It was very posh
Waiters dressed in tuxs food was everything you could ask for. So 1920's. It was lovely staying in a real palace. So opulent. We had crowns above our beds. Beautiful views over Lake Maggorie. We were so close to all amenities. Great shopping. Unbelievable sightseeing. We could see the snow capped Swiss Alps. Can't recommend Stresa highly enough.
Hotel Della Torre is a well-maintained, family-run hotel set just out of Stresa town centre and only 150 metres from Lake Maggiore. Enjoy pretty lake views from the gardens.

Lovely staff - I felt looked after. The location is splendid - right near the boats quai for the islands and the park. There is a cafe/restaurant opposite with a view of the lake and surprisingly good food - great for a no fuss dinner. I love this kind of traditional Italian hotel - well kept, well run

We loved Stresa - there was a lot to do there and in the area. We took ferries to St. Catherine Monestary and to Isola Bella which was incredible. We also took a day trip to Lake Orta and did a hike up the hills for beautiful views of the alps. You could defiantly stay longer - it is a great base camp for exploring the area, especially if you have a car. But be warned - roads are narrow and winding and the Italian drivers are crazy. Stresa had lovey shops and so many good restaurant choices - the hotel staff was great at making recommendations.

I like the location of the town, the vibrant character of the town with its bustling shops and terrific collection of restaurants including a handful that are Michelin-recommended (but not starred YET).
I like the size of the town- not too big, not too small, totally walkable and easy to learn your way around!
A most beautiful location, on the wester shore of Lake Maggiore with snow capped Italian and Swiss alps visible on the horizons above the lake in early to mid may, and best (ferry) access to the 3 nearby Borromean islands, two with their beautiful tourable Palace and Gardens (Isola Madre and Isola Bella) and one for its shops and eateries ( Isla Pescatori aka Superiore).
Restaurant prices are ridiculously affordable compared to Milan or Switzerland: a foodie heaven. Michelin-listed restaurants (not yet "starred to my knowledge) serve exceptional and genuine regional fare, my favorites were Al Vicoletto, Ristorante Pizzeria Pappagallo, Lo Stornello, and the one we didn't have a chance to reach but will next time is on the hills above Stresa with the views called La Rampolina.
If you are a wine lover or foodie, be sure to stop by the La Cambusa Wine shop for a free tasting and learn the owner's secret favorites!

Stresa is a beautiful town with lovely walks along the lake.
Stresa is a beautiful town with lovely walks along the lake. The apartment was comfortable and beautifully decorated and well equipped for our stay. The train was about a 10 minute walk and has easy access to Milan and also to Switzerland. It was very quiet when we went and perhaps will visit when busier as some thing were still closed such as two of the islands but it was early in the year before the season began. The lake and views are stunning and well worth a visit, nicer than stayin in Milan city centre.

A very picturesque town right on the water.
A very picturesque town right on the water. However most restaurants were closed in February, the shops were closed on Monday and there was very little to do except take the ferry to Isola Pescatore and Isola Madre. After travelling further around the Lake I would stay next time at Arona. Much busier little town with lots of restaurants and shops open. As well as being on the Lake.

One of my all-time favorites.
One of my all-time favorites. I like to come back over and over, again.
Nice atmosphere and charming town center. One of the best gelaterias !!! Great restaurants and nice to just hang out.
The Borromean Islands and the hermitage Santa Caterina are great places to visit - or you can go to the other side of the lake, even the Swiss part
Overall, people are very friendly

Proximity to the lake was excellent.
Proximity to the lake was excellent. Majority of restaurants very good, some pricier than others of course but several with sensible prices. The food on the whole was excellent and plenty of it. The owners of the restaurants and their staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. the fish featured prominently on all the menus and was excellent and fresh.
We stayed in Locanda Verbena only 1 night on our way to Stresa and the lake Maggiore.
The room was very clean, the bathroom had all facilities, the bed was very comfy and the sheets so clean despite it is not a hotel. A typical Italian "locanda" with its local charm and a restaurant downstairs.
The host was a very polite lady who spoke perfect English :). She served a nice Italian breakfast and tried to respond to all our requests and needs. I would recommend the place for its price and cleanliness.
It was a lovely place to stay if you want to feel like you have been transported to 1920!Beautiful hotel!We had a lovely view of the lake from our room,very small shower(in the bath shower),within walking distance to the ferry landing and old town square.Could not get a table for dinner during our stay,but the breakfast was nice.Pool area also nice and the lunch we had there was good.Parking on the premise..great because parking is a problem in Stresa..Bed was nice and big..we had a good sleep.
We were completely blown away by this incredibly beautiful hotel. Breakfast was extensive, with lovely tables overlooking the lago, wonderful pools and spa/wellness center in glass pavillion is brand new and included in your stay, staff is perfect, we cannot find enough nice things to say. Our family plans to return as often as possible for a truly relaxing experience - not to mention the very cute town of Stresa.
The hotel is located super close to the Lago and within walking distance to the centro. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The entire place is really clean and the room was cosy. The pool is small but we’ll kept and there are lots of lounging chairs, umbrellas and towels available. Heads up if you are tall like us (6 ft): the bed was only 6’3” (as is the norm in Italy) but it’s big enough to still be comfy.
This was a last minute reservation for us, so we were very happy that the hotel made room for us to stay. It was incredible that they put us in a room with the best view the hotel had. We extended our stay an additional night to take advantage of luck. Nice property across the street from the ferry terminal which was very convenient and very close to the old town and many restaurants and shops.
Sempione Boutique Hotel has it all: perfect location in Stresa, in the first line at the lake, amazing rooftop with a view, very kind, helpful and professional staff, comfortable, modern and very clean rooms, excellent breakfast. Although travelling with a little baby and faced with all possible challenges of a young family, we spent there a wonderful, relaxing time. Thank you!
Lovely regeneration of a traditional hotel location in Stresa. Beautiful lake views from the room balcony and from the breakfast terrace. Great selection at breakfast. Easy walking distance into the town and to the pier on the lake to be able to pick up lake boat tours. Hosts were super welcoming and helpful. As a new hotel everything is really clean and of high quality.
The owner is very kind, helpful and flexible. He helped us a lot however we were quite late.
Location is great: close to the railway station and in reachable distance from the city center of Stresa. The Hotel is in a quiet street, lovely inside and outside. The rooms are clean and cozy.
There is a private parking lot, you don't have to leave your car on the street.
The hotel, service, facilities, food and staff were all exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble. Hotel La Palma is in a wonderful location right on the lake with stunning views from the rooftop lounge. We wish we'd had longer and will definitely be back.
Thank you to everyone for making it such a memorable 4 day break. We'll be back.
Lovely hotel with very pleasant staff. Good breakfast and pool. Very close to boats to visit the islands. Beautiful 15 to 20 mins walk by the promenade into the main town of Stresa. If you like peace and quiet this is the perfect place to be. We had a lake view room so worth it as each room has a balcony with table and chairs
Small hotel, conveniently located steps from the center of Stresa and the ferry docks . Hotel is very well maintained and has wonderful views of Lake Maggiore. It is spotless and in wonderful condition. The Manager and Staff are excellent and go out of their way to make sure you are comfortable and have a good stay .
We loved this Hotel, our huge room had a balcony overlooking the main square in Stresa and would have been quite grand back in the day. The whole place was spotless and the staff were very welcoming, particularly the owner, she even baked cake!
The room with a lake view was wonderful....great bathroom and comfortable bed and pillows....
The breakfast was amazing and the lake view made our stay so great!!!
Location was ideal just 2 km from stresa with free parking across hotel
Location of the hotel was a 15 minute walk into Stresa. There was a ferry port just outside to connect you to other towns around the lake. Our room had a wonderful lake view. The breakfast had a good selection each morning.
Small hotel right in the centre of Stresa, very convenient for visits to the town and surrounding areas. Public parking nearby and restaurant on site. Room more than adequate for a two night stay. Friendly staff.
The room was large and you had everything you needed. The staff was also really friendly and helpful. Oh and since it's Italy, one should mention: they actually do speak english and german perfectly
This is a very nice hotel just in front of the lake. Wonderful position to visit Stresa and the surrounding (islands, Villa Pallavicino, etc). Very clean and with very nice staff ready to help you.
Definitely looks better in the pictures and the location is good. Just a short walk from Stresa center. Very quiet at night.
