Grand Hotel Des Iles Borromees

Stresa, Italy
Map
The most beautiful suite is the Hemingway Suite: yellow marble paneling, stucco decorations on the ceilings, a magnificent chandelier, and a Carrara marble fireplace. And be sure to pack Ernest Hemingway’s novel *In Another Country* for your vacation reading: it features a couple living at the Grand Hotel Des Iles Borromees. Hemingway himself was a frequent guest at the hotel.
