We recently stayed at Cassaro 261. We were visiting Palermo for our 25th wedding anniversary. The room was ok. It looked to be remodeled however, the couch and chair in the sitting room were very soiled. It needed a deep cleaning and we did not sit on either of them. Yikes! The bathroom was gorgeous and totally remodeled. We had no issues with it at all. The problem we had with the room was the bed. This was the hardest bed we have every slept on. It litterally felt like we were sleeping on the floor. No exaggeration. The other thing is the noise. The property is close to all the action but it was so hard to sleep with the constant noise. Even at 3am. First thing in the morning, we heard the horses trotting up and down the street. Between the bed, which was insufferable, and the noise, we got zero sleep. The bed and noise were so bad, that we had to leave the property the next morning and secure a different hotel.If you are looking for a romantic and relaxing B & B, this is not the choice for you.

It is not a hotel, more like a bed/ no breakfast, you are staying in an apartment set up in a mix apartment building. The apartment is share with a couple of rooms. The “living room” when you enter is quite stuffy and didn’t smell great. Room itself is fine, basic but clean. Even tho it does have a garage in the basement but I would not recommend to drive there, or they should have better direction. The area is pedestrian! Very hard to get to the street. Taxi stand is right outside. Location is great. In the middle of the centro storico .

I arrived late, at 8:00 pm, and the taxi dropped me off at the nearest corner on ViaVittorio Emanuele. I had the hardest time finding 261 Via Vittorio Emanuelle: it is an Office Bldg type glass door set back from the street with no sign for Cassaro 261 BB. Luckily I could call Francesca who came down and showed me to the Cassaro 261. It is a set of rooms in a larger Apt, involving several keys. The room was very clean. adequate, and close to everything. Just be aware that it is hard to find! and arrive during the day !!!

Lovely base in Palermo old town

We stayed at Cassaro 261 for 2 nights in the middle of our 2 week tour of Sicily. It was a lovely place to be based in the old town area, just a few minutes walk to most of the sights, plus many restaurants and bars very close by. The apartment itself was very spacious, modern and well presented. Alessandro was also really friendly and helpful, and made us feel very welcome. The main downside with visiting Palermo by car is that much of city, especially old town, has restricted access (ZTL) zones. For tourists this is very challenging to manage, and the information available (or not available) can be very confusing. For this reason, we parked at the long stay car park by the central station and then walked to Cassaro 261, which was about a 15 minute walk.

Perfect Palermo aPartment

We booked this on both location and reviews. Location was perfect, right in the middle of the old town. Upon arrival we found the reception on the third floor but there was no answer. We phoned the number on the confirmation email and spoke to Chiara who was there within minutes. Chiara was exceptionally helpful and gave us lots of useful information on nearby restaurants and bars. The room itself was as described and as pictured. Breakfast consisted of a HUGE croissant, bread rolls, a baked roll with cheese and Parma ham in the middle followed by a choice of eggs and / yoghurt, fresh fruit with coffee and freshly squeezed orange juice. All of which were good. Absolutely no complaints and would recommend.

Check in was around 15pm but we arrived around 10am to leave our bagage, but we were told our room already finished so we can check in earlier, it was such a nice surprise , and they even beought us tea and coffee, snacks etc, we didnt expect so much kindness and generosity, best reception we ever have got. Last day we also ciuld check iut two hours later which gave us time we needed. The hosts are most kind and lovely, my strongest recommendation yet. The location was best, close to everything, good restaurants and best ice cream place in palermo. I would recommend the room we had, it was the room next to the fridge. Only thing I noticed was difficulty getting hot water in shower, that should be checked by hosts, maybe was just my shower. All in all, Strongly recommended, you wont regret it.
