As mentioned, the noisy water pipes were a little irritating, leading us to put earplugs in when we slept. Other than that, no other complaints.

The check-in was easy and the staff very welcoming and helpful. We hired a car drove to the hotel, so we could park for free at their sister hotel just along the road. Very easy. The room had great views, although we did notice that the water pipes were very noisy when our neighbours had showers. A minor issue, but worth pointing out. The swimming pool they mention is again at the sister property, which is a beautiful hotel with lovely facilities and less than five minutes walk along the road. The hotel is very well located and within an easy walk to the jetties where boats and water taxis pick up. The town of Stresa literally on your doorstep.

Room a little small and twin bed option was all we could get, but it didn’t matter given all the other excellent features of this beautiful old style hotel

Fabulous location to transport to the lake and boats and to shops and restaurants. Staff were exceptionally helpful with recommendations and directions to help where more specific knowledge was required. Lucia (front desk) was a standout person in her language skills, helpful attitude and pleasant personality. The breakfast was great from the fabulous coffee made to order and tasteful local cold its, cheeses, fruit and bread… we also had a table overlooking the lake. Perfect memory. We will return.

There were no tea or coffee making facilities in our room which was disappointing. Would have liked a lake- view bedroom!

The building was very luxurious and we had lovely view of the lake at meal times. The staff were excellent -extremely friendly,courteous and always helpful. Food was very good.

The noise of the extractor in the bathroom was a bit loud.

The room was exceptionally nice, clean and comfortable, with breath-taking views of the lake. The large terrace equipped with sunbeds, table and chairs. Breakfast was very good. Staff were very helpful.

Front desk staff could have been a little more helpful in getting around locally. They did not provide much info and we pointed out a discrepancy that they should have thanked us for immensely but nothing was said. I may consider staying at another hotel next time we visit Stresa. The people in town were wonderful and provided the info we needed. (Again it was not the front desk staff to help)

Location and view from balcony

The room sound proofing could have been better.

We enjoyed our top-floor Balcony room overlooking the lake ( room 546 ). We sat out there at every opportunity and fortunately the weather was wonderful. The dinning experience, two dinners and breakfast each morning, was fantastic and wine was very good and reasonably priced. Carmelo and the team, including Natalia, were fantastic with a welcoming smile on every occasion. The lactation was great, walking distance to everything including the boats and old township.

Shower deflector not long enough to keep the water from going on the floor. Seemingly no insulation in the walls, as the first night the people next to us might as well have been in our room. Luckily they weren't there the next night.

Breakfast was good, selections okay. Service was friendly and efficient. Beautiful view of the lake from our balcony. Great lake-front park to walk in. Property showing its age, but it provided an easy walk to everywhere we wanted to go, including the ferry to the islands just down the street. Great light blocking curtains. Friendly front desk attendants. Parking was free, a short walk away.

There was a very noisy disco nearby.

Beautifully appointed hotel close to lake and ferries.

It’s a little thing. Water ran onto the floor from the shower over the bath as the shower screen was not long enough.

Location was fabulous. Staff helpful. Room had great space too. Would love to return

Breakfast was fine, but wasn’t amazing.

Hotel has a vintage feel, which was somehow appropriate for the area. Really great location plus gave access to the pool at the hotel down the road (which was lovely).

Took adapter for uk plug and wouldn’t fit in bedroom sockets. Luckily it fitted into bathroom one. Had fitted in other sockets in Milan hotel I stayed in. Sometimes reception staff not overly welcoming, but not unhelpful.

Fabulous views from room (paid extra for lake view), beautiful furnishings, comfortable room.

Breakfast could have had a bit more variety ie: good sausages and fried tomato. Bed mattress in both rooms were very hard. Ended up with sore hips and shoulders. Room 314 was very cold. Had to get an extra blanket. Room 602 was fine. Warm because it got the daily sun exposure. Aircon - had to ask front desk to turn it on there so you could use it in your rooms. It only worked on cooling, does not warm rooms so that is why we needed an extra blanket to keep warm in bed

Staff very helpful with every enquire. Main ding room staff great, Rafa attended to every need. Menu was good, loved the duck, veal, fish, sweets variety great. Pasta a bit too aldante for us. Size of servings pleantiful. Hotel local and views from both 602 and 314 superb. Loved our stay and would come again. Apart from issues in “we didn’t like” section below would highly recommend this hotel.

Stayed in September 2023

No adapters for the electric plugs and plastic cups in the rooms. Some staff were not as friendly as others and as we were in the newer building we weren’t offered to breakfast in the much fancier red building unless we asked

Great Location. View from our Balcony room.
