Casena Mongerrati

not welcoming, wifi and poor food, rude, sometimes rude staff, total disorganization, a hotel that is not suitable for, foreign citizens, but only local, beautiful view but abandoned as the phones don't even work. it would be advisable to change the staff

We were heading up to Parco delle Madonie to look at the deer, wild boar, golden eagles, etc (and were not disappointed) and were looking for a simple lunch stop en-route. Seeing a sign that simply said ‘living restaurant’ I swung into the drive way and approached a beautifully restored stone farmhouse with slight apprehension because it looked expensive. We were greeted by a very lovely young lady who turned out was our maitre’d , waitress, translator etc. It was a quiet very hot day and we had the restaurant almost to our ourselves -and what a restaurant it is made from wood and then glazed fully round to look out on the beautiful gardens, the mountain views and pool area. The menu was a wonderful Sicilian one although I opted for a fantastic tomahawk steak cooked rare with a lovely sweet and tangy balsamic glaze . The staff were amazing, the ambiance, the view and the food- top drawer. Oh and the price? Half what I was expecting. I left full and happy

English: Nightmare holiday.. we booked this location deceived by the good reviews!! We settled in and unfortunately we decided to have dinner there on site, we ordered: 1 square of black and white bread with raw ham, burrata and white caponata and slices of bread arrived with everything on top, then we ordered 1 slice of beef with parmesan fondue and salad and 1 skewer of sea bass with panko with white caponata and apricot sauce, respectively: slice of beef with red potatoes and potato breading and sea bream roll with red potatoes potato breading!! Everything completely wrong, with the risk of intolerances and allergies!! The next day at lunch I pointed out these inconsistencies to the waitress who reported to the chef and a voice from the kitchen reported: but we never put the salad in, the waitress came back and told me that the cousin was sick and therefore she had made a mistake!!, the same day I asked if it was possible to stay in the pool on the day of departure with lunch attached and I was told: of course no problem, you can stay as long as you want (without extra charge). At breakfast the next day at 08:30 the cakes were not ready, they arrived at 09:00, terrible service. On the day of check-out I found in the bill at full price the tagliata and the umbrina 22€ (instead of the gilt-head bream 19€), I pointed this out to her and the employee got annoyed and at the same time told me that to stay in the pool you have to pay a supplement (the day before we could have stayed tranquilizer and now you have to pay a supplement), I remember that the customer is always right and if you make a mistake you always have to try to make up for the customer not to be treated so badly!! For 160€ a night a treatment and service like that is shameful!! We ran away, I strongly advise against this place, terrible!!!! Vacanza da incubo.. prenotiamo questa location ingannati dalle belle recensioni!! Ci sistemiamo e purtroppo decidiamo di cenare lì in sede, ordiniamo: 1 quadrotto di pane bianco e nero con crudo, burrata e caponata bianca e arrivano fette di pane con con il tutto sopra, poi ordiniamo 1 tagliata di manzo con fonduta di grana e insalata e 1 spiedo di ombrina al panko con caponata bianca e salsa di albicocca, arrivano rispettivamente: tagliata di manzo con patate rosse e panage di patate e involtino di orata con patate rosse panage di patate!! Tutto completamente sbagliato, con il rischio di intolleranze e allergie!! Il giorno successivo a pranzo gli facevo notare queste incongruenze alla cameriera che riferisce allo chef e una voce della cucina riferisce: ma noi l insalata non l abbiamo mai messa, la cameriera rientra e mi riferisce che il cugino stava male e quindi aveva sbagliato!!, lo stesso giorno comunicavo se fosse stato possibile restare il giorno della partenza in piscina con annesso pranzo e mi veniva riferito: certo nessun problema, potete restare quanto volete (senza supplemento). A colazione il giorno dopo alle 08:30 le torte non erano
