5.8/10

The hotel is situated in the very center of Locarno, which is excellent for exploring the area. However, the room was disappointing with a dark cubby hole attic space instead of the double room booked. The service was helpful but could be more attentive to guests. The dining options were nice but a bit expensive. The location is great, only a ten-minute walk from the train station and lake, with good value for money.

Rooms
5.0
The room had a skylight instead of a window and was uncomfortably warm inside. An aircon would be a necessary addition, as the electric fan provided was not sufficient. The room layout with four single beds in a small attic space was not as expected.
Service
6.0
The service was acceptable, but the check-in process was disorganized with delays. While the staff was helpful, I felt a bit overlooked during my stay.
Location
7.0
The location is good, just a short walk from the train station and lake, at the end of the main square in Locarno. However, the surroundings could get noisy and crowded, especially with security workers present.
Dining
5.0
The buffet dining experience offered a variety of food but was a bit overpriced. The restaurant staff seemed unenthusiastic and had trouble with discounts for hotel guests.
Facilities
The hotel had basic facilities but lacked any standout amenities. Some areas could use improvement.

The hotel is situated in a very beautiful square, offering clean and well-decorated rooms with windows. The service was apologetic but efficient, although the building appearance was not the most inspiring. The location is excellent for the Locarno Film Festival, right in the heart with vintage charm. Dining was decent for a 3-star hotel. Overall, a good value for the money with some room for improvement.

My stay at the hotel was pretty good overall. The rooms were smaller than expected but very clean and nicely decorated. The service was excellent; they even offered us a shower after a long bike ride post-check-out. The location couldn't be better; just steps away from the festival entrance. The dining experience was average, nothing exceptional but not bad either.
