It is so serene to sit outdoor anywhere on the property daydream,have conversation or have an exceptional drink. The bar is exceptional with its elegance,menu and service.Has historic look. The two restaurants have interesting choice menus each in their own rights and different settings.Me and my family tried several of the offerings, they were all done to perfection. The rooms are well appointed with all the conveniences ,comfort and elegance .Beautiful views of the sea and the port from the balcony.

The hotel has a great buffet breakfast with the option of getting some cooked per your request, ie omelette, fried eggs, etc. The suite was quite comfortable, quiet and clean.

"A conveniently located hotel in the heart of Palermo. The room is clean, well kept, spacious, and comfortable. The staff is friendly, polite, helpful. They were kind enough to take out my car from the garage the night before, and had it waiting for us close by due to our early departure time. An excellent place to stay in Palermo!"

Hotel Mediterraneo

10/10 Excellent
"As a 3-star hotel, the Mediterraneo is excellent value for money and perfectly situated close to the Teatro Massimo and via Macqueda. The breakfast is excellent. However, it is a pity there is no kettle in the room for making tea or coffee. Also, there was no shower cap or shower gel. I have been coming to the Mediterraneo for 51 years (since 1975!). It has always been great under successive management. However, I would like to see a little more by way of facilities in the room, including also a stocked mini-bar."
