"Loved our stay at this gorgeous condo. Communications and videos were very helpful. My one suggestion is to provide the narrow width of the drive up to the unit at the very start of the booking process because if we had a larger rental car we would never have made it up that driveway, especially the left after the overpass—very tight. We originally reserved a van but changed it to a smaller Peaugot at the last minute. Thank goodness we were able to do this! Other than that—everything was lovely...

"My friend and I stayed for five nights at Hotel Flora and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The hotel is situated outside the central part of Stresa, and is a lovely 15-20 minute walk into town along the lake promenade, and is close to both the train station and a nearby bus stop, making it a convenient location to have as your base for travelling around the area. The breakfast provided each morning has a wide variety of options to accommodate various dietary requirements and was a great way to start each day. What really makes this hotel special is the staff. Everyone we met was friendly and welcoming - especially the three ladies at the reception desk. All of them always took the time to help us with our questions, provide directions or other information; and genuinely seemed happy to see us each day. They are a true asset to the hotel and our stay was more memorable because of them. If we are ever lucky enough to be in this area again, I would definitely return to this hotel."
