We recently stayed at Hotel Porta Felicenwhere we discovered it is also a day spa. The front office staff spoke great English and did all our bookings for dinner and taxis as well as helpful advise. The rooms are spacious and very clean and modern. the shower was a bit hot and cold which I mentioned to them. I would... More

The only draw back of this hotel is the location is not quite central, other than that, it has great service, nicely designed clean good sized rooms, you even get a welcome cocktail! More

Great location in Palermo, spacious modern recently renovated rooms, spotlessly clean, great service. Stay here in Palermo, you will not be disappointed. Convenient to ferries, located in picturesque old center of Palermo. Many excellent restaurants nearby. Paolo in the bar is an excellent resource for information. This is a truly outstanding hotel. We got a free room upgrade which helped... More

We recently stayed at Hotel Porta Felice for 3 nights. The rooms were beautiful with the most incredibly comfortable beds! The location was fantastic as everything was within walking distance but away from the traffic noises. The rooftop terrace was a lovely spot for breakfast or an evening beverage. The breakfast was a little on the ordinary side and the... More

When I booked this hotel it was one of the best in Palermo according to reviewers. Well, it is good, but I do not understand the raving reviews. They may be because of the modern interior with nice dark woods, designer ceiling lamp, and wooden floors. Or the nice roof terrace, for breakfast with a view. But besides that the... More

We just returned from our annual trip to Sicily and we do love Palermo and have been many times. We decided to try the Hotel Felice since we had become dissatisfied with the couple of hotels we have previously stayed at...their names will be left out. I must say we were pleasantly surprised with the friendliness of the hotel staff... More

I booked this as somewhere nice and special for our last two nights in Italy after 5 weeks traveling southnfrom Venice. On arriving we were delighted. The hotel looked new (even for australian standards), clean and the man on the front desk was smiling, welcoming, happy and spoke great emglish. The past few days in Sicily we had found tough...

My wife and I spent the weekend here while taking part in a photographic competition. The hotel is first class, well worthy of its star rating, with a health and fitness club in the building. Our room, 108, was very clean and well equipped, with a huge bed and small single bed too, and a balcony overlooking the front street.... More
