The building was absolutely beautiful and filled with history. Not to mention the view from the room and from the rooftop. The rooftop was great very intimate and spacious. Federica at the reception was so nice and welcoming. She gave me a lot of very good recommendations!

This place was seriously the BEST place I have stayed while travelling. Everything was totally bellisimo!! The kindness and helpfulness of the hosts was exceptional and the location was like a picture perfect fairytale. My room looked out over the most beautiful square I have ever seen. In the heart of all the action. Romance abounds in this town and the accomodation only compliments the romance. I could not fault this place at any level. If I could give higher then 10 I would. Totally perfect. Comes with the highest of recommendations. Thankyou for what I believe, will be the highlight of my 4 weeks in Italy.
Was a bit hard to sleep in due to the motions of the morning outside but this is totally out of the hands of the accommodation. Who wants to sleep in in this town anyway!!!

La vue depuis la chambre est juste magique! La chambre était très propre et avait tout le nécessaire, le lit était d'ailleurs plus grand que ce que montre les photos. Le personnel était très chaleureux et souriant ce qui m'a tout de suite mis à l'aise. L'emplacement est proche de la gare, de la mer et de l'avenue principale. Voyageant seule, ma sécurité est l'un de mes critères principaux.
Je n'ai pas mis 10 à cause du bruit. J'avais été prévenue, mais c'est vrai qu'on entend le bruit extérieur comme si on y était. Et le matin, à 6h, le bruit du ramassage des bouteilles en verre n'est pas le meilleur des réveils...

It is one of a kind experience to stay in the heart of historical center of Cefalù, facing right to the Cathedral and the Cross on the rocca when stepping out to our balconies.
The room is spacious and curated in details, and spotless clean. The breakfast is rich and lovely.
The host is very helpful and welcoming. Obviously she works with great passion and 100% efforts. Thumb up for her dedication and determination of running a first class B&B in the historical center of Cefalù!

Villelmi is right at the heart of the town overlooking the Duomo. It’s a bit of a trek from the car park but we expected that. There is a stunning terrace for breakfast, though if we had had to have breakfast inside it would have been uncomfortably cramped. We had the triple room which has exceptional views and a beautiful ceiling.

The staff is very lovely. The location is perfect and the rooftop is gorgeous.
There’s so much room for improvement. Simple details like a small rug on the floor considering it’s mosaic or enough lighting in the room could do a lot for the place. It was just so cold and unwelcoming. Then the cleaning was not good at all. I had to remove a few hairs from the floor and the shower. Towels had a few stains on. On top of that, the place is really starting to show its age. Windows are not sound proof at all, feels like I’m sleeping outside. Definitely not enough sockets. Plus if you are hoping to get your bags stored after checkout or if you need a taxi there’s not even anyone to talk to, so that won’t be possible.

Perfect location, beautiful view from the rooftop and very nice staff
The room was poorly equipped and the mattress of poor quality. For me it is not at the level of a 3 star hotel
5.0
The location is great and the staff helpful and friendly. very basic rooms but pleasant and cheap.
no working air conditioning in the room. obviously this made the stay incredibly uncomfortable and resulted in a sleepless night. this should have been notified to me in advance with an alternative offer if you advertising the room with air con. The breakfast and coffee is not good, no fresh fruit available.

I liked how central this property was, it was right across from Cefalu Cathedral and there were many restaurants and beach nearby. I liked that there was daily breakfast included.
I didn’t like how many stairs there were in the property to the room, I did not find that in the property’s description.

The stuff was super friendly at the check-in: they messaged before my arrival and met me personally and helped to carry my luggage (there’s no elevator).
The room for one has a perfect size and a wonderful view! Apart from that, one staircase away there’s a roof top terrace with a stunning view to the Duomo and the sea, with tables and chairs, to see the sun dawn and have breakfast.

Everything was perfect, solo traveler so I booked the single room. Very clean, friendly staff and great breakfast included. I didn't expect to have the best view on the church of Cefalù.
Everything was perfect, just a little noise until the middle of the night as people were partying outside.

Great location - we booked the triple room & got a huge bedroom with bathroom & balcony & a separate single room which had its own balcony also. Very clean, beautifully decorated, fantastic view of the cathedral, square & mountain. The square is buzzing with restaurants & bars yet the room stayed quiet. Great info from our host - good recommendations for places to visit, restaurants, etc. Cefalu centre is pedestrianised so parking is about 15 minutes walk away but it's no problem. Breakfast was lovely & can be taken on the roof which has amazing views of the cathedral on one side & the sea on the other - Amazing!

The room was small but clean and the location was amazing, right in front of the Duomo.the breakfast was delicious, with a lot os variety and the staff was really helpful as well. The rooftop view is amazing.
The room was really not soundproof. There was an event in the Duomo Square and you could hear everything super loud

The terrace was absolutely stunning, had a great view over the central plaza, you can see the cathedral and the sea from the terrace while you're having your breakfast! You can go up there anytime, it is truly a great spot.
Mariagrazia was really helpful and friendly, the room very spacious and comfy, it was just a great stay in Cefalù :)
Nothing, it was all good :)
