Our stay at Hotel Principe di Villafranca was good. Checking in and out was a breeze. The staff was both friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included in the stay. We cannot speak on the parking situation as we did not have a rental car. It was a 25 minute walk to the town center and plenty of cafes, restaurants and shops in vicinity

I stayed here for three weeks. The staff upgraded my room to one with a balcony, which is great to have-- but both rooms were very nice. The beds are very comfortable, though I do wish they had black-out curtains. The staff was very helpful in assisting me in finding services I needed to fully enjoy my stay in Palermo. The housekeeping staff was diligent and friendly, greatly enjoyed them. I don't usually eat breakfast at hotels, but I did here. The buffet was simple but had something for everyone: eggs, meat, some lovely sweet treats, and great coffee. Even though it was a buffet, the server was always present and happy to get whatever you wanted. The location is quiet--but very, very close to the historic center. I enjoyed the short walk, and i also enjoyed the proximity to more 'local ' cafés, etc. I would be happy to stay here again.

Comfortable
The hotel room was a great surprise. It was definitely comfortable with really nice beds and linens. There were duvets on the bed. The bathroom was not large but it was fine. And the breakfast offered was fine even though the room was very hot. The only bad thing about the hotel was the €100 taxi ride from the Palermo airport. we walked to one of the squares and enjoyed a nice dinner

This was the worst four-star hotel I've ever been
This was the worst four-star hotel I've ever been to. although the reception was nice, from the outside and the common areas looked good, but the service was terrible, the staff didn't even see us, the breakfast was very poor, but the worst thing was the cleanliness. There was a terrible smell in the room and mold in the shower. This is Deluxe room in 4-star hotel.
