Breakfast was good with good selections.
Location is great.
Staff is very helpful and polite
The chair in the room does not have feet. When moved over the tile floor it is really noisy.

Fantastic location with an absolutely breathtaking view of Lake Orta and Isola San Giulio. The room was simple but very comfortable, the staff was very kind and welcoming and the restaurant offered, besides the delicious meals, one of the most spectacular views I’ve ever seen. The old town is only a 10-minute walk from the hotel. All in all, a clear recommendation for a wonderful stay in Orta San Giulio.

The hotel is in the most fantastic position close to the historic centre and with a restaurant terrace overlooking the lake and the island. Our room had a generous balcony with the same beautiful view. The room and en-suite were clean and the bed comfortable. The restaurant was good and the reception team were friendly and helpful.
The decor of the common parts of the hotel is tired and needs updating. The room was simple with few creature comforts. The restaurant staff while not actively unfriendly were a bit brusque. We last came to Lake Orta some 35 years ago - we have moved on but this hotel feels a bit stuck in a time warp,

Classic family-run hotel. Charming and comfortable, this hotel offers true hospitality.
Great breakfast on a beautiful veranda, wonderful pool, attentive and accommodating staff (finding a spot for me to store a rented mountain bike, working to help extend our stay when very busy).
My kids struggled with the keyed lock on their room, but figured it out.

The hotel location was perfect for a relaxing stay in Orta - 5 minutes walk from everywhere. The view from our room over the lake was stunning and with both breakfast and dinner being on the open terrace overlooking the lake it couldn't have been better. The swimming pool was a bonus: good for swimming or sunbathing.

The property is fantastically located and has brilliant views
The property is quite dated, I imagine it was remodelled in the 90’s. The staff were all helpful and friendly, but a lady who I think is the owner or manager made some strange remarks to us as we left.

8.0 / 10.0
The hotel is in a good location, easy walking distance to the lake. Ample secure parking. Very helpful staff on reception.
Room with small balcony overlooking the gardens.
There should be a 'No ball games' sign in the gardens and this should be monitored. We were unfortunate to have to see and hear an unruly inconsiderate family playing with balls and destroying the beautiful shrubbery in the garden beneath our balcony. They even turned a wrought iron table on it's side to allow the children to climb on it. The pool was not open. Expensive restaurant.

Lots. Great position. Easy walk to Old Centre. wonderful view from room and terrace. Very comfortable room. On premises parking was rare and so convenient. Outstanding restaurant and wine list. We were there for 4 nights and we didn’t even consider going anywhere else for dinner. Excellent breakfast. Great pool. Very helpful and friendly staff.
Nothing. It is a 3 star hotel that punches well above its weight
