“San Paolo Palace struck me as a mixed experience; while it aims for a polished 4-star feel with its rooftop pool and conference facilities, some elements feel dated. Its location requires more planning to reach Palermo's center, but the free parking is a definite plus if you're exploring Sicily by car, and the views from the upper floors are memorable.”

mixed feelings about my stay

good breakfastunhelpful staffswim cap

the breakfast was quite good with a lot of options available.

The pool required swim caps. I've never seen that before at a holiday pool. also, the hotel staff were not very helpful when i needed information. it reminded me of pulling teeth to get any assistance.
