Location & what to see

Hotel Bocciolo is located on Via Domodossola, a short walk from the shores of Lake Orta, in a quiet residential area on the edge of the historic centre of Orta San Giulio, a village overlooking the lake with the famous Isola di San Giulio. The character of the area is typical of the lakeside villages of Piedmont, with stone houses and alleys running down towards the water.

In terms of connections, Orta-Miasino railway station is just 550 metres away, while Piazza Motta, the beating heart of the village, can be reached in about 1.5 km. Milan Malpensa Airport is 28 km away, and Linate Airport is 75 km away. By car, Stresa and Lake Maggiore are about 40 minutes away, while Varese is 54 km away. Nearby there are restaurants such as Bocciolo and Luci sul Lago, both a few hundred metres away.

Guests can walk in under a kilometre to the Sacro Monte di Orta, a UNESCO site with its frescoed chapels set in the woods, or take a boat trip to Isola di San Giulio. In summer the lake is suited to canoeing and walks along the shores, while in the cooler months the surrounding hills offer hiking and horse riding trails. Within a radius of 12-13 km there are also the Parco dei Lagoni di Mercurago and the Sanctuary of Boca, suitable destinations for a half-day excursion.
