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.

We booked a double room (2 people), but when we arrived there we were informed that they actually gave us the two floor apartment (usually booked by 4-6 people) for no additional charge! The view was the best view of the island you could ever get and it was so quiet all throughout the day and night. The location of the apartment was in the heart of the centre, 10 steps away from Piazza Motta. The staff were super friendly and responded on WhatsApp relatively fast for any of our concerns. They gave us a map with directions for what activities to do during our short stay. Their idea of a diffused hotel within the small city is very interesting. I can't help but give them a super good review!
The hotel garni Santa Caterina is on of the first hotels on the shores of Lake Orta, a short walk from the centre of Orta San Giulio. It offers a pleasant garden, and free snacks in the lounge.

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.

The apartment has been beautifully remodeled to include the charm of the original build, but with a respectful, modern touch. The color choices, the lighting, and the appliances all were very well thought out. The beds were extremely comfortable. The apartment is just above the local square, with a wonderful view of Isola San Giulio. The doors leading out to the balcony offer enough sound proofing that the activity on the square in the mornings was not bothersome.
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
Perfect Location. Clean Comfortable Room and friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was good. We had dinner at the Restaurant one night and the Food and service was excellent. Enjoyed that we where able to swim in the Lake of the porch of the Hotel. the boat stop is right next to Hotel. and there is lots of great Restaurants close by.
Best place I have ever stayed in my life. The location is absolutely amazing! Literally a few steps from the lake with private access. Even though the weather didn't help us at all it was worth it. The bathroom is elegant and spacious (very rare when it comes to Italy).
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!
Fabulous stay, the receptionist was super helpful, receiving us at a late hour and making our stay very relaxing. Beautiful hotel, fantastic team and the best possible location for trips to Orta, the lake and wider environment. Tip: fantastic restaurants nearby as well!
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!
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.
Location was right on the lake and opposite the island. There was a very good restaurant in the hotel which was open when others in town were not. We loved the decor and the fact that it had been owned by the same family for over 200 years.
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.
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.
The hotel is in a good location, easy walking distance to the lake. Ample secure parking. Very helpful staff on reception.
Room with small balcony overlooking the gardens.
Incredibly cosy apartments with breathtaking view, very friendly owner who is always ready to help. Thank you so much! The best place to stay in Orta san Giulio.
