The staff very friendly and helpful to us especially Ana. Walking distance to Piazza, great wine bars, and restaurants. We were fascinated by Sacri Monti, what a gem find. Never realized like this existed since 500 years ago and there's 7 of them in the Piedmont area!
Breakfast is fabulous and can't beat the awesome view from our balcony!

We loved the town, the hotel and 5e intimacy of the area. We had been there twenty years before and always wanted to go back. We loved the walking , the atmosphere, the restaurants and the people. It’s a beautiful area.

Orta San Giulio is a little hidden gem in the North of Italy. I booked a bit by coincidence and I was very positively surprised. The old center is a very nice place to stroll around and the Piazza Motta is a great place to enjoy one of the terraces.

It is a lovey attractive lake with a very pretty island accessible by ferries from all sound the lakeside villages. San Giuliano is quite beautiful but is a victim of its success because it is difficult to access having to park some way out and walk and is of course very touristy. There are lots of narrow streets and boutiques and some super restaurants. A romantic place. The Venus restaurant was excellent right by the ferry port and the perfect setting for a cocktail and sumptuous meal.

Orta San Giulio is a stunning little lake-side town, full of character, natural beauty and Italian charm. There is tons to do, including boat rides, water sports, private beaches, walks etc. and just enough restaurants to keep you entertained with fabulous food.

Beautiful little town in the Italian lakes.
Beautiful little town in the Italian lakes. The town is perfect for a relaxed break. There is opportunity for watersports, restaurants and bars as well as swimming in the lake and hiking in the hills and mountains nearby.
You cannot park in the centre of town, so be aware that you will need to walk luggage down to your hotel if you are staying in the centre. We got the train in from Milan, which was very easy and a much cheaper option.

I enjoyed walking around the lake, it was very relaxing.
I enjoyed walking around the lake, it was very relaxing. The lake water was clean and clear with some ducks always swimming on the lake.
The boat ride from Orta San Giulio to Isola San Giulio was short, but there is no social distancing in the boat (I would have avoided it next time).
Sacro Monte di Orta is a must-go, if you enjoy some walking on natural path and also seeing some chapels. Magnificient view from the top to see Isola San Giulio.

The location is perfect, in the historic center of Orta San Giulio, just steps to ferries, restaurants, cafes with a stunning view of Isla San Giulio. The apartment is quiet and fully equipped with all modern conveniences. We enjoyed cooking here. The hosts were friendly and exceedingly accommodating, even giving us a ride to the train station. We will return in summer to enjoy our own little deck for swimming in the lake.
My room was cute with access to the lake terrace. I even had a bathtub and a multi jet shower. The bed for my personal taste could have been a little softer. Breakfast was simple and descent. Reception staff was amazing! What's important to know, is that you have limited access to the Hotel by car. The way there is very narrow and for smaller cars only at a certain time a day. It has car parks a little further away tho.
Stylish period room in a quiet, vehicle-free backstreet, a 2 minute walk from the main plazza/port. Fabulous shops including a wonderful breakfast cafe, The Palace, and a lovely family restaurant Ca'Mea, both a minute away on foot. A great base to unwind.
Note, that this is a satellite building, with superb staff located at the Leon D'Oro Hotel in the main Plazza.
Where do I start... The rooms were glorious with beautiful antique furniture, the grounds were beautiful and historical, and the hosts have created a magical atmosphere here which feels like it's taken out of a movie. If you don't stay here while you're in Italy, the loss is truly yours, we will definitely be returning!
A hotel in the centre of the village. Excellent breakfast but needed warm clothing as restaurant is on the roof and early morning in late September is not so warm! Same applied to the excellent evening meal in the roof restaurant. (Note the times in the internet are wrong - the restaurant opens at 19.30, not 19.00).
The 3rd floor room was very spacious and had a balcony with a great view over the lake. We also appreciated the welcome gift in the form of a bowl of fruit. The staff were all very friendly and helpful about restaurant recommendations and how to get around Orta San Giulio and see various sights.
Best place I have ever stayed in my life. The location is absolutely amazing! Literally a few steps from the lake with private access. Even though the weather didn't help us at all it was worth it. The bathroom is elegant and spacious (very rare when it comes to Italy).
The location was excellent, sitting atop the lake with spectacular views of the island. The hotel staff was very friendly and the service for breakfast and dinner was quite attentive. The restaurant was especially good and the food was terrific.
The location was unbelievable, outstanding. The view and all the area exceeded all expectations. The lake, the town square, Isola San Giulio and Sacro Monte are a perfect summary of Italian beaty. All the people there are nice and kind...
Location was excellent, right in the middle of town. Piera was easy to work and communicate with. Apartment is very spacious even for family of 5. Nice partial view of the lake. Would stay here again if visiting orta san Giulio.
We had wonderful four days at Lago d’Orte, the accommodation in Hotel Bocciolo is excellent, the room was spacious and clean. The restaurant served very good food and the breakfast buffet was very good.
Perla the manager at breakfast was amazing! I cannot rate Perla’s care highly enough! So helpful and I am so appreciative for her welcome! The room was very central to orta san giulio and ideal!
Service standard and elegance were perfection. Every effort has been made to provide a beautiful historic building with modern conveniences. The town of Orta San Giulio is magical.
Everything was wonderful !
Great hospitality, great location, lake view. Good restaurant at the hotel.
Delicious breakfast.
All the people are very friendly.
We will come back!!
Incredibly cosy apartments with breathtaking view, very friendly owner who is always ready to help. Thank you so much! The best place to stay in Orta san Giulio.
