Never again. Not worth the price
The place is not up to standard. Very old building with little maintenance. Electrical fittings are old and don't inspire confidence. No wardrobe or mini fridge, the paint on the wall needs a new coat and the curtains need replacing. The air condition unit looks like 15 years old. I switched it off after 2 minutes as it was letting off a bad smell. No luggage store that can be locked. Only thing in good/almost new condition is the en suite bathroom. Common areas are cluttered with old stuff. Thanked my stars I was there for just 1 night. Otherwise I would have looked for another place.

Very friendly check in person who we also saw out that night and talked to. She was very welcoming when we arrived,booked an airport transfer for us and recommended places to go that night for a meal. The breakfast venue was also very good. Other points - check which room you book as the room on the photo of the B&B is not necessarily the one you have booked - you can upgrade at additional cost!! Room spacious - shower needs looking at as the head leaks.

Something different
What a lovely b&b! Full of character and run by kind and friendly people. Shame they don’t do breakfast on site as the cafe staff were cold and unfriendly. Would recommend it if you are bored of bland budget hotels!

I want to say thank you, the Abalì Gran Sultanato B&B is a great place to stay if you are looking for something different to the normal hotels. The services is very personal and interior design is unique. Breakfast is served at a cafe across the road with a selection of coffee and Italian sweets for breakfast. Bed is comfortable and clean Bathroom is clean and tidy with good water pressure. Wifi - had intermittent issues and needs addressing. Location is excellent - right in the middle of town with easy access to everything. Overall a great experience!

Stay with the sultan of palermo!
Abalì Gran is on the 5th floor of a large apartment block which we were not expecting. Signage wasn’t great but Vito was on the phone giving us instructions. When we arrived upstairs, he greeted us in fine sultan style with coat and hat! To be honest I think that my partner and I thought that we had arrived at the mad hatters tea party! It was fun. Vito spoke good English and made us feel at ease. We were shown to our room and left to settle in. We only stayed one night but can happily report clean room, comfortable bed (we like firm mattresses) and the bathroom worked as it should. If you like quirky, this is definitely the place to stay! Vito will look after you well. He can also recommend reputable 24hour car parks which are nearby.

This place is such fun, and Vito is the perfect host. I was in the Pink Room and its perfect for the solo traveller, the bed really comfortable and a good sized en suite - great to have the balcony on the street view too. Its so central, so perfect for a city break, and surrounded by great food and markets.
