Hotel description
With its beautiful sandy beach on Lake Maggiore, the Hotel Splendid stands out from the crowd of first-class hotels around the lake. But this privilege is by no means the only reason to stay at this historic luxury hotel. Housed in a remarkable palatial building on the lakefront, it offers 102 rooms and suites in 6 categories with classic Italian furnishings. There is also a modern health club, a restaurant with a panoramic terrace and a bar overlooking the lake. The atmosphere is characterised by the hotel's long history, which began in 1873. From the very beginning, the Hotel Splendid impressed guests with its refined Italian style and a certain touch of glamour, which it still retains today. Greeted by a uniformed porter, you enter a mirrored lobby under a sparkling chandelier. Dark fine woods, leather, marble and silk fabrics create an atmosphere of timeless elegance.
Hotel by the lake: right on the shore
The location is unsurpassed. The adjacent lake is a magical sight and can be enjoyed from many rooms, the hotel terrace and the beach. The icing on the cake at the Splendid Hotel is a small, well-kept sandy beach. In the summer, it has an almost Caribbean atmosphere, with huge palm trees and white umbrellas. The hotel's own jetty extends out into the water for swimming and boat mooring.
Romantic hotel: historic chic & unforgettable moments
The benefits of this luxury hotel for a few romantic days on the lake are many. From the standard category to the Presidential Suite, all the rooms have a historic chic. The higher categories offer more space, but more importantly, great furnishings, such as king-size four-poster beds and upholstered furniture, silk wallpaper, murals and fabulous marble bathrooms. Most rooms also have a balcony with uninterrupted views of Lake Maggiore. The hotel's own gourmet restaurant and terrace, where you can sit directly on the water, guarantee particularly romantic moments. From here, or from the beach, you can watch the sun set over the lake.
Food & drink: Exquisite breakfast & gourmet cuisine with lake view
Breakfast is a sumptuous gourmet buffet with everything you could possibly want. In the evening, the hotel restaurant serves gourmet Mediterranean cuisine in an elegant dining room or outside on the lakeside terrace. For an aperitif or nightcap, there is a lounge bar with an elegant but informal atmosphere and a great panoramic terrace.
Leisure & sport: pool, beach, wellness and water sports
For those who prefer greenery to sand, there is a large pool with sunbeds and parasols in the lush garden. Hotel Splendid also offers a Roman-style spa with steam bath, salt sauna, jacuzzi and several treatment rooms for wellness treatments. There is also a small but modern gym. Guests also have access to canoes, pedal boats and small rowing boats, as well as the hotel's own tennis court.
Location: On the southern edge of Baveno
Hotel Splendid is located on the southern outskirts of Baveno, on the shores of Lake Maggiore, which leads to Stresa. Surrounded by well-tended gardens, it overlooks the lake and the Borromean Islands.
