The Lago Maggiore
On the borders of Piedmont, Lombardy and Switzerland, the Maggiore Lake is the second largest Italian lake, after Garda. It is situated close to the Alps, stretching for 65 km from Magadino to Sesto Calende. Most of the lake lies in Italian territory, in Piedmont and in Lombardy; only the most northerly end belongs to Switzerland.
The micro climate is mild and the summers are not as hot as the rest of Italy (+/- 26°C). Lake Maggiore, repository of the wealth and cultural patrimony left by the Borromeo family, is still testimony to their prestige and refinement which can be seen in their magnificent island palazzi with their impressive Italian gardens, and the imposing Fortress of Angera. The Monastery of Santa Caterina clinging to the rocky cliff; Stresa and the Borromeo Islands, small in size but rich in history, are just a few of the timeless examples awaiting the visitor.

The hotel offers: bar with outdoor terrace, comfortable lounge, dining room with superb lake views, card room, billiard room, fitness room, internet, swimming pool, private lakeside bathing area with deckchairs and umbrellas, 20.000m² of lawns and gardens, tennis court, lifts.
