We recommend staying in the Casamassimo flat at the heart of fashionable Palermo, just a stone's throw from the beautiful Teatro Massimo. Claudia and Joachim are perfect hosts. They did so much to make our our arrival late on a Saturday evening stress free and we had a very warm welcome.

The flat is exactly as their description - very comfortable and clean, and will exceed your expectations. The small terrace at the back of the flat is a great space to relax before going out in the evening. The street at the front of the flat, where the main bedroom is, can be very lively until late, and that's a bonus as the whole area around Teatro Massimo is full of life. Step out of the flat and there you are in the middle of right in the centre of daily life in Palermo.

A perfect location, which is about 8 min walk for catching the airport bus and the bus to nearby Modello beach. It is also about 15 min walk to the central rail station or just catch a bus nearby.

When we said goodbye to Claudia and Joachim, we didn't want to leave Palermo.
