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!

Historical charm and comfort some steps up...

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.
