BelgiumWe had such an amazing and the most pleasant experience! It was so wonderful that we decided to extend our stay - that's how much we enjoyed it!
This hotel is an absolute gem - great location, in the centrum of tiny Angera on the Lake Maggiore - wonderful views all day long, especially from rooftop terras of the breakfast restaurant. Just magnificent!
Very clean, comfortable room, great bed and shower.
There is also an award worthy restaurant that serves the most delicious food ever - I warmly recommend it to everyone.
Furthermore, the staff of the hotel as well as the staff of the restaurant is incredible, they do their absolute best to make you feel welcome, comfortable and all-around pampered.
Hotel offers free use of bicycles - convenient and such a lovely experience to leisurely bike around town and the lake.
If you are coming by car - there are plenty of spaces to park in front - some free and some with extra charge.
All in all - superb!

It is a boutique style hotel so there are not very many guests. You get a feeling that you are almost there alone and it is very well staffed.

FAQs about hotels in Lago Maggiore - Italy
A Breath of Fresh Air
Italy’s longest lake, Lake Maggiore lies at the foot of the southern Alps and extends into Switzerland in the north. Most of the Lake Maggiore hotels in Switzerland are in Locarno and neighbouring Ascona. Surrounded by vineyards, Locarno houses a 12th-century castle and an innovative representation of the solar system which extends as far as Tegna village.
Also in Swiss territory is Brissago, starting point for boat trips to the Brissago Islands whose botanical gardens grow coffee plants. Over the Italian border is beautiful Cannobio in Piedmont, where brightly coloured buildings overlook the small harbour.
South is Ghiffa, home to a UNESCO World Heritage-listed pilgrimage mountain. Just beyond is Verbania, a laidback city lining 2 of Maggiore Lake’s shores. Across the water, the largest of the Borromean Islands – Isola Bella – has a palace and stepped gardens offering wonderful lake views. Home to the largest concentration of Lake Maggiore hotels, Stresa is a lovely town and departure point for boat trips to these islands.
Near the lake’s southern tip is Arona, while less well-known Lake Maggiore resorts in Lombardy include Angera (known for wines and a medieval castle), sleepy Ranco, and Luino with its popular weekly market.
Booking.com has a fabulous range of apartments, B&Bs and hotels by Lake Maggiore covering all these resorts and more.

So clean and quiet and tranquil. The pool is amazing for kids, it has a soft bottom and lots of shallow area to play in. The food at the restaurants is good. The store and laundry are convenient and our kids loved the play ground. You can walk into the town of Feriolo. It's a very pretty area.
Everything was very clean and the staff was very helpful.

Verbania is a really good base for a stay on Lake Maggiore.
Verbania is a really good base for a stay on Lake Maggiore. It has 2 parts - Intra where the main ports are, and Pallanza. There are lots of boats leaving and arriving every day at Intra, both passenger-only and ferries with cars, so very useful for exploring other parts of the lake.
Intra has a nice sea front and an old town with little courtyards and cafes dotted all over it. The highlight of Pallanza is Villa Taranto, the botanic gardens. Well worth a visit.

A small place by the lake, but the shore is more or less private, so you are limited to the part of the shore that is in the camp, The place has many shops, which are more or less empty or already run down, also there is only one restaurant , which is open all day, but there is a lot of traffic. Also, there is a lot of garbage on the street. In general, you get the feeling that they had big plans for tourism, but they did not succeed.

Ispra doesn't have much of anything going on.
Ispra doesn't have much of anything going on. Lakeside is not too exciting. Nothing much in the tiny town. Highlight was the pizzeria, and even then we kept getting told off for getting there too late. Not a great hub to get to other areas because you have to traverse some super narrow roads to get to Laveno or to the west side of the lake. If I had it to do again, I would stay in Cannobio or Sestra.

I have been going to Cannobio for nearly thirty years it is a little gem on Lago Maggiore and is the essence if an Italian town. There are not many English or UK tourists, which makes it good to practise Italian. It sits on the lake with an amazing Sunday market and emits a feeling of comfort and home for me I should say its horrible to keep it a little secret but it is a great place to visit with amazing restaurants and good quality food with prices for all budgets and campsites too

Stresa was such a beautiful place to visit.
Stresa was such a beautiful place to visit. Don't miss the Terre Borromeo or the Prosecco at Enoteca Da Giannino!
We spent 4 nights there (girls trip) - perfect time to slow down after 9 days of travel/site-seeing. One day for the islands, one day for a visit to another town on the lake and one day for wandering in Stresa. Excellent dinners at La Rosa dei Venti and Osteria Mercato.
Cocktail prosecco at Enoteca Da Giannino wine bar.
Easy access by train, however - not so easy to locate a taxi from the train to your lodging. (Uber is super expensive, but there is a taxi service you can reserve for your ride back to the train station.)
Skip Como - come to Stresa!
