Tiny in comparison to Como and Maggiore to the east, Lake Orta remains perhaps the most picturesque and unspoilt of the Italian Lakes. The Hotel Casa Fantini on its western shores is one of our favourite retreats on the lakes and offers warm hospitality and wonderful views of Isola San Giulio from its 11 bedrooms. After a few days here, a 45 minute transfer will whisk you to the historic Grand Hotel des Iles Borromees in nearby Stresa on Lake Maggiore, from where you can explore elegant gardens and the famous Borromeo Islands set to a backdrop of majestical pine scenery.
Lake Orta, Italy
In village of Pella on the western shores you will discover one of the best hotels to open in the region for many years. The ‘old house’ with its rustic bar and two sumptuous suites leads to a beautiful modern structure, home to a delightful lounge and nine bedrooms, each with a terrace looking out across the gardens to Isola San Giulio.
Lake Maggiore, Italy
This grand, imposing hotel has a great position in the centre of Stresa, set in its own extensive park and overlooking the lake. Since 1861 it has welcomed distinguished guests from around the world. Now travellers come to appreciate the Belle Époque atmosphere and style, the magic of a past rich in tradition and history, whilst at the same time enjoying modern facilities.
