10/10 Excellent

The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The hotel is cleaner than many 4 and 5 stars. Location is convinient too. Thank you.
Mario, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

I liked the stay mostly because of the staff and the breakfast. My room was pretty old and not in that good of a condition. It wasn’t that clean. However, the people were nice and the surrounding area was great too.
Paras, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great small hotel very close to the city center of Palermo situated in a quiet street. Nice room and very good italian breakfast with excellent coffee. Friendy staff
Eric Jan, 5-night trip

6/10 Okay

1) If you are driving, pick a property outside of Palermo City, proper. The streets are extremely, narrow, unsafe and drivers don't appear to follow international driving rules and laws. 2) The GPS doesn't work reliably in town center. 3) The staff at Hotel Columbia were not very helpful and eager to assist. 4) There is not elevator in the hotel!
Bobby, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Lousy breakfast and the breakfast host made you feel uncomfortable if you went for a second cup of coffee
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Right where you want to be, location wise. Bed was comfy. The whole place needs some work, but they are doing it! The problem is that they start at 630 am and continue till 6 at night. Staff was great. I'm sure this place will be top notch when they're done with the construction
Samuel, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great location

Next to the interesting places of the city, 15 minutes walk from railway station. Nice room, limited shampoo. Friendly people willing to help you. No elevator but because I had problem walking stairs they change my room to first floor. Breakfast with a big variety of sweets.

The room was clean, basic but comfortable . The staff was kind, helpful and responsive The location is perfect for exploring the historic center of Palermo.
Lorelei, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Simple, clean hotel in a great location; all the major sites and transportation are within walking distance. The staff were very welcoming and kind. Good wifi and decent breakfast.
Summer, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Property was good value for money and right in the centre. It is a bit dated and shower is a bit small but good for a few nights sleep. Breakfast is a bonus but not the freshest selection.
Diane, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Other than a fair price I would look to updated rooms .
Paul, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location. Breakfast less than average
Marsha, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Really close to the centre with spacious room, comfortable bed and helpful staff. Some work going on, it doesn’t cause disruption, but means you enter through the side rather than the main entrance.
Michael, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The concierges were so friendly and helpful, the bedding and towels were clean. The location is excellent. There were some small ants and a little mold in the bathroom but for the price and the length of stay it was perfect.
Elizabeth, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Plus: excellent location. Good value for money. Plenty of hot water. Good size room with nice view. Historical building with high ceilings. Comfortable bed. This place has potential. Minus: staff not very helpful ...a bit of a sicilian version of Fawlty Towers. The shower was full of mould and the toilet seat was broken. Squeaky bed...not great for a romantic weekend.
Roberta, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

Ok

Plenty of food for the breakfast; perfect location in the heart of the Old Town
Wieslaw, 3-night trip

8/10 Good

It was perfectly fine for a budget hotel. The staff was nice and helpful. Just wish there was more hangers in my closet
Thavis, 7-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Nothing to like about going up the stairs to a 3rd floor room. When I ask for a first or 2nd floor room as I had knee surgery.
Carmen, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Excellent location, just off Via Maqueda. Everything is walkable in Palermo. Lots of great bars and restaurants nearby. Our room was basic but clean - aircon good but a bit noisy. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very basic - meat, cheese, tomato and lots of sweet pastries. Ask for a cappuccino- its much better than the jug thats on the buffet table. We think for the price we paid, the hotel was great- would definitely stsy here again.
connie, 4-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Very old, needs updating Bathroom toilet wasnt working and there was a foul smell coming from the washroom Tight shower hard to take a proper shower for taller folk Bathroom had bugs on the floor, towels were stained, walls are paper thin i heard people walking above me very clearly. I broight my complaints to the staff and was basically blown off. I ended ip staying somewhere else and was glad i did.
Michael, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Air conditioner did not work. Refridgerator dirty and did not work. No elevator. Staff not helpful. Breakfast very limited. To sum it up. I would recommend to anyone ever! Would not offer refund. Still working on that.
Lawrence, 5-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Air Conditioner was very loud and noisy, making it very difficult to sleep. Bathroom sink and shower both were backing up with water, very difficult to brush teeth and take a shower. When asking for a room change they would accommodate us nor provide any compensation. The location of the hotel is difficult to find.
Kathy, 2-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Not worthy of review

Hotel was totally falsely advertised A total shambles .. no lift to to help with luggage .. one has to self haul up steep rounding stair, Air conditioning not work not working , , nothing taught out for the guest …. Totally disappointed
Eileen, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

The hotel itself is in a super location. You can get anywhere and you’re right on Via Machere which is one of the most vibrant main roads in Palermo. It is near Fontana Pretoria and I 4 canti, which are historical points. I gave a low score because air con was not working in full summer season and we could barely sleep, when we got moved to a different room air con was working fine but after a while the machine would start making unbearable noises that woke us up and we couldn’t fall back asleep so we had to switch it off. Room was opposite washing machines so early in the morning we would hear not only cleaning ladies loudly chatting in the corridors but also these massive machines doing the washing. Showers were mouldy but functional. If it had not been for the air con and the morning noise I would have scored 5 even if not super clean. I am a Spartan soul so for the price I think the cleanliness was ok. But air con in a very hot part of Italy in full summer is a MUST and it did impact our holiday as we were constantly tired. Other than that it has all you need.
Ilaria, 2-night trip
