About the location
Holidays in Stresa take you to one of the prettiest locations in the
Italian Lakes, with the elegant town perched on the western shore of Lake Maggiore where soaring mountains form a photogenic backdrop.
Stresa has been here for at least a thousand years and the town is peppered with historic buildings, from medieval churches to Renaissance villas. Its cobbled streets are full of pavement cafés and boutique shops, while the surrounding area is renowned for its opulent lakeside palaces and ornamental gardens.
The town is a handy hopping-on point for many ferries and boat trips which sail up and down Lake Maggiore, offering a relaxing way to enjoy the scenery and visit the other towns and villages around this 65km-long lake. For panoramic views of Lake Maggiore and the mountain peaks beyond, Stresa’s cable car climbs from the lakeside to the top of Mount Mottarone, taking you nearly 1,300 metres above the town.
Transfer time
The hotel is 1 hour from Malpensa airport. Return private transfers included. To change your transfers or book car hire instead, simply call us once you’ve completed your booking.

If you can visualise how the interior of the titanic might have looked, you'll have an idea of the grand scale of the interior of this hotel. It opened in 1909 so that travellers on the Paris-Istanbul Orient Express could break their journey and enjoy a few days of restful luxury at the beautiful resort of Stresa. The huge reception and dining areas are still beautifully maintained and the view from the dining room across the lake at breakfast is just magnificent. We visited as a group with Riviera travel but we still had a very grand room with a balcony, ensuite with bath, bidet.......bathrobe and slippers. Huge comfy bed with soft cotton bed linen changed daily. There are two large pools, one in the park-like gardens and another indoor pool. Sunloungers and piles of yellow towels freely available for use at the pool. Our meals were good and Mauro our head waiter looked after us with professionalism and humour. We had a lovely week here.

Don???t stay here if you like to sleep at night. The walls between the rooms are thin wooden board. The sound proofing is zero.
I asked to be moved because of noise, the manager turned nasty (at midnight!) He told me to tackle the people who were making noise or phone the police if I wasn???t happy. The arrogance was shocking. Just don???t book this place, the pictures are deceiving.
Very dusty room. The water coming from the taps was brown, spiders in the sink, black mites in the bathroom floor, and had to pick up circa 20 small bits of broken glass from the rug beside my bed - plus two clipped toe nails.
