Hotel Cannobio

Beautiful hotel with a beautiful view in a beautiful town. And what a great breakfast buffet!

The hotel is very well located in a beautiful historic building with a lovely view on the lake and the typical harbor. The staff was very kind and helpful when we arrived as we didn’t know how to get to the hotel by car because it’s pedestrian. We had 2 rooms with balcony and we enjoyed the view all the evening But the confort of the rooms and the service were not what we expected for a 4 stars hotel. There was no air conditioning even if it was the end of May with 25/28 degrees so the rooms were too hot for sleeping. In the morning the receptionist told us that we could open the windows… yes we did but it was still hot and so we could hear the noise from the street behind and from the train on the lakeside. All the night we had the light from the street lights as there was no curtain to stop it and from 5am we woke up because of the daylight in the room. At 6am I moved all the furniture from the balcony into my small room to be able to close the shutters in hope to be able to sleep more. I have to mention that in the evening I enjoyed the TV from the room next door to mine and then the snoring of my neighbors… we can hear everything that happen through the hotel in the rooms. The mattress were too hard and so painful for our backs but that can be ok for others. The cherry on the top of the cake : The breakfast was very disappointing and expensive for the standard quality of the products. In resume, it’s a 3 stars confort good for one night maximum not a 4 stars. The receptionist the day we leave made feel us not considered. We won’t go back to this place.

Hotel Cannobio is gem.
