The Su Gologone Experience Hotel is just a short drive east of Oliena and is well-placed for trips into the mountains where a great variety of wildlife can be seen. Oliena lies amidst vineyards, almond and olive groves overlooking the River Cedrino valley, and spreads along the side of the Corrasi mountain. Oliena is well known for its craftwork, especially in gold filigree and red coral and finely embroidered shawls, as well as for producing olives, excellent wine and exquisite cheeses.
The Su Gologone Experience Hotel is a charming hotel and has acquired a reputation for its excellent cuisine, such as the lunchtime barbecue, cooked on an open fire and the traditionally made bread cooked in the bread oven. The terraces are the perfect place to unwind and join in activities such as yoga and star gazing or simply to sample the different Sardinian grappas.
Built in a typical local style, the accommodation is in five linked buildings connected by a series of steps. Each guest room is unique, many featuring exquisite furniture, tapestries and fantastic colour schemes. A spring-fed swimming pool, outdoor whirlpool, an 18-hole mini-golf course and a tennis court are set in the lovely gardens.
The hotel also holds craft workshops and organised trips by four-wheel drive into the Barbagia mountains.
The hotel has 68 rooms (official rating 4 star). Citalia does not accept children at this hotel, however this is not an adult-only property.
Car hire is reccomended for this hotel.
Su Gologone’s Traditional Restaurant is the most famous restaurant in Sardinia for local food. It is spread across a terrace with stunning views and rooms decorated with Sardinian art and crafts. The scent of a slowly roasting meal over an open fire is bound to entice you in.
Open 8.30pm - 9pm (May to September)
During May to September, evening sessions are held twice a week in the King's Court which allow guests to immerse themselves in local traditions. These evenings are all about discovering the ancient techniques used to bake bread, spit-roast meat and create craft pieces. The scene is set as if time has stood still, with 17th century stone columns and bricked floors, beautiful wooden tables and brightly coloured plates made from enamelled iron. Guests are welcomed in the traditional fashion; by torchlight, with a carpet of wild herbs on the ground that, when walked upon, offers up an intense perfume.
Open 8.30pm - 9pm (May to September)
The Bread's Nest is an ancient oven set within the hotel where guests can watch local women wearing typical Oliena dress prepare various types of bread, including 'panecarasau' (a crunchy flatbread) that is offered to all those present once it is cooked.
