Ballarò Hotel

What we loved about this property was Bartolo. He was unfailingly helpful, kind and knowledgeable. He made our stay better.

Super perfect location excellent breakfast and located within walking of the old city

Beautiful hotel. Front desk was very kind and helpful. Everything was clean, felt safe, great location and would absolutely stay here again.

The property is indeed unique- a very modern and nicely fitted out hotel, hidden away in a crumbling atmospheric palazzo. My bed was comfortable, my water hot, my sockets all working. It fely very safe, breakfast was nice, the staff excptional. Very close to the station, but on a main street in the old city. Only disadvantage: no lift. So for people who can't do stairs, it's ill advised. I loved the hotel and would certainly choose it again.

Stayed 1 night. Clean Room and bathroom. Worked out great

Great location in between the Central Station and the Four Quarters. Stunning and intriguing location. Good communication from Chiara.

Although the hotel is located in an old department building, this is a well kept and very clean establishment, with a helpfull staff. The breakfast was sufficient and well-served. Only downside was the neighbourhood, that was somewhat on the "sleezy" side. But with a gate and frontdoor that was locked all the time, it was never a problem and we were never worried.

It was in a great location.Found finding the hotel in the dark difficult, as the sign for the hotel was small.

Ballarò hotel was a great option for a few nights at an affordable price. Complimentary breakfast was good, and close walk to Palermo Centrale for travel.

Beautiful hotel just 10 minutes walking from the main intersection in Palermo’s historical neighborhood

We arrived in Palermo at night.  Being unsure of where we needed to go, we followed our map app until we found the site.  We were confused, tired, and I'm sorry to say a bit grumpy.  We didn't understand (or remember) this hotel was inside a structure built in the 1300's.  I apologized for my rudeness upon first arriving (and after a good night's sleep).  This hotel was very good.  I recommend it to travelers providing they understand it isn't a Hilton; it's a historical building in a city thousands of years old.  It is close to the train station and several beautiful churches and good food!

Once we were able to find the property it was good but it was difficult to find, we arrived at night and the area was a little sketchy. We were lead to believe parking was available and it wasn’t close. However, the hotel was located in a unique building, room had a balcony overlooking the old town streets and breakfast room and food was amazing. My recommendation is arrive during the day, the area feels completely different then and don’t drive in Palermo if you can avoid it.

I paid $67 for the cheapest available room. Room was clean. The exterior door to the balcony has no weather or soundproofing. It sounds like you are right outside next to the traffic (all night).I would look for another property in a similar price range next time due to the sound. But this hotel and in a good location

Simple, clean rooms with everythingyou need for a short stay including a fridge and daily clean linen. Good location, close to the train/bus station and historic centre. Very helpful, we arrived before check-in and we able to change and leave our luggage which the put in our room when it was free. Messaged us to let us know when the room was avaliable and we we able to leave bags on our last day as we had a late flight. Breakfast was lots of pastries. Would stay again.

This was the most amazing hotel experience - from behind the entrance to the street it was like entering another world - a palatial old worldly mansion. The new hotel tucked up inside was perfectly clean . We had a 4 bed room with massive amount of space, high ceilings , bathroom , aircon & spotlessly clean . The staff were so welcoming & friendly & breakfast was ideal. Unfortunately I can’t give 5 stars as the neighbourhood felt very unsafe - and travelling with kids it was quite daunting. Would have felt quite fearful if we couldn’t get through the main gate quickly. For adults looking for a slice of the majestic old world Palermo it would be fine. Very convenient to Quattro Canti … 7mins - straight road.

This hotel was great. The room was clean, had everything I needed (and not to be American about it but the aircoditioning in my room worked great).. The staff were very welcoming and understanding, especially when there was a very serious screw up on my part regarding my reservation dates. I liked the location since it was super convenient to be near the central train station; the farthest I had to go to get anywhere was to get the bus that goes to Monreale. Getting to and from Cefal and the airport was easy. I took two busses to get to Mondello but the stop to start the journey was just around the corner. If you don’t mind walking a normal vacation amount, you are near the Palermo highlights. The old palazzo is handsome, and there’s a beautiful trompe l’œil just hanging out in the breakfast area. If you need a pristine neighborhood, this is not quite your place but I felt perfectly safe (I was reminded by a shop owner to watch my bag once) Breakfast is standard but good (and again, very warmly staffed).  If you’re a solo traveler, I definitely recommend this spot for quality of accommodations, quality of staff, and location.

Great stay!

My experience of Ballaro is good, clean and good location but your expectation may vary.It is a budget hotel and you get what you pay for. Me with wife and daughter had a 'family room' which was good, 2 rooms with shower. This should be pointed out, not all rooms have bathroom so see check what you book.Staff I saw at check-in and breakfast but I had contact on whatsapp if something was needed.We stayed two nights to have a day in Palermo before getting to the airport. If I ever again need one or a few nights in Palermo I could very well stay at Ballaro again.

Average budget hotel

Loved the hotel and staff....was kind of in a rough area untill we walked up a couple blicks and then was awesome in tje midst of everywhere youd want to be....the hotel from the outside was completely deceiving as when u opened tje doors its like stepping into some kinda palace! The room was clean and great and comfy bed and staff was amazing and the free breakfast was really good!
