• Surrounded by staggeringly beautiful gardens, and with breathtaking views of the distant mountains and shimmering Lake Maggiore, the Grand Hotel Majestic enjoys a uniquely privileged location – in fact, it is quite simply idyllic. Occupying a superbly elegant building from the 1870s, constructed on a promontory into the lake, almost every room, every terrace and every balcony has a stunning view. Almost certainly it was these enchanting views that captured the hearts of Toscanini and Debussy, both regular visitors. After arriving at the grand entrance hall, you ascend through the tiers of colonnades, until you reach the rooms: here you are greeted by the very last word in refined, tasteful classical decoration, with rich fabrics and original prints, exquisite parquet floors and stately windows. The emphasis throughout is on gracious living and relaxation, while the service is attentive, and every bit as elegant and charming as the hotel itself.

• The Grand Hotel Majestic offers a wide range of rooms and suites. All have air-conditioning, and many have bathrooms decorated in marble. The restaurants offer the very finest cuisine using local ingredients, prepared under the watchful eye of Chef Cesare Franzoni. Aside from the gastronomic feast, the restaurant also offers wonderful views of the garden and lake. For lighter refreshment or a glass of wine head for the bar, which has a panoramic terrace. The gardens are one of the chief delights of this hotel, and they make the perfect place to stroll, admiring the wonderful trees and flowers that bloom in the area's benign microclimate. Tucked away in the garden you will also find a solarium and a tennis court, while elsewhere in the grounds you will find the hotel's own private beach and jetty. Finally, if you're here to indulge a little, then head for the wellness centre with its beautiful indoor swimming pool, reinvigorating sauna, and a state-of-the-art gym, or pamper yourself with a treatment from the comprehensive list.

• While the Grand Hotel Majestic may feel gloriously isolated from the outside world, in fact it is just 5 minutes' walk from the centre of Verbania, where you will find shops, bars and restaurants. It is also just 45 minutes' drive from Milan Malpensa International Airport.
