Exclusive PALAZZO PRINCIPE holiday rental in a prime location in the beautiful historic centre of STRESA... Enjoy and discover the vibrant Italian lifestyle and the enchanting Lake Maggiore! This 140-square-meter apartment is located on the top floor of an elegant building right in the heart of STRESA’s bustling centre and impresses with its size, perfect layout, and central location. The high-quality renovation, featuring a keen eye for thoughtful and modern details—including the complete furnishings—leaves nothing to be desired. An open and modern living area with access to the two balconies welcomes you as soon as you enter. The two balconies invite you to enjoy a meal or a glass of wine while taking in the lively atmosphere of STRESA and will quickly become your favourite spots... The living area consists of a spacious, fully equipped kitchen (dishwasher, oven, stove, refrigerator, freezer, microwave, coffee maker, kettle, toaster, etc.), a dining area, and a bright living room with two sleeper sofas and a satellite TV. Free Wi-Fi is available! A stylish hallway leads to the two large bedrooms and the two bathrooms. One bedroom faces the quiet inner courtyard, while the other faces the piazza, which is a bit livelier. One bathroom is equipped with a bathtub, toilet, bidet, and washing machine. The second bathroom has a shower and toilet. The comfortable sofa bed in the living area provides additional sleeping space for more guests. The carefully selected designer lamps create a special ambiance! All rooms feature terracotta tiles. In total, the apartment sleeps 5 people plus a toddler, making it ideal for families or friends travelling together who still value space and privacy. The master bedroom has air conditioning, so you can sleep cool and peacefully even on hot summer nights with the windows closed—despite the lively piazza on this side of the apartment. The internal staircase in the apartment leading to an attic is currently closed off but may offer space for an additional bedroom in the future. You can easily reach the holiday rental by lift or via a wide staircase. The apartment is located in the heart of Stresa, right on the corner of the famous Piazza Cardorna and just a minute away from the lakefront promenade and Stresa’s boat dock. Many lovely restaurants, bars, and shops are right nearby, and directly across from the apartment’s entrance is a very well-stocked Carrefour supermarket. The location is a perfect choice for those who want to experience the truly enchanting town centre of Stresa with all its amenities within walking distance. It’s also ideal for travellers arriving by train or plane. The train station is a 10-minute walk away, and Milan-Malpensa Airport is easily accessible from Stresa via the ALIBUS.
Depending on availability, a private garage space in the building’s underground car park is available for a fee of €12 per day. Free and paid parking spaces are available in the immediate vicinity. The apartment/garage is located in a ZTL zone with entry restrictions in the evening and on weekends; more information is available upon request! You can apply for a permit to drive through during restricted hours at the nearby police station.
Enjoy this perfect accommodation after a full day on Lake Maggiore, where a wide range of activities await, such as swimming and relaxing by the lake, boat trips, hiking, and golf (2 courses in the immediate vicinity), trips to the Borromean Islands, strolling along the lakeshore promenades of Stresa, boat trips to Ascona and Locarno in Switzerland, day trips to Milan (very easy by train from Stresa), Lugano, and Como, as well as trips to the famous weekly markets in Luino (Wednesdays) and Cannobio (Sundays).... and the DOLCE VITA... and much more awaits you!

Wunderschöne und große Ferienwohnung im Herzen von Stresa
Die Wohnung ist nicht nur auf den Bildern so unglaublich schön ;-). Wir waren mitten in der sommerlichen Hauptsaison mit einer 4köpfigen Familie dort und haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt. Angefangen von der superherzlichen Begrüßung und Betreuung vor Ort, mit dem Komfort der Wohnung und der sehr zentralen Lage hatten wir eine top Wahl getroffen. Es hat wirklich an nichts gefehlt! Auch die Innenaustattung der Küche ist absolut perfekt.Einen Stern Abzug hat die Wohnung lediglich wegen der Lage direkt am Supermarkt. Dieser wird früh beliefert, was in einem Schlafzimmer gut zu hören ist. Empfindliche Schläfer sollten also in das nach hinten gelegene Schlafzimmer wechseln. Für den spontanen Einkauf ist der Supermarkt gegenüber jedoch ein Plus.Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die mietbare Garage in der Tiefgarage des Hauses.
Sehr gut ausgestattete, sehr gepflegte und sehr saubere große Wohnung mitten in der Altstadt von Stresa.
Es ist alles vorhanden was man braucht, vor allem in der Küche.
Restaurants, Bars und Supermarkt befinden sich auch in unmittelbarer Nähe.
Kurze Wege auch zum See und der Bootsablegestelle.
Wir haben die Zeit dort sehr genossen.
