“Hotel Plaza Opera's rooftop lounge is a genuine draw, mixing fine dining with striking city views. While some may find the surrounding area less polished, its central location puts guests close to Palermo's key attractions, including the Teatro Massimo. I think the on-site wellness center and family-friendly amenities round out its appeal for diverse travelers.”
