The outstanding feature of our stay was the brilliant help and support of the staff, who helped us organise an airport bus when an unexpected train strike was on.
We were so grateful and impressed.

The room was small but clean. Staff was very gentle and professional. There is a parking where you can park your car for 15€, as there is not a lot of place where to park in the city.
Ive had a good stay.

Great place and nice hotel
The hotel was an excellent choice for a weekend trip to Stresa. The location is central and close to the beach, but not next to a busy road. An iron was not available and there is no experience with breakfast, but otherwise the service and accommodation are really smooth. You could park your car for an extra fee in the parking garage under the hotel, really easy!

Fair, but you can get better for same price
Fair hotel. Confortable enough for a good sleep. However wifi was not working in our floor, and they told us it would be solved during the day, but nothing was done ans no excuse was asked for it.

6 day stay in Stresa.
Well we are on a 6 week tour on our motorcycle and we chose our hotels as we go from place to place. We were in Brig Switzerland when we chose the Hotel Boston Stresa what a great find this was the place is really nicely decorated very clean and bright. The staff are very helpful and nothing seems to much trouble if you need something. The bedrooms are well appointed and of a good size with balconies. We didn't have breakfast here as we are retired and to be honest we don't normally get up until 9-30 ISH so we normally eat around 11am. The hotel has underground parking which for us was great as we are touring on our motorcycle it costs 8 euros a day and it's safe and secure. The hotel is 2 mins walk from the lake front of Maggiore and 10 mins walk into the main shopping and eating areas. You can get ferries to the islands on the lake and there are plenty of places to eat out lakeside. The hotel is also only 10 mins walk from the railway station and a Conad Supermarket so all in all this is a great place to stay.We will recommend this to our friends and family if they come to Italy. We had a great time here and would certainly stay here again if coming to Maggiore.

Badly let down
We stayed for 3 nights. The welcome was warm and the staff were very nice. The room was clean and spacious and we were fortunate to have a corner room with a view of the lake. Breakfast was good. However, for 2 of our 3 days there was no hot water in the bathroom so we couldn’t shower, the internet connection is intermittent and the hotel doesn’t provide an iron and ironing board (even via housekeeping). There are no yea-making facilities in the room so we couldn’t even boil a kettle for hot water in the sink. On each day were assured that the water was fixed shortly after we left to go out for the day (around 9-10am, so not late). The location is good if you don't want to pay the silly prices for lake-front property, but the issues with the basics let this hotel down quite badly. We weren’t offered a discount for the severe inconvenience.

Unser Zimmer lag im Neubau des Hotels. Das Zimmer sehr sauber und ruhig. Die Glas-Duschabtrennung war nicht befestigt, die Diagonalstütze habe ich mit eigenem Werkzeug angebracht. Danach war Duschen kein Problem. Der Waschbeckenabfluss mit Kugelschreiber-Mechanik war blockiert, das sollte schnellstens behoben werden. Hotelfrühstück sehr gut, Empfang etwas sehr sachlich, Gesamteindruck des Hotels war sehr gut. Die Lage "in der zweiten Reihe" ist sehr altstadtnah, es ist alles fußläufig zu erreichen
