The Grand Hotel Majestic is a historic luxury hotel located in Verbania, on the shores of Lake Maggiore, in Italy.
History
Built in just fourteen months,[1] the hotel was opened in 1870 as the Grand Hotel Pallanza on the initiative of George Seyschab,[1][2] who had already taken part in the founding of the Grand Hotel des Iles Borromées in Stresa ten years earlier.[2] The modern and newly built hotel, conceived to welcome an elite international clientele, immediately became a landmark of luxury hospitality on the Piedmontese side of Lake Maggiore.
The property was purchased in 1979 by Silvano Zuccari, an entrepreneur in the gas industry.[3]
Description
The building is located on a promontory in the village of Pallanza facing the Isolino di San Giovanni.
