Check Availability & Pricing
Amenity highlights: Bordered by hedges and flowers are a 20-metre-long freeform pool and a deck furnished with umbrellas and cushioned sun loungers. The hotel offers lessons (surcharge) in porcelain painting, decoupage, cooking, and wine appreciation. Two fine-dining restaurants overlooking the lake, with the option of terrace seating, serve refined Italian cuisine.
Insider tip: An information centre in Stresa's lakeside piazza offers a complimentary brochure detailing several hiking and walking routes ranging from two to four hours. One route goes up the slopes of 1,491-metre Mottarone mountain. A low-level route leads to the so-called Panoramica road, from which there are sweeping views of the lake.

Property Amenities
Banks and beds of flowers, including camellias, azaleas, and rhododendrons, provide vivid colours against a background of lawns, hedges, cypresses, and palms. The hotel's lower section, on the lakefront across the street, is furnished with benches and softly lit after dark so guests can enjoy views of the Borromeo Islands during the day and water reflections of the islands' lights at night.
The villa features a salon with white marble floor, Murano-glass chandeliers, tapestries, gilded armchairs, tufted blue-velvet couches, and large windows framing views of the lake, the Borromeo Islands, and mountains beyond the lake. Cocktail service is available in the salon from mid-morning to late night.
