The history of Hotel San Rocco starts over 400 years ago. Looking over the shores of the magical Piedmontese Lake Orta, in the pedestrian village of Orta San Giulio and bounded by the ancient walls of a monastery, this building, an enclosed convent for nearly 150 years, became officially a hotel in 1960.

Afterwards Villa Gippini was added to the original structure. This has made Hotel San Rocco the most prestigious reception complex on the Lake Orta area.

Now, it is a four star hotel with 80 rooms.
