The Grand Hotel des Iles Borromées is one of Italy’s most celebrated grand hotels, built in 1861 on the shores of Lake Maggiore at Stresa and decorated throughout in a magnificently flamboyant style. This is a hotel of real theatrical presence — the kind of place that turns a golf holiday in Italy into something genuinely memorable. Indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a spa and the renowned Il Borromeo restaurant — with its panoramic views across the lake — complete a leisure offer of real distinction.
Stresa’s lakefront position, with the Borromean Islands shimmering just offshore, provides one of Italy’s most romantic backdrops. For golfers who want a stay that feels genuinely special, arriving here after a day on the fairways and sitting down to dinner overlooking Lake Maggiore is an experience that justifies the journey.
Iles Borromees golf club lies within three kilometres of the hotel, and Bogogno and Castelconturbia are both accessible within thirty minutes — Bogogno in particular being considered among Italy’s finest parkland courses. Close to both Malpensa and Linate airports, this is a practical as well as spectacular base for an Italy golf package in the Italian lake district. Private airport and golf transfers can be arranged through Golf Planet Holidays.
