Casa degli affreschi a Palazzo Lungarini by Wonderful Italy

This apartment, located in the historical building of Palazzo Lungarini, is an extraordinary heritage of 17th century architecture, recently renovated respecting its valuable artistic features.

Walking up a marble staircase until the first floor of Palazzo Lungarini, you will reach a loggia with cross vaults where to access our apartment. The entrance gives way to the large and bright living room with a dining area, with its big corner sofa that doubles into a bed for two people, a dining table and a built-in bookcase. The independent kitchen, equipped also with an oven and a kettle, is decorated with tiles comparable with majolicas, typical of the Sicilian tradition.
The real soul of the palace can be perceived entering the majestic bedroom: the astonishing artistic frescoes on the wall and the ceiling, make the room a very noble sleeping area. Two great windows flood the room with light, a bright space equipped with a queen-sized bed, two sofas facing one another and with a lovely coffee table in between, an elegant dresser with a mirror in Rococo style, a wardrobe and a vintage writing desk. The stunning frescoed ceiling is enriched by a glass chandelier that spreads light from the centre of the room. The balcony overlooks Via Lungarini, a typical alley of Kalsa neighbourhood, in the heart of Palermo. The bathroom, decorated with majolica tiles, comes with a bathtub but it is also arranged to be used by those who prefer taking a shower.

Free Wi-Fi and air-conditioning in the living room complete the property.

It doesn’t matter if it’s lunch or snack time, it is strictly required to taste the dishes with your hands only! This tour will also give tourists the opportunity to admire prominent buildings, streets and squares.

The central station is only at 10 minutes walking distance, where you will also find the bus stop for transfers from/to the airport, in addition to those to other sicilian tourist destinations.

Faded Historic grandeur
The apartment is in a historic palazzo with a large courtyard behind huge ancient doors from the street. There is a marble staircase that leads up to the unit. All is rustic & elegant at the same time. The unit is large and the bedroom/ sitting room has a beautiful frescoed ceiling and two large windows that open on to small secant street with another palazzo across. The kitchen & bath are a little rustic but have a shabby chic European charm. It could use a better coffeemaker. We were met by Angelo a charming ,handsome representative from the company right after our arrival in the city. He explained everything & marked a map with all his favorite restaurants & sights. It’s in a very convenient location in walking distance to everything.

Stunning property! Great communication!
The apartment speaks for itself, it has everything you need and is unbelievably beautiful. We also locked our keys in at one point and they had someone on-site in 15 minutes! Location is great, short walk to the four corners and endless restaurants. Will definitely stay again.

Breathtaking stay
Honestly, I wish I stayed for longer. This stay was so amazing, the host was super nice and friendly, helped us out in every possible way. Walking distance away from everything. While it may get a little loud at night, it is something you expect in a city centre. Would definitely recommend!

Nice property with some caveats
The apartment is nice and as advertised. The property management not so much. They are unavailable before 10:00 and after 19:00. The host that met us knew little about the apartment. The answer to every question is check the house manual. They are very interested in selling excursions. Plan on going to the grocery store first. They provide nothing. The street is very noisy until 2:00. If you are a light sleeper this is not for you. Overall the location was great for amenities and getting around Palermo.

The property was amazing but ghe noise from the street and neighbors was horrible. We did not sleep for six nights as the noise went on until 4.00 am. My husband slept on the couch in the living room one night to get caught up on some sleep and said the livinv room would make a better location for the bedroom than where it was located in the front of the bldg. Also the neighbors partied late into the night and early morning in the courtyard on our last night there. By this time, we nad gone five nights without sleep so we were really tired and upset with the noise which made our stay so not enjoyable. We would never stay in this area again no mayyer how beautiful the apartment was.

Great stay!
My husband and I stayed at this property for 3.5 weeks, and it was a fabulous place to stay. This was a working getaway for me, so a strong internet connection was very important for online work & Zoom calls. The internet was flawless! Even when we had a storm the internet was still very strong. The only downside is for a longer term stay there we’re a few things missing… salt & pepper for example, olive oil, washcloths, extra toilet paper, & cleaning supplies. Overall, great stay, and the apartment was located in a convenient location for walking.

Palatial apartment in a great neighborhood
This is a huge generously sized apartment with marble floors and hand-painted rococo original high ceilings. It is part of what seems to be one of the best palazzos on a beautiful residential street in La Kala neighborhoods. There are some minor downsides - a small bathroom , some street noise can be heard on weekends, and the rooms can be dark without lights on, etc. But it's an amazing place to stay!

Très bon emplacement
Le logement est trés bien situé. A 2 minutes à pied de la rue principale de Palerme et des restaurants. Le patio est magnifique et reposant. Nous avons juste regretté la cuisine qui n'est pas adaptée et pratique pour cuisiner puisqu'il n'y a aucun plan de travail ni table il n'est pas possible de cuisiner à part dans l'évier. La propreté était parfaite et l'accueil facilité. Grande réactivité du Mr qui était en charge de notre accueil et qui a pu nous dépanner de piles puisqu'il n'y en avait pas dans la télécommande de la télé. Pas de problème de communication et de différence de langue avec les outils d'aujourd'hui tout est facilité. Bel appartement

Enchantement
A notre arrivée nous avons apprécié la ponctualité de notre hôte pour notre accueil et sa disponibilité. Tout était parfaitement préparé pour notre deuxième séjour. Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce remarquable appartement situé dans ce palais historique. Nous avons eu la chance d’être présent à Palerme durant les célébrations des 400 ans de la fête de Santa Rosalia qui se sont terminées le dimanche soir par une impressionnante procession via Vittorio Emanuele. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir tellement Palerme nous enchante.

Eindrucksvolle Wohnung und sehr gute Lage
Die überaus grosszügigen und herrschaftlichen Räume dieser Wohnung machen es einem leicht, sich in Palermo wohl zu fühlen. Die Wohnung ist gut gelegen: nah beim Zentrum, etwa eine Viertelstunde zu Fuss vom Bahnhof entfernt und in einem lebendigen, tollen Quartier. Der Empfang war sehr freundlich und unterstützend.

Un appartement d’exception
Deuxième séjour à Palerme et premier dans une location. Je ne peux que recommander ce magnifique endroit parfaitement situé (à deux pas du Quattro canti, de la cathédrale et du palais des normands). L’appartement est très propre, bien entretenu, et avec climatisation. J’ai adoré l’architecture des lieux. Deux petits bémols : juste un jeu de clé de disponible, donc nous avons dû nous organiser pour être dans un même timing à l’appartement. Le palais Lungarini est situé dans une zone à stationnement très limité (quartier historique) qui nous a obligé à nous garer près du port. Mais Cela n’a pas été un problème au final, nous nous sommes organisés en conséquence. Je recommande donc vivement cet endroit !
