Northern Piedmont Hotels

Hotel was lovely; had an on-site restaurant that was very good and reasonably priced. We were very pleasantly surprised. The hotel was very clean and well-appointed, and very close to Malpensa Airport, which was extremely important to us. It included a really good and well-assorted breakfast, too, which helped, at 6:30 in the morning!

for an over night hotel before flying out of 'malpensaairport" this place was great- good price & great location.

The staff and the chic look of this hotel make it the best place you can stay in Novara. We stayed there for 15 nights and we were well taken care of and very comfortable. I was worried we would be cold because its Northern Italy in Late January, but our room was very well insulated, heated and modern. I was frustrated by the slow internet connection, the strange TV channel situation (many blank channels out of hundreds and no map to guide a new viewer) and not fully thrilled with the mold in the shower seams. Otherwise, this friendly and enthusiastic staff have A LOT to be proud of. They were each SO gracious and accommodating 24/7. We brought our 10 month old baby, and by the end of our stay the whole staff had bonded with her. Italians love babies and the Cavour is a very warm environment. It looks just like the photos they advertise with--very elegant and modern. It is right across from the train station which means every walk of life is out and about (although I always felt safe), but more importantly it means that transportation is VERY convenient. We are recommending that all my husband's colleagues stay there when they are in town on business.

From the moment we checked in we were given VIP treatment by the owner couple and their son, highlighted by wine and cheese on the patio for my wife and me on the patio at 4:00 PM and an excellent full breakfast the next morning at 9:00 which was also attended by other guests. This was a truly enjoyable one-night stay in a very high class setting.

This place is better than some 4* hotels I've stayed in. Only 2-3 rooms means a personal service and the swimming pool is practically yours. Breakfast is better than the typical hotel service, For long distance adventure motorcycling this is an ideal stop and your bike will be very secure. The italian mountains and lakes are within an hour away. I'll definitely stay here again when I'm in the Novara region. In fact I'd go out of my way just to stay there again. Very good, Sehr Gut, Tres Bonne, Meraviglioso!

We stayed one night on our way to Liguria. La Bussola is a lovely hotel with many extra's in the room for your comfort. Lovely kingsize bed which was very comfortable. Our daughter had a little comfortable bed of her own. She loved the power shower. Breakfast is good, quite a lot of choices and friendly staff. Location is not that great. Our view was on the carpark of Carrefour. But it was fine as we only stayed for one night and convenient to get some shopping.
