I migliori ristoranti in Novara

29/11/2025: Quality food and excellent service

24/11/2025: If not the best, one of the best.

12/03/2026: Family atmosphere and excellent food

09/03/2026: We dined here by chance on two consecutive evenings, unaware of its historic character. We were in Novara for work, and were very pleased with the service, quality, and family atmosphere. We'll definitely return if we're passing through.

09/02/2026: Extremely well-maintained and welcoming environment with clean and well-maintained rooms. Breakfast is home-style, with excellent products. The owner is kind, knowledgeable, and very friendly. A perfect place for those seeking rest and relaxation, just minutes from Lake Maggiore and Lake Orta.

29/01/2026: Easy to get to and very quiet. The owner and his family were excellent in their welcome and made us feel at home. The room was large and clean. Recommended for those who want to get away from the hustle and bustle.

01/02/2026: Excellent atmosphere, service, and food. Superlative meat. Excellent presentation.

27/01/2026: This place is not recommended for anyone with a furry friend, as four-legged guests are not welcome! I've had a poodle for six years, and he's always come with me everywhere. I've never had any problems; in fact, I often get compliments on him. I recently tried to book a table and, for the first time in six years, I was told that the dog had to stay under the table, not bark, not feed him, and, better yet, maybe not breathe (I'm adding this, obviously, in a decidedly polemical tone)! I'm sorry to say that the restaurant has definitely lost a customer, and I fear that other animal lovers won't appreciate it either! I wrote a review following a phone call where you said, "I'm telling you that the dog can come, but if anything happens, we'll see!" If that means we're welcome, well, it doesn't seem like it to me! I only reviewed what happened, and it's my right to do so! As you say, anyone reading this will understand!

18/12/2025: I don't have any photos of the experience I had today, I declare that the biscuits are a cool specialty

04/09/2025: Caffè Tooop!! Alessandro and his staff were all very kind and professional!!! Thanks, see you on Thursday!!!

07/09/2025: San Giulio Island is beautiful. Don't miss it.

14/07/2025: Very friendly, typical and above all very well-equipped little town! I would like to give a huge thumbs up for having made bins available almost everywhere, which fortunately forces tourists to respect them! I was afraid of walking around the lake and I must say that I was surprisingly surprised by the facilities!!!! Tourists are spoiled! The little tourist train, nice! And above all very practical! The island to visit, a haven of peace!!! Very quick crossing by small boat, with very friendly and attentive staff. Small downside.... There are many restaurants, menus and drinks that are decent, but from the start and automatically we are spoken to in English, whereas it would be more pleasant in Italian!!!!

13/08/2025: Sorry, but I have to say it. Your toasts are the eighth wonder of the world. The filling is a world cultural and artistic heritage. Thank you for existing.

14/11/2025: Some locals took me there, a nice, welcoming place for both breakfast and aperitifs.

27/12/2025: Kind and patient staff, I recommend

27/12/2025: Fast service and excellent quality. Highly recommended.

15/09/2025: Everything was fresh and nice service! :)

06/02/2026: Let me preface this by saying... I'm only giving it one star so I can publish this review at all... I would actually give it MINUS 500 stars. This hotel is completely unsuitable for families with dogs, even though it advertises itself extensively online and on-site with "Pets Welcome." Why am I writing this, or rather, warning other families with dogs about this hotel? ... - We wanted to enjoy a nice vacation at Lake Maggiore from June 28th to July 5th, 2025, and booked this hotel based on the promised conditions: * Room/suite with a reserved/private outdoor area (great for us because of our dog and our SUPs) * Direct lake access (great for us, as we know how difficult it is to get to/from the lake with a dog and SUPs otherwise) * Hotel staff who speak German * Hotel parking - We arrived on the afternoon of June 28th, 2025, and what did we find? * Room/suite with a balcony offering no shade for most of the day, instead of the booked room/suite with a reserved outdoor area * Using the direct lake access with our dog was impossible, as we would have had to walk through the pool area, which is generally off-limits to dogs. At reception, we were told to find a suitable swimming spot on the lake by car or on foot. The dog can go in... what? What was the point of booking a hotel with private lake access then? * The dog is not allowed to be left alone in the room/suite at any time, under threat of a substantial fine from reception. This meant that we, as a family, couldn't even go swimming or eat in the hotel restaurant (e.g., breakfast, dinner). One of us would have always had to stay with the dog while the others ate or went swimming. This is not what you expect from a family vacation. * Communication was only possible in English, not German. Luckily, our daughter, with her excellent English, took over. Under these circumstances, we didn't check into the room/suite and left. Unfortunately, we had already paid for the room/suite in full beforehand. We asked the receptionist about a refund, and she told us to contact management. We did so promptly, but so far without success. We haven't received a single cent back to this day, and we can assume that our unoccupied room/suite was promptly re-let during peak season. The hotel owner has clearly double-dived. One thing is certain: we will never return to Lake Maggiore or the Hotel Antico Verbano in Meina, and we absolutely cannot recommend it.

07/01/2026: Very good strategic point, we had a great time, good clean hotel, excellent swimming pool, excellent relaxation place

07/03/2026: Beautiful place, and delicious risotto!!

17/02/2026: A guarantee.... Impeccable service, courtesy and organization always at the top
