Learn more about Palermo

Lose yourself in the chaotic beauty of ancient markets where vendors hawk exotic produce and street food with theatrical flair. The Arab-Norman architecture dazzles at every turn, especially in the Cappella Palatina with its jaw-dropping golden mosaics. Teatro Massimo offers cultural performances in a setting so grand it featured in 'The Godfather.' After sampling arancini from street carts, escape to Mondello Beach where locals perfect the art of stylish seaside lounging. The Vucciria and Ballarò markets pulse with centuries of Mediterranean commerce, while Quattro Canti marks the crossroads where the city's historic quarters meet. Come hungry - Palermo rewards those willing to embrace its beautiful chaos.

Quintocanto Hotel and Spa

8/10 Good
"The hotel was pleasant enough. Charming old building, decent room, very nice courtyard for breakfast and dinner. One complaint, we booked a taxi from the airport to the hotel through the hotel. When our flight was delayed and we missed our connection we messaged the hotel well in advance to let them know we would be arriving later in the day. Several hours later we received a message saying we would be charged for 75 euro and they would charge another 75 euro to meet us later that day. It then took multiple calls to eliminate the charge and arrange the revised pickup. The only explanation I can come up with is that they don't check the messages and so can't update the driver. But the fact that they attempted to charge us shows either contempt for their customers or complete ignorance. I would suggest just grabbing a cab at the airport when you arrive. All in all it was okay but would't stay there again."
