Hotel Pironi

Cannobio, Italy.

This small charming hotel is situated in a 15th century palace, once a Franciscan monastery, in Cannobio, a village on the shores of Lake Maggiore. Stylishly elegant, the rooms all feature antique furniture combined with the modern comforts guests expect.

Bed and Breakfast Description

The hotel is part of a 15th century palace which has been expertly restored following the original architectural style. The atmosphere is warm and friendly.

The quiet, exclusive rooms, none of which are the same, are all furnished with care and antique pieces, endowed with every comfort, and from where you may enjoy a relaxing view over the lake nearby and the village in whose historic center the hotel is situated.

The room in which our buffet breakfast is served is an eighteenth century jewel, with frescoed walls and ceilings and an original terracotta floor.

On the first floor, the sophisticated salon with its wonderful fireplace is ideal for reading, conversation and working or simply as a place in which to spend a pleasantly relaxed and tranquil evening.
