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!

Casa Cuseni is not a traditional hotel, but a mix of museum, residence and albergo boutique situated just some (dozen) steps from Porta Catania. It may not be for everyone, but it suited me quite well. The room is large, the furniture is as historical as the building itself, the bed is comfortable, linen and towels are of superior quality, and it seems like you grandma house, with an atmosphere a bit twisted. I loved my stay; the views are amazing, and my room had an enormous terrace which offered me the Etna all day long. If you are not looking for a chain hotel, and you like different places to stay, and you don't mind climbing some steps two or three or four times a day, Casa Cuseni may be the place for you. Last thing: there is a new pool available... enjoy!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Loved staying in a Casa with so much history. Really loved staying in the William Faulkner room, as he is a neighbor from Oxford, Mississippi. Great old home. Lot of restoration being done with space and gardens being worked on! Gardens were extensive and wonderfully put in by Kitson, the original English owner

Absolutely stunning views and gardens. Staff was extremely helpful and cheerful. Large rooms and balconies. On the side of a hill over the town, so some fitness is required as there are steps and no elevator. Part Museum, Greta Garbo, Picasso, others stayed here. Older hotel. Trying to find it could be difficult as typewritten name over door buzzer is only sign. Signs in town point you in the right direction though and drivers know where it’s at.

We stayed in the Greta Garbo suite at Casa Cuseni as a family of three. Plenty of room, character and lovely veranda with stunning view of Mt Etna, sea and garden. New shower and bathroom. Short walk downhill to town. We were very pleased and comfortable!

The property has a fascinating history, is designated a National Monument, and delivers stunning views of Mount Etna and the sea from its hillside location.
