Stayed there for a week. Only about 3 other couples at breakfast tables during the week, but many more + families appeared from Thursday morning onwards. Hotel is clean, quiet and offers a stunning view of the lake from its restaurant / terrace. Unlike accommodation around Orta San Giulio itself, plenty of space to park... for free! Hotel is located in Boleto, a small and quiet village up the mountain, and is within walking distance of Madonna del Sasso's sanctuary, which offers a unique vantage point over the lake. Food at Hotel Panoramico's restaurant is very decent, though not haute-cuisine. A plus: breakfast is included and will satisfy most people's tastes. Staff is very courteous and discreet. The only comment we'd make is that, for some reason, half way through our stay, they stopped replenishing the toilet roll in the bathroom (??). Also, if you're staying a week, the toiletries provided won't be enough to see you through, even if there's only one of you. We ended up buying shampoo, which we had to leave behind although bottle was almost full - owing to liquid size restrictions @ airports. If you're there for a weekend, you'll have no problems, though. Definitely recommend!
