We investigate percolation phenomena in multifractal objects that are built in a simple way. In these objects the multifractality comes directly from the geometric tiling. We identify some differences between percolation in the proposed multifractals and in a regular lattice. There are basically two sources of these differences. The first is related to the coordination number, which changes along the multifractal. The second comes from the way the weight of each cell in the multifractal affects the percolation cluster. We use many samples of finite size lattices and draw the histogram of percolating lattices against site occupation probability. Depending on a parameter characterizing the multifractal and the lattice size, the histogram can have two peaks. We observe that the percolation threshold for the multifractal is lower than that for the square lattice. We compute the fractal dimension of the percolating cluster and the critical exponent beta. Despite the topological differences, we find that the percolation in a multifractal support is in the same universality class as standard percolation.
