This place is great except for curb appeal of the building it is in! It looks run down and not appealing first impression. But once you go inside it’s very nice and better than many hotels in the area and entire Italy frankly! Friendly helpful staff, close proximity to temples, good eateries downstairs and FREE parking makes this a great B&B for those driving travelers to the area.

Fantastic stay!
We have just stayed here for 3 nights and what a pleasant stay! Right from the beginning the hosts were extremely accomadating, from getting in touch with us a few days before to explain the after hours check in process to outlining some personal recommendations and providing a detailed map. Breakfast was wonderful with each day having at least one new little thing to try (The almond milk and Cannoli were a favourite) Overall cleanliness was very good and the little terrace you get was charming. Location is fantastic, a stones throw from the centre. It can be a little noisy in the evening but to be expected given the location....the earplugs provided came in handy ha! Thank you for a wonderful stay and a providing a lovely base for visiting a superd city

Overall Good Stay
We appreciate how quickly the staff reaponded. It was nice to have a breakfast provided. The furniture has pretty motifs. The bed was hard and the shower was tiny and narrow. The AC took some time to build up to a comfortable temperature.

Such a homey little place! Sadly we got in late so didn’t have a ton of time to enjoy. The ladies helping out with breakfast were so so sweet! They actually serve you breakfast and explain the food they are serving. You can tell they take such pride in the b&b. We felt so welcomed and wish we could have stayed longer! Cute towels too :)

Cannot fault Stupor Mundi B&B. Everything was just wonderful. Fredrica and the team couldn't do enough for us. The breakfast was delicious, the rooms were spotless and attention to detail was second to none. Location is perfect. My partner and I will definitely be returning in the future.

What a fantastic bnb! Excellent location and comfy rooms. Federica prepared a delicious breakfast each morning, with individual touches each day. When we arrived she took the time to draw on a map to show us where things are and give us her recommendations. What a great host, we would love to come back.

Quaint Place but Unreliable
The B and B itself was clean and the room was fine for our needs. Just know if you stay here it will be a small quaint experience. There were good and bad things about that. The good- the employees were nice and cooked a great made to order breakfast, top notch. The bad- they were not as willing to make reservations for dinners and they did not run a front desk for last minute questions or help. The worst offense was their inability to accurately book a taxi for our 5:00 AM departure. We were waiting at the curb at 5:00 and our taxi didn't show. My husband had to turn on his cell service (which we purposely didn't do for the trip, causing us an extra charge) to call the 24 hr number only to find out the B and B didn't confirm the taxi. If you are fine with an experience basically like Air B and B then this is for you. If you book an actual B and B for the help then look elsewhere. They cannot be trusted to follow through on their commitments. Also the street was loud and they acknowledge that by giving you ear plugs.

Great value, very close to old center
We enjoyed our stay at Stupor Mundi. The hotel is situated nearby bars and restaurants as well as shopping. The staff is very welcoming. They gave us great tips for our stay in Palermo and throughout Sicily. The room is comfortable and spacious, a bit noisy, but considering we're downtown Palermo, I guess it's expected! They even provide earplugs for our convenience! The prices are very reasonable, and you get a fantastic breakfast to boost! Highly recommended!

Danilo, Carmen, and Angela do everything possible to help guests enjoy the city and the hotel. Danilo loves sharing his joy in Sicily and its culture with his guests, and every morning would help us plan out what we should see and where we might have dinner. Even the breakfasts were windows into Sicilian culture with delicious Sicilian pastry creations as well as a selection of other food. Each room is comfortable with a nice balcony overlooking the street. And there are shelves of books on Sicily if you want to learn more about it. They have really thought of everything to make a visit to Palermo enjoyable. We arrived at 8 am from the ferry, and even though that was early, they welcomed us and got our room ready quickly. Finally, I'd like to mention Angela's food and towel origami. In our room, our fresh towels might be folded to look like an alligator on our bed. On our breakfast plate, we might find a banana cut to look like an octopus. They were always delightfully surprising and a testimony to how much love and care the owners put into this lovely BB.
