Great find in the heart of Palermo, room was perfectly appointed and very comfortable. Very easy to walk the city from this location. Nice to have great air con and a balcony. Staff were super friendly and check in process well communicated in advance (no on site reception), room was always cleaned and refreshed well. Accessible by lift and very private and relaxing

It didn’t bother us.. but there is a bar downstairs and the noise travels. BUT this would be the case for most central accommodation in Palermo, it’s a nighttime place. If noise would bother you you’d need to stay further out. Shower was on the small side. This wasn’t an issue for us but something to be mindful of if you require more space.

Our stay at B&B Il Sonaglio was exceptional! The hospitality was outstanding- we had a last minute change in travel plans and booked the day of, the host contacted us immediately to let us know we can check in any time and reserved a parking spot for us in a lot 2 minutes away. Any time we needed help or direction, the host was always available and responded very quickly. The room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. I read some reviews that you can hear noise from the street at night, but it was very quiet and we heard nothing (and I am a very light sleeper)! The location is excellent- we were in a very cool neighborhood with lots of shops and restaurants, and just a quick walk from the center! I would absolutely stay at B&B Il Sonaglio again and highly recommend for when in Palermo!

nothing!

Very convenient location in walking distance of everything we needed. Clean and neat little property. We communicated with the host via WhatsApp which was easy and meant there was some flexibility when my arrival time changed. The bars on the street were drowned out with ear plugs at night (the music goes until 2am every night and on Saturdays a bit later) and although it was warm in the room with the balcony doors closed, the air con worked well.

For the great price, something has to give - it was the tiny bathroom and shower. The bathroom was however clean and tidy.

The beds were comfortable, the location was great, and the room had a great clean feel! The room was practical and useful, with a bench to open our suitcases on, a kettle and even a minifridge. Excellent value for money!

The drain in the shower took a bit to drain but nothing major!

Excellent location in the new part of Palermo, but very close to the historic center. Many restaurants, bars and pubs within walking distance. There is also a small cafe just opposite the B&B, where we had our breakfast (coffee, pastry, toasts, etc). The B&B is actually an apartment on the fourth floor of a residential building, with several nicely decorated rooms. Everything was clean and comfortable, Salvo and the other family members working with him were very helpful. The secure parking in a nearby garage recommended by Salvo was very convenient (15 euros per day).

The walk-in shower was rather small, A lot of noise from the nearby bars/pubs, until late into the night. Although we were warned about this by the owner in a message we received just after booking, the noise was louder than expected. Closing the windows does not help much.

Nice location, very close to the city center. The staff is very kind and the room very clean.

To much noise during the night also if the room is at the 4th floor, more and less till 1 am, due to many pub in the street. You can have some difficulties to sleep, it dipend by you and your abits
