Ideal location
B&B Ponticello is a small B&B very close to the railway station and all the main attractions. Stayed there for a few days and found the room very clean, breakfast was buffet style. Emmanuel was a very helpful, caring host

Amazing host Emanuele that communicated everything I needed to know prior to my arrival and also during my stay. Conveniently located and you can walk to the main cultural sites of Palermo! I 100% recommend Ponticello hotel to anytime who want to have pleasant stay in the city! Emanuele (the host) deserves a 5 star award !!!

GREAT PROPERTY IN THE HEART OF PALERMO
Throughly enjoyed our four night stay here. The property is within walking distance of the station and is near the pedestrian streets. You can walk and visit nearly all the sites from here. The property was fantastic, spotlessly clean, very comfortable and a great breaky served by your host. There were plenty of options of pastries, tarts, yoghurt, cereal and also savory options which we loved. It is upstairs but our lovely host was there to help with the bags. Would highly recommend, great value for money, and what makes it even more special is that you can see the love that has gone into the property and it is special!

Worst ever
We thought we were staying in a band b (bed and breakfast) but it seems this is untrue if you want breakfast it was an additional 8 euros and from what we saw it wasn’t worth it to me saying you are a band b is false advertising, room extremely small box room size and no windows, drains in bathroom smelt of raw sewage , no free water provided had to pay for everything additionally so would I stay again definitely not and would I recommend absolutely NO how the owner can say he has 9.6 from booking . Com is beyond me not sure where the reviews are coming from. We had been looking forward to Palermo and this experience has been the worst of our 2.5 weeks in Italy

Camera pulita e personale davvero gentile, proprietario molto gentile. Posizione ottima, a 2 minuti a piedi dai 4 canti. Buona offerta di ristoranti e negozi. Unica pecca il non avere una scrivania in camera per poter lavorare e la camera senza finestre
