On the shore of Lake Maggiore, with a splendid panoramic view of the Castles of Cannero, is Cannero Riviera, a pleasant lakeside town with a mild climate. Our 4-star Lake Maggiore hotel is located in the most beautiful part of this town.
With many rooms overlooking the lake, our guests get a taste of lakeside luxury living. This could look like starting the day with a coffee on a private balcony, enjoying a refreshing dip in the swimming pool, or ending the evening with an elegant dinner at our hotel restaurant, as the sun sets over the lake.
For those who wish to explore, our hotel on Lake Maggiore offers daily boat excursions across the lake, taking guests to the beautiful Brissago Islands, the Swiss town of Ascona, the botanical gardens of Villa Taranto or the very famous Borromean Islands. For a more private experience, guests may also choose our boat rental service to discover the lake at their own pace.
Hotel Cannero’s roots date back to the mid-19th century, when part of an old monastery on the shores of Lake Maggiore was transformed into a hotel named Tre Re. In 1902, Carolina and Giovanni Gallinotto took over the property and gave it the name it carries today: Hotel Cannero.
The hotel continued to grow under Maria Carla Gallinotto and her family. In 2001, the family completed the restoration of the ancient post office next to the hotel. A historic early-18th-century building, it once belonged to the noble barons of Sant’Agabio. Today, it’s an integral part of Hotel Cannero.
Hotel Cannero Lakeside Resort remains a family business, and Maria Carla’s children, Samuele, Annalisa, Felice, and Alfredo, have been continuing the legacy since 2024. Their mission is to honour the hotel’s heritage while bringing a modern touch to the guest experience, whether that’s with a poolside cocktail or with some insider tips on exploring the region by boat.
We’re devoted to welcoming guests to Hotel Cannero, Lake Maggiore, Italy, in the best way possible.
