Hotel Carillon is a 3-star hotel in Baveno, on Lake Maggiore, the only one in the area built directly on the lake shore with a 120-metre private beach.
The property is designed for those seeking outdoor days and lakeside relaxation: from the beach guests can swim or practise windsurfing, sailing and water skiing, while the private garden offers a quiet spot between swims. All the main rooms overlook the lake and the surrounding mountains, with balcony, air conditioning, satellite TV and private bathroom; room types range from the more compact double to the quadruple for families, with deluxe options for those seeking more recently renovated spaces.
Room service, the in-house bar and free Wi-Fi complete the offer, while private parking makes things easier for guests arriving by car. The lakefront location puts restaurants and cafés just a few steps away, and allows guests to reach Stresa, Verbania and the Borromean Islands in a short time, making the hotel a good base for visiting Lake Maggiore as a couple or with family.
Hotel Carillon offers seven room types, almost all overlooking the lake and the surrounding mountains, spread across double, triple, quadruple and family solutions. The lake-view rooms feature a balcony, air conditioning, satellite TV and private bathroom with shower, ranging from the 15 sqm Double/Twin Room on the ground floor to the 25 sqm Quadruple Room with bunk bed and double bed.
Alongside these, the property offers Deluxe and Family rooms designed for those travelling in groups, with double bed and single or bunk bed configurations to accommodate up to four people. In several room types guests can choose between a double bed or separate single beds, communicating their preference at the time of booking, so the accommodation can be adapted to the needs of couples, groups of friends or families with children.
At 17 sqm, this is the most compact of the property’s double rooms with lake view. The air-conditioned balcony offers a direct view over the water and the mountains, while the private bathroom has a shower. Guests can choose between a double bed or two single beds by requesting it at the time of booking.
Designed for three guests, this 20 sqm triple room is larger than the Superior and features three single beds, a panoramic balcony over the lake and a private bathroom with shower. A practical option for those travelling in small groups without giving up the view over the water.
The smallest of the lake-view rooms, at 15 sqm, is located on the ground floor, making it convenient for those who prefer to avoid stairs. The lake view is guaranteed here too, along with a private bathroom with shower and satellite TV.
At 25 sqm, this is the largest of the lake-view rooms, suitable for families of up to four thanks to the bunk bed combined with the double bed. Balcony, air conditioning and private bathroom with shower complete the amenities.
Deluxe room type designed for two guests, with a single large double bed. Compared to the lake-view rooms, this offers a more recently renovated space, ideal for those seeking an essential double room without giving up comfort.
Deluxe version of the triple room, with two beds – one double and one single – suitable for small groups or families with one child. A more contemporary alternative to the Triple Room with lake view.
