You Can Stay in 'The Godfather' House for Just $50 a Night

The Staten Island house featured in The Godfather is now available to book on Airbnb. The property, which was as Vito Corleone (Marlon Brando)'s home in the 1972 mafia film, also memorably served as the backdrop for the opening scene, featuring the wedding reception of Connie Corleone (Talia Shire).

"Built in 1930, our charming but expansive 6,248-square-foot home has undergone renovations and is completely modernized, while still being recognizable from the exterior for its appearance in 'The Godfather' 1972 film," a description on Airbnb explains.

Per the listing, the home has five bedrooms and seven bathrooms. There's also a saltwater pool, a pub in the basement, a game room, and a gym. The listing is available for a 30-night stay in August 2022, for $50 a night.

The Staten Island mansion was used as the exterior for the Corleone family home, while interior scenes were shot at Filmways Studios in Harlem, Manhattan. During filming, director Francis Ford Coppola built an artificial wall around the property so it seemed like a larger compound. The production discovered the English Tudor Mansion when Giani Russo, who played Carlo Rizzi and grew up in Staten Island, recommended the house.

Numerous Godfather scenes were filmed on the property, including Vito Corleone's heart attack, and in Godfather Part II, the estate is the home base for Peter Clemenza (Richard S. Castellano) and then Frankie Pentangeli (Michaael V. Gazzo).

The Airbnb listing suggests the home is "most suitable" for two adults and three children. Booking opens at 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, July 27 on Airbnb.
