Shalai - Exclusive Spa and Small Gourmet Hotel

Elegante struttura nel centro di Linguaglossa, facilmente raggiungibile in auto. Interni eleganti e ben tenuti. Buono il materasso e ottima la colazione. Migliorabile la manutenzione degli arredamenti della mia camera.

A charming restaurant located inside a magnificent historic building. The staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable, making even a chat about wines and dishes enjoyable. The chef offers creations that enhance local ingredients, combining them impeccably. The wine list, more like a book, offers a vast selection. It was an extraordinary experience for my birthday: I felt welcomed, pampered and completely at ease.

English: The hotel is located inside a historic building of considerable charm, particularly evident in the frescoed ceiling of the relaxation room. The room reserved for me was large, yet very basic, with a small recess used as a wardrobe, also occupied by the cabinet containing the fridge/safe, which however essentially allowed for hanging coats with a shelf above: I found it not very functional for someone who would need to unpack their suitcase. Similarly, in the room there was only a small table, a chair and a stool, a shelf would have been useful, but also a simple waste bin, and it would have been appreciated for a structure of its level to also find water available, in addition to the paid water in the fridge. Large shower (but the tray would need maintenance), spacious beds, with very soft linens, but my mattress was slightly sunken compared to my taste. The starred restaurant, as well as the breakfast, are worth the cost of the visit alone. The chef's dishes are tasty, refined, flavourful, and the dining room staff perfectly manages to describe the thought behind each dish. Extremely large cellar, as it should be for a starred restaurant. The Spa is small but comfortable, being able to have it reserved facilitates relaxation. All the staff at the facility are absolutely kind, helpful, friendly and very accommodating. Definitely to return!

Quel bel établissement logé au pied de l'Etna! Tout est beau et acceuillant, nous avons profité d'une magnifique chambre familiale toute blanche et épurée, avec une belle salle de bains lumineuse. Le petit déjeuner était également excellent, tout comme le service général. Les prix sont un peu excessifs pour une petite ville comme Linguaglossa, mais l'endroit en lui-même est parfait.
