Lovely staff - very friendly & helpful - Tracy the dog was also very sweet! Beautiful spacious accommodation with a wonderful vista of Lake Maggiore. Breakfast was delicious with the splendid panoramic view. Stresa is a most pleasant, relaxing town to stay in. We sailed to Isola Bella & Isola Madre (on the same day), the extraordinary Villa Taranto on another & all the way back from Locarno in Switzerland after taking the Lago Maggiore express train through the spectacular Alpine valleys. Stresa is an ideal location for these memorable excursions & Hotel Residence La Luna Nel Porto was the perfect place to stay - we even saw a full moon one evening which is why the hotel is called Moon Harbour, I guess!

FAQs about hotels in Lago Maggiore - Italy

A Breath of Fresh Air

Italy’s longest lake, Lake Maggiore lies at the foot of the southern Alps and extends into Switzerland in the north. Most of the Lake Maggiore hotels in Switzerland are in Locarno and neighbouring Ascona. Surrounded by vineyards, Locarno houses a 12th-century castle and an innovative representation of the solar system which extends as far as Tegna village.

Also in Swiss territory is Brissago, starting point for boat trips to the Brissago Islands whose botanical gardens grow coffee plants. Over the Italian border is beautiful Cannobio in Piedmont, where brightly coloured buildings overlook the small harbour.

South is Ghiffa, home to a UNESCO World Heritage-listed pilgrimage mountain. Just beyond is Verbania, a laidback city lining 2 of Maggiore Lake’s shores. Across the water, the largest of the Borromean Islands – Isola Bella – has a palace and stepped gardens offering wonderful lake views. Home to the largest concentration of Lake Maggiore hotels, Stresa is a lovely town and departure point for boat trips to these islands.

Near the lake’s southern tip is Arona, while less well-known Lake Maggiore resorts in Lombardy include Angera (known for wines and a medieval castle), sleepy Ranco, and Luino with its popular weekly market.

Booking.com has a fabulous range of apartments, B&Bs and hotels by Lake Maggiore covering all these resorts and more.

    The town Baveno is beautiful without any doubt!

    The town Baveno is beautiful without any doubt! It has nice parks, architecture and magnificent views of Lake Maggiore and the Alps. Unlike Stresa, the town is not crowded with tourists. From Baveno there is a very fast and very convenient transport to the Borromean Islands, and the port has much fewer travelers than those in Stresa. From Baveno there is transport to other beautiful towns on Lake Maggiore, such as Stresa, Verbania, Locarno, Cannobio and Laveno. If you don't speak Italian and aren't traveling by car, you should definitely visit the Tourist Information Center in Baveno, where you may get help about your trip to other towns on Lake Maggiore. Without help from the people in Information Center, you could experience very serious difficulties and waste a lot of time due to following: 1. If you do not speak Italian you may encounter serious difficulties communicating with the locals. 2. Public transport by train or bus can be very problematic. 3. A delay of 40 minutes is common for buses. Sometimes bus drivers pass some of the stops without stopping! 4. Trains can be very late or not arrive at all due to strikes, repairs or sudden changes in the schedule. 5. Baveno lacks a bus station and you can't buy bus tickets anywhere else but from the bus driver, and the drivers don't speak English and charge you extra because you buy tickets in the bus, which is a catch-22! Some streets in the town lack sidewalks, which is a problem if you're not traveling by car.

    I have been going to Cannobio for nearly thirty years it is a little gem on Lago Maggiore and is the essence if an Italian town. There are not many English or UK tourists, which makes it good to practise Italian. It sits on the lake with an amazing Sunday market and emits a feeling of comfort and home for me I should say its horrible to keep it a little secret but it is a great place to visit with amazing restaurants and good quality food with prices for all budgets and campsites too

    Arona is a wonderful city, with plenty to do.

    Arona is a wonderful city, with plenty to do. There is a Lake shore with lots of lovely restaurants and tasteful live music ( including a great pianist who plays near the ferry terminal most nights). There is a castle, a hop-on-hop-off train, and lots of classical Italian streets and shops in the Old Quarter of Arona. There is a ferry terminal with ferries that can take you to amazing locations on Lake Maggiore including to a number of small islands. There is a mainline train station with trains north to the foothills of the Alps or south to Milan and beyond. It appears to be a safe city, with a civilised night scene of people, couple and families enjoying walking along the Lakeshore promenade. A good location for people interested in boating also.

    Luino had some nice parts to it, but was not the most picturesque of the towns along Lake Maggiore, and there were not many tourists. It was a good base to catch the ferry( which we did most days) to different locations along the lakes. We particularly enjoyed going to Cannero (15 mins on the ferry) and had some fabulous walks on the other side of the lake. We enjoyed the Wednesday market in Luino.

    A lovely relaxed hotel, beautiful room & balcony. All the staff were delightful. Outside eating & drinks beside the lake were very special. Situated on a quiet lakeside situation, no busy traffic. Would absolutely recommend this hotel. We went on the hotel organised boat trip to Isola Madre & Isola Bella, really good, stress free day.

    A small place by the lake, but the shore is more or less private, so you are limited to the part of the shore that is in the camp, The place has many shops, which are more or less empty or already run down, also there is only one restaurant , which is open all day, but there is a lot of traffic. Also, there is a lot of garbage on the street. In general, you get the feeling that they had big plans for tourism, but they did not succeed.

    Lesa is one of the smaller towns dotted around the lake.

    Lesa is one of the smaller towns dotted around the lake. It has a few restaurants and bars but nothing noisy. If you are thinking of using the boats and ferries to get out and about you will have to go up to Stressa or down to Arona as there is only 1 boat a day that stops at Lesa. Small lakeside promenade that is a pleasant stroll or to stop for a drink . I would recommend hiring a car as public transport is a bit hit and miss. About 20 minute drive to Arona, 10-15 mins to Stressa.

    A beautiful, relaxed town on the banks of Lake Maggiore.

    A beautiful, relaxed town on the banks of Lake Maggiore. A beautiful promenade along the shore leads into the town centre and lots of restaurants. Daniel’s bar/restaurant on the promenade does great pizzas and pasta dishes with friendly hosts and an outstanding view.
