MORE INFORMATION

Location

While the road leading to the hotel can get busy - particularly in the summer - once you're inside, the atmosphere is calm and relaxed. The views of the lake islands are sublime.

The hotel is just under 1km from Stresa, on the lakefront road.

By plane: London to Milan Malpensa takes under 2 hours and Manchester to Milan Malpensa takes 2 hours 15 minutes, after which, it's an hour's drive to the hotel. Free on-site parking available. Book flights to Milan.

Style

A Belle Epoque mansion with Liberty-style interiors, the décor is very Italian - think marble columns, Venetian floors and wooden antiques. The hotel is still family run, creating a warm and welcoming ambience. The owners' collection of objets d'art from around the world add to the grandeur.

Service & Facilities

Facilities include an outdoor swimming pool, private beach and spa. Service is professional and discreet; staff are welcoming and attentive, and happy to organise activities and excursions, from helicopter tours to private cooking classes. Private boat tours and island visits leave from the hotel jetty and there's a free shuttle to Stresa.
