Overall Ratings & Reviews Relais & Chateaux Villa Crespi

Very personable staff, beautiful property and gorgeous room with balcony - excellent

A joy to celebrate my husband's special birthday here. We enjoyed 3 nights of wonderful care and help from a brilliant, attentive reception team, especially Sara and Richard. Nikolai was so kind driving us to places to eat in the village in the evening. A special shout out for the young barman, whose name I didnt get, whose English is exceptional. The hotel is ideally placed for the village, the island and the Unesco Sacro Monte. The Couples Symposium in the Wellness Suite was a real treat. The two therapists were friendly and professional and gave us a fabulous treatment. The exceptional meal in the restaurant was the best treat of all, innovative, delicious.a wonderful experience, alongside a very good wine flight and excellent service.

Phenomenal. Incredible architecturally significant property with top-quality gourmet restaurant offering mind blowing tasting menu. Staff is absolutely the best it can be. Best service and food there is. Must see and experience to believe.

Amazing hotel with wonderful staff

Very unique property by Relais & Chateau situated in a very beautiful area near Lake Orta. Staff very welcoming and accommodating. Three Star Michelin restaurant provided memorable sinning experience.

There was some noise of people constantly walking around above us. We were in room 221. My wife was upset that she couldn’t sleep in the afternoon because of constant walking around above us. At night it was much quieter.

Beautiful!

This place is better than any picture can illustrate. Every detail is attended to with perfection. The painfully intricate carvings on the stone, the antique furniture with bronze and gold plated accents, the antique style bath tub, the pink and yellow hue’ed chandelier crystals, the old pink and green marble on the bathroom wall. If you blink you’d think you stepped back into the 1800s. Such good taste was employed to recreate this place that seriously looks like you stepped into a dream.

Lovely stay. Magnificent food. Missed it having a pool though they have an excellent sister hotel 5 minute drive away with spectacular pool. Would be the icing on the cake if they had their own

Fabulous!

The hotel is set in lovely grounds just a short walk one of the smaller lakes, Lago D'orta. The building itself is beautiful and has an interesting history. What I loved: the staff were amazing - very friendly and extremely helpful. The food was excellent. We were lucky enough to have dinner at the 2 Michelin starred restaurant and loved it. The breakfast was also very good (and overwhelming). What we liked less: we were late booking so got a classic room. It was perfectly nice but the decor was a bit tired. I don't mean old fashioned as this is a classic villa so I wasn't looking for a modern, minimalist decor. It was just a little old with tired color schemes. Also, there was only a hand held shower head in the bath, rather than a true shower. It was fine but if I come again I would book earlier to get a better room.

Amazing unique property, like staying in a museum

The hotel and service were 5 star. We were treated wonderfully by the staff. No request was not fulfilled, and with a smile. Dinner in their two star Michelin dining room was a real treat - expensive but worth the dining experience

Beautiful scenery and excellent staff. Great therapists at the spa in a simple premises. Dinner is a must and again excellent staff.

Amazing stay surrounded by a nice panorama completed by a very professional and gently staff. The restaurant led by Tony Cannavaccioulo is absolutely outstanding!!!! It's a must to have a dinner with him if you decide to stay there. Thank you staff, thank you Tony... will come back with the rest of my family soon.

Every room has it’s own character. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. There is an excellent Michelin rated restaurant in the hotel. We wish the weather was better so we could enjoy the town more.

Arrived to discover the restaurant was unavailable owing to a function - which is when we realised what a poor location it is - 20 minutes walk to town (can't drive in, town is pedestrianised), on a busy roundabout, no direct access to the lake). No apology. Then at breakfast, the (Michelin *) kitchen failed to produce a poached egg - we waited 45 minutes. Again no apology. Staff were very poor, rude and unhelfpful.

Top reataurant (2 star michelin). Great staff. Matheo did an excellant job in arranging water skiing.

Perfect

Fantastic hotel, worth a try and the friendly staff and location and the surrounding is absolutely gorgeous.
