The structure is a bit old and the cleaning is just sufficient... Many things to review

This hotel is conveniently located near the city center of Palermo. The rooms were very small, extremely outdated, and somewhat dark. The bathroom and rooms were very clean. If you are looking for just a place to sleep at a good price, it offers great value. The breakfast was amazing and the staff, helpful and accommodating.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, thanks for choosing our hotel and for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to know that you enjoyed our location in the heart of Palermo and that you found the rooms very clean. However, we are sorry to read that you found them small and outdated. We have different kind of rooms, some of them are smaller, others are bigger and more comfortable, it depends on the kind you booked (single, double, budget, executive, deluxe and so on). We are glad to hear that you really loved our breakfast and that you found the staff helpful and accomodating. We do our best to offer quality service and to make our guests feel welcome. We hope to see you again in the future. Best Regards, Jessica Customer Care

On the positive side, the hotel is in a good location close to many restaurants. The food for breakfast was fairly good. The single bedroom I had was very old and small. The view was bad and the air conditioning was like a fan with no cooling. They were also doing renovations down the hall and they started early in morning. My friends had a renovated room and it was much better.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, thanks for staying with us on the occasion of your Sicily tour and for taking the time to share your feedback. We have worked with groups like yours for so many years. It is the agency who chooses our hotel because they know and trust us and they like our hotel and services. They book the rooms for the guests, single or double ones and we assign them based on our availability. You had a single room according to the reservation and I would like you to know that our single rooms are renovated too. They are smaller than the double ones, of course and they do not have any balconies, but only a big window in the room and another one in the bathroom with a view on the courtyard. However, they are equipped with exactly the same amenities as all the other rooms and what's more, they have the newest mattresses in the hotel. Lastly, I would like to point out that they all have larger beds than normal even though they are singles. Unfortunately, when you came here there were no other rooms available and we did not have the possiiblity to propose you an upgrade to a double room for single use. Regarding breakfast, I would like to say that all the guests really love it. The continental buffet is very rich to satisfy everyone's tastes and needs and all the cakes and pies are homemade. I hope I have clarified everything and I hope that in the future you can return and maybe have a better experience. Best Regards, Jessica Customer Care

The hotel serves a terrific breakfast daily, with an array of fresh breads, fruits, eggs, yogart and cheese. The hotel is very cleaned and well organized situated in a good area of Palermo. The hop on hop off bus 1st stop is within several blocks from hotel. Giovanni, Joseph and Jessica made my stay very happy! Thanks everyone, I shall return. Ciao Ciao

We stayed here as we were in a group of 21 travelers. This one was probably the worst hotel we stayed at as it was in need of serious cleaning. Didnt have the best shower. As all other places, very small and shower head was stopped up. On our last day, we found a Bed Bug on the bed sheets! We told the front desk and he kinda brushed me off! He tried to give me an excuse that it probably came in through the balcony. I could tell he didnt care to know about it. I even emailed the Hotel through their website as well, and they never responded to me about the incident. In my eyes, finding a Bed Bug is grounds to never go back!
Response from Property: Dear Guest, thanks for staying wiht us on the occasion of your trip to Palermo and for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sad to read such a bad review, which, as you can see, is very different and distant from the others left by other guests. We don't only expect positive comments, we accept criticism when it is constructive, but unfortunately yours is not. We have already had the opportunity to talk about your experience because, unlike what you wrote here, we responded to your e-mail as we always do. As you said, you were here with a group of 21 travelers; we host many groups of various nationalities every year, especially in high season and you were the only one in that group to complain. We apologized profusely for the inconvenience and explained that by leaving the balcony open in the room all day, unfortunately mosquitoes and other insects could enter, as in fact happened. This has nothing to do with cleanliness, which we care so much about. We hope that this further response will be sufficient. Best Regards, Jessica Customer Care

Situated in the city centre this was an ideal jumping off place to start exploring Palermo. The room was spacious and spotless and furnished with a refrigerator and tea making facilities. The buffet breakfast was also excellent. The staff were very helpful in arranging wakeup call and transport to the airport.
Response from Property: Dear Guest, thank you so much for choosing our hotel on the occasion of your visit to Palermo and for taking the time to share this nice feedback. We are delighted to hear that you loved our hotel and services as well as our location in the heart of Palermo. We are also happy and proud to know that you found the staff very helpful. We do our best to make your vacations as comfortable as possible. We hope you to come back soon! Best Regards, Jessica Customer Care

Still at the hotel which came with a package but we really regret it. The conditioner for hot air is very loud, the room is very noisy and no hot water since 3 days! Also beware of cockroaches in the room. The only advantage is the geographical position in the city. The staff is nice!
Response from Property: Dear Guest, we are really sorry and saddened to see such a bad review. The central location and the value for money are not the only advantages of our hotel. We have an amazing staff, kind and helpful and we do our best to ensure an enjoyable and comfortable holiday for all our guests. Our rooms are comfortable and clean, some are larger than others and equipped with more services, but they are all welcoming. We offer a varied and delicious continental breakfast and various services aimed at helping our guests throughout their stay. We are truly sorry that when you was here there was a problem with hot water and we have already apologized for this many times. We did everything necessary to solve the problem promptly and you must have seen that every day the technicians took care of it until they completely solved the situation. We obviously understand the discomfort, but a little understanding wouldn't hurt. Regarding cockroaches, we reiterate that our hotel is very clean, because cleanliness and hygiene are the basis of hotel hospitality and we care a lot about them. Obviously in all cities, especially in the central areas, there are cockroaches and unfortunately sometimes they can enter with the shutters open. We hope we have answered everything accurately and convincingly. Best Regards, Jessica Customer Care

I had two weeks group tour starting Nov 12th and wanted to arrive a day earlier , but unable to reserve with a hotel that I am staying and hotel suggested hotel Tonic . I went ahead and booked hotel tonic for one night with out any research about the hotel since it was suggested , I am glad I did ,I get to enjoy the hotels charm . Very clean , central location and very respectable staff . Dinner suggestion by the reception team was great . As I was checking out my creditor ( credit card declined ) Mr. Jovani at the reception helped me call my credit card company right then and was able to rectify the problem . Breakfast room staff was great.

A wonderful week getting to know Palermo and the Hotel Tonic. A beautiful hotel in an excellent location. Spotlessly clean and the breakfast was plentiful. The staff were all polite and able to answer any questions we had. I will definitely be back, just for the balcony views. Grazzi

I booked a king bed, and the bed in my room is actually only double bed size and furthermore it is ROUND. I’ve never seen the bed from a swinging 60s bachelor pad in a hotel room before. The room also doesn’t have a chair, only the bed and a large sofa. there are more than a dozen steps up from the street to the reception desk. The breakfast room is located in the basement, which the elevator doesn’t reach, which means walking down the steps to the lobby, and then another large flight of stairs to the basement. And then back up all those stairs again to reach the elevator and return to the room. At check in I asked if I could keep my key and was told yes. Another desk clerk later told me I “wasn’t allowed“ to keep my key. I’m sorry I thought I was paying to stay here. fairly decent location on the main bus lines of Via Roma and with some restaurants in walking distance. The museum of archaeology is a 15 minute walk away and all the other museums and churches are much farther. Palermo has a very large pedestrian zone with no bus service inside it. my room is quite large with modern fixtures, although the floor is all concrete, no carpeting. Breakfast is adequate, but with not a lot of choice, and the staff there who bring your cappuccino are friendly. A/C, small flatscreen TV, large walk-in shower. If I had a choice, I would not want to return here again.

We stayed at this hotel for a week, I chose if for the location as rated by other travellers, and it did not disappoint. The location is amazing, so close to everything. The room we stayed in was quite small, but it was very clean and cleaned every day. The reception staff were amazing and really helpful. If we come back to Palermo, would definitely stay here again.

Great location in a clean large double room, shame only one air conditioner worked though and was not fixed or even had a fan to help with the heat after bringing to their attention. Lovely breakfast options and timeframes unfriendly staff though.
