Carini Portobello - Le Gallerie del Risparmio Hotels

"This hotel was where we stayed the night before our 6am flight home, so we were mainly there for proximity to the airport. It's still 16 minutes drive from the airport but the closest I could find. The staff were really helpful in lining up the shuttle to/from the airport, but the shuttle is pretty expensive, at 55 Euros at 4:30am. (35 Euros during the day.) The room was clean and we ate both lunch and dinner in the hotel dining room. The food is reasonably priced and decent. Breakfast was included in our room but since we left at 4:30am, they provided us with a packed breakfast to take with us. My only wish was that there had been a way to walk out the back of the hotel down to the beach. I gather that it may be less safe to walk on the beach at night, but we would have gone down there during the afternoon if we'd been able to get through there."

"A truly underrated hotel! The staff, accommodations, food and service were amazing! The views of Palermo from our balcony were great and being outside the city centre away from the hustle and bustle was refreshing. If you have a car it is definitely easier to come and go (driving is not for the faint of heart though, so be warned) being that it is up the mountain, but they provide a shuttle service both to and from the city centre and airport for a reasonable price. "

"While there, we saw from the balconies, the 49er and 49er fx competitions, as well as the participants tryouts with windsurfing.A very active waterfront, including many higher quality dining venues. A wonderful town with open air and coop markets very friendly people.Guissepe made our stay one of welcome and comfort. (made us feel like home)Only downside, was the UPSIDE.... 3 floors up, and then another to go to bed....a well earned rest.Again, our thanks to a wonderful host"

"From the moment I met the beautiful young lady who took me to my room to the next morning when she invited me up on the rooftop deck for breakfast, the room and service was amazing. The view of the sea and the mountain was unbelievable. Thank you and I will be back. Pictures are view from my room and balcony "
