Beautiful hotel
Stylish hotel, such a Beautiful hotel, everything was 5 star. Old fashioned charm. The pool area was great with the big pool, looked really nice with the gold pattern and jacuzzi. You shouldn’t miss the connection to the sister hotel and a swim in the indoor pool over there.

Superb hotel, and we will certainly be back
The hotel is superb.
The location is good, you can walk to Baveno and Stresa.
The whole hotel just feels very classy, the staff are extremely attentive and it's exceptionally well priced.
We cant work out why it's not a 5 star hotel.
We will certainly be coming back.

Exceeded my expectations in every way. Perfect place to explore the lakes. Pool has an amazing view. Staff are helpful. Only small point is the rooms are very light as there are no blackout curtains or blinds (not sure if this is all rooms) so if you are a light sleeper it might be an issue.

Very grand property and has access to sister hotel Dino, to allow use of swimming pools, kids games area, gym, both bars & live music.
Add ons were a bit expensive but nonetheless we had a great stay.
Sparse on power outlets in our room was the only drawback

We want to come back!
Me and my wife had a fantastic stay at Hotel Simplon by Lago Maggiore. Very nice staff and manager at the desk; smiling and attentive. We got a great room with sea view. Impeccable cleaning! Clea pool, no hassle with getting a space. Very green and lush garden. Tranquility. Nice poolbar and serveral areas for sitting 7 reading / having a dring (upper terrace; lower teracce; pool bar area; garden etc). Fantastic hotel bar and bartender! Everything you need at breakfast. Just to know on beforehand: there is no direct lake contact from Hotel Simplon then you have to use the sister hotel Grand Hotel Dino (can be reached with the private 200 m underground tunnel between the hotels). Note that the Hotel gym is very big and well equipped but cost Euro 12 every time you visit (no problem if you know it for your travel budget). Parking was very convenient inside the hotel area but remember it will cost Euro 20 for every night you have it parked there. We loved our stay.

Big grand hotel, be aware of extra costs
It’s a big old grand hotel which has been well maintained. It is huge and links up to the neighbouring Hotel Dino via a 400m underground walkway. This is where you need to go if you want to use the gym, which is also huge and very well equipped, probably the largest hotel gym I’ve seen. Unfortunately you need to pay €12 a day to access it which is annoying when it says the hotel has a gym. Also, as is sadly becoming more common, breakfast is extra at a pricey €25 pp. Also parking is extra at €20 per day! (It should state this on the property details page when booking) So when you book a night as a couple at €200 thinking it’s a good deal for hotel, parking and gym it is actually going to cost you €282. For that reason I wouldn’t stay again (we didn’t pay for breakfast and just got yoghurt form the supermarket opposite).
