Just want to say how pleased I was with my stay here. The room was spacious enough and clean, with an excellent shower in a new bathroom. Breakfast was more than ample with plenty of choice from a self serve buffet. We had excellent service throughout our stay, particularly from the breakfast lady whose name I never established!

Stresa is - as another reviewer posted - the most beautiful town on Lake Maggiore - that we saw anyway, Hotel Boston is a small, family run 3 star hotel just a few minutes walk from the beautiful lake and the charming town centre. We upgraded to a lake view, balcony room (303) and spent some magic moments between trips... More

Good location, but with basic facilities only recommend for very short stay. Staff pleasant and helpful, but the room cleaning falls short of the standard. Accumulated dust on the bedside tables, and fluff lying in the corners certainly does not inspire confidence in the overall state of the cleanliness. Breakfast included in the price, but after first day we gave... More

We enjoyed our 3 night stay as it was good value and a great location ( we personally think Stresa is the best lakeside location on Maggiore). As others have said the hotel and rooms are fine although room a little small. Bathroom is also good although shower is open ended so invariably water goes everywhere! Hotel is set back... More

Great place that I stayed at with a friend over the summer. Room was small but adequate, balcony for fresh air. Staff was very friendly and continental breakfast was more than just that; including made to order Italian coffee basics.

I booked this hotel last minute due to other hotels being full and was satisfied with the services it offered. As its not on the main road its location is quiet. Its only about a 5-8 minute walk into main stresa depending on how slow you walk. I stayed in a double room. It wasn't huge but suited me fine... More

Hotel Boston, for the price, was a perfect spot to stay the night before going to Milan Airport to leave Europe. It's not a 5 star hotel by any means, but my room (404) had a beautiful view of Lake Maggiore, and was within a 5 minute walk to the little town, which was absolutely authentic and charming.

Nice bedroom with small balcony with a limited view of the lake. Breakfast was continental but reasonably good with helpful staff. Private parking for E10., but plenty of... More
