Our stay at Hotel Principe di Villafranca was good. Checking in and out was a breeze. The staff was both friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included in the stay. We cannot speak on the parking situation as we did not have a rental car. It was a 25 minute walk to the town center and plenty of cafes, restaurants and shops in vicinity

I recently stayed at the Hotel Principe di Villafranca in Palermo from May 25th to May 28th, and unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. Despite being a four-star hotel, the service I received was well below par. Upon arrival, the receptionists were extremely rude, behaving as if they were doing us a favor by accepting our booking and speaking with us. Not once did I see them smile or exhibit a friendly attitude. When we inquired about a late check-in, our request was bluntly denied. Our booking included two rooms, but upon check-in, we were informed that only one room was reserved. They reluctantly provided a second room, which was notably smaller. To make matters worse, despite it being well past midnight, we were abruptly called and visited by hotel staff, demanding that we change rooms immediately. They couldn’t wait until the morning, causing unnecessary stress and inconvenience. The overall attitude of the reception staff was consistently unwelcoming and unprofessional. They rarely greeted us unless we initiated the interaction, never smiled, and often appeared angry and impatient. On a positive note, the cleaning staff, janitors, and breakfast room attendants were kind and courteous, which was a small consolation in an otherwise disappointing stay. However, the breakfast itself was nothing special and did not meet the standards expected of a four-star hotel. Given the high prices and poor service, I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone.

I stayed here for three weeks. The staff upgraded my room to one with a balcony, which is great to have-- but both rooms were very nice. The beds are very comfortable, though I do wish they had black-out curtains. The staff was very helpful in assisting me in finding services I needed to fully enjoy my stay in Palermo. The housekeeping staff was diligent and friendly, greatly enjoyed them. I don't usually eat breakfast at hotels, but I did here. The buffet was simple but had something for everyone: eggs, meat, some lovely sweet treats, and great coffee. Even though it was a buffet, the server was always present and happy to get whatever you wanted. The location is quiet--but very, very close to the historic center. I enjoyed the short walk, and i also enjoyed the proximity to more 'local ' cafés, etc. I would be happy to stay here again.

The hotel room was a great surprise. It was definitely comfortable with really nice beds and linens. There were duvets on the bed. The bathroom was not large but it was fine. And the breakfast offered was fine even though the room was very hot. The only bad thing about the hotel was the €100 taxi ride from the Palermo airport. we walked to one of the squares and enjoyed a nice dinner

This was the worst four-star hotel I've ever been to. although the reception was nice, from the outside and the common areas looked good, but the service was terrible, the staff didn't even see us, the breakfast was very poor, but the worst thing was the cleanliness. There was a terrible smell in the room and mold in the shower. This is Deluxe room in 4-star hotel.

hotel situated just behind designer stores if you like that sort of thing. room itself was comfortable but not too fancy. did the job perfectly as it was within walking distance of town centre yet far enough away from hustle and bustle. staff were excellent

Clean and modernized with wonderful and attentive staff. Note if you have a car make sure you make a reservation for parking at the time of hotel booking, space is a premium in the city. Great service including laundry delivered on time and ironed. Excellent location walkable to all points of interest and nice little restaurants just a block away.

Our room was clean and comfortable, though not fancy at all. Breakfast was a nice buffet, included in the room fee. The location was convenient, as we could walk to everything we wanted to see. The staff were helpful with recommendations to restaurants and such. The exterior of the building is rather drab, without clear signage indicating that it is indeed the hotel, and buildings across and on the street are covered in graffiti, so the first impression of the hotel is not good. It looks like a bad neighborhood. But it turned out to be fine….much of Palermo looks this way, with litter and graffiti, which is really sad.

The property was in a great location and convenient to everything. Walked everywhere and never a concern as it was in one of the best areas of Paris. Ate at the brassiere attached to the hotel several times as the food was great there.

Location was very good, 15 mins walk to the old town. Car park was in the basement. Staff was friendly. Only the rain shower was dripping even though we are using the hand held shower. Because if the tour group, for breakfast we have to book our timing

The property was a great value in a great location. Within walking distance from the train station, shopping area with tons of restaurants and bars near by.

Wifi signal did not even register in the room on a laptop and was so weak to be unusable on a mobile. Cleaning was poor and the toilet had wasted water running down the drain for 5 days. Tea and coffee were not replenished each day and cups and saucers not changed or washed.

Disappointing 3 day stay. First room was not well cleaned. They did give us a different room after the first night. Overall the property needs to be updated as it is worn down. The Wi-Fi sucked in both rooms we stayed in. Using the parking garage on site was a pain and we opted for street parking after the first night.

Perfect location to explore the city, good non touristy restaurants around the hotel. The area is residential but steps from the touristy area. Our room was spacious, nothing upper scale but just right. The internet wasn’t reliable, lots of times wouldn’t work, specially late night or in the mornings. Staff is so friendly, helpful and accommodating, if you ask for recommendations they will share so many good tips! Monica at the front desk was dear to us, she gave us so many tips on what to do and all recommendations were spot on including day driving trips. We didn’t like the breakfast, not freshest ingredients and poor presentation, but the waitress was very nice. Parking worked out well, they don’t have a lot of spaces but had availability for us, even let us keep the space until late on check out date. We were not recognized as gold hotels.com gold members, so no perks. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and would recommend it.
