Palazzo Natoli Boutique Hotel
Endroit à proximité de tout et personnel très courtois. La chambre était propre, spacieuse et le lit très confortable. Excellent petit déjeuner qu’il faut commander à l’avance ce qui fait moins de gaspillage alimentaire. Je vous le recommande!

Room was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast delivered to our door was a nice touch, and it was hot and tasty. Unfortunately the smart TV wasn’t working properly but that’s very minor. The drive to parking was VERY tight but we made it. You’ll keep fit with the stairs but you’ll not beat the location ...
