Right in the heart of Palermo, this minimalist apartment blends a sleek design with an unbeatable location. High ceilings, wooden floors and modern furniture create a sophisticated atmosphere, while the large master bedroom is light-filled and serene. There is a further single room, so three people can fit comfortably here. The spacious living area is the perfect place to start and finish the day. In the morning, throw open the balcony doors and enjoy a coffee while sunlight streams in, before you head out to explore.

The apartment is in the historic centre and you are perfectly placed to explore all of Palermo’s delights. The Conservatory Music school is round the corner, and you might hear classical music floating through the window on warm summer evenings. The Teatro Massimo, one of the largest opera houses in Europe, can also be reached in less than ten minutes on foot. Two of Palermo’s most beautiful and storied museums, Palazzo Branciforte Museum and Palazzo Lampedusa, are within a four minute walk. The ancient main port of the city, La Cala, is a six minute walk away. Come evening, enjoy aperitivo and dinner at one of the laidback trattorias and characterful local bars in the area.
