WARNING:
- TOURIST TAX € 1,50 per person per night. Tax is due for the first 4 consecutive nights. The tax shall be paid cash on arrival.
- Anyone who is planning to drive in Palermo's historic centre needs to be aware of Restricted Traffic Areas, or Zona Traffico Limitato in Italian, abbreviated to ZTL. The old town centre has set up these limited traffic zones in order to reduce congestion and pollution, and there are significant fines for driving into one of these zones unauthorized.
No cars without permits can be allowed in this area. So, If you are planning on driving in the historic center of Palermo, make sure you inform me about that, so I can tell you where to take your 5-euros daily entrance ticket and how to activate it in order to get in the city centre without getting fined.

Wonderful!

Great accommodation in the perfect location
This was my first stop on a month long trip to Europe and it definitely set a high bar. As a host, Chiara was easy to correspond with, she was able to arrange a taxi for both our arrival and departure as well as provide great recommendations on places to eat and things to do. We arrived late on a Saturday night (9:30 pm) and Chiara was there to personally greet us. She took the time to show us a map of Palermo and provide a ton of recommendations. She even left us some great pastries in the fridge as well as a cold bottle of water.
I loved the location of the property. It was in easy walking distance to all the major tourist sites - only small downfall was the noise from the back alley. She has some pretty noisy neighbors. Oh, and don't be surprised by all the scooters zooming past at 2 am in the morning.
The accommodation itself was comfortable and exactly as pictured. It has everything you need for a short stay. The bed in the master room is comfortable. The showers are a bit small, but that is to be expected from Italy. We had no issues using the washing machine and the dishwasher was a great benefit too.
The sofa couch I think has seen better days and is starting to show some wear and tear, but still very comfortable and I feel asleep on it several times, so no complaints on comfortability.
All in all, I would highly recommend this place to friends and family and if I was ever to come back to Palermo, this would be my go to spot!
Wonderful apartment, great location and most helpful, welcoming owner
I can't say enough about our stay at Xirba. We felt at home immediately. The location is perfect and Chiara ha wobderful, welcoming and so helpful. We felt like residents, not tourists while staying in Chiara's beautiful apartment. Chiara helped us with lost luggage which eased our minds so we could enjoy our first day without worry. Absolute wonderful choice in Palermo. Everything close by, awesome apartment, clean and spacious but most of all wonderful hostess Chiara even arranged transport to and from airport. I can't say enough about the experience at Xirba!
Great stay in Palermo
Chiara was a very gracious host.
The apartment is beautifully presented and centrally located to the sights of Palermo. Chiara's restaurant recommendations were spot on.
This is a great place to stay and fully recommended.
Simply the best
Chiara is a jewel. Very helpful and available for questions. The apartment is clean, tastefully furnished and convenient to everything. We had a wonderful, wonderful time.
Palermo was beautiful and the apartment was perfect.
We loved the apartment. It was centrally located. If was fun staying in one of the quarters. The apartment was roomy. The kitchen was well appointed. We had a problem with the water heater. There is a switch in the kitchen that controls the water heater and accidentally got switched off. Chiara was great and gave us great information on what to do and see. She even recommended a great wine store. I would definitely recommend staying with Chiara.
Great apartment, fantastic location!
This is a great apartment. Very clean, fantastic location in one of the old quarters of Palermo. Chiara was a wonderful host, very helpful with some great suggestions of things to do. The showers aren't great, but they do the job. Would still definitely recommend this place.
