We were driving past and looking for somewhere to stop overnight, have some dinner, and relax. To be honest, that small hotel next to the lake exceeded all our expectations. The room balcony overlooked the lake directly, and the restaurant food was absolutely amazing. The beef tartare and asparagus risotto were probably some of the best I’ve ever eaten! Can’t wait to be back in the area again — we’ll definitely be staying there over and over again.

The hotel is in a lovely location, right by the lake. The rooms are comfortable and the breakfast is very good. The restaurant is excellent, we had two great meals there. A big thank you to Massimo and all the staff who treated us extremely well and were very friendly and welcoming.
