Hostel Ostello A.I.G. Baia Del Corallo (Palermo, Italy)

About Ostello A.I.G. Baia Del Corallo

Palermo, the light-coloured houses, the illuminated trees like swarms of fireflies: this was Goethe's impression, trying to decribe a city that fills travellers eyes. When the look can wander from a wonderful gulf to the mountains, from superb palaces to rare monuments, when the spectacle of nature merges with architecture, travellers eyes stop judging, just observe. A city that just for its colours, climate and scents was loved indistinctly by Phoenicians, Normans, Romans and Arabs. Going out of the hostel, there are many possible itineraries, almost infinite. You can walk to "Piazza Vigliena" also named "The Sun Theatre", reaching in a short time to "Cassaro", as the Arabs called the most ancient fortification of the city. Few further steps and you can find the Norman Palace and the Cathedral, real architectural jewels. The Youth Hostel is situated in the splendid gulf of Sferracavallo where it directly faces the sea. The hostel is connected by public bus with the center of Palermo. Palermo's Youth Hostel offers the opportunity to experience sea and nature as well as history, culture and art of one of the most ancient cities of the Mediterreanean. It is also an excellent base for visiting Erice, Segesta, Cefalù , Agrigento and many more other places in Siciliy. Reception is opened from 7.30 to 10.00 a.m and from 15.00 to 23.00 p.m. If you think to arrive later please call before. It's important for the check-in but when you'll stay here you can have the key of the gate so the hostel always is opened.
