Su Gologone

Sometimes a good experience is the sum of its parts and when they all work together you’re happy. Su Gologone is a feast for the senses from the colours of the flowers, fabrics and works of art to the scents and smells of the vegetation and the herbs and spices used in the cooking. It all seems to work. Our room was super with a view over the countryside and I enjoyed an invigorating swim in the pool. In the restaurants the buffets of antipasti and for breakfast were excellent. An all round positive experience.

Lovely hotel, great location. Requires a quality vehicle. Magic within nature. Features an excellent pool, excellent restaurant. Pleasant rooms. Great breakfast, in a special atmosphere with great views.

We stayed here for our honeymoon - lovely hotel, pool filthy however, and a bit 'shabby chic' in general, but they disappointingly didn't even mention once it was our honeymoon. Maybe they get lots of people like us, but would have been nice to mention it at least as it was a really special holiday for us, and they were told many times about it being a special trip!

This is in no way a luxury experience. Personally, I found it a more similar to an overgrown campsite or how I would imagine a yoga retreat. Our room was uncomfortable and had very little natural light. Staff were a mix - some very friendly some the opposite. The swimming pool and terrace was not clean when we were there. Some people may like this style of hotel, but need to be aware of what kind of hotel it really is before coming. We left soon as we could.

This hotel is not a 4 star hotel, it's hardly a 3 star in our opinion. The rooms are worn and dated and not very clean and although the staff is friendly and kind, the service is bad because there is no place to hangout and have drinks whenever you want it. The only beautiful terrace they have is closed for almost the whole day. And despite off all the chairs and cushions on the property, there is no one to serve you a drink, or have a bite. We booked a junior suite but the first one they offered us, had no privacy at all. The bath was outside on the terrace, but only with a small canvas separated from our neighbours! Their bath was also on their terrace (one meter from our bathtub) and we heard our neighbours while sitting in the bathtub. We think it is ridiculous to offer this as a room with a terrace when you can't even sit there in privacy. We asked for another room: It had a HUGE bathtub in the room, but no shower. Unbelievable we think. We told the staff and they were very kind and they chose another room for us. So on to the other room: it was a big room with a separate shower but very dated and worn, and the bathtub was outside, but the stopper didn't work so no bath for us. But we didn't complain about that since we had a working shower. So in this room we stayed although the heater didn't work, and there was hardly any wifi or 3G or 4G. Really extremely annoying and not the way a 4 star hotel should be. Breakfast was only until 10 o'clock but since this holiday was a relaxing holiday for us, we asked where we could have breakfast if we'd be later, and we didn't mind to pay for it. That was no problem, there were several places to go and have breakfast and snacks and lunch, so we were told. The next day at 10:30 we went to the place where we were supposed to be able to have our late breakfast. It wasn't possible, they just had cake. We asked for help at the staff, and they were very kind and said it was difficult but they could get us some cookies and packaged toast and yoghurt. Not a real breakfast we think. Somewhat later we went to the place where we thought we could get some lunch. But now we heard that the beautiful panorama terrace only opened after 3 and it was only 2 o'clock so we had to go somewhere else. So we went (our last option!) to the place near the swimmingpool to have our lunch. No one was around. We waited for 15 minutes and had to go all the way back to the reception, to ask before some one came, and finally could make us some lunch. And although the swimmingpool is more than 70 meters away and divided by trees and bushes, we still had plastic plates and plastic wine glasses.. It felt as if we were camping. The restaurant was okay, very basic and every day the same food, but okay. In the room was a mini bar but no snacks in it, but thank god there was a nespresso machine, so we had coffee. Overall, it was a very sad and depressing atmosphere, and we really wanted to leave so we checked out a night earlier.. We travel a lot, and we've stayed in all kinds of hotel all over the world, but we have never ever left a hotel earlier than planned. The worst part to us? The lack of cell service (I'm not talking about no WiFi, but no service or reach At All), and the fact that there was no real possibility to have a drink or snack whenever or wherever you want. So although we must say that the staff was friendly and kind, you don't want to go to the reception all the time in order to ask for a snack or a drink. I'm afraid we'll not recommend this hotel to our friends..
