Our second visit. Rooms still great and had even been upgraded. Very friendly and helpful staff and all fluent in several languages it seemed. Fantastic location on the lake., although not great for the lake boat service at this time of year. Good parking under hotel. Restaurant was disappointing this time - expensive, rushed through meal, limited menu, stuffy restaurant... more

I was thrilled to be able to travel to Italy again this year. Every time I come to this beautiful country I always come to Lago Maggiore and stay in my favorite place, Hotel Cannero. It truly feels like I have come home every time I step off of the ferry. The staff are exceptionally warm and welcoming. They attend... more

5th visit to hotel which proved, as before, to be excellent. Family provide perfect service and attention. A credit to the efforts of the family that it achieves such high standards. One negative is that I find the food quality in the restaurant not of the same standard as the rest of the hotel's services. Location is perfect and given... more

We have just returned from the Hotel Cannero. Many hotels could learn a lesson from the way this hotel is run. The family owned operation runs smoothly, yet gives the impresson of staying in a large, comfortable home. Personal touches such as plants, cut flowers, books and magazines are everywhere and contribute to the overall feeling of comfort. We had... more

We stayed at Hotel Cannero as part of our Italian honeymoon, and it more than met expectations. If you are arriving by public transport, make sure you get to Stresa by 3pm, or you could miss the last ferry of the day. After a lengthy journey along the lake, the ferry pulls into Cannero Riviera and the hotel is directly... more

One of the few hotels I would return to, what a wonderful find, the position is gorgeous right on lakeside opposite ferry stop, so very convenient, a pretty harbour and small friendly village, the staff were outstanding and the food excellant, there were plenty of dining options outside but we just felt so at home and satisfied to eat in... more

I've stayed at many places on Lago Maggiore but this, so far, is the best! I may never try anywhere else! This is one of the most efficiently run hotels I've ever been to. Maria watches over her property like a Mother Hen looking after her brood. When we were there, the Antique Rolls Royce Club of Great Britian was... more

We spent 3 nights in this beautiful hotel and wish we had stayed longer. The building is tastefully but imaginatively decorated and despite being quite large it maintains the personal and friendly feel of a family run hotel. The waterfront setting is magnificent and the breakfasts were pure indulgence. It is a big world with so many places to visit... more

Often you encounter 4 stars hotels that barely deserve a 3 stars rating, however, Hotel Cannero well deserves its 4 stars rating and even could go for 5. Our stay was wonderful. The location is beautiful, just on the lake, no traffic noise under the window, just the sounds of the waves and during the evenings laughter of happy people... more
