Camin Hotel Colmegna Sketch

Karen's Review Of This Property:

Ten years ago the Luz family of Luino refurbished another home, creating a second, more economical accommodation just 2 kilometers up the road from their hotel on Lake Maggiore (in our other guide). The Colmegna is run by their young and energetic daughter Lara and caters well to families—in fact, there is no charge for children under four. The two pale-yellow buildings run right along the waterfront bordered by an old stone port. There are several terraces for dining outdoors and another with a lawn for sunning or relaxing and enjoying the view. Beyond there is a gorgeous shaded park with romantic trails, tall trees, and wildflowers at one of the prettiest points of the lake. Simply appointed bedrooms are all situated lakeside on the two floors and accommodate from two to four persons. Swimming, sailing, and windsurfing sports can be arranged. Luino is famous for its open market on Wednesdays, a long-standing tradition since 1541. Within touring distance are the lakes of Lugano and Como, the ferry from Laveno across Lake Maggiore, and the Swiss border.

Directions: Luino is halfway up the lake on the eastern side near the Swiss border. Heading north, Colmegna is on the left-hand side of the main road just past the town of Luino.
We were charmed by this hotel - the staff were attentive and kind, Silvano the head waiter was charming. The situation on the lake is perfect and the terrace were dinner is served is beautiful. Whilst we were there the hotel had three weddings out of the four nights we were there - they were very busy but managed to keep everybody happy, in fact watching the receptions added to the atmosphere. Our only small negative comments are: the noise from the tunnel behind the hotel and the freight train track at night but you get used to it, and a small bathroom. But the helpfulness of the staff - who organized a motorboat for our son’s birthday - and a lovely birthday cake made for some lovely memories and we would recommend this hotel highly.
