Lovely - Edit
We had a lovely stay. The breakfast buffet was incredibly varied and absolutely delicious. The view of the lake from our room with a balcony was sensational. The owner was very friendly. There are a few options in and around Brissago for vegan dinners in the restaurants. If you’re not travelling by car, you’ll need to be happy walking. There are lovely walks to go on. We also really enjoyed the chance to do yoga in the morning. If you’re looking for absolute peace and quiet, it might be a bit tricky. We kept the balcony door open because of the heat, and you can hear people having breakfast in the mornings. What we missed was an e-bike hire service at the hotel. But you can use Publibike in the village.

Lovely and relaxing stay - Edit
I enjoyed the quiet of the location - no major street in this area and super quiet at might. They only served breakfast but had recommendations for vegan friendly options near by (nice options).
Read moreThe views are gorgeous!
The breakfast was a buffet and had a nice variety - but it is just so lovely not having to ask if it is vegan. Everything is vegan!
Room was spacious and spotless.
I really enjoyed the nice break
Pros: Views, Breakfast, Kind staff
Cons: Nothing

Thank you so much for your kind words, Elsa! We are delighted you enjoyed the quiet location, the views and the breakfast.

Traumhaft, Freundlich und Vegan 🌱 - Edit
Unglaublich, ein rein veganes Hotel mit traumhafter Aussicht auf den Lago Maggiore. Isabella und Maurizio sind wundervolle Gastgeber, so herzlich und freundlich, fantastisch! Isabella spricht zudem Italienisch, Deutsch, Französisch und Englisch. Die Zimmer sind modernisiert worden (außer das Bad), aber alles war sehr sauber und liebevoll eingerichtet. Von unserem Balkon hatten wir einen Traumhaft Ausblick auf den Lago Maggiore, unglaublich schön. Für uns war es auch toll das es ein Nichtraucher Hotel ist, so kommt kein lästiger Rauch vom neben Balkon zu einem 👍 Das Frühstück ist rein Vegan und es gibt alles was das Herz begehrt, Müsli, Joghurt, Früchte, Brot, Croissants, Wurst, Käse, Marmelade … sogar ab und an einen selbst gebackenen Kuchen 🫶 Es ist einfach wundervoll, dass man als Veganer ohne Kompromissen so fantastisch Urlaub machen kann 🍀
Read morePros: Freundlichkeit der Gastgeber , Standort und die Aussicht, Das vegane Frühstücksangebot
Cons: Für mich waren die Betten zu hart.

Vielen herzlichen Dank, Marc, für diese wunderschöne Rezension! Es freut uns sehr, dass ihr euch bei uns so wohl gefühlt habt und die Aussicht, das Frühstück und die Gastfreundschaft genossen habt. Der Hinweis zu den Betten nehmen wir gerne an — wir arbeiten kontinuierlich daran, den Komfort zu verbessern. Wir hoffen, euch bald wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen! 🌿

Brissago is beautiful! - Edit
The restaurant wasnt open when we were there. Af ter a conversation with the owners about it, they told me there were too little people to open the restaurant for. Which I completly understand. In stead we got a falaffel first night and the second night we ate at La Curt Bandidata.
Read moreI did think the breakfast was boring for a vegan hotel. My suggestion: add pancakes for sweet choice and tofu scramble for harty breakfast. The room and bathroom was a good size.

Dear Guest, thank you for your feedback. I just want to let you know that we came a long way from our first years as a vegan hotel and we are now finally offering a very nice buffet with pancakes, home made cakes, warm dishes and much more. It was not easy to find the right combination of food options, good staff able to prepare the food and enough people to enjoy it. But in 2026 I can say that we did it and we are very proud of it. So I hope you will be back to visit us😄See you soon!

Beautiful hotel in wonderful settings - Edit
The hotel has been renovated and is full of charm, it has stunning views, it feels comfy and homey.
Read moreThere is various options for a plant based breakfast and on weekend nights you can eat at the restaurant the "pinse" a twist on pizza, with various toppings.
Great place for a holiday, highly recommended, the staff is very nice and helpful too.
Pros: Fresh fruit and vegan yogurt and seeded bread , Option for big brunch or smaller breakfast
Cons: Use of meat substitutes and fake cheeses
IsabellaBellani
Thank you for your kind words! We are happy you felt the charm and the homey atmosphere we try to create. Regarding the use of plant-based substitutes — we completely understand the preference for whole, natural foods, and we have evolved a lot since then. Our breakfast today focuses much more on fresh, homemade and minimally processed ingredients. We hope you'll come back and taste the difference! 🌿 Isabella & Maurizio

Best hotel ever! - Edit
We were drawn to the hotel from a website saying it was 100% vegan. But it was so much more than just great food! Very friendly, helpful, kind and chatty staff. The owners were so great, helpful and we talked all evening.
Read moreIt's a family business and they have a secret, the recipe for perfect pinsa, that was so delicious that when I ate it the first time, I looked forward to it for the next 24hours until I could eat it again!
The view over the lake whilst eating is great aswell, very calming.
Would give more that 5 stars if I could, highly recommend!

Super Unterkunft - Edit
Wir waren für zwei Nächte dort und es war ein toller Kurzurlaub.
Read moreDie Besitzerin und das restliche Personal ist sehr freundlich und wahnsinnig zuvorkommend, dazu ist das Essen sehr gut.
Das Frühstück scheint im ersten Moment recht teuer aber für das was man bekommt ist es mehr als fair.
Das Abendessen ist wahnsinnig gut, das Hotel hat lediglich von Mittwoch bis Samstag Abendessen, die Besitzerin gibt einem auf Nachfrage aber genügend Ideen wo man sonst noch essen kann.
Sehr zu empfehlen dieses Hotel!
IsabellaBellani
Vielen Dank, Cora, für diese tolle Rezension! Es freut uns sehr, dass euch der Kurzurlaub bei uns gefallen hat und ihr das Essen und die Gastfreundschaft genossen habt. Seit 2022 hat sich bei uns einiges verändert — das Frühstücksbuffet ist heute noch reichhaltiger und wir haben viele neue Aktivitäten im Angebot.
