Grand Hotel Des Iles Borromees

This is an amazing hotel in many ways! The staff are incredibly warm and helpful; the location is fantastic --with breath-taking views; the swimming pools and spa are top-notch; the restaurant food and service are excellent. It is an easy walk to Stresa, where we enjoyed shopping and drinks. I simply cannot say enough good things about our stay! I give this hotel my highest recommendation.

Veldig fin beliggenhet. Super frokost. Fine og rene bassengområder.

Absolutely wonderful historic hotel. An immersive museum of Italian art, outstanding service, and most beautiful grounds.

Truly grand hotel, friendly staff, excellent restaurant, good fitness center and lovely lake access.

Had a great week stay. Room clean and comfortable. Great amenities especially the spa area and pool.

Magnifique. Tous les services sur place ! Spa et piscines exceptionnels

Stayed four nights with my 14-year old daughter. Amazing hotel in a picturesque location. Lots to do on and off property. Pool, spa, boat rides on the lake and exploring the islands. Great restaurants. Incredible staff who were always friendly and helpful. 10 out of 10.

Lækkert hotel med en god beliggenhed og gode parkeringsforhold. Super service ved indtjekning og på restauranten. Personalet ved poolbaren var dog ikke særlig imødekommende.

Great hotel with nice and helpful staff

L’hôtel est très beau ; extrêmement bien entretenu et très agréable ! Le spa est un vrai plus et tous le personnel est charmant. Le seul petit bémol est que le rideau ne sont absolument pas occultants ce qui fait que le soir la chambre est éclairée par les projecteurs extérieurs et au petit matin c’est le le soleil, venir avec un masque de nuit ! Il manque aussi une Nespresso et une bouilloire dans les chambres

Hôtel de grande classe, personnel pro et restauration excellente Bien située et pratique parking plus piscine et bistrot pour manger sur le pouce à proximité.

The hotel is absolutely beautiful & well maintained in every detail. Kudos to the gardening staff for the magnificent surroundings bathed in the scent of jasmine. Spa experience (massage & facial) was excellent. My lake view superior room was lovely, clean. I’d think twice before staying here again for 1 reason: the sub-standard food. We dined at Il Borromeo 3 times & none of our dishes were hot nor prepared as ordered. They came out of the kitchen too quickly after ordering so we gathered they were pre-made. One night we ordered Wagyu steaks, medium rare. They were thin cut, served COLD & medium well; vegetables & sauce also stone cold. Sent them back & received well done meat. Sent that back & ordered the tagliata steaks, medium rare …got medium. The cacio e pepe was lukewarm, veal without flavor. The carbonara was also lukewarm & sticky rather than creamy. Bread was hard & lacked flavor. As for the breakfast served in Il Borromeo all the various croissants were dry (so disappointing). The lone bright spot for dining is Le Bistrot — the poolside snack bar! Great food there. Other small things need work: water bottles not replaced during our 4 day stay, no mint at turndown is odd for a 5-star, CNN not working even though we reported it twice. At check in Reception did not have a record of my pre-booked spa appointment & said *I* should call the spa to confirm. (Umm, no, that’s your job, Sir.) Restaurant staff more concerned about breaking down tables than serving guests.

Fantastic place for long weekend!!!!

Room is clean and beautifully decorated. Staff are friendly and courteous. Valet parking is great! Great view from hotel and close to city center.

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Concierge staff were very knowledgeable. We love staying at this hotel. We love the town of Stresa and would love to come back.

Amazing property!!!

Great location and wonderful service

Hotel historico y elegante, qu te hace sentir en un verdadero palacio. las habitaciones aunque estan bien, les vendría bien una remodelacion. Las vistas al lago son maravillosas.

Front desk staff and concierge were accommodating and friendly. One person was not so nice - ignored us standing there for quite a while even though no one else was around. But other than that, excellent! Spa was amazing! We enjoyed it every day. Would definitely stay here again!

This Hotel is a MUST to stay in.As you drive up you think you are in a time machine as you approach this gorgeous edifice from another century.Th...e rooms are spacious and you feel as if you are either in a castle or a museum. Staff extremely friendly and welcoming. Located only a short walk from the ferrys to the islands.breakfast was out of thos world.Fantastic choices everyday with spectacular service.This is the Hotel to choose if you are going to visit Lake Maggiore.
