Sono tornata al Ballarattik portando amici, che sono rimasti affascinati dalla collocazione (in pieno mercato storico), dalla comodità del b&b (la vista è spettacolare), e dalla simpatia e disponibilità dell'host Rosario. Grazie a lui e a Ballarò abbiamo avuto una vera esperienza immersiva nella Palermo meno turistica. Siamo tornati molto, molto soddisfatti. Translate this text

Il B&B si trova al 6 piano di uno dei palazzi più alti proprio nel quartiere di Ballaró, in mezzo al famoso e caratteristico mercato. La vista dalle finestre e dal terrazzo è meravigliosa, si possono ammirare tutte le chiese di Palermo. La camera è pulita ed ordinata, un pochino piccolo lo spazio in cui è inserito il letto, ma con un materasso veramente comodo. Rosario e sua moglie, sono super accoglienti e disposti a darti tantissime informazioni utili per visitare Palermo. Lo consiglio per chi vuole davvero immergersi in uno dei quartieri più caratteristici fatto di musica, voci e profumo di arancini… Giulia. Translate this text

Per chi non ha problemi di “adattamento” alla posizione in cui si trova (è in pieno mercato di Ballarò), Ballarattik è il punto ideale per visitare il centro storico di Palermo. È a pochi minuti a piedi dalla maggior parte dei luoghi di interesse turistico, soltanto il porto vecchio e il nuovo lungomare sono un po’ più distanti. È una buona struttura, funzionale, con un fantastico terrazzo panoramico, gestita in maniera discreta ma presente da Rosario. Translate this text

Very nice 3 days stay there. Although i did not like the entrance in the building because it is from the market (i am not a fan of the Ballar historic market) i have to admit the over night the view was spectacular. Rosario is a great host recommended us nice places and did his best so that we have a comfortable stay at the property- which is 150 m close to a main walking street very nice. The breakfast is standard Italian so do not expect vegetables, omelet or anything like that but great coffee, a croissant fresh fruits, water and juice.

Ballarattik è un avamposto nel cuore di Ballarò, la posizione permette di assaporare tutto ciò che Palermo offre. Un bel terrazzo con affaccio sul mercato, i canti dei venditori al mattino, gli aromi speziati, le cupole delle chiese e i colori. Poi c'è Rosario simpatico e stravagante condottiero del vascello da informazioni e saggezze, Ballarattik lascia il segno. Translate this text

Our stay was wonderful. The room was nicely decorated and furnished. My daughter had an early morning doctor appointment and this was the perfect location for us to both enjoy the market and surrounding sites and easily access her doctor. We arrived earlier than expected and we were warmly welcomed. The room had amazing, breathtaking city views. And you could hear the vibrant market life but if you needed quiet, closing the windows and shutters offers terrific sound dampening. There will be sounds and smells being so close to the market of course-more ambience than nuisance honestly The area did not give ‘dangerous’ vibes at night and we felt comfortable walking for our evening walk and out to dinner. Rosario was understanding of our need to leave early as well and he made that quite easy. Not to mention he was so understanding of my broken speaking of Italian We will hopefully be able to return and stay again. Thank you for making us feel so welcomed.

Great place to stay, Rosario was amazing as he responded quickly to our messages and suggested a great place to have dinner. It's a little difficult to find, but the rooms were great and a five minute walk to Quattro Canti and the market is right outside the building. Views from the room were magnificent and would definitely stay here again when returning to Palermo.

Wonderful place, area verging on the old Arab district, may look creepy to many, but the experience is unforgettable. The view from the room, the non-obvious safety of the place... will come back if opportunity arises.

Il B&B è comodissimo e molto ben tenuto, le camere sono belle con viste molto buone. Il solo punto sorprendente e abbastanza sgradevole è il quartiere un po' oppressivo che può impaurire al di fuori dei giorni di mercato. Nonostante, la localizzazione permette di accedere velocemente a tutti i punti d'interesse e alla stazione, una posizione strategica per percorrere la città a piedi. Translate this text

Rosario
More info
Hello everyone. My name is Rosario Cicciarella for friends Saro. I am originally from Modica in the province of Ragusa.

Since 2019 I have been living in Palermo with my partner Caterina and my 10-year-old daughter Viola.

I lived abroad for many years in London and then in Brussels. We have decided to return to our land and to bring a little European breath to the neighborhood of the Historical Market of Ballarò.

We speak English, French, Italian, Arabic and a little bit of Spanish.

We are passionate about cooking and music and we like to travel with the mind along with your adventures.

A glass of wine on the terrace at sunset, going around the city, concerts, art exhibitions, cultural events.

We are part of some third sector associations in the hotel district, we are in favor of inclusion and hospitality policies and we put the concept of humanity first. Our land is where our feet rest.

We are waiting for you in our structure and we will try to brighten your stay by giving you all the possible advice to be able to experience an unforgettable stay in our beautiful land.

The sea, the sun, in street food, enjoy a good glass of wine talking and dreaming with you.

Soon!

Ros.
