This hotel has been family run since the 19th century and offers a complete refuge to people like us who traveled by car and to hikers and those traveling by bike. An ample cafeteria style breakfast is included. As an extra you can sign up nightly for a five-course family style dinner with an amazing local wine list. The food is excellent, served family style with the rest of the guests and provides an opportunity for cultural exchange. Our GPS led us down to the front door of this venue on a street that was so narrow we wondered if we'd get stuck. The road was a two-way road, so be prepared. When we arrived, a large solid wood locked doorway greeted us. Once we pushed the access button, we were greeted by the current matriarch of the family who spoke some English and showed us to our rooms. The room was good sized, looked over the courtyard, but had no refrigeration facilities and was not airconditioned. However, it was comfortable in every other way. There was no laundry service or other fancy amenities, but if you wanted a little ice you could go to the kitchen and ask for it. Although Santu Lussurgiu may not be a city you would go out of you way to visit, it is an interesting and historic cityThe location of this hotel allows travel to many interesting places in Sardinia for bikers, hikers and those like us who explore by car. We enjoyed the family, those that waited on us and the hotel very much. We would love to visit again, but would not do so in the summer
