoli waiting for us in the fridge, Irene really has thought of everything. She even let us drop our luggage off early which was very helpful too.
The location is remarkable quiet for such a hectic city and there is the most amazing gelateria just around the corner. Irene has also created a very professional guide to the area and the wider city and was quick to respond to all of our questions.
A beautiful home in a fascinating city. Stay here, you won’t be disappointed!
