Sui Tetti di Balarm is located in the heart of the historic center, where Kemonia stream once crossed the ancient city, among the flavors and colors of the most authentic and multicultural Palermo, a stone's throw from the Quattro Canti, the Cathedral, the market of Ballarò, from the most spectacular churches and the main places of interest in the city.

A place suspended over the city, nestled like a pearl among roofs and domes of the most beautiful churches.

A residence with an intimate and familiar atmosphere recently renovated to offer travelers four exclusive and elegant boutique rooms.

Palermo, cradle of peoples and mosaic of traditions and cultures; Land of very strong antinomies, legacy of a stratified past. An incredible history of dominations partly traced with the names of the rooms of this residence:

Araba Room, Normanna Room, Sveva Room, Angioina Room

All rooms offer irresistible fascinating views of the ancient city

The rooms are furnished with attention to detail, according to a simple design and natural tones, to give each space harmony and a profound sense of tranquility. All accommodations are equipped with parquet flooring, a queen size double bed, double pillows, private bathroom, clothes hanger, flat-screen smart TV, free wi-fi connection, independent air conditioners and central heating.

A simple but precious concept that reflects our way of thinking and welcoming

The residence was designed to guarantee guests of the four boutique rooms the opportunity to enjoy common spaces with a typical family atmosphere.

Every corner of this house amaze the guests with a thousand-year-old flavour wonder.

The living room, with its natural shades, is furnished with refinement, harmony of colors and attention to detail, designed to welcome the guests in a comfortable atmosphere and to diffuse a deep sense of tranquility.

A bright and elegant kitchen with a tea and coffee corner is available for guests to prepare drinks and snacks, to use the refrigerator and the water purifier.

The use of the hob is not permitted.

The living room and the kitchen give access to the terrace: a small garden suspended in time, resting on the roof of the Oratory of Santa Maria delle Grazie, overlooking the roofs and the bells of the old city; an oasis of peace with an Arabian flavor which at sunset is tinged with the colors of the most authentic and contrasting Palermo.

"Palermo, safe haven of Peace,
rich treasure of Abundance,
perpetual seat of Justice,
the only shelter of Happiness,
sacred temple of Religion,
illustrious dwelling of Glory,
glorious Crown and mirror of the Kingdom"

GIROLAMO BRANCI, speech in defence of the city of Palermo, 1586

The residence is located in Piazza del Ponticello, in the ancient Albergheria district and in the heart of the historic center of Palermo. The name of the square preserves memory of the little bridge that until 1591 crossed the Kemonia (the "river of bad weather"), one of the streams that lapped the old city.
Numerous plaques in three languages (Italian, Arabic, Hebrew) indicate the names of the streets, testifying the multicultural soul of the district..

In the pulsating heart of the ancient streets but sheltered from its noise, the residence is located a few steps from the wonderful churches of Casa Professa, Santa Caterina, San Cataldo and the "Martorana", from Piazza Pretoria, the Quattro Canti, the suggestive market of Ballarò and the main places of interest in the city.

A strategic position to discover and explore the extraordinary history of Palermo on foot
