Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were quite impressive, with modern amenities, a lovely lake view, and a fantastic bathroom, but the strong cleaning product smell was a downside. The service was a bit lacking, as we felt ignored at times. The location was superb, right in the heart of Baveno with stunning views and a fantastic rooftop bar. The dining experience had its highs and lows, with excellent food but some room for improvement. Overall, a stay with its highs and lows.
