Novarello Hotel Resort & Spa - Novara
An indoor pool and spa resort near Novara
About this hotel
Novarello Hotel Resort & Spa is a conference-centre resort near Novara built around a vast sports complex, with an indoor pool, hot tub, spa, fitness centre and restaurant all on site, close to Ristorante Pizzeria Bar Novarello. That indoor pool matters on a cooler shoulder-season visit when Ondaland's outdoor slides aren't the only plan, giving families a genuine backup for a rainy Piedmont afternoon. Free breakfast, Wi-Fi and parking are included, alongside an airport shuttle and full-service laundry. It's a drive from Ondaland, positioning it as a fuller resort base for a longer or off-season trip. The business-centre and conference facilities also make it workable for a family combining a work trip with a water park visit for the kids.
- Indoor pool and spa
- Vast sports complex
- Airport shuttle
Our take
This resort suits families wanting an indoor pool as a genuine backup to Ondaland's outdoor slides, plus a fuller spa and sports complex than any other option on this list. It's the furthest from the park itself, so it suits a rental-car trip more than a walk-in stay. Families wanting proximity above facility scale should look toward Vicolungo instead.
- ✓Use the indoor pool as a rainy-day backup plan if Ondaland's outdoor slides are a washout.
- ✓Book the airport shuttle in advance if flying into Malpensa without a rental car.
- ✓Confirm pet-friendly room details ahead of arrival if travelling with a dog.

Why guests love itWe booked this for a shoulder-season trip when we weren't sure the weather would hold for Ondaland's outdoor pools, and the indoor pool and spa here turned out to be exactly the backup plan we needed on our one rainy day. The kids still got their full water time even without the park, and the airport shuttle made arrival simple. It's a drive out to Ondaland from the resort, but the facilities more than made up for it on the trip.
