We stayed only 7 days this trip in one of very favorite hotels. It always saddens me to read unfavorable reviews. This hotel is a gem. We intend to return next May for a longer stay. Excellent staff and management.

We loved this hotel’s spacious room and excellent restaurant. Highly recommend the massage services as well. Great Lake view facing the Borromeo Palace and gardens which you can easily take a boat to and is well worth the visit. Be sure to ask for room with a bathtub if you like a luxurious bubble bath at the end of a long touring day.

A luxury hotel that pretty much delivers with excellent public and guest rooms and a generally efficient staff. The one exception to that is breakfast service which is a little offhand in greeting and seating, thereafter it’s buffet.
The Hotel is well situated a gentle 5-10 minute stroll into Stresa centre where there is a reasonable choice of restaurants and the ferry boat departure point.
The outdoor pool is massive (and deep) with poolside service.
Parking is free as is a good internet service.
Where the hotel scores is in the way it has maintained guest rooms to a high standard with generous sized rooms and balconies - take a lake view room for the best facilities.
One down side was the noise from the kitchens below our first floor room - not bad enough to prompt a move but annoying, so go for a higher floor and enjoy a grand hotel.

What's not to like - probably the best food in Stresa - €56 for a well balanced and deliciously cooked three course menu. Views are as to die for as the food. There is a choice of two for each course - between us we had all 6 options - all good. Menu changes daily. Wine reasonably priced. Waiters all very polite but not overly so. Overall our best meal of our holiday.

Do ask for a terrace table - but these cannot be guaranteed.
