Hotel Diana

“An outstanding family run hotel which cares about their guests.”

This is a family run hotel and they really care about their guests. They go the extra mile in order to make things work for them. I had a late return from a wedding and they took care to ensure that I was able to access my room late at night. Similarly with the electric car charger, I let them know when I wanted to use it and they ensured that it was accessible. The prices were reasonable, the pool lovely and the hotel immaculately cared for with stylish decor and clean rooms. The owner works very hard indeed and has an excellent hotel to show for it.

“A real family hotel - run by the family”

If it was up to me, Diana hotel would have 5 Stars hanging in the entrance.

If it was up to me, Diana hotel would have 5 Stars hanging in the entrance. The level of attention and warmth you receive from the minute you enter the premisses is almost out of this world and is probably only possible due to the fact that you’ve entered a real “family hotel” run by the brother and daughter, but with the help of mother and father who are constantly present and involved. This is getting so rare these days, and that makes all the difference. Whether it’s the superb food, or the quality of the room, or the minute attention to details that you will find everywhere, it’s a “nota dieci” in all aspects. It is great news that even under these extremely difficult times, you can still find such institutions that somehow manage to maintain the course and preserve the service quality that made this part of Italy so famous for. A huge THANK YOU” for making my 3 nights stay memorable. Will be back ....

We stayed as a group of 8 friends at The Hotel Diana for 4 nights in June , the hotel is very comfortable and most importantly , very clean throughout . The rooms were of a good size and the general areas were very pleasant , we all enjoyed sitting on the front verandah in the late evening for a nightcap from the bar. Breakfast was Italian with a good variation , continental plus pastries and cake . The staff were helpful and friendly , some English is spoken , and we were made to feel very welcome . There are some nice artworks throughout the hotel and these added to the ambience . It is easy to see why it gets such good reviews as it is a well run hotel and also offers very good value for money . The only small downside for us is that the restaurant Dinner menu tends to cater for the Italian clientele and is somewhat limited , because of the lack of choice we ate out on all 4 evenings but do not let this put you off ! We found the town a good base for touring the area , it has a fairly good bus service and a good hourly train service. We got the train up into the Alps to Edolo ( Boario is surrounded by mountains) which is a pretty little town about 8 miles from the Swiss border for one day out. We had a relaxing day by bus to Lovere on Lago d'Iseo with a short ride on the lake and on our third day took the train to Pisogne to spend a full day on the Lake . Lago d'Iseo is not as large as the well known lakes but is still 16 miles long and the scenery is lovely with many lovely small towns to stop off at , Iseo itself we like very much. You will need to get the times of trains in advance to spend a full day on the lake. Boario Terme is an easy bus ride from Orio al Serio airport in Bergamo , just catch the airport bus (about 2.30 euros) to the Rail/bus station in Bergamo and get a bus directly from there , it takes about one hour thirty five minutes but is a very pretty trip. Finally , do see the city of Bergamo , the Citta Alta (high city) is a lovely medieval Italian city with many fine buildings and spectacular views and 2 funicular railways to get you up there. We ate in a very good Pizzeria called La Svolta in Boario Terme as most other restaurants in the town were hotels ones offering similar menus , there are a few bars doing a limited menu , I am sure if one had a car there would be a greater choice . All in all , we had a lovely weekend here.
