San Carlo

Super good restaurant with a short menu (which is a good thing, as all the dishes are very well curated) and with the highest quality for ingredients. The recipes are mostly based on the Piedmontese tradition, but always with some creative variations. The presentation of every dish is prepared with an obsessive attention to details, such as the combinations of colors, flavors, textures and aromas. I didn't know this restaurant until I found it by chance, but I am very happy of stumbling into it. The personnel is really well prepared and professional, they are all are very knowledgeable about the dishes and the wines on the menu, which they know very well, and at the same time they are absolutely friendly and kind. The restaurant is part of a hotel (which I didn't have the opportunity of trying) and it is located on a terrace looking upon the Lago Maggiore, with a fantastic view from above. It must be said that it is not cheap, but I will definitely come back, thanks!

Very friendly staff. The rooms with a view of the lake are magnificent. The rooms themselves are spacious, the bathroom sufficient and not too small. The breakfast buffet was comprehensive. Breakfast on the terrace overlooking the lake is priceless! We were there on 19 September 2018 and the weather was fantastic. The photos show the view from our room.
