Milan Speranza au Lac

"Well placed hotel on the lakeside and within spitting distance of all the ferries. Compact but more than adequate single room kept well serviced with good toiletries. Eclectic decor - large restaurantcatering mainly for groups but run like a well oiled machine - dinner acceptable and excellent breakfast"

"Firmly in the hands of predominantly English group tour-operators ( who mostly are grateful customers and rarely speak-up), the hotel personnel in the restaurant has forgotten to smile, the head-waiters enjoy their role as being boss and like to play jokes but have no eye for the needs of their guests who sit in front of them. Breakfast for groups is minimalistic, dinner boring and prepared without any delicatesse. The hotel is split between the Speranza and adjacent the Au Lac. The Milan Speranza rooms certainly are not 4 star standard. The restaurant of the Au Lac conveys the appearance of style ,however this is only on the surface. See comments above. In summary: really nothing to write home about and if in Alassio as non-group-tourist, just book somewhere else...."

"The Hotel Milan Speranza Au Lac is a 4 star hotel located by the lake boulevard. The hotel is a reliable choice in the slightly lower end of 4 star hotels. We had a nice two night stay at the hotel. The room and the bathroom were as expected but we were slightly disappointed as there was no balcony and the view was to the building on the opposite side of the street. The breakfast was of good standard and contained everything you can expect. Also the service at breakfast was of unusually high standard. We also had one dinner at the hotel and were pleased with both the food and especially the service, which was excellent. We would happily stay there again."
