We stayed at the Joli for 5 nights on our arrival for a 3 week visit to Sicily. We had a spacious room on the 3rd floor with a reasonably sized bathroom and balcony overlooking the park. A little north of the tourist center, but an easy walk to attractions and restaurants. The staff were helpful, the breakfast more than... more

My family stayed in a Quad room and it was roomy. The continental breakfast was nice to have before heading off to see Sicily. The hotel is walking distance to restaurants. The location couldn't be better. more

This is by no means a fancy hotel, but if you rate a hotel on service, charm and cleanliness this is tops. Check in is at 2 oclock. We arrived at 8 a.m. tired and hungry after a long 9 hour flight. They invited us in to have breakfast and at 9 a.m. we were in our room. The staff... more

The super positive reviews of this site confound me. This is a two-star hotel at best. Some of the front desk staff were nice and others were very gruff. The elevator is so small you can fit one person with one suitcase. Since I checked in with a group, this led to long delays. The bedroom is OK and I... more

Hotel Joli was better than expected. The location is convenient to the port and very close to the major bus routes. Palermo's bus system is very easy to use. It is on a quiet street with a lovely park across the street. The room was large and very well decorated. We had a nice balcony facing the street. Some face... more

Great price. Great location. Great staff. Great room. Adecuate breakfast. Palermo has as many or more monuments as Rome. Rome has cleaned the monuments for the tourists; Palermo is using the monuments for commercial use: Hotels, apartments, restaurants, etc. So you can share and feel the buildings. Palermo is amazing, sights are stunning, it is just terrific. I could spend... more

Stayed in this hotel for 3 days in April with two friends. Room was on third floor with plenty of space for the three of us. Very interesting lift - room for just one and a suitcase or 3 very close friends!!! If you fancy a walk there are 100 steps - we counted them - usually on the way... more

When we arrived at the Hotel located at a very busy corner in Palermo, we were not offered help with our luggage. Our party consisted of two senior citizens and our adult daughter. We had to go up the stairs to a mezzanine type room from which you could hear heavy car traffic and people loudly talking on the street... more

We enjoyed our stay in this bright, cheerful and slightly "naive" in its design hotel. Rooms are clean and bright. Breakfast is quite basic but still nice. The staff is helpful. Close to the main attractions. We would not hesitate to stay there again! more
