Frommer's "The location is in the historic center of the old city, near many famous landmarks, including the Teatro Massimo." Full review
Lonely Planet "An atmospheric hotel in a crumbling 18th-century palazzo. Albergo Orientale is about as romantic and old-style as you're going to get in Palermo, at a relatively low price." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The courtyard entrance speaks of the faded nobility that used to live in this 18th-century palazzo."
Rough Guide "One of the most atmospheric of old-town hotels, an eighteenthcentury palazzo with a columned courtyard and marble staircase, a frescoed salon, and two cavernous, vaulted double rooms."
