The hotel was super close to the train and bus station, so this was a great spot to stay for day trips outside of Palermo. There was an elevator and the building was very secure. The hotel was very quiet and the staff very nice. I stayed here one night but would have easily stayed here multiple ones if I was in this part of the city longer.

Absolutely loved this hotel. Though it was kind of like a college dorm where our shower and bathroom was outside the room, it just added to the experience! Everything is clean and well maintained. The lady at the desk is very helpful and if you need help with anything, she’ll take care of it. It was quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend!!!

I was lucky to have the nicest room in the hotel with a big balcony. It's the most classic place I've seen in a long time and the cleanest. Maria is kind, caring and always cleaning. She is the best. I can't wait to return to Palermo and this hotel. The elevator is an amazing museum piece that works perfectly.

A slightly quirky hotel, but top notch all the same. Breakfast is served in your room on a \"hostess trolley\", and arrived spot on the time I asked for it. Hotel is on fifth floor but has a lift, however just be aware some rooms are up another floor, via a narrow staircase. I was expecting a small pokey room, but instead it was a tardis with huge space, spotlessly clean (and serviced each day, no questions asked), clean comfy bed, excellent en suite shower/toilet room, good shutters on windows meant virtually no noise disturbance, giant TV & good WiFi connection. But most of all the lady owner/front of house was a gem, despite the language barrier always helpful, accomodating and let me leave my bags for a full day as I was leaving on an overnight train.

I had a great stay at Albergo Cavour. The hotel looked exactly like the photos—while it’s not the most modern place, it’s very clean and has that Italian vibe that adds to the experience. It’s within walking distance to the main city centre and most tourist spots, which made exploring really convenient. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, and both check-in and check-out were super easy. Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for something authentic and well-located!

Welcoming B&B close to train station

A pleasant and welcoming B&B that's as close to the train station as you can get. Our room was generously sized and was very clean. Breakfast was delivered after submitting an order the night before, which was an interesting twist after the recent continental breakfasts we had been having till then. The host is lovely and kind.

The area around the station is a bit scuzzy so do make sure you're aware of the directions and surroundings. The stairs to our room were *very* narrow so definitely make sure you're not bringing heavy or bulky luggage. The shower cubicle is small, but this is Europe!

Great Location and Friendly Service

We had a great stay in this family-run hotel. The service is excellent and you get very helpful tips. Usually areas close to stations are neither the cleanest nor the safest, but it is different here. Ideally located at the central station, at the entrance to the historic centre and also close to the old harbour. Breakfast is brought to the room, coffee and various types of croissants were of good quality, as you would expect in Italy. I can only recommend this friendly place.

Sicilian hospitality at its best.

How lovely to be in a small, family-run business and not a chain. I really felt that I was in Sicily and getting glimpses of family life.
It is so near to Palermo Centrale station that as a couple that don't fly but travel everywhere from England by train it was the perfect find.
Although on the fifth floor there is an ancient lift that transports one to reception and a smiling Maria who, no matter what time of day or night, seems there to check one in.
We'd asked for a quiet room and that's exactly what we got with a glimpse of the sea. It was huge with comfortable bed, desk, chairs and wardrobe. The bathroom was spacious too with large shower space and hot, hot water.
The whole B&B is absolutely spotless and, if one pops back, at any time one sees the family working so hard to make ones stay perfect.
Breakfast of cornetti and coffee was delivered to our room at a time we specified.
If one turns left out of the front door and left again on the main street one can walk down to the Botanical Gardens and the sea. Turn right on the main road and right again a little further up than opposite the station and one is in a fantastic street market and then further on into the old town.
We ate both nights at 'Trattoria Trapani' near the station and had very good meals. It only opens from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m. and the owner is charming.
I would thoroughly recommend staying at Albergo Cavour for a slice of Sicilian hospitality.

Great location - spotlessly clean!

This was a great stay! The Cavour is just one minute from the train station and so not only well-placed for public transport, but within walking distance of most of the sights of Palermo. The room was spotlessly clean (and serviced every day), which I greatly appreciated. The bathroom was fine, with a clean and powerful overhead shower. I paid extra for the breakfast, which was very good value. The family are really friendly and welcoming, without crowding you, and there was no problem with communication. I definitely recommend it!

Bit of a muddle getting into accommodation you def need a sat nav to drive in Palermo and nerves of steel ! That aside the accommodation was sign posted when near. We didn't know that piano means floor so the bell says name of B&B piano 5 ! which wasn't helped by the woman on reception not really talking ! we said who we were , she buzzed and got in however not knowing that piano meant floor were not aware that we needed to go to the 5th floor ! We then booked in hoping car would be ok the area in the dark didn't look to great ! Booked breakfast for 10.00 got the thumbs up . Room was nice however any noises outside did tend to echo so when others were being woken up ( banging on the door ) we were also woken from 06.30 !! Also our breakfast was delivered at 08.00 ! getting out of the parking space is also challenging try to park end of road however if you are staying for a while you'll find parking anywhere in Palermo like the driving will be an experience

Definitely is worth the money

Albergo Cavour is located on the 6th floor of an apartment building.
Pros:
- Great location just a block away from the train station and very close to the major Palermo attractions
- Quiet
- High ceiling
- Balcony (tiny)
- Typical Italian breakfast, fresh and always promptly brought to your room at the time you request the day before
- Unbelievably friendly and warm staff always willing to help and accommodate your needs even before you are aware of them
Cons:
- Soundproof is almost non-existent
- The room length, width and height are all of approximately the same size
- The beds were not comfortable:
- the pillows were flat and thin
- there’s some sort of a plastic mattress cover underneath the sheets (to prevent body fluid leakages?), which makes the already uncomfortable mattress make annoying sounds with your every move
However, the friendliness of the staff makes up for all the little deficiencies listed here, and we would happily stay there again if we ever come back to Palermo.

Not recommended

First the good things: clean room and breakfast in room (due to COVID).

Now what should be corrected/amended by the hotel to improve the customer experience. They don't send any pre-stay emails informing guests at all about their rules/conditions (how can we know if they don't inform us beforehand??). In all websites they say they offer parking (paying parking, not free), but that's not correct. We arrived at night (23:00) due to a problem we had with the car and Palermo is not an easy city to drive in or find parking spots. We called them to ask about our parking and the woman on the phone didn't help much, she said they didn't have parking and that she doesn't know where we can park. I asked about ZTL (zona tráfico limitata) as you can get fined if you drive the car into the hotel streets without a permission and other hotels in Palermo have always helped us with the ZTL permission. They didn't help with this either.

Luckily we found a parking spot 5 minutes away from the hotel and we walked there. When we arrived no smiles, no nice faces. I asked and they said that their paying parking lot closes at 20:00 and it was 23:00 (they never informed us before) that their ZTL permission is expired and only lasts 6 months, which is weird because again all B&Bs we stayed in Palermo have always helped with that.

I wouldn't recommend this place to stay. There are many places to stay at this price in Palermo and you will get welcomed with a smile and good assistance.

駅から近いですが、建物の5,6階にあるため外の騒がしさは殆どなく静かでしたが、ご家族で経営されているホテルのようで賑やかな声が響くことも時折あり、イタリアらしいなあと感じました。
朝食は甘いクロワッサン、飲み物、ヨーグルトを各々数種類から選べ、前日に内容と時間を指定して朝に部屋に届けて貰えるシステムです。
甘いもの好きなため、とても美味しく頂きました。
