Ottimo. Bellissima esperienza, posizione mozzafiato, staff gentilissimo.
Pros:

Posizione e vista fantastici. In particolare Vista mozzafiato e stanza con due finestre e terrazzino. Fantastico! Davvero una bellissima esperienza, inoltre lo staff gentilissimo. Colazione ottima fronte lago. Non abbiamo usufruito purtroppo del ristorante

Cons:

Le tende alle finestre. La vista era così bella che avrei preferito togliere le tende. I piumoni divisi. Avrei preferito un piumone matrimoniale unito.

La migliore pausa possibile
Pros:

La foresta è un hotel molto accogliente, pulito e curato. La struttura esterna è moderna, ma le camere hanno il fascino degli anni '60. Nessuna TV, nessun ascensore. Solo un posto tranquillo dove riposarsi. La pulizia è encomiabile, gli spazi ben organizzati. Il bagno è essenziale, come il resto della camera. Molto apprezzati il terrazzo e i balconi. I letti singoli sono ad una piazza. L'accoglienza è il punto forte. I gestori sono cordiali, pazienti e sorridenti, cose ormai un po' rare da ritrovarsi. Ci siamo fermati a cena al ristorante e abbiamo potuto apprezzare la ricercatezza dei piatti. Nessun vino alla carta, ma una scelta degna di questo nome. Se a tutta questa valutazione aggiungiamo una vista spettacolare sul lago d'Iseo, consiglio la permanenza presso l'hotel. A presto rivedersi.

P.S.: assolutamente ingiustificata e inappropriata una stella...

Cons:

Unico punto un po' dolente la colazione. La scelta non è molta, anche se apprezzata la genuinità dei prodotti. Inserirei latte caldo e freddo, yogurt e biscotti.

Not bad, but too many downsides.
Pros:

A decent, family-run hotel with a nice atmosphere and beautiful views. It’s clean, and the breakfast is small but fresh and good. However, there are quite a few drawbacks that are worth mentioning.

Cons:

It started with the parking. The hotel recommended a parking lot, but when we arrived, we were told it was only available with a reservation and there were no spots left at all. We spent a long time driving around searching for something, but there were simply no parking spaces. In the end, we managed to persuade an employee to let us park on the grass.

After that, in the heat, we had to carry all our luggage and belongings to the ferry and then walk quite a distance to the hotel. Be prepared for this – it’s not close at all, and in hot weather it’s exhausting.

The hotel itself is very old. I understand it has history, but it feels very old, and so do the rooms. The water pressure in the shower was very weak, making it difficult to wash properly. Our room looked out onto someone’s backyard, with only a partial lake view on the side. The light in the bathroom kept going on and off, flickering and sometimes not working at all.

There really isn’t much to do on the island. The next day we went to Iseo, and that turned out to be an excellent decision.

Overall, this hotel is fine if you just need a relatively inexpensive place to sleep. However, some things felt overpriced: we had an espresso and a double espresso on old sofas at the entrance (around €4.50), and one scoop of ice cream (!?) which they charged us €9 for – extremely expensive in my opinion. To make matters worse, the woman who served the ice cream kept coughing and sneezing, which made the whole experience quite unpleasant.

Relaks gwarantowany
Pros:

Przemiły i uśmiechnięty personel, który dba o komfort gości. Bardzo bogate, świeże i smaczne śniadania, które zjada się w pięknym ogrodzie z cudownym widokiem na jezioro. Czyste pokoje - były codziennie sprzątane. Wspaniały widok z balkonu. W kilka minut można dojść do promu, co daje duże możliwości do zwiedzania innych miejscowości lub połączenia z lotniskiem.
