    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating
    • Free Wi-Fi

    Hotel La Palma is set just across from the lakefront and a 5-minute stroll along the promenade from the town centre.

    The hotel has some of the most spectacular lake views from their rooftop, and they’ve certainly made the most of this space with the Sky Bar*, rooftop pool and sun terrace.

    On top of that, the lakefront pool's just across the road from the hotel and has more stunning views and direct access into the lake. Indoors, split your time between the wellness centre, bar* and lounges.

    Just so you know, a tourist tax is payable locally in cash. This will be approximately €2.50 per person, per night.

    Please note that safety standards around balconies, railings and public walkways are different in Italy and may be lower or have ornamental features that you wouldn’t see in the UK or Ireland.
    For your own safety and that of everyone you’re travelling with, please make sure you take care not to lean on or over any railings. If you have children under 12 years, please make sure they’re supervised and not left alone at any time.

    Location: This hotel is on the inland side of the road that runs along the western side of Lake Maggiore. Views of Lake Maggiore from the room balcony are breathtaking, with even better views from the rooftop bar and pool area. The hotel’s front gardens are magnificent. It was a short walk (5 – 7 minutes) into the town of Stresa, with many restaurants and tourist shops. A local Carrefour was useful to by some food and drinks without paying too much. Check-in: I was travelling on a bus tour (Albatross’s Grande Italian Tour), so check-in was done by our tour director. I had reason to ask the reception for a sewing kit and they were very helpful. Room Facilities: I had a huge room that was very comfortable and tastefully decorated. I had a king bed, which was actually two singles connected to make one bed. It was comfortable enough, although similar to most Italian hotel beds, it was marginally firmer than I like. The room was quiet, with a good sized balcony overlooking the gardens and the lake. Everything in the room was functional and well laid out, with a style that seemed partly modern and partly classic. The complimentary Wi-Fi was easy to connect and worked well throughout my stay. The bathroom was large and very modern. There was four (4) choices of water outlet in the shower. There was no bath, but that is what I prefer. Room storage was excellent, with several areas to arrange my things, including a free-standing wardrobe. Breakfast: Breakfast was quite adequate without being amazing. It certainly was enough to get the day off to a good start. Waiting staff were a little disconnected with the customers, one area that could be improved. We ate a meal at the hotel restaurant, however the standard of the food overall was poor. Check-out: Same as check-in, performed by our tour director. Overall: A lovely hotel that I would stay at again.
    Magical location and facility.

    Hotel La Palma overlooks Lake Maggiore with magical views. The hotel boasts four stars and has a lakeside pool ( heated in season), a huge rooftop hot tub, spa services, bathrobes and slippers, The buffet breakfast was good with efficient if somewhat brusque service.
    Beautiful hotel in a perfect location

    Stayed 2 nights here and loved the central location! We parked in a lot across from the hotel, which was a little sketchy but overall fine, and we were able to walk to all of our dinners and activities during the day, which was a huge bonus! The room was bright and clean, with a great view of the lake from our balcony. There were several large tour groups staying the same time we were, which made for a crowded breakfast. The food was just okay, nothing special, and the layout was a bit weird. The location and rooms/views are definitely the highlights of this hotel!

    Although it takes us 24 hours almost to get here from Australia, once here it is worth every minute. Stefano and his lovely family and staff do a fantastic job of trying to keep all the guests happy. Not an easy task with so many guests. Alessandra and the team of the front desk are always ready to oblige. Breakfast is fantastic and the rooftop is a real treat. The massages are wonderful and the salt room is something you don't get at many hotels and very relaxing. This is our 3rd stay and we will return as you "de-stress in Stresa" at the Hotel La Palma. Keep up the good work.
    Nice hotel with some drawbacks.

    3 couples stayed 3 nights in the La Palma recently. There are good and not so good elements which should be considered when booking this hotel. The good: the location is right on the lake, the hotel is modern and clean, the sky bar is a must and the lake side pool is nice. The not so good: the hotel has an annex, one of our couples ended up out back, the staff is a little on the surly side, the hotel is popular with conferences and package tours, it can be crowded, one night we were relegated to the back of the sky bar by a conference and the next night the pool was reserved for a special occaision. Our room was warm and stuffy. When we called the front desk about air conditioning, we were told it had been tuned off. To be fair, it was in the 70's at night but opening the doors meant letting in the bugs and street noise.We had to move down the street to the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromees because the La Palma was fully booked our last night. We would give that hotel priority over the La Palma if we visit Stresa again.
