Frommer's Review

Even though it was completely restored in 2005, this nostalgic favorite still exudes much of the aura of the 19th century. It was built for the occasion of the National Exhibition of 1891 when it was called Hotel de la Paix. Many of the Art Nouveau stylings of that elegant era remain, at least in the public rooms with their atmosphere of Palermitan Belle Epoque. The location is in a quiet neighborhood at the northern end of Via Libertà. Bedrooms range from midsize to large and have been completely modernized, with well-equipped private bathrooms with tubs or showers. Many rooms open on a view of the hotel garden. The formal restaurant, where the staff is elegantly uniformed, serves first-rate Sicilian and international dishes.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; laundry service; dry cleaning; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility
