FAQs about hotels in Locarno








A Sunny Swiss Corner

Locarno is a gorgeous destination on the shores of Lake Maggiore, featuring the warmest climate in Switzerland. Situated at the foot of the Alps, this colourful Swiss city is home to the world-famous Locarno International Film Festival.

Considered to be designed by Leonardo da Vinci, the 13th-century Visconteo Castle houses an important archaeological museum. The historic pilgrimage church of Madonna del Sasso stands proud above the city, overlooking an inviting harbour.

Travellers can stroll around the narrow alleys of the old town, visit one of the antique shops, admire the old churches with Italian Baroque style or dine in one of the traditional restaurants near the main square of Piazza Grande. During the winter months they can also go for skiing or hiking on the Cardada Cimetta Mountain using the cable car.

Nature lovers will have the opportunity to swim in the blue waters of the Lago Maggiore, wander around the aromatic citrus trees and relax in the vineyards of the hills behind Locarno.

The Locarno railway station offers train connections to Zurich, Basel and Lucerne. Check the Booking.com deals and choose from a variety of hotels, apartments and hostels in Locarno.

    Very enjoyable.

    Very enjoyable. Visconteo Castle was interesting and the funicular to Madonna del Sasso was fun. Good pizza at the Ristorante Funicolare. Be sure to take the tram further up to Cardada. The views were well worth the trip!

    A small, yet beautiful city on the Swiss part of Lago Maggiore which, for those who are on a circuit, is a must-come-to in order to visit Sacro Monte Madonna del Sasso. A jewel with an amazing view over the city and the lake, accessible both by foot or by the funicular (lovely).

    Awesome small town on the shore of Lago Maggiore.

    Awesome small town on the shore of Lago Maggiore. Clean, all buildings and streets are perfectly maintained. Very green, extremely picturesque - placed between Alps slopes and lake shores , with palms and lot of flowers growing around. Small but beautiful Old town, tasteful food. Just a small heaven on Earth, it still is expensive.

    Locarno was fantastic but the funicular operator put me off. He refused to speak and just pointed to tickets and signs when asked questions. Nobody was there and his vibe was we we're putting him out.

    Location was breathtaking, view from our balcony to the lake was the highlight of the trip. The room was large and comfortable including a small loveseat sofa (fits 2 snuggly) and a separate chair. Breakfast was very good. The walk to the main plaza was just a few minutes away downhill. Staff was very professional and willing to help on any questions we had! Parking is inside the hotel itself, it's a separate charge per day. Would recommend without hesitation, would love to be back soon!

    The hotel is situated near the train station which is very convient. The room was spacious, with comfy bed, nice balcony and coffee-tea facilities. You have mini bar available for extra charge. Breakfast was very rich and tasty. Staff of the hotel should get extra credits for their work - Mr Norbert at the reception was extremly helpful, he explained where to go, provided additional information upon my questions - great hospitality and customer approach. I fully recommend to stay here.

    Every aspect of our stay was excellent: the cozy atmosphere, the well-sized room with plenty of sunlight, the breathtaking view of the lake, the delicious breakfast, and the convenient location. But the best of all was the host, Andrea, the nicest person we met in over a year of living in Switzerland. He went out of his way to make the one night we spent in Locarno memorable, even showing us around on his tuk-tuk and dropping us off at the train station at the end of our stay.
