The location was good. It was close to the train station, it was not too far nor complicated to find a hotel even though we had to take a bus to get there. The breakfast also good. Everything was filled with the Swiss products and fresh breads. The room and other facilities were clean and neat. Especially, the staffs were super nice and gentle. They directly helped us to get the ticino ticket when we checked in. And everytime we went to the receiption, they greeted us with gentle smile. There was a small mistake where the requested service was not properly completed, although it didn’t cause us any major inconvenience, we appreciated that it was not overlooked and that they responded with an apology and appropriate action. It was something that could have easily been overlooked, but I was impressed by the attentiveness in remembering and taking care of it. If I go to Locarno, I would stay again in this hotel.

“I enjoyed my time at this hotel, with its ideal location and lovely amenities.”
The location is absolutely ideal - just 5 minutes from the nearest bus station, and within a leisurely 20-minute walk to the city center and lake. It's also perfectly situated for exploring the stunning Verzasca attractions or Maggia valley. The hotel itself offers many lovely touches, including a refreshing pool area with comfortable sunbeds where you can unwind. My room was spotless and well-appointed, featuring air conditioning that worked flawlessly. All appliances were in good working order, making my stay enjoyable. The personal at the front office was very kind. I felt welcome and comfortable throughout my visit.
