Grand Hotel Dino

Amazing breakfast. Amazing location anytime again. Super people too

Eigentlich war alles sehr gut. Frühstück perfekt. Das Essen im Restaurant Last Hall lässt könnte einen Tick besser sein, z. B. nicht lauwarm serviert werden. Zusätzlichen Kosten für den Tiefgaragenstellplatz von 19 € /Tag, bei wenigen Parkplätzen auf dem Hotelareal, ist schon sportlich zumal bei der Buchung, soweit ich mich erinnere, darauf nicht explizit hingewiesen wird und keine versteckten Kosten zu erwarten wären. Also genau hinschauen.

The hotel has a great location. Stresa and the Islands as well as Lago d'Orta are easy to reach. For the kids, there is an indoor pool, an outdoor pool and lake access. The rooms are large and easy for a small family. The main issue for us was, that it felt a bit like a cruise ship. There are 5-8 coaches with day travellers outside and therefore the breakfast place is a massive hall, of which parts are closes for organized travel. Dinner at the hotel was not possible, as we did not book ahead. The gym is payable (12EUR) and the garage at 20EU/day. But after the first night of arrival, the hotel was great. There are a lot of nice restaurant outside (book ahead as well) and the islands Pescadore and Bella are easy to reach. You can also book a boat with the restaurants Pescadore without additional charge, as long as you have dinner there.

We love this hotel and stayed many times over almost 25 years but this will perhaps be the last. Stayed in room 366, clearly some major acoustics problems at this hotel as next door had a persistent cough and it sounded like he was in our room, every single noise from the adjacent bathroom could be heard very loudly and in graphic detail through the vent - absolutely horrid experience, being woken by next door taking a pee / flushing the toilet is not what you expect of a 4* hotel.

A trip within the Grand Hotel Dino 🦕 complex. Such an expansive hotel 🏨. No wonder 💭 it’s called Grand Hotel 🏨. It is indeed VERY grand. Private lakeshore, huge garden 🪴, on-site spa 🧖 and pool 🏊 - it is very grandiose. The animal-trimmed shrubs clearly express artisan’s sense. What an unforgettable experience! Room is a bit small but I’ve got the lakeside view. Towels are a bit limited but not a big deal. Breakfast offers a nice touch. Overall it was a pleasant stay.

This beautiful hotel has a gorgeous view of the lake. They have several sitting areas outside to allow people to relax and enjoy the view. The rooms are spacious and beautifully appointed. We enjoyed their breakfast buffet. Service was nice.

Beautiful hotel and location.Great staff,very kind and helpful. Unfortunately I can’t give a 5 stars for few flaws: 1)The hotel is expensive,even so there is no kettle in the room and if you want you need to pay an extra 10 euros.I have travelled a lot around the globe and this is first time it happens. 2)There is a sauna but again you need to pay an extra 12 euros to use it 3)At check out we were charged a 5% of the total bill in service charges.This wasn’t mentioned at the time of the booking (only the tourist fee), so I have found it unfair.

So disappoonted to have booked a lake side hotel, only to have a view of some God awful mural and the air conditioning units. Asked for an alternative but was told they were full. Really? It was acknowledged at reception it wasn't a good room....which didnt make me feel any better.

Our room, 262, faced the lake and had wonderful views. Overall the room was spacious and the bathroom well equipped, HOWEVER, the sound traveled very well from the neighboring room’s bathroom - so much so that it sounded like the neighbor was standing in our room speaking. We could clearly hear entire conversations in Italian one night and English the next. The sounds seemed to transmit through the AC vent. Obviously a construction design flaw.
