I enjoyed my stay at Hotel Plaza Opera, thanks to its excellent location near Palermo's attractions and a very friendly staff. The rooms were comfortable, though a bit on the small side, which I found typical for city hotels. The breakfast options, while decent, left a bit to be desired, especially the fruit selection. Overall, I would consider returning, as the hotel's convenience and hospitality were its standout features.

I had a lovely stay at Hotel Plaza Opera! The rooftop views were stunning and the breakfast spread was one of the best I've experienced, with a good variety to choose from. On the downside, the air conditioning was not operational during my visit, and I found the room quite small for my needs. Overall, the hotel's location near attractions made it a convenient choice, but the room size was a bit of a letdown.
