Beautiful setting next to the lake

I was impressed by the service and the setting (right next to the lake). It was peaceful, scenic, and close to other places of interest in the area, e.g. Sacro Monte.

Excellent

We were in this hotel for 4 nights. It is an ideal place to stay if you are touring the lakes in the West of Italy with a car. It is close to the highway and bordering the Varese lake. We were in room 212 on the lake side and all was perfect. The hotel has also a very nice restaurant serving first plates in a buffet style.

Das Hotelzimmer ist sehr sauber und das Servicepersonal sehr freundlich. Wir hatten das Glück, ein Zimmer mit Seeblick zu bekommen. Das Essen im Restaurant im Erdgeschoss ist köstlich und bietet eine große Auswahl. Vom Terrasen aus kann man direkt auf den See blicken. Sehr empfehlenswert.
