About

La Casa Di Dante Apartment - Palermo

La Casa Di Dante Apartment sits on Via Carrettieri, a short walk from Palermo's historic core. The one-bedroom residence occupies part of a restored palazzo, with a private balcony, air conditioning throughout, and a kitchen equipped for home cooking.

Guests consistently highlight the apartment's central position, the care shown by owner Domenico, and extras like fruit, coffee, and breakfast provisions. The lift stops directly outside the apartment door, a convenience appreciated in an older building.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Limited room choice — The apartment is a single two-bedroom house — suitable for small groups or families, but not a hotel with multiple room types.
  • No pets allowed — Pets cannot stay at the property, which may be a constraint for travellers with animals.
  • Check-in window is narrow — Check-in is only from 15:00 to 20:00, which can be awkward if you arrive late.
  • Away from the immediate tourist core — Although walkable, the apartment is not right next to the cathedral — most landmarks are 700–1700 m away. The nearest major site, Quattro Canti, is 750 m.

“The location is amazing and the hosts incredible. The apartment is clean and stylish with air conditioning in every room. The furniture is fantastic — you feel like royalty. It's peaceful and comfortable, and the host provided fresh fruit, water, coffee, breakfast, and ingredients for a proper Italian pasta. Walking distance to the cathedral and main sights. Highly recommend — thank you, Domenico!”

“The apartment was lovely, with classic Italian decor that felt like stepping into local family life from another era. Spacious and well equipped, with a kitchen for cooking. The location was perfect — a few minutes from the historic center and market — and we enjoyed exploring the neighborhood's restaurants. Hosts Domenico and his wife greeted us with sparkling wine and a fruit plate. Despite the language barrier, communication via Google Translate worked well.”
