Description
In the vibrant heart of Palermo, the Grand Sultanate of Abalì welcomes guests into an atmosphere that is both ironic and elegant, where every detail is designed to provide an extraordinary stay. Canopies, round beds, and Jacuzzis in the suites blend with feather pillows and satin sheets, turning each night into a luxurious and comfortable experience.
The breakfast room, lively and colorful, is furnished with unique handcrafted furniture, which has become the establishment's distinctive symbol. The continental breakfast features coffee, tea, cappuccino, yogurt, fruit juices, or fresh fruit, accompanied by cereals, cookies, croissants, cakes, and bread with jams. Gluten-free options are also available, and upon request, an American breakfast with cold cuts and savory dishes can be provided.
Located in the historic center, between Via Sant’Agostino and Via Maqueda, the B&B is set in a pedestrian area just a short walk from the Teatro Massimo, Quattro Canti, and the bustling Capo market. Once a ceramics workshop belonging to the grandmother and a painting studio for the mother, the Sultanate is the brainchild of Vito, who left Milan in 2008 to bring back his playful and artistic spirit to Palermo. Today, the Grand Sultanate of Abalì offers a journey within a journey, a place that surprises and captivates with its myriad colors and inspirations.

Vito Petrotta, born in Palermo, has lived in Sicily, Paris, and Milan.
After a wonderful childhood spent playing in the old house of Mondello, a place where everything can be created and where nothing has been discarded for at least four generations.
This residence once served as his grandmother's ceramic studio and his mother's painting studio. Creativity runs in the family, which is why Vito left Milan in 2008 to return to Palermo and launch the Sultanate of Abalì, a colorful and whimsical B&B where guests can enjoy the pleasures of play and relaxation in a king-size canopy bed or a round bed, surrounded by a Jacuzzi and frescoed ceilings.
At this point, the creative spirit doesn’t stop, and he introduces his first collection of clothing, specifically coats made from high-quality upholstery fabrics that complement the Bed and Breakfast's theme. From this point, it was a short leap to creating bags—come and discover the rest at the Gran Sultanato di Abalì..

We stayed here around New Year's. As also specified on their business card, the entrance, the elevator, and the stairs are badly maintained and smelly... in short, it doesn't look good. The B&B is cute, with many colors and the owner Vito is very helpful. The breakfast is too packaged... Except for the tray of pastries in the morning. But it must be said that in the South breakfast is not important. The location is splendid... central... you can reach everywhere.
