Friendly staff, great food and wonderful details, such as kettle in the room, more than makes up for the slightly dated appearance. And there’s a public boat service running from the hotel jetty directly to the main square in Orta San Giulio - how convenient is that?

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.

Beautiful location! Clean room. Great breakfast. Dinner was also good. Negative: fridge in room didn’t work which spoiled some food. Could use some decor upgrades.

Really nice hotel

Really nice hotel and a lovely deluxe room, with a balcony right on the lake. Breakfast is great, with good quality products - however, it's the same every day. Would be nice with some changes during the week. Great 'beach'-area and a completely new swimming pool. We will be back! :-)

Amazing location and pool makes the room bearable

The location of this hotel is superb. The pool overlooking the lake is second to none and was worth the stay for that alone. The restaurant put on a great dinner as well. The actual hotel room was simple and sufficient, but the mattress had a really musty smell that kept me up for hours, until I used towels as a barrier to block the smell. The breakfast should be skipped as well. But oh that view from the pool!

We had a wonderful 3-night stay at this charming hotel. The lakeside position is fantastic - it’s definitely worth paying more to get a lake view room. The room was quiet & clean with a comfortable bed and good linen - I think a proper feather duvet. We had a small balcony which was good for reading. The roof-top bar served pizza and light meals. We dined in the smart restaurant one evening - expensive but a lovely treat. The staff were very polite and friendly. Parking free in the hotel car park. The pool was closed for our visit (mid-May) but there were convenient steps down into the lake for some invigorating swims. I highly recommend this hotel.

4/10 Fair

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.

Hotel at Lago D'Orta

Restaurant and service was really good. For breakfast an extra coffee machine would be nice due to cue of coffee hungry people. More parking lots would be nice also - especially for electric cars.

10/10 Exceptional

Notre chambre, bien que petite (chambre classique), était très bien avec une vue spectaculaire sur le lac. Cependant, aux heures des repas, l'odeur de cuisine monte vers le balcon. De même un bruit continu (groupe électrogène ?) dérange quelque peu à certaines heures. Le personnel est très aimable. Le petit-déjeuner est bien. Par contre, le repas du premier soir était très moyen, alors que le second soir, très bon (changement de cuisinier ?). Dans l'ensemble excellent séjour.

Super dejligt ophold med god morgenmad i skønne omgivelser. Perfekt med både pool og søen som bademuligheder og gratis pool håndklæder. Meget tilfreds med vores værelse som havde udsigt til søen gode muligheder for at spise på hotellet til rimelig priser.
