My room was cute with access to the lake terrace. I even had a bathtub and a multi jet shower. The bed for my personal taste could have been a little softer. Breakfast was simple and descent. Reception staff was amazing! What's important to know, is that you have limited access to the Hotel by car. The way there is very narrow and for smaller cars only at a certain time a day. It has car parks a little further away tho.

Orta San Giulio is a little hidden gem in the North of Italy. I booked a bit by coincidence and I was very positively surprised. The old center is a very nice place to stroll around and the Piazza Motta is a great place to enjoy one of the terraces.

It is a lovey attractive lake with a very pretty island accessible by ferries from all sound the lakeside villages. San Giuliano is quite beautiful but is a victim of its success because it is difficult to access having to park some way out and walk and is of course very touristy. There are lots of narrow streets and boutiques and some super restaurants. A romantic place. The Venus restaurant was excellent right by the ferry port and the perfect setting for a cocktail and sumptuous meal.

Beautiful little town in the Italian lakes.
Beautiful little town in the Italian lakes. The town is perfect for a relaxed break. There is opportunity for watersports, restaurants and bars as well as swimming in the lake and hiking in the hills and mountains nearby.
You cannot park in the centre of town, so be aware that you will need to walk luggage down to your hotel if you are staying in the centre. We got the train in from Milan, which was very easy and a much cheaper option.

I enjoyed walking around the lake, it was very relaxing.
I enjoyed walking around the lake, it was very relaxing. The lake water was clean and clear with some ducks always swimming on the lake.
The boat ride from Orta San Giulio to Isola San Giulio was short, but there is no social distancing in the boat (I would have avoided it next time).
Sacro Monte di Orta is a must-go, if you enjoy some walking on natural path and also seeing some chapels. Magnificient view from the top to see Isola San Giulio.

We had a really great stay at Aracoelie hotel
Firstly, the staff was very friendly. We had an important phone call before check-in time, and Eliana was very kind and helpful and did everything in her power to make it possible.
Furthermore, the hotel is located very central at a cosy square. We stayed in a superior double room and the room was very nice, specious and clean (We loved the balcony!!!). Also the breakfast was delicious and extensive.
Thank you for the amazing night
We got a very warm welcome from the hosts and it made us feel at home. For us this is what made or stay so much better. The hotel is a beautifully renovated old village house with an internal courtyard garden. The rooms are large and designed with thought. We enjoyed the big pool and Jacuzzi in the yard and even got some Lambrusco as an extra.
Nothing went well. We were switched from our original booking due to mechanical problems at the site. Then sent to another Piccolo site (Saint Catherines. This was totally charmless and a at a car's ride to the city centre. The room was complete devoid of any charm. The was no hot water, the room was cold and there were no blankets. Very Un
The hotel was very well located, right in the centre of San Giulian di Orta, so once you work out that the hotel is not accessible by car and that you need to use the nearby car park (10EUR/day), you're right in the thick of it.
Locanda di Orta is very clean, nicely decorated and annexed on to a Michelin star restaurant.
Where do I start... The rooms were glorious with beautiful antique furniture, the grounds were beautiful and historical, and the hosts have created a magical atmosphere here which feels like it's taken out of a movie. If you don't stay here while you're in Italy, the loss is truly yours, we will definitely be returning!
the view from the hotel terrace was spectacular. Unfortunately, our room "with easy access" did not have a view, but it suited our needs very well as we were travelling with our dog and the extra space was most useful. Outside our bedroom was a small terrace with table and two chairs where we could sit in the shade.
We knew already this hotel, we went back for its location just on the lake and the walking distance to the lovely village, the pool and the lake are both equally easy to access (we prefer swimming in the lake though!) and the parking in this location is certainly a plus!
Beautifully renovated hotel with suite-like, generous chambers and historic flair, located very centrally in the stunningly beautiful medieval town of Orta San Guilio. We strongly recommend a stay, in both in this marvelous location and magnificent hotel!
We were received and welcomed very friendly by Andrea and his mother. The apartment is well equipped and Andrea took great care to inform us about the ins and outs of the apartment and the possibilities of Orta San Giulio. We would like to come back!
The hotel was surprisingly excellent in so many ways - location is easily accessible, very friendly and courteous staff, lovely breakfast, beautiful, comfortable room with very a peaceful view! I love everything about this place. Highly recommended.
The host Stefano making sure that everything was fine for our stay. The view on the lake and the Isola is amazing. Leaving the building, you are in the central place of Orta San Giulio. From your apartment, you see the traffic of the shuttle boats.
The position of the hotel is amazing with views over the lake. We had a large room with a balcony looking sideways to the lake.
The staff were really welcoming and very helpful with very good english.
There was also a good breakfast offered.
The location was unbelievable, outstanding. The view and all the area exceeded all expectations. The lake, the town square, Isola San Giulio and Sacro Monte are a perfect summary of Italian beaty. All the people there are nice and kind...
Location was excellent, right in the middle of town. Piera was easy to work and communicate with. Apartment is very spacious even for family of 5. Nice partial view of the lake. Would stay here again if visiting orta san Giulio.
Incredible location and absolutely perfect hotel ! Made our dream holiday come true! Wonderful tub and bathroom fit for a queen but tucked into a cozy romantic little room overlooking the lake. Simply spectacular !
Service standard and elegance were perfection. Every effort has been made to provide a beautiful historic building with modern conveniences. The town of Orta San Giulio is magical.
Everything was wonderful !
Great hospitality, great location, lake view. Good restaurant at the hotel.
Delicious breakfast.
All the people are very friendly.
We will come back!!
Beautifully located apartment in historical building, right in the center of Orta San Giulio. Wide range of restaurants and bars nearby. Very nice landlord.
