What people say

interior decoration, friendliness of staff. Fantastic hotel on the main road from the train station to the centre of the old part of town. Renaissance furniture everywhere and a huge bed in the room. Was very quiet, but we went off season so it could be louder in the summer.Room is very amazing and spacious for a single person; view from the room is superb, near the railway station, close proximity to tourist attractions, hotel staff is friendly and helpful... really made a memorable stay at Palermo.
all reviews » The decoration of the rooms. Very friendy staff always willing to help, whether it be with general queries, train times, directions or restaurant recommendations. Good location close to the station but within easy reach of the modern town. Clean room - good size and comfortable. One factor for booking was the fact that it was advertised as gay friendly, which was certainly the case. Thank you. Very friendly staff. Clean and nicely apppointed in traditional Sicilian style. Air conditioning.Really friendly staff. centrally located to station and historic center. Easy walk to most other sites European style nice decor. Location, pleasant stay, beautiful common room. Location (near to train station and city center) Helpful personnel: They help me a lot for getting my lost bagage. They are very friendly as well.Nice Hotel beautiful rooms. Godd position for historical sites within Palermo.closeness to railway station, staff. The hotel Alessandra is only for sleep. Don´t offer you nothing besides a bed, shower and for the breakfast in the pasticerias is not so good. One more thing: becareful: our guide tour dismissed there.The staff is friendly, professional and ready to help you out. The room is clean. convenient location, close to the train station. Location. Having to check out by 10am.breakfast is not at the hotel itself and the food served at the cafe is poor, hotel should provide basic amenities such as iron if needed, the hotel is located at the top floor and it's a struggle to reach up for people with heavy luggage. The bathroom of the next room was next to ours and al the sounds could be heard clearly. 1. The ground floor entrance from the street is shared with another hotel and is grubby and poorly lit. 2. The Alessandra is on the second floor (72 steps) and there is no lift. 3 No food or bar is available in the hotel and Breakfast has to be taken in a cafe 200+m up the road by way of voucher. 4 Room very noisy (traffic), Room requires double/secondary glazing urgently. Treated to the "oops ... the credit card reader is broken today". Note that the hotel is on the "second floor", but that is the equivalent of four normal floors - no elevator. Parking is in the street, haphazard luck.The bed was terrible. Still my back hurts. They must change the beds. Breakfast: Actually they provide a breakfast ticket for a small bar 100 meters away. With that ticket you can buy 1 coffe and 1 piece of patisseria. Normally this costs 2 euro. If you like to eat or drink more you need to pay. The room to the street was a bit noisy. 75 steps up to the reception, and very noisy at night and early morning in rooms overlooking the Via Maqueda. Breakfast noit sufficent. not posible to pay with credit card, not posible to receive phone calls on the room. The room was small and the room was open to the road so it was loud in the weekend-night. The windows are old and wooden so they don't isolate well.old, no elevator (when luggages are heavy), small shower room with problem of water drainage. yes, our bed was infested with bugs. Staff reluctant to relocate us. In spite of a matress change, our bed was again infested on the 2nd night and we were relocated again. We asked management for a discount due to the circumstances and the fact that we had 2 broken nights sleep. They were very reluctant, felt that because they gave us another room this was sufficient. Eventually offered us 10%.Laughable,non-smoking hotel, although I booked smoking. Tiny room,crudefurniture, wc and bathroom were in a seperate room down the corridor,shower missing half a door,rusted soap tray."Breakfast" consisted ofobtaining a voucher at reception, walking down the road to apatisserie,with proffered voucher, to exchange for a coffee andcroissant.
