Miceli Exclusive Suite

I loved being able to use the rooftop hot tub every day, with the indoor option there when it rained. That, plus the delicious breakfast from a well-known Pasticceria, made it easy to balance sightseeing with time to relax. The view is the BEST in Sicily, and you can walk to the main attractions while staying a little way from all the commotion. For the price, this place is an unbelievable value. I’ve traveled a lot and haven’t found many places this nice and affordable. The room’s modern, chic style felt deeply relaxing. I slept incredibly well and had some of my best meditations here during a full week’s stay. Alessandra is the NICEST HOST. She’s like an instant best friend on what’s app, brings water each day, and takes care of anything else you need. I’m already figuring out when I can return. Thank you, Alessandra!

Alessandra made our honeymoon room feel extra special with rose petals on the bed. It had such a romantic atmosphere, and it was PERFECT. I’d highly recommend it to anyone coming to Palermo.

I only needed somewhere to rest before my flight after my other hotel couldn't take my payment, so I picked this place at random. Glad I did. The GLAMOUR room was super clean and modern, with a balcony jacuzzi I enjoyed and a bathtub right in front of the TV. I LOVED the bathroom mirrors. It was a great place to spend my last night before leaving Sicily.

The view from the 7th floor is beautiful, and the room was cleaned every day. Those are my two stars. The location is on Palermo’s outskirts, about a 30-40 minute walk to the center, and the room faced an elevator that was noisy late at night and early in the morning. A neighbor’s dog barked constantly too. This feels more like an Airbnb than a hotel: three rooms converted from an apartment in an old 1960/70’s residential building, with no kitchen area or concierge. To get inside you have to call a number. My phone didn’t work in Europe, so thankfully my partner was able to activate his SIM. Nobody had sent instructions beforehand, and I was a bit lost when I arrived. There also wasn’t an iron or ironing board. Breakfast is a daily 15 EUR token for a bar five minutes away, not food at the accommodation. It didn’t cover breakfast for two adults, only coffee and small patisseries each, with limited choices. The jacuzzi wasn’t maintained. There was a strong sewage smell, and debris came through the pipes and jets the first time it ran.
