The Hotel Ucciardhome combines historic charm and modern style in a central location within walking distance of many attractions, shops, and restaurants. There are antique stone arches in the lobby, brickwork in the rooms, and minimalist yet modern design in the inviting rooms. Lovely tile floors and contemporary furniture decorate the rooms, but the bathrooms -- which huge walk-in showers and rainfall showerheads -- are the standout feature. Some rooms also have skylights and balconies. The property is pet-friendly (only small pets allowed) and there is free Wi-Fi, but only in public areas. A free breakfast receives good reviews and the free indoor parking is great for downtown. However, some feel uncomfortable that the hotel is located across the street from a prison.

The Massimo Plaza Hotel is a cozy and intimate property with a wonderful downtown location across the street from Teatro Massimo and within walking distance of attractions, restaurants, and public transportation.

Villa Bonocore Maletto is a modernized, historic mansion located in a quiet residential area about a 30-minute drive from Palermo. A few restaurants are within walking distance and a couple of attractions are under a 10-minute drive away, but a rental car is necessary to get around. Many guests choose this hotel for the marvelous outdoor pool, contemporary full-service spa, and gorgeous gardens. Rooms are large but mostly plain, and not as upscale as the remainder of the hotel. But they do have high ceilings and modern bathrooms with heated towel racks and rainfall showerheads. There is a chapel on-site and nice freebies including Wi-Fi, breakfast, and parking. The hotel is pet-friendly, and has room and concierge services; however, room service has limited hours.

Arguably the best value hotel in Palermo, Alma Hotel emits a bed-and-breakfast vibe, given its location on the fourth floor of a converted office building and extraordinarily welcoming hosts, Paolo and Antonella. Its location is perfect for exploring most of Palermo's top sights on foot, while others are just a short bus ride away. Guests who don't mind minimalist rooms will be happy here: Although small by American standards, the seven rooms are comfortable, spotlessly clean, and equipped with modern amenities. Additionally, one major perk of staying here is Antonella's freshly baked cakes and cannoli at (the free) breakfast -- after all, it's not a trip to Italy without a few pastries. Travelers looking for a few more on-site amenities may enjoy Quintocanto Hotel & Spa.

One of the main draws of the 104-room upscale Eurostars Centrale Palace is its impressive 18th-century Palazzo setting, and many of the hotel’s public areas are Baroque and spectacular. However, guest room quality varies and while Superior Rooms are stylish, Classic Rooms show some wear-and-tear. This hotel is central to most major Palermo historic sights and the on-site Ai Tetti restaurant and bar has spectacular views across Palermo. Guests looking for more contemporary rooms may want to try Palco Rooms & Suites in the city’s Castellammare neighborhood, at a similar price point.
