It was one of the most memorable stay, the hotel being an architectural highlight and disposing of a highly professional staff. The spa is as impressive as the beautiful environment of the hotel. ##### Max Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anngel 18 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We only stayed for one night, but it was lovely.

Would return- no hesitation Overall very pleased. Hotel’s location & room’s lake view were fabulous! Breakfast buffet was excellent. King room was a good size for 2 people. Room price included pool & spa amenities which were clean & outstanding. Absolutely no complaints except this one - The mattress was old and uncomfortable due to a large sleepers indentation. Definitely time to replace the mattress in room 310! ##### Therese Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### GinaLoretta 25 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great location.

The restored building is fabulous and the rooms are finished to the same standard. Attention to detail by the hotel staff is superb and everything is delivered with a smile. We will definitely return in the future. ##### Martin Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ingrid 12 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is a stunning hotel and was like staying in a palace. The spa and indoor pool were fantastic especially as it rained during our stay. The Hemingway bar was a great place for a drink in the evening with relaxing live music. Some of the room decor is a bit dated. Especially the drapes, bed covers and curtains but otherwise it was a very special place to stay. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fd334d4e-eeab-4750-8943-f8189a23a9ab-1749737401646.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/fd3fbac1-150a-4a61-9868-040c6ccc6895-1749737398292.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Ingrid Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Liset 30 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful hotel with a nice pool and great spa ##### Liset Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nowlan 8 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities This is one of our favorite hotels in the world. It is Old-World glam, and was a favorite of Ernest Hemingway's. The dining and hospitality are wonderful. We also love the sweet town of Stressa, set on Lago Maggiore. We went Baromee island hopping to beat the heat. The ferry stop was a few minutes stroll from the Hotel. Was all in all an unforgettable experience - and our second time there. We willbe back! . ##### Nowlan Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Monica 2 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent service and beautiful location.
