Will stay again
A wonderful way to visit Lago Maggiore. The hotel has beautiful grounds and spectacular views of the lake. The service is excellent and very friendly. The hotel has a parking lot, which is very helpful. The area is very quiet. Stresa is about three kilometers away for a boat ride, a stroll, and numerous restaurants. Ideal place to visit the lake.

Great views from this location. Just a short drive to get to public parking for the public and private boat services to the islands. It's on the main road which the vehicles go too fast, so be careful walking from the free parking and the stairs up to the property.

Bargain stay close to Stresa
The rooms are exactly as described, nice and clean. The views from the room are amazing. Only suggestion is to have slightly thicker bedsheets as it was raining the night we stayed.

Awesome stay near Stresa
Very clean rooms, comfortable beds, nice view from the balcony, friendly staff. I would say the hotel is definitely worth its money. Cons: there are almost no sidewalks along the road to Stresa, so it's sometimes not too comfortable to walk, if not saying scary. There is a river flowing near the hotel, if the balcony door is opened , it's noisy enough in the room

Just Fabulous! and the View Magnificent!
I had a fabulous time and Hotel Villa Ruscello made my visit even better! Perfectly situated on Lake Maggiore between Baveno, Stresa Italy.on the lake Isola Bella and Isola dei Pescatori were just a ferry ride away and very charming . The castle and gardens on Isola bella were magnificent! A Must visit! Natalino's and his brother were the best and very helpful and gracious!

A family owned hotel for 3 generations,the staff was excellent. The breakfast area is wonderfully appointed with art and antique furniture. I've been to 70 countries and this was the most elegant. The gardens are terraced at 3 levels. There is a private beach, which is rare on this lake.

We were in a family trip to north Italy. Location is great, service is very personal and smiley. Room is comfort. Breakfast is good. Private parking. Tip: For families with lots of baggage it is better to take the first floor room.

Characterful hotel in convenient location
I chose this hotel because it is small and personal, and right on the shore of Lake Maggiore. It has wonderful views of Isola Bella and is very conveniently placed for lake tours and the cable car. The hotel management is very welcoming, kind and courteous and provided useful information for our stay. The breakfast room is lovely, overlooking the lake, and we enjoyed a good continental breakfast. The ONLY thing detracting from our stay is that the hotel is trapped between a very busy and noisy road, and the railway line. The rooms have excellent double glazing so it's only light sleepers liek myself who would find this a problem.

Overall very pleasant stay, superb hotel gardens and pleasant lakeside facilities. Very busy main road but not a big problem.. Good base for exploring local area. Only moan is lack of tea/coffee making facilities in room, if you like an early morning cup of tea then take a travel kettle with you !

A very good condition hotel that is friendly and family run. The view from the balcony of Lake Maggiorie is simply stunning. Close to both Stressa and Bavenno. Can't be faulted for service, comfort and location.

One night convinient location - not for a vacation
Great location... though. stay in the room or get in the car if you wish to spend time outside It is on a busy noisy main road, no sidewalk. Can't leave the window open - water fall under the window, railway from the other side and the rosd under the gate..

Good value for money from England
Lovely location. Road in front of hotel and railway line behind a bit noisy but not too bad. Ask for a room at the front so that you get a lakeside view. Staff very friendly, breakfast good. There could have been a bit more information in the room, for example how to operate the tv to switch from digital to analogue otherwise you can't get many stations. Also some information about the local area would have been useful. Overall, very good value for money.

Hotel Villa Ruscello
It is a lovely friendly hotel, very good value for money. The rooms were basic but ensuite and clean. The only real downside was it not being In as close to Stresa as we imagined, It is a bit of a trek along a main road. And we did have a lovely view of Lake Maggiore from our room with a balcony. The staff were ever so helpful and polite. I think it must be a family run hotel. If you like an early start to the day, bear in mind that breakfast starts at 8.30am though they may open the breakfast room a little earlier. I would recommend staying moreso if you have a car and are travelling around. So it is good for: 1)price 2)friendliness 3)view of Lake Maggiore.

Hotel Ruscello
Budget hotel in a lovely location. However if you dont have a car or a bicycle you are looking at a 40 minute walk into Sesetre, the nearest town, and half of that is on a road with no pavements. Breakfast was OK but it does not start till 8.30am so if you want an earlier start to your day you will have to go without breakfast. Rooms are basic but OK and they have BBC world. However the shower cubicles (plastic pods) are tiny and not easy to use if you are over 6ft or on not as slim as you would like to be!

on s'attendait à une autre qualité de chambre vu le prix...on n'est d'ailleurs pas restés. Pour exemple, il y a une TV dans la description de la chambre, mais on ne peut pas la voir depuis le lit ! Jamais vu ça... Placé près d'une route sans trottoir pour aller à Stresa, on est obligés de prendre la voiture.
