Located 20 metres from the shores of Lake Maggiore in Minusio, Osteria La Riva offers a room with a balcony and lake views. The restaurant serves traditional and international cuisine.

The room also features a spacious bathroom and a sofa, and is fitted with wooden floors.

Just AMAZING. The room had everything you need. It was very comfortable with a very big TV, with Tea making possibilities, minibar. The bed was very comfortable. We had a small balcony looking at the lake. Having breakfast in the morning and enjoying your coffee directly on the lake. It was like a dream. The personel was very friendly and helpful and made everything possible to have a great stay there. We even got a bottle of wine as a small present when we were leaving. Parking space is organised and near by and for free. Internet was working perfectly. The city center was 20 min walking distance. There was a delicious restaurant just under the room. (which can be a bit loud for some people. for us it was not an issue). THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT STAY. We will come back :)

Featuring a garden and views of mountain, Villa by @ Home Hotel Locarno is a guest house situated in a historic building in Locarno, 1.2 km from Piazza Grande Locarno. The property features garden and inner courtyard views, and is 5.9 km from Golfclub Patriziale Ascona. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with a picnic area.

A dream villa! I just stayed overnight in the deluxe suite for 3 people in this wonderful villa. The directions received on the day of arrival were very clear. Even a video on how to open the safebox and then the doors left no doubt. I could recognize the building right away. It is an impeccably renovated and upscale privat villa from the last century. High ceilings and blackout curtains. The suite with a huge terrace with beautiful views made us feel we were in an exclusive place. The sofa bed for the third person was comfortable and large even if I wouldn't consider it suitable for 2 adults. Too bad we only stayed one night. We will gladly keep the address for a future stay. We found the price fair and was over 300 francs. We did not have breakfast at the hotel because we left early but there would be that option as well

Charming Room in the heart of Locarno, a property with a terrace, is set in Locarno, 4.8 km from Golfclub Patriziale Ascona, 41 km from Lugano Station, as well as 43 km from Exhibition Center Lugano. The Swiss Miniatur is within 48 km of the guest house. The property is non-smoking and is situated 300 metres from Piazza Grande Locarno.

Excellent location, since we went for running half-marathon Ascona-Locarno, we needed a place near Piazza Grande in the center of Locarno. This small appartment was 250 meters from Piazza Grande, just perfect. Still, it was silent at night, good beds, we slept great. We expected just a room, but we also got a kitchenette and a lot of space. 600 meters from Train station, so we easily reached it by walking. Friendly personnel, all was great.

    Nanda and her husband are such lovely hosts! They gave us tips on what to do around and they were so kind and helpful. The room is very cozy and comfortable. You have for yourself a little garden with a table and two chairs, a little heaven! The location is between Locarno and Ascona. It's perfect if you wanna visit both. Highly recommend this!
