Overview
Araba Fenice is 4-star hotel with swimming pool and gourmet restaurant, situated directly on Lake Iseo. It offers beautiful views from its terraces and many of the rooms. Araba Fenice Hotel is set in an elegant building, dating back to the 19th century, with impressive architecture. Rooms offer free Wi-Fi and Sky TV. They have been completely refurbished yet still maintain their historic style. Iseo is a 30-minute walk from the Araba Fenice, or a shorter ride on one of the bikes available at the hotel. The little town of Pilzone is just 5 minutes’ walk away and there you can also find a train station. The property organises boat excursions, visits to the Franciacorta wine cellars and to various other destinations. Infinity Pool Adults Only directly on the lake Breakfast is always served on the veranda on the lake. There are two restaurants; one is the Casual Dining and Loung Bar "Terrazza 1841" with seafood, crudités, gourmet pizzas, paella and sophisticated cocktails directly on the lakeside veranda, while the second is the "Bella Iseo" restaurant with regional typical cuisine.

“A little bit of luxury by the lake. Simply perfect.”
Gorgeous location by the lake with a choice of 2 pools and a jacuzzi. The room was beautiful with a large lake view window (we didn’t have a balcony because of our choice of room due to budget, but it didn’t spoil the experience at all). Everywhere was spotlessly clean and beautifully presented. The decor was modern and at the same time so Italian. The staff were helpful and had brilliant English which put our Italian to shame. We booked because it was my husband’s big birthday and they looked after us very well. We would definitely book again.

This hotel is definitely worth a visit !! You will want to stay for more than 1 night though.. The rooms, pool, staff and view are brilliant 👏 The local village (Pilzone) is quite basic but Iseo is beautiful.

“Wonderful surprise to find this lovely very reasonably priced hotel with fabulous location, staff, food & ambiance.”
Fabulous location with wonderful view of the lake from our room. Staff were wonderful & helpful. Initial concern that location wasn’t in the centre of town wasn’t a problem because we had a car.

“Fantastic hotel with lovely facilities and incredible views”
Fantastic hotel with two great pools and easy access to the lake. The staff are very attentive and the hotel has two restaurants on sight. I only ate at one of the restaurants, but it was lovely.

“Elegant lake front hotel with a beautiful view.”
Newly renovated elegant hotel directly on the lake. Beautiful views from the room and terrace. Room was comfortable and although small, well organized with sufficient storage. Really appreciated the efficient air conditioning during the heat wave. Enjoyed the breakfast and lounge terrace directly on the water.

“Beautiful hotel on Lake Iseo with Terrific Chef!”
The location of this hotel is stunning, sitting right on the water's edge at Lake Iseo, a beautiful narrow lake surrounded by impressive mountains. The very best part of the hotel is the wonderful chef at the new Ize Restaurant where we dined superbly on a terrace literally overhanging the water, with stunning views. The exquisite vegetarian menu was without doubt the best we had on our subsequent three week trip to a range of very nice hotels and restaurants.
