"Loved our stay at this gorgeous condo. Communications and videos were very helpful. My one suggestion is to provide the narrow width of the drive up to the unit at the very start of the booking process because if we had a larger rental car we would never have made it up that driveway, especially the left after the overpass—very tight. We originally reserved a van but changed it to a smaller Peaugot at the last minute. Thank goodness we were able to do this! Other than that—everything was lovely...

Top Stresa Hotel Reviews

Hotel Flora Adult Only

10/10 Excellent

"Good solid hotel that was described perfectly by Hotels.com. The front desk staff could not be more helpful to guests traveling in a foreign country."

Grand Hotel Des Iles Borromees

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is absolutely charming, with so many of its original period features beautifully preserved, which made our stay feel even more magical. One of the highlights was enjoying cocktails at the Hemingway Bar while listening to live piano music. The spa was wonderful, with both indoor and outdoor swimming facilities, and was the perfect place to relax. The hotel is also very well located, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. Throughout our stay, the staff were incredibly attentive and always made sure we had everything we needed. A beautiful hotel full of character, and a truly memorable stay."

Boutique Hotel Stresa

8/10 Good

"This hotel is beautifully maintained and in a great location. The staff were helpful. However, breakfast was a let down. No choices for someone who wants to eat fresh, low-carb and no pork. A selection of fruit would be great and some savoury vegetarian options."

Hotel Lido La Perla Nera

8/10 Good

"Wonderful lakeside location, away from the main Stresa hotels, but by a ferry terminal. Pleasant well organised breakfast buffet - but no kettle or fridge in the room."

Regina Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice. Nothing wrong to highlight"

Hotel Milan Speranza Au Lac

8/10 Good

"-Great location, friendly staff and a lovely breakfast We stayed four nights with our toddler and would happily come back. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout, and the location couldn't be better: right in the centre of Stresa, with the ferry to the islands just outside the door and restaurants, cafés and the lakefront all a short walk away. Breakfast was included and was easy, quick and delicious, which made a real difference with a little one in tow. We stayed in two rooms during our trip. The lake view room on the third floor had a fantastic view over the lake. The second room faced the street at the back, which had its own appeal: you could feel the energy of the town in the evening. Two things worth knowing. Like some other reviewers have mentioned, the beds are on the firmer side. And for international travellers, the power outlets are the older-style European sockets, so your international charger might not fit. Bring an adapter that works with Italian sockets. Overall, a very good stay, and we'd recommend it."
