Description from owner

Description

A brand-new, fully furnished apartment in the heart of the old city overlooking a peaceful public garden of palms and orange trees. Situated on the first floor of a recently renovated small building, Xirba is a short walk to all major tourist attractions.

The apartment greets you immediately with its decor and attention to detail giving you the warm, safe and cosy felling you are used to when you are in your own home.

This bright, sunny flat consists of two confortable good-sized bedrooms, a cosy and spacious living room and two newly fitted bathrooms with shower. There is also a fully equipped kitchen, with oven, dishwasher, plus plenty of pots and pans if you get in the mood for cooking. The bedrooms are quiet and tastefully decorated with plenty of storage space.

90 square meters of harmony to accommodate sole travellers, professionals, families, friends and couples who want to have a relaxing break in the Sicilian capital and enjoy its beauty until the very last sip directly from the heart of the city.

Getting around

WARNING: Anyone who is planning to drive in Palermo's historic centre needs to be aware of Restricted Traffic Areas, or Zona Traffico Limitato in Italian, abbreviated to ZTL. The old town centre has set up these limited traffic zones in order to reduce congestion and pollution, and there are significant fines for driving into one of these zones unauthorized. No cars without permits can be allowed in this area. So, If you are planning on driving in the historic centre of Palermo, make sure you inform me about that, so I can tell you where to take your 5-euro daily entrance ticket and how to activate it in order to get in the city centre without getting fined.
