What guests think

At Hotel Vecchio Borgo, travelers repeatedly praise the genuinely friendly, helpful staff and central, walkable location near Palermo’s old town, while noting a lively, gritty neighborhood that can be very noisy at night, especially on weekends.

Rooms vary: many are small with very tight showers and dated decor, and street noise is a recurring issue, though some guests reported spacious rooms or balconies and fast Wi‑Fi. Cleanliness is generally acceptable, but worn furnishings and old bedding are mentioned, and expectations of a four‑star standard are sometimes unmet. Breakfast ranges from ample and tasty to limited or average; several reviews also say there is no proper on‑site bar or restaurant, and parking can be tricky. Best for travelers who value friendly service and price over modern style.

Un albergo decadente situato in una posizione poco sicura di Palermo. La sera la musica a tutto volume per le strade fino alle 3 di notte. Il parcheggio a pagamento dell'hotel è un cortile allinterno dei vicoli, poco raccomandabili e difficile da raggiungere con una macchina grande. Giudizio non buono

Hotels.com's description of the hotel does not correspond at all to the actual conditions.How the hotel can be described as 4 stars is a mystery. If I had known the quality in advance, I would definitely have chosen another hotel. In general, the room was very, very tired. Broken teething mugs (of which there was only 1), blankets with holes in them, hard cushions (of which there were only 3) and worn furniture. Furthermore Hotel guests do NOT have access to any roof terrace. There is NO bar or snack bar. That there is a fridge in the reception where you can buy water and sometimes a glass of wine is not a bar/snack bar. The pictures from the breakfast buffet show that there are many different kinds of fresh fruit. That is not the case. There were four half-rotten apples. The only positive was the helpful and friendly staff everywhere, from the receptionists, the cleaning staff and the lady at the breakfast buffet.

Detta hotell är verkligen inget 4-stjärnigt hotell. Badrummet behöver verkligen uppdateras. Är du bredare än 35 cm kommer du inte in i duschen. Matsalen känns daterad. Frukosten ingen höjdare. Detta är möjligtvis ett 3-Stjärngt hotell. Betala lite mer och du hittar ett bättre hotell.

The hotel is near a place where late night outdoor parties are held late in the night. It booming music that is non-stop interspersed with cars with boomboxes trying to compete who is loudest. I sleep thru most noises but this was insane. Windows and shutters shut tight, the complimentary earplugs and the hum of the air conditioner are no use.

We strongly believe that Expedia should no longer be listing this hotel. It is located in a very unpleasant and dirty area, is very shabby and poorly cared for. The room we were given was one of the "01" numbered rooms, that are right next to a very noisy old lift. They said they couldn\'t move us as they were totally full, but later in the evening we started hearing dripping water inside the room from the ceiling (not sure if this was from the air conditioning or from a bathroom on the floor above) and they eventually but reluctantly agreed that the room was unfit and that they would move us to a sister hotel (The Garibaldi) the following morning. The Garibaldi was fine, but the Vecchio Borgo is not of the quality one expects to find listed on Expedia
