We stayed with 4 friends at Hotel Elite during a week-end. Arrived at Palermo late Friday night, left Sunday morning. As we arrived by rental car, it was great to have the possibility to keep it for a €12/day in the safety of the hotel´s underground parking. The rooms were clean, well equipped, nicely and cosy decorated, the staff were... more

With just one day and night to explore Palermo, this hotel was the perfect choice. Upon arrival you are greeted by modern frescoes along the stairwell and foyer. The woman at the desk was extremely nice and helpful in giving us a map and telling us the highlights to see. She also recommended a place for lunch that was authentic... more

Hotel is in the centre of the city in a building with several other hotels. You take the lift to the 5th floor to the hotel. Found the female staff very friendly and helpful, but one male staff member wanted to charge us a fortune for a tour because there were not enough people booked for it. We declined.

We spent three nights in Hotel Elite & this was a find indeed. Our room 503 was spacious, so was its bathroom. Every hotel staff was very helpful and polite whenever we asked the info needed. Thanks to the proper advice by hotel staff, we explored around the city every morning as early as 6am. Three markets worth visiting; Vucciria(fish),... more

Above average 3* hotel in a great location. I agree with most of what's been written in the 2 earlier reviews. It has a homely feel once I get off the elevator on the 5th floor. Our triple room, also on the 5th, was quite spacious, and has some sort of a view of the mountains over the roofs of... more

This is essentially a hotel for corporate business travellers and for others with very specific personal interests that draw them to the commercial centre of Palermo. And that is why we selected it - because of its proximity to the Teatro Massimo where we were attending an opera performance (a personal achievement for me - I've been wanting to go... more

Palermo is a wonderful city, but can be quite confusing. The staff was very helpful with directions. The double room, with two beds was large and clean, as was the bath. There were various bus stops nearby, and just a few blocks away was the bus stop to the airport. Just around the corner was some of the best pizza... more

My girlfriend and I stayed here for a combined 6 nights during our travels in Sicily. PROS: Great service and very personal - spend more than one night here and you'll get to know Orsola or one of the may other friendly young staff members. Great location. You're just a block away from all the shopping you'll ever desire. And... more

The Hotel Elite is a fun little hotel. It has a terrific location next to shops and a business district. The bus is at the end of the block. The first impresssion is a little off-putting. You have to figure out how to negotiate the elevator and on which floor you need to get to. The room was very small,... more
