5 out of 5

Gives the vibe of old times

Pros: Decor, breakfast

Cons: needs some refreshment

Location: It's in a good location close to all the attractions

Overall the experience has been pleasant, the hotel definitely saw better times of glory, but it was nice and clean and the decor gives you a gentle vibe of old times. Breakfast was very tasty as well.

Chaotic Palermo

Great stay at the Grand Hotel et Des Palmes, some reviews said it was a tired old hotel, but we thought it exuded class from every room, the history, the decor the food, wonderful! Thanks for a great week.

A Treat of a Retreat

The Grand Hotel etc is a wonderful, atmospheric and slightly faded hotel which cannot but evoke feelings of another century. I've never stayed in a hotel with such individual style. And the facilities are very good, the rooms clean and comfortable, and the bathrooms spacious with a bath in which I could really stretch out. The staff were efficient and courteous. Everyone should try the experience of a predinner cocktail in the hotel reception room.... you get a decent drink and plenty of side nibbles. And there are plenty of spacious function rooms on the ground floor to which one can retreat and have a quiet read in 19th century surroundings, If you have the money to spend it may be worth your while to check out their dinner menu (not promoted very well hence we only learned of it on our last night but the dining room looked and sounded very lively).

Grand hotel in central Palermo

We were very happy with our stay, the room was comfortable and clean and breakfast was plentiful. Only complaint was not enough staff at breakfast.

Great hotel, good location, fabulous decor

We absolutely loved our stay here. The breakfast room is stunning, as is the buffet breakfast. Really comfortable rooms, very clean. The location is perfect for walking around Palermo. Easy to find as it is on a main street and yet the room was quiet at night. Staying here made our short break in Palermo really special.

Faded Glamour but great location

The location of the hotel was great. The rooms were large and clean. Breakfast was good if you got there early.. ..things seem to run out quickly.

Classic central hotel

This is a perfectly reasonable hotel which is good value if booked in advance. It's very central, but our room (which was on a side street) was surprisingly quiet in the morning. The general feeling of the place was of a stately hotel in decline, with everything looking a little worse for wear. That said, our room was beautifully furnished - everything in it was modern and good quality including the shower and bed which were both huge. There is parking which costs an extra 21 euros a day but it's pretty convenient - you just hand in your keys at reception and they move the car to a garage for you - it only takes 20 mins to return it when you need it. Breakfast was included and it was fine - there was a nice touch of including sparkling wine as part of the buffet. The staff were fine and all spoke pretty good English, but they only get 3 because our room was late to be prepared and, when it was, no one thought to tell us so we had to ask again. The room was also difficult to find and ideally we would have been given directions. It's a classic hotel and somewhere very different to stay in Palermo. There are less stuffy places (though again, the room was fine, it was more the other areas that seemed a bit run down), and the bar closes a bit early, but overall if you can get this for a good price then it's worth a go - the main entrance hall and breakfast room in particular are wonderful.
