    Pros +

    • The room was pretty big and the mountain view was nice. Location is amazing — right across the road from the train/bus station.
    • It’s centrally located. Special rated parking spaces at the public garage near by.
    • A great location - a short walk to the lake and downtown, right across from the train station. Many restaurants in a short walking distance. The room had a very comfortable bed, a balcony, a fridge and air conditioning. The staff was friendly and helpful. The patio in the breakfast room was nice.

    Cons -

    • Very loud bathroom fan and not good noise isolation from other rooms/hallway. Some light switches didn't work and overall the room needs some repairs/renovations.
    • Old hotel for quite a high price.
    • The coffee in the breakfast room didn't taste good. Perhaps the coffee machine needs cleaning.

    Great location, right opposite the train station. The balcony was cute and the view is just amazing! There was some noise, but it didn’t bother me that much when we had the balcony door closed. The price is really good for Swiss standard. I would stay here again if I go to Locarno next time.

    The bed was a little low and didn’t feel very comfortable.

    Good location, right next to the train station and close to the lake. Staff very helpful and friendly. Great value for money. Good selection of mini shower gel/soap/tooth brushes. Everything thought of. Good night sleep.

    5ChristianPosted on: 12-31-2024

    staff was friendly, next to the trainstation.

    one of the room was a bit smelly, bed was not so comfortable.

    8DianaPosted on: 12-25-2024

    The location is good. Breakfast was ok. Good value for money.

    The beds are old, not comfortable. Cleaning can improve.

    Everything was meeting my expectations. The receptionists were always very friendly. I arrived far earlier than the check-in time, and I was able to go into my room, as it was ready. I especially liked the cleaning lady, she was very nice and excellent at her job.

    Perfect location. Near everything interesting.

    Information about city tax has been given at the end. Should be information before.

    7ChristinePosted on: 10-7-2024

    Great value for the money

    There was an pervasive smell of stale cigarette smoke in the whole hotel even if guests don’t smoke in the room the fact that there are ashtrays on the little balcony means if people smoke the smell will go right in the room

    The location is excellent for getting around the area being right beside the train station / bus stops. Nice views of the lake from the bedroom (4th floor)... probably even better from the 5th or 6th. The hotel was renovated two years ago so everything is new and clean. Bathrooms are "compact" but well designed and fitted.

    Being right in the centre of everything meant that there was considerable road noise even when the (new) double glazed widows were closed.

    8JanicePosted on: 9-8-2024

    directly across the street from the Locarno train station and bus circle.firm and comfortable beds with a nicely renovated bathroom. the view from thelake view room with balcony was great. good price for the location close to Locarno'slakeside promenade and the Piazza shopping area. perfect for people who havea lot of luggage or first time visitors to get to know the area.

    the lake view rooms with balcony sit directly above the noisy main street and train station. it was hard to sleep without closing the doors. rooms with a mountain view would be much quieter. the juice selections on breakfast buffet were extremely watered down.

    Clean room and toilet, friendly staff, perfect location - walking distance from locarno piazza stazione

    First day my aircon was broken but the next day they moved me to a new room

    7KristenPosted on: 8-28-2024

    Location was excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

    The WiFi is terrible. Basically you may as well count on not having WiFi.

    8JulietPosted on: 8-19-2024

    The location of the hotel is perfect for traveling to different places around Locarno and beyond. Very friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was perfect. We got the Tessino pass, which was very helpful to travel on buses and trains during our stay with no cost.

    7NicolasPosted on: 8-12-2024

    Very friendly staff, large bathroom, fridge, balcony with table and chair.

    Aircon not working during first night. Had to sleep with open window and street was very noisy (traffic). But staff was great and moved us to another room and there was no noise when the window was closed.

    7NiamhPosted on: 8-6-2024

    Our room had clearly just been refurbished, lovely and clean and modern, and the bathroom too. So handy for the train station so it was what we needed for one night.

    It was very hot and no AC - just a loud fan. So couldn't sleep well.

    9EdwardPosted on: 7-8-2024

    Very clean rooms, and basic but decent breakfast. All you need is there. Very affordable for the region.
