What a unique experience staying at a property like that, the history and beauty of the place is extraordinary. The gardens were so beautiful and relaxing with the smell of the jasmine flowers. The views of Etna and the sea were so amazing. The breakfast in the morning was so delicious. The staff and the owners so attentive, we even got a private tour of the museum. The location was fantastic near everything. I would highly recommend this place don’t hesitate book, so relaxing and beautiful! An experience to cherish in Taormina!

Beautiful stay in art and history of Taormina

Our stay was an unforgettable experience, and we cannot recommend it enough! The location is fantastic; every room has a view of the ocean, Etna, and the breathtaking garden. You can easily walk to the city center in no time. All the staff members were so kind and welcoming. We learned so much about the property’s history from the guided tour and are very happy to be part of the conservation of Casa Cuseni.

Quiet elegance

You are literally staying in a Museum, so there aren't very many common areas to lounge in, and there isn't a restaurant (other than the little one at the top of the building where breakfast is served). The room we stayed in (Greta Garbo), was spacious, comfortable and had a simple beauty. (Except for the terrace, which was stunning). The hotel is also high above the town, so the views are spectacular, but there are a lot of stairs down into the town, and coming back up is a long haul). If you are looking for private, quiet elegance, without a ton of people or a busy hotel, then this is the place for you.

Amazing

What an amazing experience.This place is steeped in culture and history, and has the most amazing views of Taormina. It is not very modern in terms of furnishings or facilities (as they have tried to maintain the authenticity of the place), but that's a small price to pay in return for the amazing hospitality of the property manager and incredible historical tour she gave during our stay. Definitely recommend.

Superb and unusual

This is one of the loveliest most atmospheric places I have ever stayed. Every room is unique and rich with character and distinctive, artful decor. The views of the sea and Mt. Etna are beyond stunning: the volcano seemed to loom just beyond the terrace of my room. The staff was warm and welcoming, the breakfast excellent, and the location within Taormina convenient to everything. The brief tour of the villa is extremely interesting; all sorts of unusual guests have stayed there duringit's earlier incarnation as a private villa. I will happily return whenever I have the opportunity.
