The staff was really helpful however poor maintenance in the room, ants in the bathroom, no double sheet for the bed. The pizzeria restaurant was also poor for the quality of the food and the staff

Overall we had a great time! The hotel is very wetter and enjoyed our front view of the tyrrenian Sea

On the positive side, we had one of the 3 suites and the room was spacious and the view of the sea was nice. However the suites are directly attached to the restaurant, which was rented out for private events. Every night there was a private event with DJ. Basically it was like a nightclub. If extremely loud dance music until 1:30 in the morning is not your idea of a relaxing vacation, then don't stay here. Then at 7:30 am the piano player starts playing in the breakfast restaurant directly above my bed. So be prepared to get very little sleep in the suites. The breakfast was very chaotic because too many guests, not enough tables and not enough staff. It was difficult to find staff to make a hot cappuccino. I literally had the worst and cold cappuccino here. There is very little to basically almost no fruit at breakfast, which is surprising for Sicily. But the few staff that were there did try very hard. My suggestion is to get rid of the piano player and hire 2-3 more waiting staff. And get some decent fresh fruit. I believe this location gives the brand a bad name.

The hotel needs some updating. WiFi was horrible if that matters. The rooms are super basic no amenities

Parking not adequate. Staff response

It was a pretty good stay. We like the location of the beach, even though I’m too many rocks, water was warm and it served it’s purpose

There was a bar area above the room that I was staying so I heard music playing til midnight. If you don’t like music, you should ask for a room away from the bar. Otherwise the place is in a great location and perfect for a quick stay.

Very clean and modern rooms and property. Always beach lounge chairs available and private beach means no vendors bugging you to buy things and the lifeguards kept it safe to swim for all.

Our rooms were immaculate, everything you could possibly want including the most beautiful beach is right at your fingertips. Alessia the beautiful young woman who cooks at breakfast was such a joy along with her coworkers. I highly recommend breakfast because of these sweet and attentive staff members. Also, the young lady who prepares cocktails by the pool, also outstanding. The front desk staff was very helpful as well. I can’t say enough good things about this property and the amenities. I also would like to mention the gentleman who helps at check-in to carry bags, he is so on top of things. Overall, it was a fantastic stay.

The Sporting Club Hotel is an outstanding hotel located on the Mediterranean. Everything that was stated on the hotel website was true. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The room was clean and well maintained each day. Breakfast was outstanding and included which made it very easy each to get started each day. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone wanting to avoid busy Palermo or Cefalu.

Overall good experience. Worth to go and stay at this place in Palermo.

It was a last minute booking and the stay was exceptional. Rooms were lovely, staff excellent, beautiful pool, parking easy and the restaurant meals wonderful. The pizza is exceptional!

Cleaning service was excellent. Parking was also good, but it was off season so there weren’t too many guests. The ambience around the pool was stellar with comfortable canopies beds and places to enjoy the sun. Breakfast was provided by the neighboring restaurant, and the woman who made omelettes could not have been more un-friendly! In fact, “omelette lady” has now become code between my husband and me for a person who is not nice. Our bed was too bouncy, but the room was spacious. We had a flood from the shower into the bedroom, and the staff told us not to worry about it and that it was “normal.” That struck us as strange, but we figured it was an Italian thing.

Great hotel and the best restaurant. Such a great place for dinner.

The sheets had cigarette burns in them. The location was not the best.

The hotel could use a little tlc but over totally worth the stay

Great views, lovely staff, great room and hotel but completely inaccessible without a car. No way to walk from the hotel to the station because there are no pavements on the roads. Had to rely on $25 taxi journeys each way just to be able to leave the hotel. No shops around the hotel, had to go to Palermo.

We stayed for 5 days. Great staff and service. Specially from Mariano and Francesca. The private beach is perfect to relax. From this location we visited many places in Sicilia doing day trips. The view is stunning and very nice to have breakfast with this view.

The ocean view was incredible falling asleep to the sound of waves. Every night was very peaceful however, the Internet did not work in the room. Even when they provided an alternate Wi-Fi source moved at a snails pace. You had to stay in the lobby. The hotel seems like it’s designed more for locals that need a staycation because there is nothing around the hotel doesn’t have room service or anything within walking that is helpful for a first time visitor. They have an ice cream shop and a small store on the premises plus a restaurant, but it’s literally in the middle of nowhere in the hotel provides no shuttle service or transportation, except for calling a taxi service. It’s definitely a venue for parties (baby showers wedding receptions, etc.) doesn’t necessarily seem designed for tourists for vacation. If you don’t go to eat at the times when the restaurant is open, there’s nowhere else for you to go and they don’t allow you to bring food from outside to the hotel. A lot of areas of the hotel are extremely rundown. It just seems like somebody abandoned the hotel or was in the middle of renovating and walked away from the project. The staff is very limited the gentlemen in the front did their best. Most of the time everyone acts like you’re inconveniencing them when you ask a question.

good
