"I was greeted warmly at the front desk and advised that I had received a room upgrade! Our room was clean and spacious with a fridge and a small balcony. The bed was very comfortable too. Self-parking was easy with access to the hotel via a lift. We were centrally located in Locarno and close to the waterfront walkway which made for a pleasant evening walk. We were offered a 10% off coupon for breakfast but did not end up using it. Friendly hotel - we would definitely stay there again!"

"The hotel is outstanding and view from balcony is wonderful. Staffs are very friendly and kind. We planned to stay one day but extended one more day. Hotel is just a little bit outdated but well maintained. Food in restaurant was great too. Definitely want to stay there if we revisit Italy."

"The room was clean, modern and the electronic blackout shutters were appreciated. Check in and issue of electronic room keys was straightforward. The bistro downstairs was friendly and lively. It would be useful for the hotel to provide instructions on the lighting as the system was not very intuitive. The safe did not work - a small inconvenience. "

"We were very fortunate to have a room in the front with a wonderful lake view. The hotel is comfortable older property, but the room and bathroom were large and spotless. Location is excellent, right next to the bus stop close to the town. Restaurant is excellent. Only negative is the absence of a grab bar in the bathtub/shower."

"Great area, great hotel"

"We choose this property because it was close to the train station. It was plain and without frills or amenities but the air conditioning worked great and the rooms were cleaned. Staff said we qualified for a free city bus pass and said they would email it but never did."

"Wenn wir wieder in Ascona sind, werden wir wieder hier buchen! 👍👍"

"Lovely old world feel with sitting rooms and china/silver at breakfast. Large pool. Great location! Staff extremely helpful and fabulous breakfast. Room updated well. Ours had a room with a view of the lake."

"Great hotel right across from the train station. Nice modern room with comfortable bed and excellent sound proofing (my room faced the street but was completely quiet). Helpful staff and very good WiFi."

"Unschlagbar gut sind die großen Balkone zum See mit Sonne von 10:00-19:00. Tolle zentrale Lage. Leckeres, reichhaltiges Frühstück. Und insbesondere das freundliche und jederzeit hilfsbereite Personal machen den Aufenthalt traumhaft schön. Vielen lieben Dank!"

"Ruhig gelegene und preiswerte Unterkunft, freundliches Personal, Frühstück war ausreichend"

"Rooms were clean and well maintained. Staff were very kind and helpful. Be aware of the road if you’re traveling from Lugano - the hotel is located up on the mountain and roads were pretty tight and steep curved turns for about 20-25 minutes."
