Hotel Su Gologone

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights with a tour group. The hotel does not know whether to be an art gallery or a hotel. It is packed with clutter. The property is not for the mobility challenged ??? the property is large and there are lots of steps. There is no lift. Every room is different. Ours had a bedroom with a small sitting room attached. There were no windows in the bedroom ??? a small window in the sitting room. The bathroom was large. There was a shower over the bath, but you had to hold the shower head in your hand and the water went everywhere in the process. We also had a roof terrace which we shared with our next door neighbour. It was a quiet spot to relax, but we had to be very careful getting up there, as the steps were extremely steep and sloped backwards. We had 3 breakfasts in the hotel. It was buffet and was on a pleasant terrace looking out over the landscape. Lovely position. Breakfast selection was pretty good. You cannot get breakfast before 8am. The first night in the hotel we had drinks and nibbles on an outside terrace above the main hotel building. We were put right off the nibbles because they were already all spread out when we arrived ??? the food was not covered and it was crawling with flies, ants and wasps. After the drinks and nibbles we went back down to the main hotel building and the restaurant for dinner. The restaurant is not open until 8pm for dinner. There must have been a lot of wastage as there was far too much food. A vast amount of meat with little vegetables. Our third night in the hotel we again had dinner in the hotel, after a bread making demo followed by wine tasting. There are a number of activities around the hotel which you can book, such as embroidery. There is also a swimming pool. We were taken out into the surrounding mountains during our stay here. The area is quite scenic. A very different experience and not one we would choose. I think you either love or hate this type of hotel. Most of our group were not very impressed. Cannot comment on price as it was included in our package.

This is one fine "experience hotel." The accommodations are pristine and very memorable. The restaurant is authentic and probably serves as good a meal as you will enjoy in all of Italy. The location is great for those of you who want to enjoy the mountainous part of Sardinia as the spring (Su Cologne) is within walking distance while the other mountainous locations are within a quick drive. Visiting the coast is about 30 minutes away with breathtaking views to hold your attention along with the hair-pin turns as you travel from the mountains to the coast. The staff is gracious. The pool is wonderful. The wine is . . . well, Sardinian. Its all good. The grounds are perfect.
