The Terrace on Norman wants to be your home in Palermo, offering hospitality, information and tools to enable you to know and experience a complex city like Palermo in view of a responsible and sustainable tourism.
The Terrazza sui Normanni is the first small step towards the realization of a great desire: to make Palermo known in the way I learned to know it myself. What I would like to do is offer a city that is not only monuments and souvenirs but that is emotions, beauty, resistance, sounds, flavors, smells and colors.
Because
Because after years of conflict with this mistreated city I am definitely and madly in love; I owe so much to the many friends scattered in Italy and out that I had the pleasure of accompanying his ways and that they gave me the enormous gift to make me see through their eyes, allowing me to see and appreciate many facets that living there I had incredibly, never noticed.
As
1) La Terrazza sui Normanni offers to all its guests a welcome kit, consisting of a seasonal fruit basket, 3 proposals for classic itineraries (in the form of a brochure) that will let you know the most famous monuments and markets of the historic center moving exclusively on foot; plus the itinerary of the "unmissable outside the walls"; the "for the little ones" itinerary; the gastronomic itinerary with the indication of "where to eat what"; the "nocturnal" itinerary to enjoy a Palermo that lives the street even at night; the itinerary of the "hidden treasures" for the most demanding visitors; the itinerary of "pride against the mafia"; and finally, since we do not want to hide anything, the itinerary of "what we do not like". You will also find a collection of cards with descriptions and curiosities on all the points proposed in the brochures, plus the green and legal Palermo map.
2) At Terrazza sui Normanni you will find a small collection of books that I have loved most on Sicily and Palermo, my guests are invited to browse and respect them;
3) At Terrazza sui Normanni you will find Wi-Fi and a small Hi-Fi system but you will not find a TV; for more than 10 years I have eliminated this object from my home and my habits and moreover I think that being on holiday in a city like Palermo is almost a sacrilege to waste time in front of the TV, guests are rather invited to relax on the terrace of ' apartment with a good book and the splendid view of the oldest parliament in the world; company games, coloring books and cards are still available to children.
4) The Terrace on the Normans wants to be "beautiful" so you will find works by young local artists, no big names just friends that I want to introduce you to know them and make them known.
5) The Terrace on the Normans is equipped with heaters and air conditioners for the summer months, but with a view to ecological sustainability, guests are invited to use them in the right measure.
6) You will then be provided with additional information before your arrival on events in the city, how to move to the most distant places of interest from the center or to rent municipal bikes in the nearby bike-point, and more.

We were not expecting a whole comfortable apartment to ourselves and it was all the more pleasant when we arrived. Giovanna was very welcoming and made us very comfortable.
Also the apartment was so well placed for visiting the old town......no car needed and the great 'free bus ' took us wherever we wanted to go.
It has been noticed: Energy saving lights, Car-free accessibility.
Thanks a lot Robert, has been a pleasure for me! :)
