Sicily

Nowhere in Italy mixes landscape, culture, and history quite like Sicily. In the span of a day, you can hike a spewing volcano, go for a swim in the crystalline sea, take photos of Baroque architecture, and gawk at ruins so old that they make the Colosseum look young. Even Sicilian cuisine is something unique, where couscous is as common as pasta and gelato isn’t served in a cup or a cone, but rather in a freshly baked brioche bun — the ultimate ice cream sandwich.

Rome

With an uncanny sense of foresight, Rome was first called the Eternal City 2,000 years ago. Even by today’s standards, it’s still grand in a way that few other places can compare to. The buildings are dilapidated and the roads disheveled, but chaos has never looked so exquisite. The cobblestone streets may be nonsensical, but a wrong turn always leads to an unexpected delight: an intimate piazza, a baroque fountain, or a homey trattoria serving house-made cacio e pepe.

Your Stay: First Hotel Musica

Why we love it for you: Elevating the hospitality experience in the Eternal City, a hotel in Rome harmoniously weaves together modern design and musical inspiration, creating a symphony of comfort and style. Located near iconic landmarks, this boutique gem captivates guests with its avant-garde decor, where musical notes dance across the walls and chic furnishings orchestrate an atmosphere of urban sophistication. From the rooftop terrace boasting breathtaking views of the city skyline to the thoughtfully curated amenities, the hotel promises an unforgettable sojourn where every stay is a poetic crescendo in the heart of Rome.
