Peering out over the harbour, this apartment places you in the heart of beautiful Palermo. Inside, the sleek and contemporary touches really caught our eye, as well as the sociable chef's kitchen ideal for preparing lunches to be enjoyed out on the private terrace – equipped with comfy chairs and an outdoor dining area, it's a lovely spot for enjoying the warm Sicilian sunshine. You will have to climb about 76 steps to reach this apartment and there's a floating staircase without a railing, which won't suit everyone. When you're ready to explore, historical landmarks such as the Cathedral of Palermo are a short walk away, as well as plenty of traditional restaurants and wine bars.

Home truths
Access to the apartment building is via a shared entrance.
The apartment is spread over multiple floors with no lift. You'll have to climb about 76 steep internal stairs, including a floating staircase without a railing.
The terrace is overlooked by neighbouring buildings so it lacks privacy, though we still think it's a lovely space.
Some of the artwork might not be to everyone's taste.
If you're staying more than a couple of days, you'll need to buy additional basic provisions.
We recommend skipping the car here and exploring Sicily on foot or by public transport instead.
Some parts of this home could do with a lick of paint and a little spruce up.
