"The location is nice, but we were disappointed.
Contrary to what we expected and what was mentioned, there was no free wifi (there was no wifi at all!), the parking was 1.3 km away and this was not a hotel but a series of appartements. The one we got was not the one we rented!
And at the end, it was extremely overpriced for what we got. To be avoided!"

"Very enjoyable stay at Albergo Regina. Beautiful valley views from the suite balcony and dining room. The staff were very helpful with local information. We enjoyed a few dinners, and they have a good selection of wines in the bar.
Overall, we really enjoyed the country ambience of the place. "

"Room # 4 was clean, quiet if a little on the “seen better days” side. Accommodation near Lake Orta is expensive. The nightly rate charged by Madonna della Neve takes advantage of this fact. The free buffet breakfast was satisfactory (nice scrambled eggs/omelet). We ate in the restaurant one evening. The food was unremarkable, rustic. The hotels.com website describes the hotel as being 1 minute from Lake Orta in Pettanesco. This is incorrect. It is 10-15 minutes away from the lake up a narrow,...

"Kannten die Gegend schon von früher, haben aber jeweils ganz oben in der Gattascosa-Hütte übernachtet. Warten überrascht ein so gemütliches Hotel im Tal zu finden. Hatten grosses Wetterglück und konnten drei sehr schöne Wanderungen machen. Guter Prospekt des Tals mit Wanderrouten eingezeichnet!"

Whatever you remember about youth hostels, this ain't it. Modern, clean, not cheap (it's Switzerland), and it has a very nice wellness spa for a rather reasonable additional charge. Food is good but not fancy, and staff were extremely helpful.
The only glitch was that I booked this stay with OneKeyCash, and hotels.com (i.e., expedia) took my money and gave me a receipt showing no balance due, but then didn't actually pay the hostel! That led to lots of extra work for the hostel staff to...

Great, small property just around the corner from restaurants, bars, and activities in Zurich. Rooms are small, but very (modern) efficient, clean, and comfortable--at a very fair price. Nice breakfast--nothing fancy, but perfect for a good start to the day. Plenty of fresh fruit, cheeses, breads, etc., etc. Thomas, the manager, was very helpful and friendly. I will stay at this hotel again!

We only stayed here for a night and it was perfect for what we needed it for. If you have luggage, you can either take a taxi there or walk. The walk back to the train stations, town, and shops is gradually uphill but not bad. You are about 7-8 minutes away from the busier section of Zermatt which could be benefit as it is a little quieter but still easily accessible. Even with construction being done we didn’t have any issues! Host was great and came down to meet us and gave great...
