I booked this hotel last minute while travelling to Italy with my mother and young son to look for a wedding venue .

It is difficult to imagine a more beautiful setting along the shore of Lake Orta. The setting and the friendly staff make this a really great hotel. We spent a week here in July and enjoyed a super mix of lazy days on the lake and trips around the area of Lake Orta and to nearby Lake Maggiore. It is... More
