Hotel for sale in Palermo, Centro storico

PALERMO HISTORIC CENTER – PRESTIGIOUS BUILDING WITH ESTABLISHED RECEPTION FACILITY FOR SALE In the heart of Palermo's historic center, along the prestigious Arab-Norman route, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, we offer for sale an extraordinary investment opportunity: an elegant, prestigious historic building housing a prestigious, well-established and fully operational hospitality facility, occupying a significant portion of the property, located in one of the city's most sought-after and visited areas. This investment combines the charm and asset value of a historic property with the high profitability of an established business, representing a rare opportunity in the Sicilian real estate market. The property is managed to high quality standards and enjoys an excellent reputation among national and international clients. The buyer will be able to immediately take over the management of an already established business, avoiding the time, risks, and costs typical of the start-up phase. The sale includes the entire property used for the hospitality business, the business, and all furnishings, equipment, and operating facilities necessary for the business. The property is being sold fully furnished and in perfect working order, ready to generate income from the day of the deed. Structure and characteristics The accommodation, located within this charming, expertly enhanced historic building, is organized according to the model of a "albergo diffuso" (a widespread hotel), particularly popular with international guests seeking an authentic experience in the heart of the city. The property has a total of 15 double bedrooms, spread over three floors, all equipped with: Private bathroom; air conditioning; high-speed Wi-Fi; LED TV; minibar; safe; kettle with complimentary toiletries; modern and functional furnishings. A distinctive feature of the property is the splendid panoramic terrace, a true added value, offering unparalleled views of the historic center's monuments, including the famous Casa Professa. This exclusive space significantly contributes to the high level of guest satisfaction and customer loyalty. Strategic position The property is located a short walk from Ballarò, Via Maqueda, Quattro Canti, the Church of San Cataldo, and the city's main cultural and monumental attractions. Central Station is just a five-minute walk away, ensuring a quick and convenient connection for Italian and international guests. The location, in the heart of Europe's largest historic center, ensures a constant flow of tourists throughout the year and is one of the investment's main strengths. Consolidated business and operating performance The business has enjoyed a high average occupancy rate for years, confirming the strength of tourist demand in Palermo and customer appreciation for the quality of the services offered. A particularly interesting fact is that the facility currently operates for approximately 325 days a year, remaining closed, due to business decisions, for approximately forty days. The excellent financial results are therefore achieved without fully exploiting the business's commercial potential. A potential extension of the opening period would allow for further increases in turnover and profitability without increasing capacity. Growth and valorization potential The investment offers further development prospects thanks to the enhancement works already planned for the property. Of particular importance among these is the future installation of an elevator, which will significantly improve accessibility and comfort, broadening the customer base and contributing to the building's commercial and asset value. The intervention could have a positive impact on both occupancy levels and average applicable rates. Why invest Sale includes the property and the accommodation business.
