Pros +
- Great view of the lake from 2nd floor room. Great location. Super breakfast. Quiet. Air conditioning. Close to bus stop, Coop, boat terminal. Relaxing stay, with opportunity for interesting nearby excursions.
- Nice, clean room though it was rather small. Nice breakfast with good coffee. Good location.
- Great location and decent breakfast
Cons -
- Instructions for how to get to off-site hotel parking were confusing. Parking spaces were very close together, though typical of Swiss parking lots in general. Weather in early July was generally very hot during the day.
- No shampoo or conditioner
- I was at first a little disappointed at the small size of the room, given that the images of the room I thought I booked were of a much larger room. But it ended up being ok because the view made up for it all.

I really appreciated how clean the room was. The bed was comfortable, and the shower head facilitated a wonderful shower experience. But I most thrilled by the fact that the breakfast buffet and restaurant offered gluten-free options - sometimes those are exceedingly hard to find.

My room had windows on 2 sides overlooking the lake and the promenade. It had a small balcony with a table and 2 small chairs overlooking the lake and the mountains. The room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. It was on the first floor directly above a restaurant terrace at the 'busy' end of the promenade very close to the charming small streets of Ascona. I enjoyed hearing the hustle and bustle outside during the evening and it was quiet at night. The reception staff were welcoming and helpful and there was a choice of juices/bread/croissant/meat/cheese and eggs for breakfast. I would definitely stay here again.
Spotlessly clean, very good food, amazing views and location, and good service.
No restaurant on a Monday ? Decor a bit odd in places.
a bit of a time warp, but absolutely spotless, beautiful people, perfect location
nothing really
Very comfortable & clean
Bar closed too early, would have liked a space to sit and chill with a drink!
The location is wonderful, it’s right on the lake . The hotel is very comfortable and the staff friendly and helpful.The breakfasts were excellent .
The view from the room is amazing. The coffee for breakfast was also good barista quality.
The breakfast quality was good but maybe needs little more additions to have more choices. Yet was Good!
Fabulous location. Views from the balconies are stunning. Breakfast buffet is adequate. The fresh orange juice machine was lovely. The staff are pleasant and helpful. The rooms very spotlessly clean. Comfortable beds.
The TV channels are very limited in terms of languages. Not a big issue for us but surprising in a country with great cable TV.
We had room 202 which had a small but perfectly enjoyable balcony overlooking the lake. The rest of the room was laid out and equipped brilliantly and had one of the best bathrooms of our entire trip. Great lighting and plenty of power outlets. All staff were super helpful with every request and especially so with our limited italian! Breakfasts were also very good with plenty of choices. Coffees were great too.
Nothing really. The location and parking are a compromise due to the lakeside location and traffic limitations so those driving with large suitcases may struggle.
The balcony, the view and great staff
the location and how clean it was
the staff of the breakfast the last morning
The toom was very nicely nade up and extremely clean. Breakfast was outstanding and very good and friendly service. The reception was very flexible with arrival times and very helpful with our questions and providing great advice. Of course, outstanding location on the lake promenade in Ascona.
The location and view. The staff were lovely!
It’s extremely basic.
Superb location on the lake, beautiful view. Friendly service and great breakfast!
Location was perfect - weather didn't co-operate! Accomodation and restaurant combined for a very comfortable stay

Very welcoming staff and wonderful view with balcony overlooking the lake.
