"The picturesque thousand-year-old town of Linguaglossa stands at the foot of the northern slope of Mount Etna, and within one of its most distinctive 18th-century buildings is Shalai Resort, a boutique hotel that mixes Liberty-style ornament with contemporary furniture and décor. As a lodging it’s more than worthy of note on its own terms, with a little spa and close proximity to the volcano. But its most salient attribute is certainly its starred restaurant." - Tablet Hotels
