Albergo in Stresa

No stress at Stresa

Two stars with 5 star hospitality at yesterday’s prices.

Stresa on Largo Maggiore has the charm of finer times so if you cannot afford the palaces of eons past pull up a stump and settle at Albergo Luina.

A hostelry of clean serviced rooms perched above the shopping and victuallers area close to the action.

This is one street back from the main lakeside Corso and is a clean machine of almost Teutonic precocity without a speck of dust to be found.

No lake views here but the street scene makes up for any visual loss as the cobblestone alleys provide a playground.

Superb Lombard ristorante food from the kitchen right at the front door served with simple condiments.
