Rooms' features

Hotel Aracoeli has seven rooms, each unique, with hanging light bulbs and painted concrete floors. Most rooms offer views of the town's rooftops and the lake. Two rooms can sleep four guests, including the top-floor suite. Each room features air conditioning, a minibar, a TV with satellite channels, and tea and coffee-making facilities. Some units include a seating area. Every room has a private bathroom with a shower. Amenities include ironing facilities, heating, and free Wi-Fi. Some rooms have a balcony with lake views.

Food and Drink

A large buffet breakfast is available each morning from 08:00, featuring cheese, sweet snacks, fresh fruit, and local delicatessen. The breakfast buffet includes cheeses, hams, focaccia bread, peppers, and courgettes. The onsite restaurant emphasizes fresh handmade pasta and seafood, including eel and pike.

Location Highlights

Hotel Aracoeli is in the heart of town, on Piazza Motta, the town's main square. The hotel is surrounded by popular shops and restaurants, where bars and restaurants attract a buzzy crowd in the evenings, which can get noisy. The island of San Giulio, dominated by the Basilica di San Giulio with 14th-century frescoes, is 6 km away. The Sacred Mountain of Orta, with chapels and life-size sculptures of Saint Francis of Assisi, is an uphill walk from the hotel.

Services

This smoke-free hotel provides laundry facilities and express check-in. Guests can connect to free WiFi in public areas and will find luggage storage space. Public parking is available at an additional cost in the immediate surroundings. The hotel offers a roundtrip airport shuttle and a selection of cheese, sweet snacks, and fresh fruit. Guests must be present at check-in, including children.

Getting Around

Hotel Aracoeli is 50 km from Malpensa Airport. Landmarks nearby include Trenino di Orta (0.5 km), Sacred Mountain of Orta (1 km), and San Giulio Island (6 km).

“In my opinion, this property's location directly on Piazza Motta and its creatively themed rooms are noteworthy, placing guests at the heart of Orta San Giulio's pedestrian area. While the breakfast aims for a social experience with local delicacies, I think the quality and management need attention. I believe the unique in-room shower experiences are a definite plus for those seeking something different.”
