I cannot say enough good things about Francesco and his private, view filled apartment. This place has everything including things you wouldn't even imagine. Your every wish is catered for, right down to magnifying mirror for women and the most amazing shower and a spa bath. It has two roof top terraces with stunning views of all of Palermo. The... More

Sympatico. Francesco met us at the curb when we arrived, and took care of us until we left. This is a 1 couple romantic B&B that comes complete with concierge, driver, valet and new friend. Palermo was the last stop on a luxury trip through Sicily. After Taormina and Salina, we frankly didn't want to go to Palermo. That was... More

Eveything said before is true. I was skeptical but my skepticism was unfounded. The only thing I would differ on is the use of the local bus. You don't need to take the bus to the Center. At first I thought we were far from the Center. You are not. We walked everywhere in Palermo and we are not young.... More

Attic 12 and your host Francesco are both phenomenal. Five star accommodations with those incredible terrace views. But it's the little details that inspired me. Sewing kits, espresso machines, jacuzzi tub AND shower. Francesco created this as his living space; not for customers but valued guests and friends. Fresh squeezed orange juice and hand cut fruit for breakfast. Recommendations for... More

We enjoyed every minute of our stay at Attic 12. Francesco makes the great setting of the apartment a very special place. It was easy to find and although there is a bus to the centrum it is also a lovely walk.

The location is great, a short bus ride from Palermo center, high up on the 12th floor with amazing 360 degree vistas of Palermo, mountains and sea and great local restaurants. The room is tops - it has everything you need. We had a wonderful breakfast every morning on the terrace among lemon trees and these views. But the most... More

Staying at Attic 12 was an exceptional experience for me. If I could give it 100 stars I would. The physical setting is gorgeous with the vistas of the mountains and Palermo. The room is very comfortable with lots of extras,the spa, expresso machine and satellite TV. But what makes this place extraordinary is the owner, Francesco. It is his... More

My friend and I stayed at Attic 12 this past week and our only disappointment was we couldn't stay longer to enjoy the splendid location, views and hospitality that Francesco offers. He is by far one of the most gracious hosts I have ever encountered and truly goes out of his way to make sure your visit is ideal. His... More

Everything that's been said in all the glowing reviews is correct. Lovely room with huge bathroom, great views from the balcony, fantastic breakfast. But what really sets it apart is Francesco's incredible attentiveness - it was clear we were his highest priority and he did everything he could to make our stay a positive one. We stayed at Attic12 for... More

A fantastic weekend at Attic 12! it started when Francisco kindly drove through the traffic to chase the airport bus as II had left my wallet on it! The B and B is a real treasure- beautiful and full of the little touches that make a stay so special. Francisco certainly has a passion for his B and B and... More
