ZisaSuite
The 40 square meters Zisa Suite offers an eclectic blend of modern design and historical elements, combining comfort, technology and beauty. The renovation project was carried out to provide a five-star welcome while valorizing the Arab-Norman style, which creates continuity between the outdoor and indoor spaces. The suite, designed by the very well-known architect Salvo Schiavo, is located just twenty meters away from the entrance of Cantieri Culturali alla Zisa and offers logistical support both to operators, visitors and tourists who wish to stay in the area, where other important attractions stand, as the Zisa Castle, Villino Florio and Villa Malfitano. Moreover, Medical facilities, such as Clinica Demma, Noto Pasqualino and Macchiarella, are located in the same neighborhood.
The suite is decorated with a rich collection of photographs along with many decor items from Morocco, Tunisia, Turkey and United Arab Emirates, being a tribute to the Arab culture, as the handcrafted furnishings are perfectly suited to the needs of guests.
Guests can relax with our selection of books or watch TV (there are two TVs, one in the bedroom and one in the living area). The suite is also equipped with a desk and a printer, to print plane tickets or anything else guests may need during their stay. Bright and airy, the suite is located on the ground floor, facing a wide sidewalk adorned with plants and succulents.

Villino Florio
Immersed in what once was the extensive garden park called Olivuzza, the building was commissioned by the Florio family and served as a “delight pavilion” for the young Vincenzo. It is considered one of the most emblematic examples of Art Nouveau architecture in Palermo, being the result of the brilliant creativity of the famous architect Ernesto Basile.

The historical center is close and easily accessible by scooter in two minutes (the scooter sharing station is thirty meters away) and on foot in six minutes, allowing our guests to reach the main cultural attractions in the city. Through Porta Carini, one of the ancient city gates of Palermo, built in 1310, you will enter the picturesque Capo Market, tucked in behind the Massimo Theatre, which was designed by Giovan Battista Filippo Basile and completed by his son Ernesto in 1897.
From the Theatre, you can walk along the fashionable shopping streets as via Ruggero Settimo and via Libertà or the multi ethnic via Maqueda, which leads to the Four Corners (Quattro Canti) and to Galati and Francavilla Palaces. Strolling through the old Cassaro, you will get to the Cathedral and the Norman Palace, the oldest royal residence in Europe. From Zisa Suite, within a 10-minute walking distance, you can also reach the Capuchin Catacombs, famous for its exposed skeletons and mummified bodies of religious and lay people.
