A well maintained older property with lots of charm and character. Excellent location on the strip and very helpful and competent staff. Basic breakfast. Try to get a room above 2nd floor for the view if facing lake.

The Hotel Milan Speranza Au Lac is a 4 star hotel located by the lake boulevard. The hotel is a reliable choice in the slightly lower end of 4 star hotels. We had a nice two night stay at the hotel. The room and the bathroom were as expected but we were slightly disappointed as there was no balcony and the view was to the building on the opposite side of the street. The breakfast was of good standard and contained everything you can expect. Also the service at breakfast was of unusually high standard. We also had one dinner at the hotel and were pleased with both the food and especially the service, which was excellent. We would happily stay there again.

Visited the 2nd week of September. The hotel is ideally located to visit the other islands and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Our room was very accommodating for 3 adults and it faced the lake with a beautiful view. The breakfast was very good and the hosts were very friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

First I’ll point out what I’d say are obvious to most stays in Italy, just because I think it’s good information for Americans like us. A lot of people on these apps leave negative feedback for these reasons, but just know that we’re in Italy and these factors are just about everywhere here. 1) there are steps to get to your room, sometimes a lot of them. 2) a lot of places don’t have elevators (this one DOES) 3) the showers are small! I’m 6’4” and 240lbs… I fit, but it’s not like home, lol. This place has a full size tub/ shower, but no curtain. Okay now that that’s over with, here’s our actual review. Location is perfect! Right across the street from the ferries to the islands. Plenty of food and shopping really close. Room was nice and had a balcony that faced the lakes, awesome!!! Check in was painless, but parking is offsite. It was close enough though. Everything about the hotel and room was as expected and nice. Our big complaint though is that they were doing construction both mornings we were there. The walls are thin and it woke us up both mornings… too early! On checkout I was asked about our stay and reported that issue to them, but the lady didn’t seem to care how disruptive it was or how inconvenient it was for us. I’m sure this isn’t always the case, so I’d still say it’s a good place to stay, but I wish we could’ve been better taken care of due to the construction. Like don’t put people in rooms next door to rooms you’re remodeling!!!

We had a lovely stay; wound up extending an extra night.Our triple room was on the small side for the 2 of us, as we had anticipated from the photos. That was compensated by the many positives: Excellent service from the staff. Spectacular view from our room, appreciated the blackout shades. Superb friendly attentive service during the extensive breakfast buffet - delicious breads, pastries, healthy cereals and yogurt, enjoyed having cappuccinos every day. Very convenient location to promenade walk, the ferry, charming town centre and restaurants. We did not mind the short walk to where our car was parked; and appreciated that the parking was included.

8.0 / 10.0

The hotel is perfectly located across from the park and ferry stations. There was also a little train car available for a drive around the city. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

8.0 / 10.0

The corner room was very good, newer door to the balcony and window were quite effective in quieting the street and restaurant noise from below. The breakfast was good for European standards, excellent for US standards. Only ‘negatives’ were- parking is at the Regina Palace, a few mins walk, and limited parking during events like weddings. The room key was on a heavy weight, not the newer electronic keys being used, but we just left it with the front desk when we went out for the day. Would be nice to have hot tea and coffee in the lobby at night.

It’s the best location if you are visiting Stresa for the first time. The ferry can take you anywhere and just across the street. Can board the airport bus right outside the hotel. Great restaurant on site. Excellent service and great breakfast. We went to the pool one time and is very relaxing.

The hotel was located perfect next to the ferry boats, so the location was execellent. The room had a good size, the bathroom also. The bed need a mattress topper, because sleeping on it for 3-4 nights is a bit rough. The breakfast was good, had everything you want in a breakfast. Plus for brown bread. The personal was polite. I wish there was a fridge in the room. I would stay here again.

This is a fantastic place to stay on Lago Maggiore. Right in the heart of town. AND you get access to parking and the pool at the Regina Palace. A big bonus. I definitely would return!

There was no swiming pool direct at the hotel. The parkingplace also was aproximately 200 m away.

Perfect location and both room and breakfast was also okay. However both pool and parking were in another hotel - a good idea to mention this in the hotel description to avoid any misunderstandings.
