Very helpful staff, we have recommended the hotel to our daughter. Good location, & bus stop out the front. A buffer breakfast was included, & it offered a nice variety of options.

Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr zentral, man erreicht es sowohl mit der Bahn ( bis Locarno ), und dann mit den Öffis ( Bus 1 Rtg. Gordola Centro Professionale, Aussteigen : Via Sociale, das Hotel liegt genau schräg gegenüber. ), als auch mit dem Auto. Von Locarno aus liegt es in Muralto auf der linken Seite, kurz bevor man nach Minusio herein fährt. Parkplätze sind ausreichend vorhanden. Für den Preis wird ein top ausgestattetes Zimmer, sowie ein Frühstück geboten, das keine Wünsche offen lässt. Auch der Service ist super, sowohl der Inhaber selbst, sowie auch das Serviceteam lesen einem fast jeden Wunsch von den Augen ab, um den Aufenthalt so angenehm, wie auch erholsam, wie nur irgend möglich zu gestalten. Die Buchung beinhalt immer auch das Ticino - Ticket, mit dem während des gesamten Aufenthalts im Hotel die Öffis im Tessin ( 2. Kl., Busse, sowie wie alle Regionalbahnen, ! nicht jedoch die gelben Überlandbusse, sowie ebenfalls nicht die Fernzüge der SBB ! ) kostenfrei genutzt werden können. Zudem gewährt das Ticket zum Teil großzügige Ermäßigungen bei Eintritten, und diversen anderen Angeboten. Man bekommt es entweder direkt im Hotel beim Check - In automatisch, oder kann es sich, nachdem man online eingecheckt hat, auch über einen Link ganz einfach online als QR - Code auf's Handy / Smart - / iPhone herunter laden.

A very cordial and warmly run hotel. Small but nice with staff who read every wish from your lips. Really highly recommended! A 10-minute walk from the centre. There is a bus stop directly in front of the hotel. And not far from good shopping facilities (Denner and Migros).

Een klassiek niet al te groot hotel met een harmonieuze inrichting met aandacht voor detail. Het personeel is vriendelijk en meertalig, de receptie is tot 19 uur bezet. Onze kamer was niet groot, maar wel mooi ingericht met ook een koffie-apparaat en een minibar. De badkamer was heel proper met ook met goede materialen afgewerkt. Het hotel zit op een kwartiertje lopen van het station, maar de stadsbus stopt vlakbij en is gratis met de door het hotel per email verstrekte my tricino-pas op de gsm. Met deze pas reis je gratis in de regio en krijg je korting op diverse attracties. Wij waren er maar één nacht maar zouden zó opnieuw boeken als we daar in de buurt komen, een aanrader.

Fine rom- dårlig utvalg til frokost

Vi booket og ankom seint. Hyggelig mann på telefonen som guidet oss til nøkkelskap og vi fikk sjekket inn på egen hand. Frokosten derimot var ikke noe særlig. Vi kom ned kl 09 og det var tomt for både granola og pålegg. Ikke noe grønt (som agurk, paprika, salat osv) og vi måtte spørre etter pålegg til rundstykkene. Veldig hyggelig personale og service, men når frokosten er åpen til kl 10 kan det ikke være tomt kl 09. Nespresso kaffemaskin. så ikke noe særlig.

Wir waren im Dezember in diesem Hotel für 2 Nächte. Leider haben wir bei der Buchung nicht richtig aufgepasst, denn die günstigen Zimmer haben ein Gemeinschafts Badezimmer. Das Hotel ist sauber und Stilvoll eingerichtet. Zur Stadt ist es nicht weit. Es gibt eine Gästekarte für den Bereich Tessin was uns sehr gefallen hat. Damit kann man Kostenlos bus und Bahn fahren. Das Frühstück war ok, nichts besonderes. Für die gekochten Eier müsste eine bessere Lösung gefunden werden da jeder einfach seine Eier in den Eier Kocher rein packt und andere Leute dann aus versehen deine Eier raus nehmen und dann beim pellen feststellen, dass es noch Roh ist. 😅 Naja. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, spricht aber leider so gut wie kaum deutsch (oder sie wollen nicht). War uns auch nicht so bewusst, dass der Karton Tessin fast schon Italien ist.
