Book a Santa Cristina Gela Resort

"Since Palermo is known for its gorgeous architecture, it seemed fitting to stay in a historic hotel. The Wagner is old-school large, beautiful, and gracious. I’m so happy the owners are preserving it. Staff are incredibly welcoming- not “stuffy”. Bar is a dark, cozy space to relax. Breakfast is the best we had in Italy. Robes are so appreciated for the traveler dealing with a limited carryon wardrobe. Location is fantastic for walking to sites, shopping, restaurants… my only request is to have in-room coffee/tea setup. "

"Breakfast was amazing many options and lots to eat. Room was fantastic bed extremely comfortable. Room 102 has a beautiful private patio exclusive to the room. Very much enjoyed my stay. Will definitely recommend this hotel."

"Lovely room on charming old street near lots of bars and restaurants- highly recommended "

"AC wasnt working, but I think that's an Italy thing. As a result the room was overly hot and not as advertised (false claim of AC). It was near many attractions and food places and in a great area. Checkin and checkout were easy and the room was clean. Only a single pillow, but it was adequate enough to sleep. Bed was pretty comfy. I would personally choose another location given the lack of AC and uncomfortable conditions, even if they're forced upon you by the government, it should be noted for people if it's not actually available. "

"A great little place in a great location. The staff were wonderful. The breakfast was fine - but more protein options for non meaters would be good. "

"Excellent breakfast. Location super. Very helpful and accommodating staff. A definite find ! Thanks to Filippo on the way in and Alessio during our stay. "

"Great location with amazing views of the sea and coastline and very close to the old town, botanic gardens and Villa Guilia. Our room was on 3rd floor with balcony. Large room with a huge bed, moden decor and a powerful shower. Breakfast was plentiful and staff were attentive. Highly recommended."

"We truly enjoyed our stay in Palermo here. The location was excellent - close to everything we wanted to explore, yet still comfortable and relaxing. The owner and staff were incredibly kind, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. They really made us feel at home. Overall, a wonderful experience that we would happily recommend to others!"

"Now, THIS is a true 5 star experience! Magnificent hotel with a perfect location, unbelievably helpful staff and super clean. Perfect service, impeccable food, breakfast and everything else. If you want to stay in luxury in Palermo, this is where you go! Grazie Mille !"
