Staff were very efficient and polite. Gave some good places to visit in Stresa. The room was very small, one small chair and no table. Had to use floor to place luggage and belonging. Not a nice room, regretted staying at this hotel!

Fantastic family hotel!
Really lovely family hotel set just back from the main promenade in Stresa. Beautiful gardens and a really well kept and well run hotel. The staff were all welcoming and friendly. The pool area is secluded and very well managed. Our room was perfect, with a large terrace that had views of the lake and was bathed in sunshine for most of the day. Perfect!

Nice mid-range hôtel. Close to Carciano lido to get to the islands. Room was clean and bed was great. Staff at frontdesk was not super friendly, but other staff persons were really welcoming. Breakfast was very nice (fruits, excellent capuccino, and great deal of breads, cornetto, pancakes)
