    • Hugo and Verbena are the two gems that shine in the wonderful Rivabella. It was my third visit to this special place, and it’s the people running the hotel that make it such a special place. The break on the patio was so intimate and we so enjoyed seeing Verbena again as she took care of us with her cheerful and kind demeanor. The views from our room were incredible, and swimming in the lake and then simply lounging in the sun was sweetZ
    • Very friendly staff. Splendid view on the lake. Excellent breakfast on the terrasse.
    • The view from the room was perfect, the room was clean and warm and the bed comfortable. The hotel is easily accessible with buses from both Italy and Switzerland. The bus stop is right next to the hotel. In the morning I sat outside on the terrace and I was served the best breakfast I’ve ever had.Grazie mille!

    Extremely warm and helpful staff. Very practical location, just a 2-minute walk away from the bus stop. Amazing view and great private beach by the lake. What's not to love! ?

    Location, terrasse for breakfast, almost tropical garden, private hotel space with sun beds plus shower, easy access to small beach. View from room, comfortable beds, effective and silent air conditioning. Our sea view room was very quite.Reserved hotel parking on main road. Possibility to safely store cycles.

    We felt so welcome @ Rivabella. The room was very comfortable, with a view of the gardens & lake. The breakfast was excellent.

    9HaimPosted on: 9-20-2023

    Lovely hotel and beautiful gardens. The room was comfortable and clean. Breakfast served on the balcony overlooking the lake was lovely. Breakfast was prepared and served with personal touch. Friendly and helpful staff. The Ticino card providing free public transportation and some discounts was a nice bonus. Few minutes walk to the ferry and restaurants.
