Hotel San Rocco Orta San Giulio

At the sublime San Rocco hotel the key-word “panoramic” is perfectly combined with peace of mind and relaxation. The hotel is indeed located right by the lake of one of the most beautiful, romantic, northern lakes in Italy: Lake Orta, which was once described by the French writer, Honoré de Balzac, as “a gray pearl” inside a “green treasure chest”; the hotel seems to have been built to admire this gray pearl. From the large windows of the restaurant, the breakfast room or the lounge room, you can enjoy a magnificent view on the surrounding luxuriant shores and the isle of San Giulio, right in the middle of the lake. For 150 years this historical building hosted a monastery which was transformed into a prestigious hotel in the late sixties. The main building features modern-style, generously sized rooms with parquet floor, while the “Villa Gippini” features classical-style, large rooms with marble bathrooms and marble floor. Sophisticated Piedmont specialities are served at the elegant, panoramic restaurant.
