The Reveal

Bright and new one-bedroom apartment on the 3rd floor of a period building with elevator. The apartment is within walking distance from the city's Arab-Norman itinerary and close to the main tourist attractions, but the proximity to transportation (train station, metro, bus station and bus stops all within 200mt) makes it easy to move around even outside the city. It is a stone's throw from the historic Ballarò market and close to supermarkets, pharmacies and a variety of food services (bars, restaurants, street-food).

The lodging The accommodation, with flat-screen TV, is comfortable for 4 people (double bed + 2 comfortable armchair beds) with the possibility of a fifth crib for baby. The bathroom has a shower and hair dryer. A compact kitchen is equipped with mini fridge, stove, kettle, coffee maker and what you need to prepare and eat your meals. The accommodation has a balcony overlooking the main street and is equipped with air conditioning and heating for a comfortable climate

Nearby Attractions

Close to the main tourist attractions ( Cathedral, Massimo and Politeama theaters, Royal Palace, Botanical Garden, Quattro Canti....) reachable from 5 to 15 min. on foot, the neighborhood, due to its proximity to the historic Ballarò market, turns out to be picturesque and lively and one of the beating hearts of the city. The two-room apartment is located in a larger apartment consisting of a studio and another two-room apartment for a total of 10 beds (4********2), convenient for large groups. The accommodation is located in the heart of the Arab-Norman tourist route. Also 'the neighborhood given its strategic central location, allows in a few minutes walk to visit other historic markets such as the Vucciuria and the Cape, admire the adjacent parks, historic villas and spend pleasant walks By the sea at the Foro Italico and the Cala ( living room on the most 'ancient port of Palermo) , in which there are also some pubs, bistros, and restaurants). The Foro Italico, or Marina promenade, (called until 1861 Foro Borbonico or Foro Siciliano) is a large green area that forms one of Palermo's waterfronts. It extends from the Cala to Villa Giulia, in the Kalsa district. The Foro italico is an invitation to the sea in the city. It is possible to picnic on the lawn, enjoy excellent ice cream, visit nearby Porta Felice, the Spasimo, villa Giulia, passeggiata delle cattive, the Kalsa and the Botanical Garden. Beautiful is the waterfront with adjacent gardens, if you want you can continue to the cove by going around the harbor. Nearby is also the health park (free) recommended for children. Located at the Foro Italico, just a few steps from the sea and Porta Felice, the Health Park was born on the ashes of a portion of urban coastline abandoned and wisely redeveloped to make way for an environment dedicated to sports and outdoor activities for young and old, healthy and disabled children, the elderly and people who have a particularly frail condition due to illness. Recommended to everyone for a nice walk. Also worth mentioning is La Cala, near the Port of Palermo, which is an evocative location especially at sunset where you can find everything from moored boats to pubs to sip a good aperitif with friends. Gardens, bars, clubs, street food,sea,bars, and small beaches form a fantastic setting, especially in the evening. It is an ideal place for a walk with your partner. There are various benches and seats and a restaurant right by the sea. Other things to highlight The accommodation is located inside the Limited Traffic Zone 100 meters from the access gate. The pass, even daily, can be purchased at tobacconists and Amat points. If by car, get pass or park outside the ZTLa 100 mt: from where you are the city will be conveniently visitable on foot!

Thank you so much Pierpaolo. Unfortunately it's a land that suffers from many prejudices, but once you get to know it, they disappear like snow in the sun. Happy to have met you. I look forward to seeing you on your next vacation to Palermo!

The apartment is located in the historic center. On foot you can reach the major attractions of the Norman-Swabian city. Matteo proved to be an excellent host with great flexibility and communication skills. The apartment is welcoming and renovated in a modern style. If I'm in Palermo again I'll stay here. I highly recommend it!
