| Commissioned by the famous Florio family at the end of the nineteenth century, at the height of the ‘Belle Epoque’, this magnificent villa was originally destined to become an exclusive healthcare centre. Hence the name Igiea (Hygieia),
the goddess of health in Greek mythology. Transformed into a sophisticated hotel, it became one of the most prestigious hotels in the world, hosting the most renowned royal families
as well as numerous celebrities.

As for relaxation, a splendid jasmine garden and a panoramic swimming pool overlooking the sea create a
memorable atmosphere.
With its unique location at the foot of Monte Pellegrino just 3 km from the centre of Palermo, the hotel is the perfect starting point from which
to venture out and discover the city and its surrounding areas. Reminders of bygone eras abound as well as historic and cultural attractions and main shopping streets which are just a short distance away.
Thanks to its strategic position and flexible conference facilities which can host up to 1,000 delegates, Villa Igiea Hilton Palermo is the ideal location for every kind of event. All rooms benefit from natural daylight which is more than enough to brighten up any meeting. State-of-the-art audiovisual equipment includes wireless Internet technology in every area.

accommodating from 15 to 40 delegates, 1 exhibition area for shows and product launches and 1 sunny veranda with sea view, ideal for

proudly display a portrait which pays tribute to the noble credentials of ‘Lady’ Franca Florio, painted by the master Giovanni Boldini.
