Hotel Ancora

絕佳性價比酒店，真的好

Whenever we've reviewed this hotel, whether on Booking or to friends, we keep repeating the sentence "Everything was perfect" and this sums it up quite well. The service from each staff member was impeccable. We had booked a deluxe room with balcony and the first room we recieved was modern, with a balcony on a lower floor. We talked to the receptionist about switching rooms so that we'd have a balcony higher up and they quickly arranged this and moved our bags for us. We stayed in two different deluxe rooms with balcony and both were just like we'd imagined, with incredibly comfortable beds, great AC, a coffee machine, and housekeepers with incredible attention to detail. The staff was able to provide vegan alternatives for breakfast on short notice and we were very pleased with the buffet and its pricing. The cool welcome drink was amazing after a long trip. Few reviews I've seen mention the table of snacks provided in the lobby, but this is such a great touch. The location is great, just a three minute walk from the ferry station in Intra, with restaurants and bars right next to the building.

We visit Intra on a regular basis to catch up with family and have stayed at hotel Ancona on each of our last 4 visits. We keep coming back because each visit is such a pleasant experience. You can not get a better location overlooking the lakefront and near the ferry terminal and the main square. The rooms are generally a good size with all needs catered for. We normally stay in the apartments which are larger but cheaper than the lakefront rooms and more suited to a longer (7-10 day) stay. Even though these rooms don’t have a view themselves you can sit out on the front patio, overlooking the lake, for breakfast and in the early evening (or anytime you want). Breakfast is definitely a unique offering with fresh orange juice squeezing machine, blocks of chocolate, real honeycomb, as well as a good selection of more standard offerings. All the staff are very friendly and helpful and you see the manager at breakfast most mornings checking up on how things are going. Highly recommended and certainly better value than the bigger hotels in Stresa.
