Wir waren jetzt seit 2020 jedes Jahr einmal da und fühlen uns immer wieder wohl.
Der Oberkellner ! Bei einer Änderung der Bestellung kommt er mit Begründungen z.B. das neue Gericht gibt es nur für 2 Personen obwohl das nicht in der Speisekarte steht und er auch kein Interesse daran hat Gerichte zu erklären. Wir würden sonst öfters im Hotel essen aber es gibt in der Nähe gute Alternativen.
Ansonsten ist das ganze andere Personal super freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Only small potential improvement is simple kids menu in restaurant. Some simpler meals like spaghetti and mostly pizza

Hidden gem, great facility, view from the rooms is amazing, spacious and clean room.
They can work on their service, particularly at the restaurant. Parking limited, early June parking was full, can only imagine what happens when they’re sold out.

the location is excellent. lovely view, access to the little beach of the lake, big pool. It' s a bit of a lost opportunity after the refurbishment: plastic floors, old bathrooms, hairdryers of the 80s. A little more attention and this could have become a gem on the Maggiore Lake. Now it's just one of the many touristy hotels
bathroom wasn't cleaned well. aircon is an old system and you can't control from your room but need to call reception to turn off/on. hairdryer old and not working properly.

Location and view - wow.More suitable for the elderly. Very friendly staff.
Our number was named better, but it certainly wasn’t. The TV is funny in size and raised so high that it is impossible to watch.Workers who clean the room do not leave new shampoo and shower gel everyday. Water is paid. Very minimal choice at the breakfast, and the same food every day. There are no vegetables at all.
4.3
The location in front of the lake which is just magical and the very tasty breakfast
The mattress would need to be changed you can feel the metal inside while sleeping.
One other point we disliked was the noise, the walls are quite thin we hear everything around in the other rooms and in the corridor.

Very tiny bathroom and shower

The beach was beautiful

The Junior Suites are really nice and newly renovated, which gives them a modern touch, a rather rare standard in this area of Italy. The nice terrace and the view is outstanding. Unfortunately the bath room in our JS was disappointing, however the other JS should have bigger bath rooms.
A big plus is that if you book a JS you have your sunbeds reserved all day in the front row. And the beach and restaurant area of the hotel is very nice. The restaurant is good, but a little overpriced and the menu is limited. However there is a simple trattoria on the other side of the street and even if the atmosphere is simple, the food is really good. So this gives a nice alternative to only eat in the restaurant.
The restaurant was nice, but the menu rather limited and expensive. Unfortunately there are not many restaurants around (except for the trattoria on the other side of the street which was excellent).
It's beautiful to spend some days at the lake, but the moment you want to leave the hotel you need a car, vespa or boat. There is no little town in Ghiffa and you can't easily walk, since there is no pavement.

Amazing location and view. Very comfortable bed. Nice room in general.
Breakfast is average. Staff -apart from the reception desk- could be friendlier.
4.3
The outside of the hotel was pretty nice, the beach area was also nice.
The rooms and all the hotel interior were very outdated, it’s such a pity as the exterior looked quite nice, it could have a big potential.
The bathroom, elevator, reception looked like a motel’s facilities.
It is definitely not a 4* hotel,
The restaurant service was absolutely deceiving, we arrived late on Friday evening, 21.45 and we asked if we could have a drink and if we could have a menu. The waiter said they didn’t have a menu and started reciting some names very fast and was waiting impatiently that we ordered something.
15 minutes after, the staff turned off the lights, so we had to leave the restaurant.
In the morning at breakfast, very low quality breakfast, it had a little variety but poor, at 10.30 sharp the waiter came and removed the bottles of water from everyone’s tables saying we are not allowed to have them anymore. The following day he said the opposite, very confusing.
No one is serving anything at the beach area, you need to go and take something yourself from a kiosk.
They could do so much better, but why bother when you already have clients and they like paying ridiculous prices for motel looking hotels just because the view is nice.
Never going back to that hotel, a total rip-off!
