Hotel Fiorentino is a family-run 2-star hotel in the heart of Stresa, in Piedmont, just 200 metres from the ferry port on the shores of Lake Maggiore. The property is known above all for its in-house restaurant, which serves traditional Piedmontese dishes in a simple, genuine setting.
The rooms, available in several types ranging from single to quadruple, are bright and air-conditioned; some feature a balcony with views over the mountains or the historic centre. The bathrooms are private and come with toiletries and a hairdryer, while WiFi is free in the common areas.
The location is one of the features guests appreciate most, with restaurants, bars and shops just a short walk away and Stresa railway station about 650 metres away. The hotel suits those looking for a practical, informal base to explore Lake Maggiore, travel by boat to the Borromean Islands and enjoy the town’s atmosphere without giving up a good traditional meal.
Hotel Fiorentino offers seven room types, from the Single designed for solo travellers to the Quadruple suited to larger families, along with double, matrimonial and triple options. All rooms share a private bathroom with toiletries and a hairdryer, air conditioning, heating, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels and free WiFi.
The main differences lie in size, ranging from 10 sqm for the Single to 18 sqm for the Triple and Quadruple, and in the view: some superior rooms overlook the historic centre or the surrounding mountains, while the Deluxe Double has a private balcony. Rooms with multiple single beds are designed for groups of friends or families needing flexible bed configurations.
