Palazzo Dei Poeti

Very high quality apartment hotel. We got everything we needed. Rooms very nicely decorated, all needed items are in the kitchen and if we needed something, we got it from the reception very quick. Owner also is a great and helpful person. Hotel is in the heart of old town close to shops and the sea. Highly recommended place.
We will definitely come back to Sicily  and to this hotel particularly.

Beautiful location right in the middle of the picturesque city centre, full of bars and restaurants, and few steps away from the seaside, rooms are clean and comfortable, friendly and very helpful staff

This is right in the centre and the Accomodation is really nice. Extremely clean spacious and quiet. The palazzo is 18 c well restored and the perfect place to stay.. The apartments are well equipped and nicely furnished. Tra pain is very nice and near to the egadi  islands

Fantastic location right on the edge of the pedestrianised historic centre. Check with hotel staff for car parking within walking distance. Accommodation itself was a spacious bottom floor flat with split level sleeping accommodation. All appliances supplied including iron and washing machine. Slept our family of 5 no problems. 2 bathrooms in our flat was welcome.  Only negative points were: smell of damp and lack of natural light due to being on ground floor. Hotel demanded "tourist tax" payment for stay. These hidden charges should be made clear at reservation; still wasn't big money but you wonder whether is really is a legitimate tax or scamming you for extra money,

Beautiful accommodation in great location

Excellent location

We booked via booking.com for an 8 night stay at the end of September.
For sightseeing old Trapani, eating out and spending time relaxing at the beach the location of 
Palazzo dei Poeti is perfect. 

It is a very beautiful 18th century Italian villa located behind impressive wooden doors just a few minutes walk from a range of bars restaurants and designer shops and slightly longer jaunt to the port and local beaches.

Our ground floor one bedroom apartment had a slightly weird layout with a narrow lounge, kitchen, bathroom and terraced area furnished throughout in a modern style with a large double bed, one wardrobe and ample drawers, table and chairs, sofa and bedroom chair.
The kitchen was clean, very basically equipped with little enough storage for anyone wanting to cook proper meals.
But as we like to eat out every day we only made ourselves coffee and cold drinks in the room. The fridge was in the lounge area at end opposite the kitchen and the kettle needed to be on the floor to reach a plug socket unfortunately.

A large modern well equipped bathroom with a washing machine added was good if a little dark. 

The apartment was cleaned once during our 8 day stay, not particularly well (perhaps I'm a bit too fussy) but all towels/bedding replaced. One loo roll supplied at beginning of stay and again on cleaning day. So perhaps remember to buy/bring your own if you are in need of a more generous allowance for your stay.

The apartment had a damp smell and a dehumidifier supplied needed to be on and emptied frequently - due to local climate I guess. 

We felt the apartment was not particularly well sound proofed - work being done upstairs until around 5:30pm by builders was quite noisy so generally we didn't use the patio/terrace area other than to dry our beach towels and kept windows closed at night. 

Just a few things to note:-

The hotel was not easy to find being off a one way system where street names are shortened and not as listed on the hotel's website (google maps sent us round and round several streets on foot with suitcases until my feet ached and my eyesight not being great we walked past the building several times. Signage of some sort would have helped. 

The hotel IS located just behind the large postal office building at Vialo Regina Margherita on junction between Via Cavour and Via Bernardo (Bonaluto).

There is no parking on site - if travelling by car use the nearest 'free' public car park (about 600m away) and be aware 
'free' parking here means...isn't quite completely free as it seems to be 'run' by a group of fellas who are a little bit pushy for a few €'s in return for finding you a space even when car park empty. We managed to get away with it a few times by insisting it was supposed to be free and that we could pay on our return but they were very persistent and sometimes it was easier to just pay. No one bar a few confident locals seemed to manage to avoid giving the 'donation'!

In conclusion Palazzo dei Poeti was perfect for its 
location perhaps just not ideal for our vacation accommodation.
