Quattro Incanti
Quattro Canti di città (also known as Ottangolo or Teatro del Sole) is the name given to the square - Piazza Vigliena - formed by the intersection of Corso Vittorio Emanuele (known, in current use, by the name that the Arabs gave to the oldest city district, Cassaro) with Via Maqueda. In this place, where the four quarters of the seventeenth century city meet, where the sun dances from dawn to dusk, Palermo had its own center of gravity.
This was the hub of city life, a place for strolling and loitering; here information about shows, events, and happenings converged and spread; here workers and servants gathered in search of work and masters to serve.
A constant coming and going, from every direction and in all directions, has always characterized the square. Yesterday as today. The nerve center of the historic center of Palermo, an essential destination for tourists and visitors, the Quattro Canti square represents the ideal starting point for any exploratory journey of the city.
This place of meeting, observation and passage, so fascinating and majestic in its design, composition and architectural ornaments taken along the seventeenth century from the project of the royal architect Giulio Lasso, to finish with the decorations of the architect Mariano Smiriglio, is connected, already in the choice of the name, Quattro Incanti. A support point in the city center, easily accessible, dedicated to those who choose Palermo as a destination or stopover on their journey to Sicily, to discover its multifaceted architectural, artistic, monumental, folkloric richness, and also to taste dishes and delicacies of the renowned gastronomic culture, explore the colorful landscape that serves as a backdrop, the surroundings of the city, the nearby places full of attractions, curiosities and local traditions.
A few meters from the Quattro Canti square, right next to the Real Teatro Santa Cecilia, the oldest in the city, Quattro Incanti is located inside a Liberty-style building from the late eighteenth century, overlooking the elegant Via Roma on one side, and Piazza Teatro Santa Cecilia on the other, with access from Via Piccola del Teatro Santa Cecilia no. 5.
At Quattro Incanti, breakfast is designed to offer a first taste of Sicilian culture and culinary quality, with a wide selection of flavors, a rich presentation of colors and shapes, and careful consideration of seasonal events and local culinary peculiarities.
On the second level (accessed by a convenient internal staircase), the living room and terrace are entirely separate from the sleeping area and are used for breakfast.
A sweet Sicilian festival of flavors, scents, and colors awaits to delight and amaze guests and includes a buffet of typical products, seasonal fruits and jams, yogurt and juices, sweets and croissants, biscuits and cakes, as well as the inevitable cappuccinos, latte macchiatos, and coffees, served directly at the tables.
The setting is completed by a panoramic view, which can be enjoyed from the terrace available to guests, ranging from the nearby Real Teatro Santa Cecilia to the Palazzo Valguarnera Ganci (a set for some scenes of the film "Il Gattopardo"), to the roofs of the city center's houses, all the way to Montepellegrino, "the most beautiful promontory in the world," the final resting place of Santa Rosalia, patron saint of Palermo.
Italian breakfast is served daily from 8:00 am to 10:00 am.
