The Local Area

Palermo is situated in the north of Sicily in a wide bay underneath Monte Pellegrino (660m). Since its foundation under the Phoenicians, the city of Palermo has witnessed an astonishing number of civilisations come and go, each having left its own individual mark.

It is therefore unsurprising that Sicily’s capital features a wide range of historical points of interest such as the impressive cathedral, Palace of the Normans, grand neoclassical Massimo theatre, Politeama Piazza and theatre and Pretoria Square, which can be accessed from the hotel either by guided tour, on foot, by taxi or by bus.

Alongside its historical charm, Palermo also has a wide range of restaurants, café bars, shops, markets and Mondello beach (13km from the hotel).

Huw's View

This ancient mansion was owned originally by Princess Lucrezia Brunaccini and has been carefully renovated to create a small contemporary hotel with elegant suites and modern comforts as well as original features.

Palazzo Brunaccini is ideally situated for those who want to explore the Sicilian capital, visit the impressive Norman and Baroque buildings, cathedral and theatres, sample different restaurants and immerse themselves in Sicilian culture.

With so much to do in the city, along with the knowledgeable hotel staff who can point you in the right direction, Palazzo Brunaccini would be a great choice for couples and families alike to experience Palermo.
