The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with a large bathroom, but the old-fashioned bath with a clumsy shower setup was a surprise. The rooms come with a delightful balcony and excellent amenities like a robe and slippers. However, the value for money may not be the best.

My stay at the hotel was truly special. The rooms were beautifully appointed and very romantic, providing a luxurious setting for a relaxing retreat. However, not all rooms have baths, so be clear about your preferences if a rejuvenating bubble bath is a daily indulgence. The service was impeccable, with a keen attention to details that enhanced my overall experience. The location, with enchanting views of the lake, offered a magical setting for exploration and relaxation. The dining experience, while limited in options, delivered authentic dishes in a charming garden setting. The facilities were top-notch, adding to the overall luxurious atmosphere of the stay.

The hotel offers beautifully appointed rooms of varying uniqueness, some with spacious baths but lacking proper shower amenities.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were very spacious and well appointed with beautiful antiques, including a lovely private balcony/terrace. The decor was average, but the room was impressively spacious. The only drawback was the old-fashioned bath with a clumsy shower setup and no proper hook for comfortable showering. The service was exceptional, with the staff being so helpful and going above and beyond, making my experience truly special. The location couldn't have been better, offering stunning views of the lake and being just a short walk away from the charming village of Orta. Although the dining experience was only fair, the hotel's facilities were top-notch. A fantastic stay overall, with a few minor hiccups.
