I stayed at Hotel Europa in November 2013 while working at the laboratory nearby in Ispra. When I arrived with my colleague in mid morning, we were very tired from our flight to Milano. Although the restaurant was closed at that time, they fixed us something to eat at no charge. This older hotel is directly on the shore of Lago Maggiore, which is spectacular in any season. My room was large and comfortable, and it afforded a good view of the lake. On the last weekend of my stay, I decided to visit Milano. It's not that straightforward to get from Ispra to Milano; you have to take a taxi to a train station in a larger city, Sesto Calende, about 20 km away. The taxi driver promised to come and meet my return train that evening, but when I arrived there was no taxi. It was getting dark and I don't speak Italian, so after waiting more than 30 minutes, I called the hotel. They called the taxi company, but there was no answer so they ended up sending one of the hotel employees to pick me up. It was a long distance down some dark and winding roads, so it took awhile for him to arrive. I was very impressed with the warm hospitality of the hotel staff and management and the way they take care of their guests. My colleagues and I had dinner at the hotel twice during our stay, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. I ordered fish and it was delicious! This would be a wonderful place to stay in the summertime. I was told that tour boats stop directly at the hotel. I would love to take a trip on the lake next time I visit Ispra.
