It was a family business, the owner’s uncle painted the majority of the artwork decorating the walls that could be in a museum! The owner picked us up from the boat giving us a tour of island while driving us back to the hotel. The hotel was spotless. We were given water bottles for our trek up to the cathedral. Breakfast (and espresso) was very good, if not the best we had in Italy. We ate in a glass covered atrium. There’s a rooftop with gorgeous island views. Easy to walk around the island, busses are frequent so it’s easy to go to Peschiera for dinner and back.

There was a bit of road noise as the narrow road in front of the hotel is the main road around the island, but it still had a lake view. No problem as I always bring earplugs.

Lovely family run place. Very clean, a great breakfast and everyone was so helpful. We have very little Italian but they went out of their way to get a staff member to translate for us. They also booked a restaurant for us and Paolo dropped us to Peschiera to catch our ferry to Sarnico on the morning we checked out.

Nothing really. Just be aware that Siviano is a very small, quaint village but it is much less touristed than some of the other places on the island. There is a good bus service though and if its not too hot it would be possible to walk to the nearby villages

Paolo and his family made us feel very welcome. The transition from the station to the ferry across to the island to Paolo's (free) taxi to the hotel was very easy. The lake view from the hotel terrace was spectacular. The breakfast was generous and fresh, down to the homemade cake and croissants. When a train strike delayed our arrival Paolo arranged for a refund for one day, which we were not expecting- he wore a loss which should have been ours.

An elevator would have helped

The hosts are amazing from the moment they pick you from the ferry until they drop you back they go out of their way to make sure you have the best time. The place is top notch clean and comfortable. The island itself is lovely and quiet with walking treks and food options. We will definitely visit again and stay here.

I loved the hotel owner and staff, they were very polite, informative and attentive. The rooms and the entire establishment were very clean and beautifully decorated. The view was marvelous.

The hotel is a gem situated in Siviano on the quieter village. The owner was extremely helpful with tips and made our stay even better. The breakfast was abundant and the terrace har an unbelieveble view for miles. We have nothing bad to say about this place and we would love to come back.

It’s a real family run hotel. Fantastic hospitality, kindness and stunning location. Perfect coffee from the bar every morning at breakfast. We loved the spacious family room with gorgeous lake views. Extremely comfortable and relaxing hotel.

Monte Isola is a gem and Paolo was a very knowledgable host. The room was clean and spacious. Every morning we had a hearty breakfast before setting out to see the sights of the island and taking a swim in the beautiful lake.

The hospitality of Paolo and his family, the location of the hotel, all the info that we received prior to our trip, the pick up (and drop off) at the port, the comfortable room. Grazie mille!

Extrordinary staff, Paolo came to pick us up and was very friendly and helpful, told us everything we needed to know and more. The girls were also very very kind and friendly, made us dinner reservations and helped with every our need! Good breakfast, clean rooms and an honest family business, would come back any time:))
