Séjour parfait
Très bon séjour, un accueil parfait, personnel vraiment sympathique, et petit extra tel que les bouteilles d’eau dans le mini bar (inclues) qui font toute la différence. De plus l’hôtel est au cœur du centre historique, très bien situé

Beautiful stay in Palermo
This is a beautiful and modern hotel with extremely friendly staff. They are very personable and make you feel welcome. The breakfast is amazing with so many delicious selections. They even prepared a to-go breakfast for me on one of the mornings I had to leave very early. The location of this hotel is in walking distance to the airport shuttle and the center of town. Very convenient. I stay at this hotel every time I come to Italy. I just love it!

The location is great. Very walkable to old town. The rooms are simple, but comfortable and spotlessly clean. The staff are extremely pleasant. Highly recommend Hotel Alma.

I’ve traveled to 14 countries and I have to say that this hotel had some of the best service ever. From the moment we walked in we were immediately greeted by the team. They took the time to explain to us amenities of the local area including “must see” and dining options. I cant stress enough that this was a great, conveniently located hotel which the best service ever.

Well located with great staff…
Staff super friendly, arranged transfer early on morning of checkout. Room was noisier than anticipated from cars on roads outside which explains the provided ear plugs on the bedside cabinet.
Photo of hotel on website a little misleading but was clean and well located

Great Hotel, Close to Everything you need😎
The hotel is 1 block away from all the action and a 3 minute walk to the bus to the Palermo Airport. If you are going on a Cruise, the hotel is a few blocks away so you can actually walk with your luggage. No need for a taxi

Hotel tres propre et confortable, personnel accueillant et sympathique. Chambre et literie confortables , SDB ok , propre.
Petit dejeuner en quantité suffisante , bon mais sans plus , peut-être un.peu trop industriel dans le choix des produits.
Sinon satisfde mon séjour.
