About

La Vucciria Di Guttuso Hotel - Palermo

La Vucciria Di Guttuso Hotel - Palermo is a small bed and breakfast occupying a historic building on Piazzetta Appalto, just off the bustling Via Roma. With only six rooms, the atmosphere is intimate and personal, favored by travelers who want to wake up in the middle of Palermo's vibrant street life. The cathedral is a 14-minute walk away, and the famous Vucciria market is practically around the corner.

Guest rooms are simple but well-equipped, with air conditioning, minibars, coffee machines, and flat-screen TVs. Many rooms open onto balconies with landscape views over the surrounding rooftops. The property also features a shared terrace with a dining table—a quiet spot for breakfast or an evening drink above the city noise.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable central location — The B&B sits right in Palermo's old town, a 14-minute walk from the cathedral and literally steps from the Vucciria market and the nightlife around the corner.
  • Rooms with views and balconies — Most rooms include a balcony with landscape views over the city, letting you enjoy the atmosphere from above.
  • Comfortable, well-equipped rooms — Guests consistently mention comfortable beds, spacious bathrooms (many with rainfall showers), and effective air conditioning.
  • Friendly, helpful staff — The team is described as amiable and supportive, making check-in easy and helping guests settle in.
–

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Shared bathrooms in some rooms — Several room types (and some guest experiences) involve a shared bathroom rather than private facilities—fine if you're flexible, but worth booking deliberately.
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 18:00, which can be tight if your travel plans are delayed. The property does not appear to offer 24-hour reception.
  • Very small property — With only six rooms, the B&B can feel cramped or lacking in public spaces beyond the terrace—and availability may be limited.
  • Basic accommodation — The rooms are clean and functional but not luxurious; some guests found them 'basic but nice and neat.'

“The beds were comfortable and the central heating kept us warm. The room came with a personal safe and pay TV at no extra cost. The spacious bathroom with a bathtub and good drainage was a highlight. The location couldn't be better—right next to the old town and local markets.”

“Breakfast at the cafe offered plenty of choices. I booked a hearing-accessible room with a shared bathroom and a balcony, and that's exactly what I got. The hotel is very central, close to the centre, the old town, and the heart of Palermo.”
