Hotel Moderno is a 3-star hotel in the centre of Premeno, at an altitude of 850 metres, with distant views of Lake Maggiore and about 12 km from Verbania.
The rooms, all with private bathroom, face either the garden or the village of Premeno; from the upper floors the lake can be glimpsed on the horizon. The range includes single, double, triple and quadruple options, some with balcony and air conditioning, designed both for solo travellers and larger families.
The in-house restaurant is open all day and serves local dishes alongside homemade cakes, artisanal ice cream and fresh pasta; the bar stays open until 11:00 pm. The 5,000 m² garden, with an outdoor dining area and a sun terrace with free sun loungers, is one of the property’s strong points, as is the indoor lounge with sofa, TV and piano available to guests. Private parking is free and included in the stay.
The room offering at Hotel Moderno ranges from the 13 m² Economy Single up to the 24 m² Triple and Quadruple, passing through various Double/Twin room options. All room types have a private bathroom, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, wardrobe and parquet flooring, elements that guarantee a consistent level of comfort throughout the property.
What sets one room apart from another is mainly the view and a few distinctive details: some rooms look out towards the mountains, others offer a balcony with a glimpse of Lake Maggiore, while the Double/Twin room is the only one with a bathtub. The Superior rooms, both single and double, add air conditioning and a panoramic balcony, making them the best choice for anyone looking for a bit of extra comfort during their stay.
At 24 m², the Triple Room is among the largest in the property and looks out towards the surrounding mountains. It has an en-suite bathroom, flat-screen TV, telephone and an armchair, a furnishing detail not found in the other room types, making it comfortable for longer stays for up to three people.
This 18 m² double room is the only room in the property with a bathtub instead of just a shower, plus a bidet and toiletries. It has mountain views, parquet flooring and the option to choose between a double bed or two separate single beds.
Designed for solo travellers, this 15 m² single room offers a private bathroom with shower, bidet and hairdryer, plus a spacious wardrobe and mountain views. Larger than the Economy version, it strikes a balance between practicality and space.
The most compact room in the hotel, at 13 m², designed for those looking for an essential, budget-friendly option. It still has a private bathroom with shower and hairdryer, wardrobe and parquet flooring, without giving up basic comfort.
Unlike the standard double room, this 18 m² version includes a private balcony and can accommodate up to four people. A bathroom with shower, bidet and toiletries complete a more versatile option for families or small groups.
The largest of the double rooms at 19 m², the Superior stands out for its balcony with a view of Lake Maggiore and air conditioning, a unique combination among the available room types. An option designed for those who want to enjoy the view from the room as well.
A superior version of the single room, with a balcony offering a lake view and air conditioning: two details that clearly set it apart from the standard Single Room, while keeping the same 15 m² size.
With 24 m² and three combined beds between singles and a double, the Quadruple is the roomiest option in the hotel, designed for groups or larger families who want to share the same space without giving up room to move.
Hotel Moderno offers guests a 5,000 m² garden with a dining area, sun terrace and free sun loungers, as well as a common lounge with sofa, TV and piano for relaxing moments. Those who love to be active can enjoy bike tours, hiking trails, table tennis and an on-site tennis court, with a golf course within 3 km.
The in-house restaurant serves local cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with specialities such as homemade cakes, ice cream and pasta; breakfast can also be served in the room. The bar is open until 11:00 pm.
General facilities include a lift, daily housekeeping, luggage storage, laundry service and free WiFi throughout the property. Rooms are equipped with a private bathroom, complimentary toiletries, hairdryer and flat-screen TV with satellite channels, while private parking is free and available on site.
Hotel Moderno stands in the heart of Premeno, a village at 850 metres above Lake Maggiore, in a quiet residential area surrounded by woods and small village shops. Just steps from the entrance there are already some useful spots for lunch or breakfast, a sign of how the property is woven into the everyday life of the village rather than isolated on the outskirts.
Ristorante La Stazione is just 100 metres away, while Caffè Duse Alimentari is 150 metres away; for a more structured meal, La Genzianella can be reached in a few minutes on foot, about 1.1 km away. Verbania, on the lake, is about 12 km away, and from there the connection develops towards the rest of the Lake Maggiore basin. Those arriving by car from Milan Malpensa Airport cover about 37 km; the nearest railway stations, Porto Valtravaglia and Caldè, are both about 6 km away on the other side of the lake.
Its mid-slope position makes Premeno a good base in both summer and autumn: in the warmer season you can walk the trails of the nearby Val Grande National Park, a wild area about 7-8 km away, or head down to the Villa Taranto Botanical Gardens, about 5 km away, among the best-known botanical collections on Lake Maggiore. Mountain lovers can head towards Il Colle, about 6 km away, while those looking for views and historic sites will find nearby churches and sanctuaries reachable by car in just a few minutes.
Reviews particularly praise the friendliness of the staff, rated 8.8, and the cleanliness of the rooms, appreciated with 8.3. The value for money (8.2) and free WiFi (8.5) also score well. Facilities and comfort remain at decent levels, never dropping below a solid pass mark.
