Waterfront location, we booked a room with a balcony, on request staff supplied a bottle of wine so we could sit out and watch the sun go down over the lake. A nice hotel at a reasonable price. Pleasant staff.

A nice medieval small town with much to see and with a very nice, mostly car free town centre. The castle with a local museum, the churches, the ruins of the Roman predecessor town, the lakeside area and harbour are all worth a visit. Extending on both sides of the central sqare, the main street is a pedestrian zone with lots of shops and restaurants. There was even a Ferris wheel at the harbour!
There are public buses (Contral) connecting to Viterbo, Montefiascone and a number of smaller towns, and an early morning connection (Busitalia) to Orvieto. All at bargain prices, tickets can be bought at the kiosk in the town center. Even if it runs early, the bus trip to Orvieto is highly recommendable! It starts from the main square, the others from the bus stop near the post office. Only the connection to Bagnoregio, operated by a local bus contractor, did not work out as the internet schedule was wrong.
There are a number of walking paths in the vicinity - a well marked pilgrim route to Rome goes through Bolsena. We also walked a bit along the lake shore in southern direction; in northern direction, the path ends at the end of the town area.
Boat tours on the Lago di Bolsena are theoretically possible, but there seems to be no organized schedule. In summer, bathing in the lake at the beach should be nice, but at end of April, it was a bit too cold.

an ancient and intersting small typically Italian town.
an ancient and intersting small typically Italian town. Excellent places to eat and drink, friendly people and, of course, a beautiful lake. This is a place to visit for sure. Stay somewhere between 3 and 6 nights to get a proper flavour of the place.Take a walk to the top of the town (steep but worth it) and reward yourself with a glass of wine when you get to the top at one of the many excellent wine bar/delis.
Two restaurants stand out. La Francigena (for its pizza and traditional ham hock called Stinco) and La Tavernetta for its pizza and pasta with fish from the lake. They are inexpensive for the quality of food.
Drive around the lake to see the antique towns of Montefiascone and Capo de Monte. Have a walk along he promenade at Marta. Continue your circuit and have lunch at one of the lakeside restaurants near the ad hoc marina ten minutes west of Bolsena. Its a lovely way to spend a day. At Bolsena there are a number of lakeside bars and restaurants all of which are good value and a great place to unwind. The lake is very safe to swim in. It is very shallow for some distance from shore so is great for children and weak swimmers like me. Very refreshing on a hot day!!

A very charming small italian city with very attractive view of the lake at the sunset. Food in the restaurants is good and value for money is also goo there. The evening life at the square near the lake is live with several nice bars and the seatings really close to the lake so that you can even wash your feet there. Another remarkable cisty Orvietto is also in the short driving distance.

Bolsena is a lakeside small town.
Bolsena is a lakeside small town. We stopped there to relax in mid-October in route to Rome. In the summer I am certain it is bustling with vacationers but there is really nothing to do if you are not boating. The one historic site, the Rocca Fortress, was closed. Dinner in a lakeside restaurant had a lovely sunset view but the food was average.

Lovely old town with great restaurants and quirky shops.
Lovely old town with great restaurants and quirky shops. Nice promenade by the lake. Worth taking a trip round the lake by car and visit to Bagnioreggio a nearby local ancient town accessible only on foot via a bridge over a ravine.

It's one of our favourite towns in Italy.
It's one of our favourite towns in Italy. A tranquil and beautiful place, just perfect. It has an old town centre, a sparkling blue lake with beaches, lots of nice streets to just walk and the most hydrangeas I have ever seen in a single place. Countless facilities to have a good pizza or ice cream let alone beer at the beach.
A surprise chance find: a period hotel en route to the north of Italy. Arrived late in day so didn't appreciate it fully until the next day. Own private parking, nearby electric charging points (for electric cars, very important!) very reasonable price (albeit off-season), huge bedroom and bathroom (rarity these days!), good working wifi, amazing dining room and breakfast. What more could one want?
We liked almost everything in Columbus hotel, we enjoyed its central position and the swimmimg pool in the nearby sister boutique hotel Ludwig. But what we loved the most was the warm and welcoming attitude, nevertheless professional and efficient, of Reception desk personnel Fabiana and Claudia.
Bravissime! Grazie!
Looking forward to coming back again
We have had a wonderful stay there. The host was very-very kind, as we have been pilgrims she offered us leg bath for our tired legs, she offered us special towels to be able to swim in the lake and we also have received some sweets for our next day walk. We are very thankful and satisfied.
Beautifully decorated historic apartment in the quaint old town of Bolsena. The owner was so helpful to us with check in, our bags & walk to the apartment and sightseeing & restaurant suggestions. The view of the lake was stunning. Free parking was a short 5 minute walk away.
Honestly amazing
These new apartments are in great location. Very quiet. Close to the beach also has a pool and the hotel pool. Staff very helpful. Apartment had air conditioning 😌 , very clean and spacious rooms. Parking available. Parking, gates area.
Our stay was 👏
This is our second time staying here, we really loved staying at the property. It is spacious, clean, well equipped and the bed is very comfortable. Great location near the castle in the old town with a great balcony with a spectacular view over Bolsena and the lake.
Loved the proximity to Lago di Bolsena and also to the old town of Bolsena and its amenities - just 5 mins walk to both!
Apartment was quiet and beds & pillows were very comfortable. Shower and newly refurbished bathroom was lovely.
Wonderful location right on the lakefront Boulevard.
Very good breakfast with friendly and attentive wait staff.
Our room had a terrace overlooking the lake. The terrace was very large and furnished and the highlight of our stay.
It is one of the best places we have stayed in. It is right on the Via Francigena. The entire hotel is beautiful, the room is perfect and the breakfast is wonderful. The owners are so helpful and nice, it is a must stay.
The location is superb. if you are looking for a perfect view on the lake, with beautiful sunset, this is your place. Also Bolsena is on a short drive nearby, if you want to go out for a meal.
It's the location that makes this place a winner. The yard has an amazing view of Bolsena lake. It feels quite remote, but was surprisingly easy to find, even though we arrived after dark.
The location is equally convenient to both the lakeshore and the old town. The house itself is very spacious and the kitchen is well-equipped. It was a great stop on the Via Francigena.
