The hotel is in a great location, but the peaple inside are very unpleasant. Locarno is fantastic, but the hotel was not worth the money, Poor service, poor cleaning, very noisy. Pls avoid, try other hotels in the area. more

For the price I would try to find another hotel. The hotel is in a good location downtown and close to buses. But watch out! When they say shared bath, they mean VERY shared. Several rooms are sharing one shower and two toilets to several rooms. The tub didn't drain and was constantly less than clean, due to overuse. Often... more

An alright hotel in my opinion. Really noisy at night because of the pub down below. Outdated rooms as well as the hotel itself. It definitely could use a renovation. As I understand it has been in the family for 3 generations so maybe 3's a charm??? Don't get me wrong it was very clean as I saw housekeeping dusting... more

First of all, too expensive for what you get! The welcome wasn't very nice, we were threated like children, just because we had a little missunderstanding about the parking lot (which was very hard to find anyway...). After we saw our room (80ties style), very small, we really thought about leaving again. The whole hotel is very old style. We... more

The hotel was easy to find and although the room was clean I expected a bit more for the price. The room backed onto a loud alleyway but eventually it quieted down. The biggest drawback was that the receptionist did not speak any English or French which made for a very frustrating check in/out process. more

Don't stay here!!! One of the male hotel staff let himself into our hotel room 4 times within 2 days - the last time I was naked. When we told the owner and demanded that something be done about it the owner said, "he didn't want people like us staying there." What? People who expect privacy within their own hotel... more

We only stayed in Locarno for one night, having driven from Milan and we're surprised at how Lovely Locarno was - we were told to expect something very modern (and expected your usual "big town" as opposed to the charming little ones on the Italian side of the lake) but it was lovely. The old town is gorgeous with lots... more

The hotel clerk spoke mostly Italian, no English and was very loud. The room was small but adequate, I found it hard to sleep due to the outside bar noise. The breakfast was limited and the staff was noisy. The location was great and the price was right. Would not stay here again. more

The hotel is in an absolutely brilliant location - and the lake is beautiful! We were there for the National Swiss Holiday and so were lucky enough to see all the fireworks going off around the lake. But the hotel was just SO disappointing. Our room was small, the heat was stifling and there was no air conditioning. We had... more
