The hotel results from a careful and accurate restoration that considered the particular archaeological site in which it is located and the old Norman castle following 1062. "Il Castello" offers an exclusive atmosphere between history and culture. Guests are welcomed in an environment of refinement, courtesy and hospitality. The 12 rooms, including three suites with a fireplace and panoramic terrace, are in the name of comfort and good taste. The restaurant offers good Madonita cuisine with tasty local delicacies and typical recipes. Immerse yourself in the restaurant's warm atmosphere housed in the ancient theatre. The exclusive location has been created inside the old theatre of the Norman Castle, from which the venue takes its name. The menu proposals follow the alternation of the seasons and what nature offers us; in particular, we use the km0 vegetables that our family cultivates in respect of nature in the Masseria S'Elia of our property in Petralia Sottana. Among our specialities, we list some dishes that cannot be renounced. The appetizer of the castle contains an explosion of flavours of our territory, such as cured meats and cheeses, omelettes and seasonal vegetables, pasta with black pig from the Madonie, cooked over a low flame with S'Elia tomato puree at km0 of our production, pasta with vegetables and legumes at km0, the pork knuckle cooked in a wood oven for eight hours, a vast choice of Madonite meats cooked on the grill such as sliced veal and pork steak, and finally our homemade Sicilian desserts as per tradition. Another speciality you can't give up is our gourmet hamburgers, prepared with our long-leavening bread and a selection of Madonita meat. Our pizza comes from an extended maturation dough, with a minimum of 72 hours up to 100 hours; our blend of selected flours is composed of ancient Sicilian grains, wholemeal flour and type 0 with toasted bran, with a high hydration, and the final result is a light and digestible pizza.
