Bed and Breakfast Il Glicine - Piana dei Colli - Mondello Palermo

8.8

The venue, ambience and hospitality of the villa far exceeded our expecations. The hostess was charming and helpful with useful tips around the area to visit. The rooms were very clean and breakfast each morning was more than plentiful. I wuould definitely go back.

The owner of the property, Gabriella, was warm and gracious. She spoke English which was a big help to us. She offered advice on places to go and things to see in the area. She had an incredible garden and was very knowledgeable about the plants. The property was difficult to find but once there it was a warm and inviting oasis.

It was dificult to find. The bathroom was not in the room. The lady owner was frendly and helpull. There was a free parking and a verey biutifull garden.

Il Glicine is absolutely wonderful. The garden is a slice of heaven, and the apartment full of atmosphere and lovely things, but not at all intimidating. Signora Pucci is charming and helpful, and speaks good English. She directed us to a superb restaurant. Staying at Il Glicine is a great holiday in itself. In fact it's so divine you don't really want to go out and deal with Palermo traffic. I foolishly forgot to take the excellent joining instructions and had a hard time finding the correct place, as there is no sign.

Very friendly and warm-hearted landlady. Loaction is a good starting point for Palermo region (very special...) Generally - accomodation prices on Sicily are far too high (e.g. compared to Tuskany) - so, at the end for Sicily the price is fair. Do not expect continental breakfast! Without a car you will be lost!!!

This is a nice and quiet place with good breakfast. But we must complain about our hostess'es way of treating us. She was a little bit too dominating and treating us a little as if we were children, Her way of tackling our delay from the airport was absolutely not good and she showed little understanding for our difficulties with finding the house(a Canadien couple had spent about 2 hours finding the house even after they had arrived)so the house is indeed not easy to find especially not in the dark. It is also unusual to be advised to be quiet at 9,30 in the morning!!

Il posto è molto bello, le stanze pulite e la csa grande. la padrona di casa è però una esagitata ed è molto nervosa

We were extremely happy with the accomodation which we chose purely based on the reviews in Venere like this. It was easy to find from the directions given, secure parking, beautiful surroundings with a welcoming, helpful and english speaking host. Lovely clean spacious bedroom and bathroom, comfortable bed and a light continental breakfast. The host was extremely friendly and offered fantastic advice on places to visit. Be aware you have to pay by cash on the 2nd day. Take ear plugs if you are a light sleeper as there was a little bit of dog barking background noise - nothing dreadful. The closest beach at Mondello is also the best for miles. Sandy and clean. I would totally recommend this B&B and location. Just be prepared for totally manic italian driving! Enjoy!

The owner is wonderful and the place is full of trees and plants. I don´t know if it is common in every B&Bs, but we had to pay in cash and we didn´t know that.

9.2

The owner was absolutely charming and offered us invaluable advice concerning restaurants and places to see in Palermo (she speaks good French but her English may not be so fluent). The house was very quiet and full of character and the garden was a tropical paradise. However the property was not very easy to find and you did need a car!

8.6

Beautiful property--very relaxing. I would recommend this property to my friends going to Sicily. The directions on your site were extremely poor. Please verify with the property as to accurate directions. Gabriella Pucci was lovely. We enjoyed her very much. She was very helpful and clearly enjoys providing excellent service to guests.

When arriving, there were no boards outside to highlight B&B as in the UK, so was done by picture and entry phone system.The property is very "oldy worldly" with old book, beamed ceilings, little windows etc.........It was always lovely,clean and quiet and a great place to get away to or rest.The pictures of the bedrooms, did not do them justice, as they are lovely and generally have sole use of a bathroom.A car would be a must, but as a avid traveller - managed to get around over my few days stay.Would stay again..........
