“Great Views”

Travelled with 3 children.They actually said they were becoming tired of castles, walking and churches. So we choose a bright sunny day. Parking iffy.

Travelled with 3 children.They actually said they were becoming tired of castles, walking and churches. So we choose a bright sunny day. Parking iffy. But after 2 weeks in Europe you can get better and better at parking and finding parks. 28 Euros- 10x2 euro for adults. I'm unsteady on heights and read the reviews- but I highly recommend it. Views are great. Snack bar for cheaper eats. Did no further walking as suggested. Spend 30+ mins enjoying sunshine and the views. Great new activity instead of architectural marathon.

“Well worth the visit.”

A really good Cable car ride or more accurately a Bucket Car. You have the option of taking a small enclosed cabin or a completely open topped one that looks exactly like a bucket.

A really good Cable car ride or more accurately a Bucket Car. You have the option of taking a small enclosed cabin or a completely open topped one that looks exactly like a bucket. Good deal for 10.00 Euro return. Some people choose to walk down. The rather basic Cafe is a bit of a rip off and they charge extra 2.00 for bring food out to the terrace. Bring your own food up and a couple of cold cans from a shop in the town. There is a more expensive proper Restaurant, if you want a decent snack maybe pay the extra. Most people stay at the top for an hour or more. Spectacular views from the top and while rising or descending the cableway.

“Excellent view and decent but worn hotel”

An exceptional view from the hotel room. A ride there up over 1000 meters was quite exciting. With an open "cabin" for people it costed 25euros and felt dangerous. Especially when we had 3 little kids along. But up in the mountain the view was marvellous. The hotel itself is old and worn but ok for… lisää

An exceptional view from the hotel room. A ride there up over 1000 meters was quite exciting. With an open "cabin" for people it costed 25euros and felt dangerous. Especially when we had 3 little kids along. But up in the mountain the view was marvellous. The hotel itself is old and worn but ok for a couple of nights. We had a room for 4 person and baby crib and our own balcony facing the Lake Maggiore. At night you could see the stars very brightly from our balcony. For that a visit was worth it. No air con but when you opened the windows at night you got some cool air coming from the mountains. The hotel has an old playgtound that has some slides etc so, our kids loved it. Small Lizards were running around in the garden and we saw many people paragliding close to this mountain. The night costed around 140e. The hotel had a restaurant that had dinner and hotel had a snack bar. The breakfast was ok (lots of sweet stuff but also some croissants) and it was included. The dinner was not good but there was nothing else. They added 2.5e/person as a service fee to the bill. Be sure to bring your own water bottles since you only get 1/2l per person.
