A very comfortable, family-run, small and extremely friendly hotel (with its own all-day restaurant, serving the public & guests) that is very close (about 40 metres) from the main dining square of old-town Stresa, and also very close (approx 150 metres) from the Lake-side and ferry terminal. Lots of old-world ambience and great staff friendliness, with quite adequate rooms, although not with the inclusions (eg. bar fridge) of modern hotels. The included breakfast is quite comprehensive and the dinner-de-casa (4 courses) is remarkably generous and of great quality at a surprisingly low price. A genuine feeling of historic charm and great hospitality at a truly affordable rate.
