About this property
Firriato 2
Located in a late eighteenth-century building with a noble entrance and accommodation for horse carriages of the time, in the heart of what was the ancient "Firriato" of the Prince of Villafranca, our apartment comes to be today In one of the most exclusive areas of the center of Palermo, in an absolutely strategic and neuralgic location. Just five minutes walk or less from the famous Politeama Square and the elegant Liberty and RuggeroVII sites, however, the most chic shops in the whole city, we find ourselves completely at your fingertips all the major lines of public transport, To easily reach the nearby port, but also the airport, Mondello, renowned and lush seaside resort, the other neighborhoods and the nearby and immense old town, home to the most famous and "appalling" street markets (Vucciria, Ballarò and Capo among the Others) and redundant of unique monuments and artistic masterpieces, the result of a secular overlap of many of the most evolved cultures ever, hardly found in other parts of the world. The apartment strives to be in line with all this, refined mix between the charm and the ancient of the ceilings and decorated floors of the epoch and the modern of a neatly elegant decor, intentionally never too intrusive. Renovated by a very small, air-conditioned room with Wi-Fi access, satellite television, fully equipped kitchen and fridge, it is ideal for those who want to spend a relaxing holiday, part of the innumerable Facets of a land so rich in charm and mystery.

Great stay at Firriato! Francesco was easy to communicate with and gave great local recommendations for dinner. The street noise was a little noticeable at night but no big deal. Safe area and walkable to the historical center.
Such a fantastic spot to visit Palermo. Close to the center of town and all the action, but just a few blocks outside to make it quaint and quiet. Franchesco made check-in and out easy and pleasant. I would highly recommend this property.

Aaron, thanks a lot for your words! You already know...Amanda and you, here, will be always welcome!
We stayed here for 3 nights and absolutely loved it! The apartment was spotless, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The host went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect — so kind, responsive, and genuinely helpful. The location was ideal — close to the train station and all the main attractions, yet quiet and peaceful at night. We also really appreciated the elevator for our bags and the Wi-Fi (not the strongest, but definitely a plus!). Overall, a wonderful stay in Palermo — highly recommend!
Beautiful historic place. Location is great if you don’t mind walking a bit, or plan on taking a cab. Neighborhood is nice with lots of delicious dining/snacking options. The host, Francesco was friendly, considerate and welcoming. Overall, a great stay.

Here, you'll be always welcome! Thanks again for everything!
Francesco was highly communicative and helpful. His place was exactly as described and in a great part of Palermo. We were able to walk everywhere. Highly recommended.
I enjoyed my stay at Francesco‘s property very much. It is attractive, spacious, comfortable, and clean. Francesco communicated very clearly and was easy to reach. It’s obvious that he cares about his property and his guests.
The location is in an area that feels very safe, with many restaurants and stores nearby. It is within easy walking distance of many attractions, also.
I highly recommend this property for a comfortable stay!
My wife and I really enjoyed our week in Palermo. Despite souring temperatures the apartment was very comfortable and ideally placed to experience the many and varied experiences of this wonderful city. My only criticism was the kitchen facility was rather small and lacked equipment for anything other than making hot drinks and very simple meals.
Francesco’s apartment is ideally located in a lovely residential area of Palermo, within touching distance of the centro storico, with a supermarket, bars, cafés and restaurants on its doorstep. It is also just 5 minutes on foot from Palermo Lolli train station. His spacious apartment is a beautiful blend of original features and modern touches. He is a very gracious host with lots of great recommendations and his communication is excellent. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Palermo. Grazie mille, Francesco!

Grazie Maria! E tu e tuo figlio siete stati proprio quel tipo di ospiti che uno vorrebbe sempre ricevere e conoscere. Spero proprio di rivedervi! Buona estate!
Tornare a Palermo è sempre una scoperta, non si finisce mai di visitare luoghi amati e di scoprire novità e l'appartamento amorevolmente curato da Francesco Chiariello si è rivelato il luogo ideale, vicino a musei, chiese, oratori e palazzi ma fuori dalla bolgia turistica, servitissimo, elegante, accogliente, ci ha fatto sentire subito a casa nostra, come se questa volta Palermo ci attendesse. Un pezzo di liberty con tutti i servizi necessari del presente, silenziosa, immersa nel verde di un albero di fico benché affacciata su una strada molto vissuta, questa casetta spero proprio di rivederla con il mio compagno, ne avevamo bisogno.
