Hotel Serenella

Hotel Serenella is a family-run 3-star hotel located in Feriolo, a hamlet of Baveno on Lake Maggiore, about 200 metres from the lakeshore. The property, directly managed by the owning family, caters to both couples and families with children, thanks to the availability of triple and quadruple rooms alongside the classic double rooms.

The hotel’s 14 rooms are air-conditioned and feature a private bathroom with hairdryer, satellite TV and carefully chosen furnishings; the Double Superior Room stands out for its private balcony, while the Quadruple Room offers enough space for an entire family. In the morning guests find an Italian buffet breakfast, while the in-house restaurant serves local dishes and Italian classics, also appreciated by guests not staying at the property.

The location makes it easy to reach Stresa, Verbania and the Swiss border, as well as the Borromean Islands, and is particularly loved by couples, who rate the area’s location 8.5. Private parking is free but with limited spaces, so it’s advisable to book in advance, especially during the summer months when tourist traffic around the lake increases significantly.

Location & what to see

Hotel Serenella is located in Feriolo, the lakeside hamlet of Baveno on Lake Maggiore, about 200 metres from the shore. It’s a quiet, residential area, with small restaurants and bars along the main street, away from the traffic of Baveno’s centre but still convenient for reaching the lake’s main points of interest.

Verbania-Pallanza railway station is about 1.6 km away, while Baveno’s station can be reached in about 3 km; Milan Malpensa Airport is about 36 km away, roughly a forty-minute drive. Stresa, with its lakeside promenade and departure point for the Borromean Islands, is a few minutes’ drive away, as are Verbania and the Swiss border, convenient for those wishing to visit Canton Ticino for the day.

Nature lovers can reach the Val Grande National Park, about 3.9 km away, one of Europe’s largest wilderness parks, ideal for hikes in spring and summer. Those who prefer more curated greenery can visit the Villa Taranto Botanical Gardens, about 6.8 km away, while Villa Pallavicino Park, at 8 km, with its animals and English-style gardens, is a destination also suited to families with children. In summer, the lake itself, with its beaches and ferries to the islands, remains the area’s main attraction, while in the cooler months walks along the lakeside promenades of Baveno and Stresa offer a good balance between activity and relaxation.
