Zacchera hotels are popular for their incomparable hospitality, and they have a long history. In 1873 Francesco Zacchera decided to open the Osteria Milano, one of the first touristic places in Baveno. Then, the Osteria grew up and was transformed into the Locanda Italia, that today has become the Hotel Splendid. In less than two centuries, the passion and the touristic vocation of four generations of Zacchera family have transformed one small osteria in one of the biggest hotels groups on lake Maggiore: four elegant first class hotels located in Baveno and Stresa. The Zacchera hotels are: Hotel Splendid, Hotel Simplon, Grand Hotel Bristol, Grand Hotel Dino, Carl & Residence Do. They are exclusive hotels with suites, health clubs, restaurants and a conference center on lake Maggiore. The Zacchera's hotels staff is always available, highly qualified and very friendly.
