Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Porta de Castro was a wonderful stay. The only thing is if you want quiet, the street it is located on is busy and quite a bit of honking. Didn’t bother me, popped in some ear buds at night. The breakfast and staff were amazing!!! I felt very welcomed and the staff helped me with any questions, plus lots of suggestions on what to do in the areas. Very convenient to walk to almost any place, including the train station.

Very centrally located. This is a very stylish boutique hotel with very interesting and original interior design features. In spite of being really central in a densely populated part of Palermo there was an attractive small outdoor swimming pool and parking for a car. All the staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The breakfasts were incredibly generous and tasty and they even provided a 'doggy bag' to take some of the food away for a picnic lunch.

This is a wonderful place to stay. I traveled alone and everyone was very helpful. The property is beautiful—it was once a church and still has some of the original beautiful details. The staff are all terrific—a special shout-out to Romina who welcomed me and to Rosanna for seeing me off. I highly recommend Porta di Castro.

Cool artsy hotel
Really enjoyed our stay. Owner, hosts, service and breakfasts were great. Room very comfortable. Hotel decor is very eclectic/bohemian. Location is good for those who like to walk … if new to area, difficult driving and locating hotel. Don’t recommend car rental. Really get a taste of Palermo living. Loved it ❤️❤️❤️

We LOVED staying at the Porta di Castro, very beautiful property with attention to detail. The staff were amazing, so helpful and knowledgeable and always greeted you with a smile. They made you feel like family. The property is very central to all the shops and attractions. You must try the spa its relaxing and so tranquil. The pool is prefect for a quick dip to refresh after a day of sightseeing or just to unwind, especially in the summer months. The breakfast is plentiful as well and delicious with lots of variety. Grazie Mille💚🤍❤️

We loved our stay! The breakfast was the best we had on our whole 2 week trip. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the hotel was within walking distance to many of the main attractions. They had valet underground parking that was perfect. The room was clean and they upgraded us free of charge. Overall, we had an amazing experience. I would highly recommend this hotel. We did not use the pool so I can’t comment on it.

There probably aren’t enough stars for me to rate this perfect little boutique hotel . If I could rate a 20 I would . From reception the night we checked in to where Rosalea warmed us in as if we were family with homemade cannoli to Margaret who went over and above in helping us with suggestions for eating & item of AC to be quickly fixed to the array of delicacies placed in front of us for breakfast to the location of this hotel to walking distance to everything . They welcomed us as if we were the only ones in their home ( of course everyone treated the same . What a gem . It’s an artsy boutique hotel & spa . Don’t miss
