My husband and I spent two nights here in early June. Although located on the main road into Stresa it's not too noisy and the lapping of the water on the lake woke us in the morning. The beds are comfortable and king size - we had a second floor lake view room with a balcony. There are no conventional curtains on the windows, just net curtains, paying homage to the sunrise view the location is famous for. A light sleeper, I still managed to sleep until 8.30am! The meals here are delicious - breakfast is a cold selection of pastries, bread, jams and cerea with the option of ham, hard boiled eggs and salami. Dinner is simply gormet. Seafood is a speciality but everything is very well done. We live in Sydney Australia and are used to dining in some of the world's best restaurants - this compared favorably to those, at a better price even! With the addition of free wifi (so we can write this review in situ!) we'd definitely recommend La Stacca for a stay, dinner or both.
