Croce Bianca is a 3-star hotel in the heart of Omegna, overlooking Lake Orta, in Piedmont. The property occupies a building on the town’s main street, just a few metres from the lakefront promenade and the railway station.
The rooms are simple and functional, with carpeted floors and wooden furniture; they feature a private bathroom, air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a minibar, with some room types offering a direct view of the lake or the town. The range includes options for solo travellers, couples and families, from double rooms to a triple, up to the version with a balcony overlooking the water.
In the morning a buffet breakfast is served with continental and Italian options, while the in-house restaurant offers dishes from the local tradition. The hotel is especially appreciated for its central location, within walking distance of Omegna’s shops, bars and restaurants, and makes a practical base for exploring Lake Orta and the natural areas of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola.

Croce Bianca offers five room types, all with private bathroom, air conditioning, flat-screen TV and minibar, designed to suit different needs, from the solo traveller to a family looking for more beds. The finishes are simple, with carpeted floors and wooden furniture, in keeping with the style of a traditionally run city hotel.
Among the available options, the rooms with a view of Lake Orta stand out, along with the one with a balcony overlooking the water and the Triple Room, designed for groups of three with a double bed and an extra single bed. For solo travellers there is the Single Room, the most compact in the property at 10 square metres, while the doubles and the triple reach 16-18 square metres in size.
The most compact of the double rooms, at 16 square metres, overlooking the town rather than the lake. It can be configured with two single beds or one large double bed, depending on the needs of the stay.
Larger than the city-view version, at 18 square metres, with a direct view over Lake Orta. Here too the beds can be configured as a double or two singles.
The smallest room type in the property, at 10 square metres, designed for a single guest. Essential in its furnishings, it is the most affordable option for those travelling alone for work or leisure.
Designed for three people, at 18 square metres, with a lake view. It is the only room in the property that can be configured either with a double bed plus an extra single, or with three separate single beds.
