Belmonte LR Collection

Room and facilities were great. Clean, modern Italian touch that is a 10 min walk into the centre of Palermo. Great check in information via WhatsApp, especially around the local app for parking. There were reports in previous reviews about safety etc. we never felt unsafe or that the area required caution - it’s a busy Sicilian city, embrace it!

Area around the hotel is still developing, with works ongoing around the apartment location & nearby marina. This is not at the fault of Belmonte LR Collection, once it’s done it will really add to the place.

Clean rooms, responsive staff, good location, safe neighborhood.

We had some confusion about check-in, after a long international flight. Reception desk is not staffed until 10 am, and was not told this ahead of time though I told them we would arrive around 9. May have been a translation issue. After a few minutes of confusion, we were able to be buzzed in and leave our luggage in unattended reception room. Stairwell is DARK unless you hit light switch near 2nd floor entrance. There was no obvious way to turn on light from the ground floor, this is a safety issue. Be ready to use your phone flashlight. Our room had little to no storage for luggage and clothing. Family members in other rooms had a full shelving unit, we had a metal bar with a few hangers.

Everything

Nothing

The location was convenient, and the staff were friendly. The furniture had a luxurious feel, and there was a shared kitchen available. The room also had a small balcony.

Depending on your luck, you may end up with a view of the patio or courtyard rather than the sea. The bathrooms may also not be to everyone’s taste, as they have neither a door nor a ceiling, so it is worth being prepared for that. Also bathrooms with wooden floor :( No breakfast or parking unfortunately.
