Hotel Royal
What Guests Say
Beautifully decorated, clean older hotel. Our room was on the fourth floor and overlooked the Lake and Isola Bella. The balcony was large, comfortable and private. Lovely hotel. The location provides great views, but it is a 20 minute walk into the town of Stresa. That is fine for most, but if you have any walking restrictions it is a little difficult. The walk along the lake is beautiful though and you can catch a ferry at end of the road. Very close. So for most I would say location is very good.

The staff were old school, very professional and seem to love their job . The hotel has character and is very welcoming and well presented. Beautiful flowers in the garden and freshly cut flowers in the hotel everywhere. Housekeeping staff are excellent and our room was immaculate! Thank you! The pool area and gardens are very relaxing to sit around. It is a lovely change to see the family that actually own the hotel also live there and to see how much they care and they should be very proud as it is beautiful.

The hotel is located just a few minutes’ walk from the port terminal providing access to the Borromean Islands. Another terminal is in Stresa, about a 20-minute walk along the scenic lakeside promenade (assuming you are visiting primarily for the Borromean Islands). The room is very nice, featuring a balcony with a table and two chairs. It also includes a refrigerator. The bathroom is fully equipped with all necessary toiletries. Breakfast is varied, delicious, and includes freshly prepared coffee of your choice. You can also reserve dinner if you wish. Free parking is available directly in front of the hotel. The staff — from receptionists to bartenders and waiters — are very helpful and friendly.

Large bedroom and very large balconies in first floor front facing rooms. Super king bed was very comfortable. Staff were very efficient and very cheerful. Set menu dinner was fine and at a reasonable price. Breakfast was extensive. Garden had plenty of places to sit, front and back. Tree lined side road led to the lake and ferry was just there if for a slightly reduced service than Stresa itself. But Stresa town was only a 15 mins walk down the lake; a promenade that was well lit at night.

Traditional Italian feel. Reception areas were comfortable and nicely furnished. Lovely art work on the walls. Beautiful view of the lake and Borromean Islands from our 4th floor balcony and also from the 5th floor terrace. Good buffet breakfast. Lovely 20 minute walk into Stresa centre via a beautiful lake side promenade. Boat trips to the Borromean Islands are available from this starting point.

it’s our second time in Stresa and my mom and i decided to come back to Hotel Royal, since a year ago we found it very pleasant. the entire staff confirmed our idea: everybody was helpful, professional, polite, joyful and friendly. it’s brilliant, everything is perfect. the rooms are clean and comfortable and most of them, or all of them, have a balcony or a terrace. i have to mention the spectacular breakfast that you have included staying here: it’s a continental one, you can have salty food, cakes, pies, fruits, yogurts, brioches, local jam, etc. Hotel Royal has a strategic position cause it’s near the dock where you can book a trip to visit the three islands. in case you want to relax at the hotel you can enjoy the pool, always clean and refreshing. in addition, there’s also a bar area where you can have an happy hour (we want to thank Mariella for being so kind and welcoming, she prepared very good cocktails for us). i want to thank again the entire staff for being the best, we will be back for sure!
