    Rooms could use a little updating.

    The location is perfect, set on the heart of Menaggio. The owner was great, warm and welcoming. Rooms were simple but clean and comfortable. They have a restaurant as well which was amazing quality and great value for money.

    This is one of the BEST local hotels / bnb I’ve ever stayed at. It has a warm cozy feeling, with being on top of a popular family-owned / authentic Italian restaurant, yet still having very spacious rooms. The staff was wonderful and even made room for me the two nights I ate downstairs - they get busy with reservations since it’s so good! They always greet you with kindness & care…as if you’re family! I had a wonderful room with a view facing the square / lake. The balcony was perfect. And the town of Menaggio in general, is by far one of the bests in my opinion. Has just the right amount of people / things to do for tourists, but NOT overcrowded like Bellagio. Everyone was also very warm & welcoming.

    My room didn't have a lake view, but that was not a problem. I believe that other rooms do have a view, so maybe check prior to booking.

    Really enjoyed the stay, as property is right in the centre of Menaggio. It's close to the ferry port and bus stop. Great choice if you want to visit other places on the lake. The check in process was very smooth. Private bathroom, very clean room. There is a fan and hair dryer in the room.

    The drawbacks certainly existed, not critical for us, yet someone might find them essential. The kettle was lacking in the room. We were aware of that and that was not a problem. The room was not soundproof at all. The wi-fi leaves much to be desired at times.

    We stayed at that small family hotel for 4 night in early May. The position is superb, right at the center of Menaggio. Honestly, it is the best price/ quality balance for that town. The hostess is a nice and hospitable lady, who is ready to help. The room is a very basic one, yet neat and clean. The bed is comfy, the linen is pleasant and clean. Room cleaning is on everyday basis, no days-off. The gimmick of the room is the part-view from the balcony facing the lake and the embarkment. It was okay to sit there in the evening especially when the central life has faded out. Actually the hostess runs a small cozy restaurant downstairs.

    It’s an old fashioned building so can be a little noisy when people move around in the floor above, but not a big problem

    This hotel was an amazing find- for value for money in Mennagio it is incredible. When I booked this, the nearest thing to it with the location and a view of the water was three times the price, and although it is basic so don’t expect luxury, it was pretty, full of character, did amazing food in the restaurant- and the most lovely lady running it that could not be more friendly and make you feel more welcome. It was a gem of a find that meant I was able to afford to spend 5 lovely nights in Mennagio
