I loved the remote location. Very scenic. You need a car to get here as ot is off the beaten track but we'll worth the visit and exceptional value for money. We were there in mid September and availed of the out door pool and although it was cold it was very refreshing and a great way to get sorted after a late night. Ellie and her compatriots ate very accomodatating and the food in the restaurant is excellent.
Hotel L'Approdo offers a private beach and beautiful views of Lake Orta, and is just a few minutes' drive from Orta San Giulio and the A26 Motorway. Parking and Wi-Fi are free.

Stunning location overlooking the lake and mountain, our room was clean and spacious, the bed was comfortable.
The hotel is definitely quite dated but kept quite clean so I didn’t find it to be too much of an issue. Personnel were very friendly and helpful!
We didn’t use the swimming pool or any facilities so no comments on that.
Located in Omegna's centre and overlooking Lake Orta, the Croce Bianca offers simple, en suite rooms. Each features a satellite TV, and lake or city views. Breakfast buffet is served until 10:00.
Set in Orta San Giulio's main square, right next to the dock for boats to San Giulio Island, Hotel Aracoeli offers elegant rooms mixing original architectural features with contemporary design.
Piccolo Hotel Olina offers unique rooms in different buildings of the medieval village of Orta San Giulio. The Piazzetta square and ferries to San Giulio Island are a 2-minute walk away.

The hotel is quite modest when it comes to the exterior and decor, but very clean and welcoming because of the friendly and helpful staff and great food. Dinner was excellent and one of the best we had during our 2,5 week stay in Italy (amongst which were 4 star hotels). Good beds and great breakfast.
Hotel Monte Mazzoccone has a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Quarna Sopra. With free WiFi, this 3-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk.

We stayed in Alzo, part of Pella apparently, but its own little village up the hill somewhat on the west side of Lago d'Orta. The square looks over the lake: fantastic view with a small village feeling. Post office, lodging choices, church, dining (Osteria del Gallo), bank, all a short drive down to Pella or up more to the homes and sights high above.

Take the ferry on Lake Orta across to the island for a closer look. It really is a very pretty area, one of the best kept secrets among the Italian Lakes - everyone has heard of Como and Garda, but all the others are worthy of a short trip too - you can easily cover Orta in a day. We drove around it about three times in all, went to a market in Orta town, bagged a great handmade belt that we had seen in The Grand Dino Hotel for 198 euros for 85 euros, had a nice meal in Pella at La Pizzeria near the ferry stop. There are lots of beautiful views across the Lake and along the mountains, churches and mansion houses overhanging the sides of the mountains displaying all their beauty and grandeur seemingly out of reach. Spectacular in sunlight or moonlight.

Many lake resorts are very commercialised.
Many lake resorts are very commercialised. Pella isn't - yet it is still vibrant in summer due to the presence of the Pizzeria, Restaurant, Gelateria and the boat for travelling to and from Orta San Giulio and the Orta island. It's a small place, but it is really nice. It is also easy to catch boats to other parts of the lake.

Small quiet place!
Small quiet place! Still there are supermarkets where you can buy what you need. We are not pasta lovers and it is served everywhere, so we cooked ourselves.
We didn’t use public transport, so I really recommend renting a car or motorcycle to get to the places.
The best things to do here is swimming, kanoe, sup surfing and of course taking part in Oceanman Lago d’Orta!

A quieter town than the other side of the lake, with less traffic, fewer tourists, and lots to see -- scenery, historic architecture, an amazing cemetery -- in the hillsides and along the water, Pella is very walkable and compact. On a busy Saturday night, we were fortunate to score dinner outdoors at Taverna Antico Agnello, in a historic villa across and above the lake, thanks to last-minute reservations made by our host.
Pella is lovely. Two fabulous restaurants (a tasting menu for 30 EURO) and a lovely cafe that did great crepe.
We enjoyed the peacefulness of the place. Looking over at the island and the town opposite. Ferries are easy to use. Truly relaxing and a hidden secret.
Hosts were lovely too. Limited English (apart from their son) but made us very welcome.
Our second stay at La Séca was as we remembered it. We really enjoy the location (lake orta, less touristy) and the hotel with its charming interior and atmosphere. The owner is so kind and helpful and her little helper, the dog panchi is really cute.
This time we had the room with a balcony towards the mountain which was super nice!
beautiful location, near the lake, in peaceful Pella. Majority of the staff were incredibly helpful and attentive to us. Breakfast was good, but lacked a bit of variety. our room on the second floor had stunning views over the lake towards Orta San Giulio. Overall a great place to stay.
Host and service lady are very nice, even prepared a chocolate cake for us. The house is cozy, nicely decorated and a unique experience. Location is calm with incredible view over the lake, still not far from Pella and a perfect starting point for hikes. Try it out, you will not regret it!
+ Great view for Lago di Orta from the room
+ Nice and helpful host
+ Good breakfast
+ Private parking
+ Town of Pella itself is very convenient if you want to go across the lake to Isola di San Giulio and Orta.
Quite a friendly hosts, they made eggs, even though it was not in breakfast menu.
You defenitely should have a car to travel around or book a boat in advance in Pella in adavnce (no certificate for boat needed)
I had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. Sabina and Javier are great hosts. The restaurant is outstanding, offering authentic Piemontese dishes and a good selection of local wine. Definitely worth a visit!
very nice hotel. high value amenities. top location. nice and helpful staff. very nice breakfast, nice restaurant with good chef. nice pool - although to public as in front of reception.
