Laqua by the Lake

I would give Laqua ten stars if possible! The entire stay was a lovely gift. The room was beautiful and the view, extraordinary. The restaurant was also fantastic for both breakfast and dinner. The dinner was so gorgeous that we had to admire each course before beginning. The meal was as delicious as it was gorgeous! Every aspect of the Laqua experience centers around the natural beauty of the lake, sustainability and the bounty of the area.The highlight was the staff. They were exceedingly well trained, but more importantly, joyful, resourceful and immeasurably kind. We are looking forward to returning next Autumn!

The hotel is located in a beautiful position, very close to Lake Orta. The welcome was very warm and friendly, the room was very clean and with all necessary. I highly recommend the hotel to all the guests that want to enjoy some days of relax.

What an absolutely sublime place to spend a few days. We stayed in a lake front suite, which combined beautiful contemporary interiors, sumptuous comfort and the most magical view. Breakfast was varied, plentiful and everything we tried was delightful, and catered well for our vegetarian diet. We ate in the restaurant twice and had two innovative, creative and utterly delicious meals in the most bucolic of settings. We had a perfect day swimming in the divine pool and took an electric boat out on the lake which was magical, especially as we could hear the sounds of birdsong and the lapping of the water out on the lake as the electric motor was virtually silent. The only disappointing thing about Laqua by the Lake was having to leave. We will certainly return and cannot recommend this simply superlative hotel enough.

Very nice property. Clean, contemporary. Attentive service. Excellent restaurant sets it apart. Highly recommended.

We had the most beautiful stay at L’aqua; the staff were fantastic, especially Gabriel & Nichola poolside, who were so friendly & helpful. The boat ride and paddle boarding were fantastic, as were our lunches by the water.

My 24 anniversary disappointment! Be aware of what you book and where you book this hotel - made the mistake to book this hotel through Hyatt - I booked a 2 room lake view and got a 1 bedroom - I had to collect proof of what I booked to present to management like a court case , showing a 2 room and came to learn that a 2 room does not mean 2 bedroom but a 1 bedroom - and at check in was charged an additional €200 for my 2 kids for one night , even though I paid in advance to save - this was supposed to be my 24 anniversary celebration in Italy and it was the most anxious situation … the hotel instead of fixing my problem (manager Mr DelGatto) told me to go to Hyatt to fix it - they just completely removed themselves from the responsibility which I find extremely unprofessional! Instead I was offered a boat ride as a “kind” gesture for my inconvenience! I find that very offensive ! I don’t recommend this hotel - there are plenty of amazing places around this area where you will get a 5 star treatment and not be disappointed or feel unwelcome! I’ve traveled the world (over 70 countries) and have NEVER been treated by management like this - completely removing themselves and not fixing my problem in house ! I won’t recommend this place to any of my clients and friends !
