I was genuinely impressed by the quality of service at this hotel. Although it's rated as a 3-star, the warm hospitality and welcoming atmosphere made it feel like so much more—it was truly one of the highlights of our trip through Italy and Switzerland. Some standout aspects of our stay included: A complimentary room upgrade upon arrival, offering a breathtaking view A thoughtful welcome with complimentary wine, apples, and snacks in the room Refreshments like tea, infused water, and light snacks always available in the lobby A beautiful garden with a fantastic swimming pool—perfect for unwinding Free public transport tickets provided for the duration of our stay The overall atmosphere was calm, peaceful, and ideal for relaxation. A perfect retreat to recharge!

A beautiful hotel and exceptional lovely lady Christina who welcomed us and treated us like royalty. She couldn't do enough for us. Our room looked new and apparently the rooms were all renovated a year ago. The location is in Piazza Grande, right in the heart of Locarno The hotel has its own lovely restaurant below the hotel on street level. The Railway Station is only a few minutes, walk away and easy to get to.. The lovely harbour is close by as well as the local buses to Ascona.

FAQs about hotels in Locarno

A Sunny Swiss Corner

Locarno is a gorgeous destination on the shores of Lake Maggiore, featuring the warmest climate in Switzerland. Situated at the foot of the Alps, this colourful Swiss city is home to the world-famous Locarno International Film Festival.

Considered to be designed by Leonardo da Vinci, the 13th-century Visconteo Castle houses an important archaeological museum. The historic pilgrimage church of Madonna del Sasso stands proud above the city, overlooking an inviting harbour.

Travellers can stroll around the narrow alleys of the old town, visit one of the antique shops, admire the old churches with Italian Baroque style or dine in one of the traditional restaurants near the main square of Piazza Grande. During the winter months they can also go for skiing or hiking on the Cardada Cimetta Mountain using the cable car.

Nature lovers will have the opportunity to swim in the blue waters of the Lago Maggiore, wander around the aromatic citrus trees and relax in the vineyards of the hills behind Locarno.

The Locarno railway station offers train connections to Zurich, Basel and Lucerne. Check the Booking.com deals and choose from a variety of hotels, apartments and hostels in Locarno.

I think Locarno is going to be one of the new tourist hotspots in the next decade. This spot is beautiful. Amazing lakeside retreat on the alps - the views are not comparable to anything I have ever seen. I loved that it was less crowded than most lakeside European cities I have been to - and think this is a great stop if you are in the Como/Milan area. 10/10 recommend for some relaxation, rejuvenation, and a vacation you won't forget.

Beautiful lakeside location with largely pedestrianized tourist area in old town. Amazing lakeside lido with excellent indoor and outdoor pools, slides and diving boards. Pools have spa features, including powerful water massage jets. You can also swim in the lake.

It's for relaxing, not busy, use the place as a starting point to the different valleys...and if you have time, take the "expresstrain (do not get off for picking flowers...)" for a nice travel to Domodossola. A place not to be missed. Just one recommendation: Go there out of Summerseason (mid June to end August) it will simple be to hot.... Use the Ticino Ticket if you get one from the hotel, it's worth the money.

Just starting to see some tour groups walking around.

Just starting to see some tour groups walking around. So sad to see this as it is no way to see a City and it crowds the streets. They should not allow tour buses or large tour groups in small towns. It destroys the beauty and charm of the area.

Locarno is lovely.

Locarno is lovely. Not so businesslike as Lugano, which is also very nice. Great walkability. Easy access to ferry boats to places on the lake. Good restaurants. Easy access to other towns by train or boat. Views are spectacular. Ticino has a very much Swiss - Italians feel as opposed to the the Geneva lake area which is Avery Swiss - French feel ans the Bern area which is very German influenced.

We stayed from Monday to Friday, travelling by train and that was about the right length of time to explore the immediate area. We enjoyed walks along the promenade, the Camellia Park, the cable car ride and a bus and boat trip to Ascona. We were blessed with beautiful Spring weather in mid April.
