Holiday rentals in Palermo

Palermo, Sicily, is a rare gem of a destination with a distinct, tangible atmosphere. The alleys and side streets bustle with an extensive market that retains much of its Arabic influence. You’ll find everything from spices and fabrics to antiques and local craft. Haggling is the norm, so don’t be afraid to make an offer. A host of impressive historic sites mean there is plenty to see, in particular the breathtaking Palazzo dei Mormanni, a magnificent 12th century castle, or the colourful Stanze al Genio Museum. La Kalsa, an area overlooking the bay, is a lovely place to eat, relax and listen to music. Palermo apartments from HouseTrip are convenient, stylish and very reasonably priced to give you a great base for your holiday.
