About

The Normans Apartments - Palermo

The Normans Apartments sits on Piazza Della Vittoria, a 610-metre walk from Palermo's Cathedral and the Norman Palace. The location puts the city's historic core within easy reach, with the Massimo Theater 1.3 km away. The apartments provide a base for exploring on foot, with a kitchen, sitting area, and soundproofed rooms for quiet evenings.

Guests arrive to a self-contained apartment rather than a traditional hotel. The space includes a flat-screen TV, tea and coffee facilities, and an electric kettle. For longer stays, laundry services and luggage storage are available. The property also offers parking for those driving, a practical advantage in the city centre.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book
  • Prime historic location — A 610-metre walk from Palermo's Cathedral and 710 metres from the Norman Palace, with most landmarks and restaurants within a short stroll.
  • Spacious, well-equipped apartments — Each unit includes a kitchen with cookware, a sitting area, and — in some — a split-level layout. Guests repeatedly mention the space and the fully stocked kitchen.
  • Quiet with a view — Soundproofed rooms and a rare park view (overlooking Parco D'orleans, 710 metres away) feature prominently in guest feedback.
  • Helpful hosts — Reviews consistently praise the hosts' responsiveness and local tips, with several naming Alfredo and Giulia directly.
  • Practical extras — On-site parking, luggage storage, and a paid airport shuttle simplify arrival and departure.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Check-in window is fixed — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:30, so late arrivals need to plan ahead. Check-out is required between 08:00 and 10:00.
  • Reception isn't a standard front desk — This is an apartment property, not a hotel, so there is no 24-hour reception. Guests coordinate directly with hosts.
  • No on-site restaurant or fitness facilities — The apartments focus on self-catering. There is a coffee shop, but no full restaurant, gym, or pool on the premises.
  • Some rooms have twin beds — The Deluxe Apartment has two single beds, which may not suit couples expecting a double or king bed.
