Our GPS in the car got us close then some walking did the rest. It was worth the effort Our host was warm and helpful. The room very comfortable and the next day massage even better. We had dinner at the Michelin star rated restaurant and it was definitely special

Shalai resort has figured out how to serve their customers from both the front and back of the house. The front desk staff was exceptionally prompt, professional and flexible when I needed to adjust my bookings. This was followed by an outstanding meal in their Michelin starred dining room. The wine card arrived to the table as a large , albeit overwhelming list. The server arrived with a fantastic knowledge of the wines and suggested a perfect bottle of Sicilian wine which aligned to our description of flavor profile. The meal itself was perfect and none of the courses in the tasting menu disappointed us. My friend ordered the “meat” option, I chose “fish.” The kitchen allows you to pick different menus which is also a nice touch. I’ve been many places where the tasting menu is a must for the entire table. My favorite dish was broken angel hair pasta in a fish broth with local red shrimp. The shrimp tasted similar to top quality sushi grade ami ebi. Breakfast the next morning was included in the room price and had a wide variety of food on offer : pastries, fruit and optional cooked dish from the kitchen. The rooms were minimalist in style as shown on their website. For the price point, they were exactly what I expected to see. I will be returning to the property during this same stay in Sicily for 2 additional nights. I would not hesitate to recommend it for its great service across the board and high quality food.

The restaurant is wonderful and highly recommended. We all had the pescatarian tasting menu which was fantastic. However, the hotel could use some work. In particular, no one in our party ever did get hot water out of their showers; the water wasn't cold, but it never got hot either. The rooms are a bit worn out as well. We also tried to order breakfast off the menu in the morning but after an hour waiting for eggs, we gave up in order to catch flights out of Catania. Worth a stay just for the restaurant, but the hotel seems to prioritize the appearance of luxury over practicality.

Un ristorante incantevole situato all’interno di un magnifico palazzo storico. Il personale è estremamente cordiale e preparato, rendendo piacevole anche una chiacchierata su vini e piatti. Lo chef propone creazioni che esaltano gli ingredienti del territorio, combinandoli in modo impeccabile. La carta dei vini, più simile a un libro, offre una selezione vastissima. È stata un’esperienza straordinaria per il mio compleanno: mi sono sentita accolta, coccolata e completamente a mio agio.

L'hotel è ubicato all'interno di un palazzo storico di notevole fascino, particolarmente evidente nel tetto affrescato della sala relax. La stanza a me riservata era ampia, tuttavia molto essenziale, essendo presente un piccolo incavo adibito ad armadio, occupato anche dal mobile contenente frigo/cassaforte, che però consentiva essenzialmente di appendere cappotti con un ripiano in alto: l'ho trovato poco funzionale per chi avrebbe la necessità di disfare la valigia. Analogamente, in camera c'era solo un tavolino, una sedia ed uno sgabello, sarebbe stato utile un ripiano di appoggio, ma anche un banale cestino per i rifiuti, e sarebbe stato gradito per una struttura del suo livello anche trovare dell'acqua a disposizione, oltre quella a pagamento in frigo. Doccia ampia (ma il piatto avrebbe bisogno di manutenzione), letti spaziosi, con biancheria morbidissima, ma il mio materasso era leggermente infossato rispetto al mio gusto. Il ristorante stellato, così come la colazione, meritano da soli il costo della visita. I piatti dello chef sono gustosi, ricercati, saporiti, ed il personale di sala riesce perfettamente a descrivere il pensiero che sta alla base di ogni pietanza. Cantina estremamente ampia, com'è giusto che sia per uno stellato. La Spa è piccolina ma confortevole, poterla avere riservata agevola il relax. Tutto il personale della struttura è assolutamente gentile, disponibile, cordiale e molto accomodante. Da tornare sicuramente!

Struttura bellissima, antica e ristrutturata con design moderno ma di certo non posso dire che sia stata un'esperienza positiva. Ci hanno dato una stanza al secondo piano ma la struttura non possiede ascensore. Abbiamo dovuto salire da soli i bagagli con un ragazzino ed una bimba di 4 anni. La stanza che ci hanno dato puzzava di muffa ed infatti il bagno ne era pieno alle pareti.

Ho festeggiato il mio compleanno in questa splendida struttura d’epoca (come me ) ! Scherzi a parte ho potuto approfittare della piccola ma confortevole spa per un percorso rilassante e concludere la giornata con una cena deliziosa dello chef Giovanni ! Colazione all’altezza del resto con i gustosi croissants e le focaccine per gli amanti del salato ! Consiglio vivamente una visita per un weekend tra il mare e la neve !

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.
