Hotel Alpino - Baveno

2.9

Features a shower cabin with a plastic curtain which gives very dirt impression and makes taking a shower a very unpleasant experience.

8.3

We liked the hotel because it was in the centre of Baveno. Our restaurant was the best and the cheepest. We loved the pizzas. Near the hotel, there is a train station so it was sometimes noisly. The rooms were very clean. This h otel is nice for young people or students because it is really cheep for Lago maggiore.

7.7

I.Liked our stay on the hotel,the breakfast very early from 8 till 9.30, for a vacation this time is much too early and also we dont now this before the booking. The hotel and the restaurant is very nice.

7.4

Very nice welcoming, good value for money : cleaning and clean towels every day , good breakfast (continental breakfast + choice of charcuterie). Hotel very well situated ; closed to : the lake, shops, restaurants and boats departures for Borromes Islands. The train is very closed and noisy, thankfully we had a very deep sleep... The map on the website does not provide all information but the hotel is easy to find (once you know where the church is). We have prefered Baveno to stay comparing to Stresa (Baveno is quite, Stresa is crowdy and noisy).

7.3

We stay 2 days in Baveno.The location is perfect to visit towns along lago maggiore.We will come back.

3.2

The hotel doesn't absolutely correspond to a category "three stars" but a star!!!!

6.8

As this hotel is located very close to the mail railway, if you care about the noise of the trains during the night, this hotel cannnot be recommended. Other than the noise of trains, everything is very good taking the reasonable price into consideration.

7.9

It was the off season, so there were only two couples in the entire place and I think they could have rolled out the red carpet a little more. The towels were clean, but holey. Breakfast was worth it. The hotel is one block from a beautiful church and three blocks from the port.

7.7

Very quiet area clean room and very polite owner he waited us late in the night for the checkin altought was a little hotel we found very confortable beds so great sleeping!

4.1

This hotel is absolutely NOT 3 star quality. There was no lift. The rooms, carpets, furniture and furnishings were tatty and the lighting was poor. Our door had been kicked in and had a great hole in it. The hotel looked as though no work had been done on it for the last 20 years. Very bad value although it was quite close to the lake.

5.4

Petit hôtel sans charme mais tarifs corrects. Chambre petite et peu attractive mais propre. A noter cependant que le courant a disjoncté trois fois en une soirée. Petit déjeuner correct. Bon emplacement à environ 200 mètres du lac. Je ne conseille cependant pas cet hôtel pour un long séjour. Correct pour une étape d'une nuit ou deux.

8.8

I stayed in Baveno because it was more affordable than Stresa, but to be honest I rather preferred it. It is less grand, but there are more Italians, fewer rich tourists, and is all rather friendly. And looks good. The Alpino is in a great location, just below the very attractive train station and right by the old square which is very beautiful, particularly at night. The hotel looks a bit run-down as you enter it, and they are rather laid-back, the guy might be in the restaurant and for a minute it look like no one will help. But the room was absolutely fine and you can come back as late as you lake. It is a bargain really. My only complaint is how they hassle you to leave the room at 10am, which after the laid-back approach is a little strange, but it wasn't really a problem. The lobby wasn't too inviting, but the room was in a charming little courtyard. Again, I can't sing Baveno's praises highly enough, it's just as convenient for access to the islands etc as Stresa, and has everything you might want for a night or two.

8.4

bon rapport qualité prix Parle le français. Bon acueil A savoir avant de venir l'hotel est proche de la voie ferré et le petit dejeuner n'est pas excellent (jus d'orange chimique, faux nutella)

7.4

Hotel pas trop mal surtout pour le prix. Manque la clim pour une région aussi chaude. Bruit des trains mais quand on est fatigué on dort! Très jolie petite église à coté.

8.9

Good value - I would stay here again. The only problem was the railway and noise of trains at night - but Bavano is a small place so most hotels would have some noise and it did not bother us at all. Staff friendly and spoke English. Shops and restaraunts in nearby Stresa are good value.

6.3

For few nights is good. For a longer time is too poor of services and comforts.

8.2

Chambres et sanitaires pas très modernes. mais bon rapport qualité/prix. Bien placé.

8.1

Basic and a little bit old and dirty, but good for the price in this area. We did not find the noise from trains to be a problem at all (as other feedback had reported).

8.1

The price got from the web was higher than neighbour hotels and higher if I should come without web ordering.

8.4

Basic but very clean and pleasant. Close to all transport and centre. Would definitely use again.

6.6

On our tour of Italy the Alpino was the cheapest hotel we stayed at and the first. After seeing the rest we know that we got what we paid for. Location was good - a stroll to the local market and lake. The staff were efficient and the rooms clean. We ate at the pizzeria and enjoyed our meal. We would not return as the noise from the trains was too much. We asked to be moved to a quieter room if possible and staff readily allowed us to move to another room on the other side of the hotel farther from the station. Although they had also advised us that the train noise would be the same in all rooms we found the second room slightly quieter, bigger (it had a balcony) and with a better en-suite and more windows.

4.9

Das Doppelbett könnte gerade einer Person zum schlafen reichen, wenn die Federung des Bettes dies nicht verhindern würde. Hinter dem Hotel ist eine Bahnlinie, Züge fahren die ganze Nacht.

7.8

Economy class reasonable hotel, close to railway. Friendly staff. Clean rooms.

7.6

Hôtel proche du lac(3 min à pieds), mais sans vue directe. Nous avons reçu un accueil sympathique de la part d'un vieux propriétaire supporter de l'Inter de Milan (avis aux amateurs de foot...), qui parle bien le français. Chambres comfortables, mais dommage qu'elles soient proches de la voie ferrée (une centaine de mètres). Il ne faut pas non plus être trop regardant sur les toilettes, qui, bien que propres, n'en demeurent pas moins vétustes (lunettes à côté, traces de calcaire). L'hôtel serait plutôt à classer dans la catégorie 1 à 2 étoiles. Nous y avons néanmoins passé 2 nuits agréables et d'un bon rapport qualité prix au vu de ce qui était proposé dans la région pour la même période.

3.9

The hotel was very old, neer the railway,not clean, the food was bad and the hospitality was bad too.

3.0

too expensive for a bad quality !!!

8.2

We enjoyed staying at this very clean and friendly hotel. But we would not stay there again because of the very noisy railway right next to it, which kept us awake at night.

5.9

Towels were not changed every day (incl. room cleaning). Unfortunately our room was very dark, but spacious.

3.5

A small and hot room because the air conditioning didn't work or wasn't turned on. We're glad we only spent one night there.

6.3

Pretty cheap hotel in a quite a small village. Busy railway is located just 20 meters from the hotel.

7.5

It's well worth staying at the Alpino if you're on a tight budget, as it's much cheaper than some of the other hotels around there. It's a fairly strange little place, and is badly in need of updating, but our room was great. Ask for room 210 - it's the only one with a lake view, and it's nice and spacious with a balcony too. Baveno is a good alternative to Stresa as you can still reach all the islands.

6.9

quite poor equipment (lights, furnitures) of rooms but excellent welcoming.

7.4

Clean and spacious rooms, central position. Bad points: noise from railway, old furniture.

7.6

Very cute and welcoming on arrival. Pleasant, friendly and helpful staff. Room a pleasant surprise, better than expected. Would gladly return and stay longer! only minuses, did not like the "modern - greenhouse style" restaurant, and the trains. The rest makes up for it.

6.3

Hotel Alpino is right in the heart of the lakeside town of Baveno. A walk to the lakeside just take a few minute and the lake view from Baveno is great. The rooms are just mediocre and is not spacious enough.

3.6

I could get a cheaper and better room looking locally, without reserving on the Internet. This has not been the quality I expected!

6.8

Location of the hotel was great. I expected more from breakfast.

7.5

Our rooms (small apartment) were located in a kind of apartment house, not the hotel itself and differed from the photos shown on the homepage significantly. Very acceptable relationship between price and quality, recommendable for a short stay.

7.8

nice little familiar hotel, but unfortunately no private parking spot

9.5

Excellent hotel just a little bit too near to the railway but the price is fair ...

8.0

it was a normal hotel, a good stay, but nothing exeptional
