Business hours of reception: 24 hours The ART HOTEL Atelier sul Mare, the only art-museum-hotel in the world, is located on the northern coast of Sicily (Italy), just few metres from the fantastic blue sea. The hotel is situated in Castel di Tusa, an enchanting little village near Cefalù and S.Stefano di Camastra, in the Messina province.
Atelier sul Mare offers 100 beds, and apart from art rooms, which are true art suites, our standard rooms are wide, comfortable, with flowery balconies facing the sea. It is possible to attend pottery classes in the hotel, as well as courses on Italian language, Italian cuisine, on Sicilian wines, horse riding, and going out fishing with local fishermen. Classical music concerts and art exhibitions are also very usual in our hotel.
Our hotel offers memorable experiences since its main feature is the presence of many important contemporary artworks of well known artists inside and outside the hotel. In fact 20 out of 40 rooms were designed by important internationally recognized artists. The Atelier sul Mare is mentioned in world famous hotel publications, like hip and top hotel guides. It has style and much to offer to the VIP as well as the curious and clever tourist and traveller. |
Extremely interesting concept, friendly staff, lovely paintings and artwork everywhere in the hotel
More a museum than a hotel. I would rather recommend visiting the place and seeing the rooms rather than actually staying there. Especially the location Tusa is very uninteresting and boring, the small harbour is not really the way it looks on the pictures. The only good thing about the location is its proximity to Cefalu.
