Ottimo hotel, buona la posizione ottima va vista sul lago. Buon ristorante.

Hyvä sijainti. Hienot näköalat. Hyvä Parkki.

La posizione sul lago spettacolare e una stanza affacciata direttamente sul lago con una grande terrazza. Hotel costruito 90 anni fa ma arredato con mix di moderno e antico che non guasta. Personale molto cordiale sia in reception sia in sala colazioni. Ci siamo stati solo una notte ma meritava più tempo. Piscina e spiaggetta privata completano l’offerta

De kamers zijn mooi ingericht en afgewerkt met een zeeeer groot bed dat je een geweldige nachtrust gunt. De lokatie is echt TOP en de mensen, zowel staf als medewerkers zijn uiterst vriendelijk en gedienstig. De keuzemogelijkheid om te eten in het restaurant (culinaire maaltijden) of op het rooftop terras is een mooi gegeven. Spijtig dat je wel op voorhand dient te reserveren (daags voordien) om zowel in het restaurant als op het dakterras/-Bar wenst te eten.

The location of this hotel is fantastic right on the lake front with a lovely pool and sunbathing area with steps to swim in beautiful lake Orta. The restaurant is very good and busy so the noise from the restaurant may be disturbing but we were ok with the balcony door to our room shut.

On the first night, we ate in the restaurant. The food was expensive and the portions small – very 1980’s nouvelle cuisine – style over substance. We had to return a tasteless salad and pasta that was under-cooked - it was NOT al-dente, it was undercooked! The glasses of wine were small. The waiter that served us was unfriendly and thrust the wine list across the table right in front of my partner’s face to give it to me. We had to ask for the bill three times over a period of 30 minutes. We did not eat there again. There is more choice in Orta and it’s less expensive. The reception and bar staff were friendly and helpful. In the dining room used for breakfast, no staff greeted us, checked we were staying or our room number or showed us to a table. They didn’t engage with clients at all. The tables were not cleared of your used cutlery and crockery after finishing a course. They just piled up unless you took them to the kitchen. Often there were no bowls at the counter for fruit salad and nuts, they had to be fetched from the other end of the dining room, where the milk and yoghurt was stationed. The whole dining experience was not great. The location on the lake was good. Clientele mostly over 55.
