Hotel Belvedere Ranco

The Belvedere is run by the Merzagora family who take great care to provide a friendly service and actively ensure guests enjoy the perfect holiday. At the Belvedere you will find all the comforts and services you expect from a bike hotel and also the exclusive opportunity to master the secrets and techniques of fishing on the lake. And, If you are here on business, we have a fully-equipped convention room that can accommodate forty people. Its location offers the ideal starting point for your trips on Lake Maggiore and exploring the magnificent surrounding countryside, from the Alps and the verdant hills steeped in history and culture to the characteristic lakeside villages and famous, picturesque Borromean islands. The Belvedere is also a celebrated restaurant. Our dishes have a local flavour and we try to offer our guests a ‘taste of the lakes’ complemented by seasonal fare. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming in the winter, while dining on the terrace with panoramic views over the lake guarantees a unique, absolutely magical experience in the summer. We love Lake Maggiore and look forward to showing you all it has to offer. RESTAURANT It was born 150 years ago as a tavern to refresh fishermen returning from their fishing trips on Lake Maggiore and the first tourists reached Ranco from Varese, Gallarate and Busto Arsizio. Today it is a restaurant that combines history and tradition with modernity and polite hospitality. EVENTS Our guests will be able to choose between two rooms, one more modern and bright with large windows overlooking the lake, the other more intimate and intimate, heated in the winter months by a large turn-of-the-century fireplace. In summer, you can have lunch and dinner on the large terraces shaded by a centuries-old Canadian vine, where you will taste the specialties of the cuisine immersed in an enchanting landscape context.
