Luggage storage at Palermo Centrale Station

If you're arriving in Palermo by rail and your accommodation isn't ready yet, the station has its own left-luggage facility, run by a third-party operator.

Palermo Centrale sits on the south-east edge of the historic centre and has a staffed storage facility, open daily from 08:00 to 20:00. You'll find it inside the station in the little square next to the public toilets, so it's easy to reach without leaving the concourse.

The 08:00-to-20:00 window is worth noting if you're arriving late or leaving on an early InterCity service to Naples, Rome, or Milan, because the facility won't be open outside those hours. Tram Line 1 terminates at the station and runs from the Roccella area in around 22 minutes, which is useful if you're staying further out and want to reach the station without a taxi.

Getting around with luggage: trains, trams, and walking

Palermo Centrale is a terminal for regional services in Sicily and a terminus for long-distance InterCity trains, and the step-free access to and from the trains means you're not hauling bags up and down stairs. Regional trains run directly to Palermo Airport from the station, which is handy if you want to catch a flight without a car. Le Frecce high-speed trains don't call at Palermo Centrale, so if you're heading north to Rome or Milan, expect an InterCity journey instead of the faster AV services. Once you've sorted your bags, the historic centre is genuinely walkable: Piazza Pretoria is one of the closest landmarks at a 12-to-20-minute walk, and most of the main monuments and neighbourhoods sit within 10 to 25 minutes on foot. If you need assistance getting from train to street with bags or if you have reduced mobility, the RFI Sala Blu inside the station can arrange help in person or by phone.
