What guests say

Reviews highlight the excellent central location, making it easy to explore the city on foot and access transport links like the train station and airport buses. Guests consistently praise the cleanliness, friendly and helpful staff, and a generally generous breakfast. Some mention firm or old mattresses and occasional street noise due to the city center setting, but overall, the atmosphere is described as pleasant, comfortable, and welcoming. The establishment offers good value for money and useful local tips from the hosts, making it a solid choice for visitors.

I loved it. Incredible location right in the city centre: 5–10 minutes from the port entrance, airport bus 3 minutes away, train station a little further but at most 5 minutes by bus. Quiet, charming street with great places to eat right downstairs. You are close to everything. Typical Palermo building, very beautiful, very well maintained and cool in hot weather. Single room perfect with air conditioning (I was there at the end of August and hardly needed it). The bathroom was outside (which is not the case for the other rooms that all have their bathroom inside the room), but it was not a problem at all. It is impeccably clean and locked. You can go there with your eyes closed. Breakfast was superb, plentiful, tasty and well presented. The person who received me, Jessica, is very kind and perfectly efficient. What can I say? I will certainly return. For sensitive ears (I’m very picky personally), bring earplugs. There is noise in the street (normal, we are in the centre!) and you can also hear the neighbouring rooms. But honestly it’s a minor detail. Have a good stay.

The staff is very kind and helpful. I also appreciated the location and all the services, breakfast included. I only report a bad smell in the room that unfortunately came from the shower drain.

I recommend a great spot within the ZTL, close to the center and well organized, excellent value for money.

Everything was very pleasant except for the mattress, which was very hard and not very comfortable. Central position but not too noisy, room very clean and bright. I will definitely return. I did not take advantage of the breakfast as I left very early in the morning.

Certainly positive experience and to recommend in reference to the low price paid. Clean and functional room. Optimal location in the historic center of Palermo but in a quiet area, with several venues. Convenient to reach even leaving the car a few steps away.

We stayed for just one night with breakfast. We were advised where to park the scooter and were able to arrive without problems even beyond the scheduled initial arrival time. Once inside the building, it's not very clear where the rooms and breakfast area are located. Additionally, breakfast could have been more abundant for a Bed and Breakfast, but with already several people and us being in a hurry, there wasn't much left. All in all, it was a positive stay with a nice touch like the little stove and mosquito repellent pads.

I had a very good experience at this bed and breakfast. The self check-in was very easy, also thanks to the precise and clear information received. The next morning, at breakfast, I met Giorgia, who had previously given me the information. Very nice and kind. The location of the property is excellent, just a few minutes from the bus stop from the airport and a few minutes from the central Via V. Emanuele and about ten minutes from the port. I also liked the breakfast, with fresh pastries and some savory items. As someone who prefers savory breakfasts, maybe I would have preferred a wider choice, but I appreciated everything nonetheless. The room was very quiet, in the sense that there were no external noises, but if on the last night (as it happened) you have noisy neighbors, well, it's a bit annoying.

Great spot right in the heart of Palermo! Easy to get anywhere you want to. Charming spot with air conditioning. The room we stayed in has a private bathroom, but it is detached.

A step away from the Palermo nightlife. Very helpful and kind host, very clean room. I left early and couldn't have breakfast (not even to take away) still recommended.

The entrance to the property is in need of renovations. As of today, it is so poorly maintained as to inspire anguish and fear.

I would recommend this place because of the great location and very nice hosts. We arrived early, before check-in, and Jessica welcomed us allowing us to leave our luggage and offering us coffee and croissant, giving us recommendations about the city. We decided to return to Palermo the last night of our stay in Sicily and again Jessica was very helpful in finding an available room for us. In the morning we were able to leave our stuff there after check-out. Thank you once more!

The structure is very pleasant, clean and well-kept. Excellent location. The only downside is the mattress. We reported the issue and were told that some like it hard and others soft but the problem is that the mattress in our room was simply quite old and saggy so we slept rather poorly. What a shame. I also recommend just a topper.

Comfortable, quiet, spotlessly clean B&B with original decoration by the owner. Many artistic beauties are located a short distance away, as well as a multitude of shops for those who love shopping. I recommend it to everyone and I thank Gianluca again for his friendliness, patience, and charm.

If I could rate higher, I would. From the attention to the service and especially the breakfast. It's my second time staying at a B&B and I don't think I'll find another one like THE KNIGHTS OF MALTA. Congratulations to the owner.

Recommended structure. It is central and very convenient for those arriving by train and want to move around on foot.\n\nFurniture that combines ancient Sicilian and modern colorful style. Excellent location: the rooms and the reception are located on different floors of an ancient building, but you use the elevator. Furthermore, Mrs. Elisa was truly welcoming.\n\nWe stayed for only one night, but if I were to return to Palermo, I won't look for other structures, I already know where to go.\n\nThank you.

Hello Gianluca and Luisa were very kind and helpful in assisting us on all aspects to make our visit to Palermo simple yet full of beautiful experiences; the B&B's location is wonderful in a historic center that exudes history from every bit of wall. We hope to return to Palermo, a Wonderful city, soon.
