"We loved our stay here. It was 4 nights at the end of a couple of weeks of interrailing and was just the bit of luxury and relaxation we needed. Room had a verandah with lovely lake and garden view. The air-con was much appreciated.
The pool and the lake were perfect to cool off in and we always managed to find a lounger (early July) although not always a parasol. Snacks and drinks were available at the poolside.
The setting is gorgeous on the side of Lake Orta with the most stunning scenery and so peaceful compared to other Italian Lakes. Water taxis call at the hotel and take you to various places. Don't miss Orta (Sacro Monte too), Isola San Giuilio and, if you are there on a Thursday, the boat ride to Omegna for the huge weekly market.
We had breakfast every day and there was plenty of choice of hot and cold food and some options for us vegans: blueberry croissants, coconut yoghurts, oat milk etc plus lovely fresh and tinned fruit options.
We dined in the restaurant on one evening right by the lake (some mosquitoes late on). My husband's pasta dish was lovely but my vegan 'terrine' was a bit disappointing and was not a terrine at all, more like a sausage shape made of mashed potato and other veg.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. They arranged a taxi from Pettenasco station to the hotel for us and when we couldn’t get one for the return trip, organised other transport for us. Thank you Marco.
We thoroughly recommend this hotel."
