10/10 Exceptional

Quirky little hotel in what appears to be an historic residential apartment building. Clean and quite modern rooms with shower and wc. Nice breakfast and plenty of tea and coffee, served in an amazing room with a ceiling akin to the Cistene Chapel! Located within easy walking distance of the Cathedral, the Royal Palace and the marina. Amazing street market nearby. Great service; we were late into Palermo and didn't arrive until ten minutes after reception 'closed', but big shout out to Arif who kept in touch via WhatsApp and waited for us to arrive.
Stuart, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved every single moment. It was authentic, beautiful beyond belief and more than a value for the price. The staff was very helpful giving me clear instructions every step of the way; from the arrival at Palermo airport and where to catch the transfer to finding the hotel, even shouting my name from the balcony as the premises are ‘hidden’ from the main street therefore safe and secluded. You feel like you are staying in a beautiful palazzo not in a low key hotel and that’s truly priceless.

The hotel's exterior is unassuming, with not much clear signage, but the inside courtyard is nice. The rooms were large and clean, and the external separate bathroom was nicely appointed. For a budget stay, I definitely recommend.
Justin, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very basic but clean and safe and comfortable without frills. Staff was friendly, breakfast was a nice bonus and the cool old royal palace was definitely interesting. Location is easy, perhaps be cautious at night but otherwise didn’t feel unsafe.

6/10 Good

Once inside it’s quite decent and good value for money. A grand old building with very comfortable, well air conditioned and clean rooms. Checkin is a let down, I even emailed ahead to ask for Checkin details and no response. There is a locked door at the street entrance with security code and if no one at front desk you get stranded outside. Could be easily fixed by providing the code on day of Checkin. Aldo be aware there is no staff onsite at night. Besides that it’s great value.

Hotel Ballaro is gorgeous; walking up the grand staircase into the hotel area almost feels like you could be a background character in Romeo and Juliet. Unfortunately, our room wasn't ready on our arrival, despite having sent our flight information ahead of time, and we were missed receiving the instructions on how to actually enter the building once we found it, but once that was sorted out, we had a lovely stay.

What we loved about this property was Bartolo. He was unfailingly helpful, kind and knowledgeable. He made our stay better.
Paula, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Poor value and terrible access

It was very difficult to get inside when we arrived - nobody answered the bell when we rang and we only got in when a resident came along. When we did get inside we were dismayed by the state of the courtyard as it was very hard to pull our luggage over the extremely uneven surface; and then what made it worse was the steps up to reception!! This was not mentioned in the listing. Whilst the room was OK it lacked a lot of things you’d expect in any basic hotel. The air conditioning did not function properly in our room. The only saving grace was that we were quite near the station and were able to walk up Via Maqueda to find somewhere for dinner. Overall a poor experience for the high price we paid for the room!

Very clean & comfortable hotel close to the train station & within easy walking distance to the historic centre. The staff were very nice , cheerful & helpful.

8/10 Very good

Elegance for less.

We arrived in the evening and had a somewhat difficult time finding the entrance as there is no evident sign. There are many stairs and no lift, so travel light. The room was spare but clean and had a wonderful bed and the old palazzo was very quiet. It was all very clean and the breakfast was good and in a most picturesque room.

A great stay

It was a great hotel at a historic building. The location was perfect. The staff was super helpful.
min, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great spot. Once you get inside, you’re greeted by an impressive early modern courtyard, with a set of stairs that are in themselves inspiring. As far as the hotel itself goes, a mere floor of a much grander building, everything is modern and efficient. The breakfast was typical Italian fare, with coffee, juice, fruit, and an excellent selection of pastries and jams. While a bit of a trek from the port, the hotel is a mere fall away from the train station, connecting you to the rest of Italy and Europe. If there were a downside, it’s a bit anonymous, with no central lounge or place for staff and travellers to interact.
