The flat and cleanliness are great. As well as helpful hosts. It is an unusual hotel with old style (vintage) design.

I didn’t like the area itself. If you are staying close to the central station, bear in mind that u may feel unsafe while walking in the street. For solo travellers the area is a bit scary, but the flat is great. And the place does not have a kitchen facilities for guests.

The Hotel is on the 5th floor in a building with other companies. Then they have 2 more floors for rooms. I had a room on 1st floor (6th when in the area) so was away from the every day noise at reception which was great. Nice views also - both pics are from room - 2x different sides

Very good location, seconds from the station. Room absolutely spotless. Tasty breakfast served in room.

It was ideal for a short stay but for a longer stay I found having the leave the key and ring the bell to reenter tiresome and felt a bit restrictive. But for a one-night stay the property was perfect.

Very clean and comfortable room in the city centre! 3 minutes walk from Central Station and walking distance to all the attractions! Highly recommended!!!

Easy to find. Traditional old italian building, with old cage style lift to get you up to the 5th floor. Really nice sized room, high ceilings and traditional tiles. Clean. Complete black out windows (helps me sleep). Useful furniture. Staff were friendly (but didn't speak much english). Good location next to the train station, a short walk to the Via Maqueda (main street with all the restaurants and shops and tourist stuff) as well as the Ballaro market.

The room was a little noisy, you could hear the door and buzzer everytime someone came in. The shower was a little cramped. I also found the mattress a bit soft - but you cant please everyone on this.

Good location, clean rooms with very friendly staff. We had two rooms ( one double and a triple room for our teenage boys). Comfortable beds, with good air-con. We didn’t have a kettle in the room, when we asked for one the staff provided us with this and with cups, which was appreciated. They also cleaned the room and made the beds each day for us.

Unfortunately the hotel is on the 5th floor and you have to ring the bell to be let in. Not too much of an issue as there is a lift and the staff live on site ( I think it’s family run) so someone was available at all times to let us in ( no restrictions on times when we wanted to return which is a positive!)

The accommodation was clean, the room was spacious, and the breakfast (which is delivered to the room) was delicious. Additionally, the accommodation is well-located, very close to one of Palermo's train stations and other services. The reception operates after midnight.

Despite the good size of the room, the shower space in the bathroom is small, not very suitable for larger people. Also, the reception staff was not very friendly, possibly because I arrived after midnight due to a flight delay.

Everything was fantastic! At the beginning there was a misunderstanding, because unfortunately Booking.com says that every room has a balcony, but in fact it doesn't - the lady told us that only some rooms have balconies, and we had been booked into one without, because we hadn't requested one. She only speaks Italian, and I speak a little, so we managed to sort it out and move to a different room, with a balcony (we didn't mind that it wasn't en-suite). So this was definitely Booking.com's fault!! - not hers! Make sure that you ask for a balcony specifically if you want one! The hotel is on the 5th floor (you go up with a very old, traditional lift), and there was a super view over Palermo to the mountains and the sea. It is a family-run hotel, extremely traditional, and the ONLY place we stayed in, in the whole of Sicily, where EVERYTHING WORKED! - the shower, the toilet, the bidet, the TV, etc - it was so nice to find this spotless hotel, run with pride by a lovely family. Many places at this budget are a bit decrepit, but the Albergo Cavour was the exception - I would absolutely recommend it as a convenient place to stay near Palermo station. In addition the lady gave us an excellent recommendation for a place to eat nearby in the evening, and we really enjoyed our meal! In the morning she brought our breakfast (coffee and cake, which you can choose the night before) into our room on a hostess trolley - fantastic!

Everything was perfect, except that Booking.com needs to change its information! You say that ALL rooms have balconies, but this is not true! To avoid any more misunderstandings with the lovely lady who runs the hotel, who doesn't speak English, please could you urgently change your website to say that only SOME rooms have balconies, and that if you want one, you need to request this! Thank you.

Enjoyed our one night stay in a spacious, very clean, nicely furnished room. Loved the breakfast (served in the room), we chose pistachio croissants from other sweet options - they were warm, delicious and huge :) If you crave something salty & substantial for breakfast, you can get any type of grilled street/sea food, sandwiches at the famous Ballaro market 5 min. from the hotel. The owners were kind and let us leave our big luggage for a couple of hours even after checking out, so we could explore the city freely during the day.

The inn keeper is extremely accommodating- This location is 5 Star- Breakfast is delivered to your room at your desired time and the room is very comfortable. Lots of great restaurants near by. We had a rental car and we were shocked to find a parking space for free right in front. Also My husband and I were really fascinated by the antique elevator - A great 3 nite stay😊
