Hotel & Hostel Firenze

Hostel Firenze is the first real youth hostel in the historical city centre of Palermo. The hostel is reborn from an old elegant hotel in liberty style which immerges you in the romantic past when Palermo was an affluent city. Now the hostel is runned by the Italo-Dutch Bruno family.

Hostel Firenze is located in Via Candelai in the lively heart of Palermo's nightlife. Surrounded by pubs, bars and restaurants, the hostel is the ideal location for young travellers.

The hostel is close to the major monuments of Palermo's historical centre (Teatro Massimo, la Cattedrale, i Quattro Canti, Piazza Marina and Palermo's colourful markets) and is thus the perfect starting point for a complete sightseeing tour.
