Grand Hotel Des Iles Borromees In Stresa

Wonderful!! Very historic, looks like a museum, beautiful lake view, very well kept and clean, very kind staff! Beautiful SPA, sauna, everything well kept!!!

I go to the Grand Hotel et des Iles Borromées whenever we want to experience a special moment with my family. The structure is wonderful, very well-kept and with a breathtaking view of Lake Maggiore. The pool has been recently renovated and is a truly fantastic place to relax. The staff is extremely professional and helpful. Truly a unique place. I returned recently and discovered that inside the spa there is a truly excellent hairdresser. One more reason to come back again

Spectacular hotel - stunning inside! Very regal! Service and staff were excellent.

Going back to the distant 1900s. Trained and loyal staff of a true 5 star and more. Large and modern spa.

Wonderful! You can immediately tell that the owners care deeply about the preservation, maintenance and cleanliness of this jewel of Italian hospitality. It is a beautiful hotel. But it is more than a hotel... it is a treasure chest of Italian and world history... full of precious treasures: tapestries, vases, bowls, mirrors, statues, high reliefs, paintings (one for all the portrait of Madame Charles Max by Boldini), displayed with great care in the corridors/galleries of the floors, which deserve a careful and curious visit. The hotel is so magnificent that initially it could inspire a bit of awe. Instead you have to immerse yourself, with respect, but also with ease, in the warm embrace of the sophisticated and elegant atmosphere of this timeless mansion and its staff, always very kind and familiar. And what about the restaurant... the Chef is stellar and impeccable. Well done! Well done everyone, architects, decorators, owners and staff. Congratulations. And thank you for welcoming and hosting us with such elegance and kindness. See you soon. Marzio and Valentina Lenzi

Magnificent, attentive staff, perfect dinner, breakfast with lots of choice

Spectacular grand hotel, steeped in historic grandeur. It’s like staying in an art museum. Disappointed that during our one night stay the Spa was closed as an electrical cable had been severed by a nearby construction project. Rooms were dark and elevators out of service, but got a battery lamp and enough hot water for a bath. Staff tried very hard to compensate, and we were upgraded to a lovely lakeside room. Breakfast buffet was very good and dinner was excellent, but pricey. The bartender makes superb caipirinhas! This hotel was a wonderful experience and hope to repeat it again.

I was fortunate enough to stay in one of the hotel's most beautiful rooms, and what an unforgettable experience! From the moment I arrived, I was amazed by the beauty and elegance of this room. Every detail seemed to have been carefully considered: impeccable upkeep, spotless cleanliness, and no signs of wear and tear—everything was simply sublime. This room had a soul, an atmosphere that took me back in time, transporting me to an era where refinement and charm reigned supreme. A true timeless escape, full of emotion. The staff, for their part, were attentive, always attentive, and remarkably kind. The service was perfect from start to finish. Gastronomically, the meals were excellent, with a delicious and varied breakfast, the perfect way to start the day. And what about the bar? A cozy and warm place, perfect for enjoying a good cup of tea or a refined cocktail in a pleasant atmosphere. A memorable stay that I recommend!!!

A sumptuous hotel and a sublime and romantic setting. You have to take the time to appreciate both the architecture and the decor. However, we didn't appreciate being assigned a room with scaffolding on the balcony without prior notice, and given the price, we would have appreciated being moved to another room. Another drawback is that you have to reserve a two-hour time slot for the spa. After booking and respecting the schedule, we arrived without any available sunbeds because the spa was overbooked. It would be desirable to implement a schedule control and enforcement so as not to disadvantage guests who respect the schedule.

We stayed Summer 2013. Excellent Hospitality ‼️ In everything Perfect❗️
