Quick overnight in Menaggio

The hotel stay was just what we needed. A quick walk to the downtown area (via sidewalks and stairs). But watch our for the relatively steep walk back. We had plenty of room, our car parked close, and a great view from our balcony. They have a great pool area as well. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

The staff were wonderful here. The bedrooms are old but we knew that prior to coming and Menaggio is so spectacular we are only in room to sleep! Rooms did have option of Netflix and prime which was great. Breakfast delicious - continental with small amount of cooked food. Staff couldn’t be more helpful and polite, my children and I loved them. We didn’t have a car and walked everywhere but you must have good level of fitness to do this as hotel up very steep hills with many (many) steps. Has car park though if you have a rental. Gorgeous swimming pool and sunbed area. Play park with football goals opposite hotel. Loved it and will return Thank you Sonenga ♥️

Basic hotel close to Menaggio city Square

There were ants on the Floor of the room and the furniture was very 80’s like. Also the walls and celings was very thin and you could easily hear your nabour. So very basic indeed. But, the staff was very nice, but had a hard time understanding basic english. The sourroundings and pool area was very nice and quite. The hotel is situated within 10 minuts walk of city square of Menaggio and the ferry port. But overall, compared to the Price level of hotels in Menaggio, it was very good.
