Detailed Reviews
The hotel is in a great location for literally everything you would want to see in Locarno. The staff are friendly, and try their best to cater for guests' needs. The breakfast buffet is good.
You should book a room with a balcony, as the non-balcony rooms are a bit claustrophobic and not the nicest.
The hotel is quite busy, with a number of groups staying there when we were there.
Note that there is only a limited amount of free parking available, and the other parking is CHF 12/night.

To spend 4 days in the area we chose this hotel because its location is ideal 3 minutes from the train station, 5 minutes from the lake and 10 minutes from the main square.
The room chosen with a beautiful balcony was located on the 4th floor and overlooked the lake.
The room was quite large and the bathroom brand new.
Breakfast was hearty and varied with savoury and sweet products.
The reserved covered parking was very accessible.
It was a very good choice.

The bad experience started with the receptionist who doesn’t know her job, she asked us to pick up the extra bed from the storage since she feels tired and not in the mood; than our booking included the parking which was not available once checkin, adding to that their manager who was angry because we claimed for our connected room a request which was not respected.
As a summary of their unprofessional behavior and race discrimination; he entered our room without permission and when we went to pick up our luggage from the car we were shocked that he canceled our reservation with an excuse of non show.
He asked us to raise a claim to booking.com platform used for reservation and after all he refused to refund our money.
So disappointing this is not the Swiss hospitality, we wonder how they can have the permit to open.

Good location near the train station, a bit of an uphill walk. Bus stop in front of the house.
The rooms are clean, practically furnished and can be completely darkened.
The covered parking spaces cost CHF 18.-/night and are very narrow even for slim people.
As long-time regular guests, we missed the magazines this time. We found the breakfast to be very plentiful for a 3-star hotel, although the butter was replaced with Lätta.

We chose this hotel for its convenient location, close to the station. It was a wise decision because we had a great time. The courtesy in the reception, both during the Telephone Reservation and on our arrival on site, both during our stay have impressed us favorably. To this must be added the tranquility of the location and rooms, the abundance and variety of breakfast, the professionalism of the staff. It's definitely advisable. As is a visit to the characteristic old town of Locarno: a gem!

Well located hotel, clean and comfortable rooms. Beautiful view of the lake from the balcony, possibility of parking in their private car park for an additional fee (normal). So far everything is ok.
But the quality of the breakfast is clearly not up to par with the establishment. Certainly a change has been made at this level because I read glowing comments on this breakfast exclusively composed of industrial and ultra-processed products.

As always...when I happen to pass through Locarno...I stay here...and as always I feel very comfortable...unfortunately I have never tried the rooms...as they say...on the upper floors. ..which I feel is magnified... I hope sooner or later for an upgrade... but I've always found myself comfortable even on the first floor... cleanliness, comfort, attention and covered garage... that's enough for me and more... I'll write when I haven't had breakfast yet...but I already know that I won't be disappointed...and now a little note...very little...if I leave the new umbrella at the reception...I would like to find it when I need it and not having to wait for someone to bring it back...they promptly solved the problem with another umbrella.
..but...I care about my things... thanks anyway and see you soon for the upgrade
