Hotel Millennium

10/10 Excellent

"The Millennium Hotel was an adorable boutique hotel, located just a five-minute walk from the train station and across the street from Lake Maggiore. My room was gorgeous, with a bed that felt like sleeping on clouds. Everything was extremely clean. Breakfast was delicious and the proprietors are very nice. They even offered to arrange a transportation card for me, but I couldn’t take advantage of that because, sadly, I only stayed one night on my way to Milan. I hope to return and stay longer."

"We stayed in the Modern Double room & although small, it was perfect for two people. Very clean & comfortable with an amazing location on the Piazza Grande. Numerous restaurants located in walking distance. And the hotel has a wonderful restaurant right on the piazza. Although there’s no front desk, the hotel’s virtual contact (Marcello) was quick to correct any issues."
